Buying a used 2022 Hyundai Sonata? Check these 3 recalls first

3 NHTSA recalls · 91 owner complaints on file

Three open recalls here, all powertrain- or fuel-adjacent: a critical fuel-leak fire risk, a fuel tank that can melt and leak, and a campaign for vehicles that may suddenly lose all drive power. The unbonded-windshield recall listed on the 2021 car does not appear. NHTSA logged 91 unverified owner complaints — 8 crashes, 5 injuries, no fires — split fairly evenly across engine, power train, fuel/propulsion and electrical. No stop-driving or park-outside instructions attach to these recalls.

Before you buy

1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
2. Run the VIN for open status on both fuel recalls and the loss-of-drive-power campaign.
3. Ask about fuel smell, fuel-gauge oddities or any fuel tank work in the service history.
4. Test drive long enough to cover stop-and-go and highway merges, watching for hesitation or power loss.
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Hyundai dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
