Vehicle will not start. This is the fourth incident where vehicle will not start. It has had the software update, battery and voltage regulator replaced in the summer of 2025. In Aug of 2025, vehicle will not start with jump or use of 12v battery in vehicle.
Car is a Sonata Hybrid Limited equipped with a solar roof which charges the hybrid battery. Vehicle began to cut off battery power while parked, requiring the use of a factory equipped 12V override switch in March 2025 after approximately 3.5 years of ownership. This occurred multiple times, often when the car was parked in the sun but independent of how long it had been driven prior or how long it had sat without being started. Evaluated by two Hyundai dealers; second dealer found a fault in the "solar DCDC converter" as well as the hybrid battery bulging. Battery module replaced. Unclear if this resolves the issue or it will recur again. Am speaking to Hyundai regarding battery warranty extension as vehicle had 88000 miles on it at the time of the issue starting. Online fora (e.g., Reddit, Facebook) note other customers who have had similar problems with similar fixes. - [XXX] - [XXX] - [XXX] - one individual in this thread had complete power loss while driving down the highway This issue potentially risks stranding customers, and if the hybrid battery continues to bulge increases the risk of fire which could lead to property damage, personal injury, or death.

Purchased vehicle on March 5, 2025 from a dealer. At the time it had approximately 20,000 miles. Within days of purchase, the car would not start even after pushing the battery reset button. Eventually, it would restart, but the time it took was considerable. Took the car to the Hyundai dealer near me and discovered that it had been with them for two months prior to purchase for the same problem. They have replaced the 12 V battery and possibly the hybrid battery, but now after owning it for about six weeks, it is giving me a message that there is a problem with the hybrid system and I should stop driving immediately. It is now back at the dealer. They can’t seem to duplicate the problem and I don’t feel safe driving the car because I don’t know if and when I’m going to get to my destination.
My engine coolant level keeps going down but no leaks evident also heavy white smoke coming out from the exhaust. Finally engine overheated.
My vehicle is in the shop now and will be due to 12volt battery charging system failure. I have taken the vehicle to the shop 4 times now because vehicle will not start unless you hit the reset 12volt button. The dealership told me that they were surprised that I was able to start the vehicle. I was told that it is the NHTSA Campaign # 24V868000. This vehicle is not included in this campaign number but it should be. Hyundai needs to include this make and model to the recall so other drivers don't have the same issue and so that they don't find themselves stranded.
When outside temperature drops, car starts in morning with several warning lights illuminated, indicating fault with several safety systems including airbags, brake, power steering, front camera, blind-spot collision warning system, traction control and smart cruise control. Car key fobs have consistently failed, disabling access to the vehicle. The vehicles 12V reset recently failed which required Hyundai Roadside Assistance (10/25/24). According to BlueLink application, cars 12V battery has been reset dozens of times, which is information visible to the service centers. However, at several past service appointments it has been verbally stated that "problem can not be replicated" and was not documented. Problem was confirmed by Hyundai service center on March 13, 2024. Problem was not resolved at the time of service, vehicle was returned back without resolution. With temperatures now dropping at night, said issues are occurring daily with warning indicators for failing safety systems illuminating upon cold start and electrical system failing daily.
The car has completely lost power. Can not enter. Have to use the mechanical/physical key on the fob. Its been happeneing 7-8 times in the last year. It has a battery reset button we reset it from the dash which has a dedicated button just for this?
I bought my 2022 Hybrid Sonata in the summer of 2022. I drove it down to the beach (8 hour drive) about a week after purchasing the vehicle so at that time there were less than 100 miles on the car. We didn't use the vehicle for the week we were at the beach and when we tried to unlock the car to load our bags, the key would not unlock the car and we couldn't get in. We had to manually unlock the doors and call roadside assistance because the Battery reset button would not jumpstart the car. I was assured that there was no issue with the car by my local Hyundai dealership and that this was "normal." I have had the car die on me countless times while it sits idle in my driveway if I don't start it at least every other day. On August 8th 2024, my car was dead and I was able to jump it with the Battery Reset button. The next day, it was dead again. Upon jumping it for the second time in 24 hours, the check engine light came on. I took the car to the dealership to run diagnostics and the hybrid battery has failed their tests. Now I am waiting on my car with a loaner vehicle that I cannot drive out of state. I was told by customer service that they have had this problem with several other customers and some had to wait TWO YEARS for their battery to arrive and car repaired.
I brought my car in for electronic update recall. No issues before service. After service, dealer tells me that my car in inoperable and the 12v Aux battery needs to be replaced. The battery was swollen. There were no indication before bringing the car in for recall that there was a battery issue. Possible fire hazard.
The car just dies can't open the car must use the key in the fob.Hyundai dealership says it's a k own issue They told me I need to drive the car more When I can get into the car. There is a battery reset button that starts the car. Numerous online owners have the same problem
When I have my car parked without starting for 3 or more days, I get a alert that my 12vdc battery is low. When I get back to my car, I have to use the physical key to unlock and push the 12 dcv button to jump start the system. The cover over the door latch has to be taking off with the key to access it and is very hard to remove. This is a safety issue, especially for someone who may have a disability. It tool me 15 minutes to remove the cover because I had to pry it off with breaking it. I got to the point of just pulling it off before I leave home and putting the cover in glovebox because I park at the airport for work trips. These has happened 3 times. If these is the case, hyundai needs to make the Manuel key access accessible.
1. Solar panel roof exploded without any impact. 2. Vehicle completely shuts down when the solar panel over charges the battery.
