What owners wrote
I was admitted into the hospital, where I had surgery and was told I had a hemorrhagic stroke. October 2015, I had 2 more strokes and surgeries. I never had a history of strokes, and was wondering could this be a part of an environmental issue with the chemical exposure from the new vehicle? Any useful information would be greatly appreciate.
On july 12,2016 I was pulling into a parking spot at the bank. My foot was on the brake as I entered the space. My car then seemed to make a loud noise like the engine was revering ups it then shot forward like a rocket. It felt someone had smashed behind me! Luckily there were pillars in front of the bank which prevented my car from crashing in the bank. I have found several complaints with the 2015 hyundai sonatas doing this however there is no recall. Cost of damage was $9,051.
