| 2011 | POWER TRAIN | ONE MORNING WHEN GETTING READY TO GO TO WORK, I TRIED TO START MY 2011 SONATA. I PRESSED ON THE BRAKE, WHICH WAS VERY HARD, PUSHED THE BUTTON BUT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. THE LIGHTS, RADIO AND AIR CONDITIONER WOULD ALL COME ON BUT THE ENGINE WOULD NOT START. THE CAR WAS IN PARK AND THE GEAR SHIFT COULD NOT BE MOVED. I ATTEMPTED MULTIPLE TIMES FOR THE NEXT 10 MINUTES TO START THE VEHICLE BUT WAS UNABLE. MY HUSBAND TRIED PUTTING JUMPER CABLES ON THE BATTERY TO SEE IF THAT WAS THE PROBLEM BUT IT DID NOT START. I WAITED ABOUT 5 MINUTES AND TRIED AGAIN BUT THE VEHICLE STILL WOULD NOT START. FINALLY AFTER ALMOST 20 MINUTES, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS EASY TO PUSH ON AND THE VEHICLE STARTED. IT CAUSED ME TO BE LATE TO WORK BUT I DID NOT HAVE ANOTHER OCCURRENCE UNTIL ABOUT A WEEK LATER WHEN I HAD BEEN DRIVING FOR SOME TIME AND STOPPED FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES. I GOT BACK IN THE CAR AND ONCE AGAIN THE BRAKE WAS VERY HARD AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. AFTER MULTIPLE TIMES OVER THE NEXT 10 MINUTES, IT FINALLY STARTED. *TR |
