2021 Hyundai Sonata Fuel System Problems

Your 2021 Sonata has fuel system issues related to recall 25V796000, but Hyundai has not provided a remedy and is asking you to pay $1,600 to replace the fuel assembly. Both the dealer and corporate are refusing to cover the repair, and you don't feel safe driving the vehicle. The repair would involve replacing the fuel pump assembly and related fuel system components.

Your 2021 Hyundai Sonata was recalled for a fuel system issue (Campaign 25V796000), and when you took it to the dealer for repair, they said the vehicle couldn't be fixed. Hyundai's engineers reviewed your car and determined it was unrepairable, offering you a buyback with an 8% discount on a new vehicle instead—an offer you declined since your car hasn't actually failed and is nearly paid off. The resolution would likely involve either replacing fuel system components or, in Hyundai's assessment, replacing the entire vehicle.

Your 2021 Sonata's engine lost power while you were driving, even though you pressed the accelerator. The fuel gauge showed empty and the low fuel warning was on, even though you had just refueled. A passenger noticed the rear seat was out of place and very hot. Your vehicle appears to match a known recall issue (Campaign 25V796000) related to the fuel system that you may not have been notified about. This issue likely requires inspection of the fuel system and rear seat area to identify and address the underlying cause.

Your 2021 Hyundai Sonata is subject to a recall (Campaign 25V796000) related to the fuel system, but the replacement part needed to fix it isn't currently available at your dealer. You've been waiting longer than a reasonable amount of time for the repair to be completed, and you've reported this delay to the manufacturer. So far, you haven't experienced any actual fuel system failure.

Your 2021 Sonata is shutting off unexpectedly while driving, and you've noticed a strong fuel smell inside the cabin along with unusual popping sounds from the engine. Your car is also using much more fuel than normal. You've been notified of a recall (Campaign 25V796000) related to the fuel system, but the replacement part isn't available yet from the dealer. The fix will likely involve replacing a faulty fuel system component once the recall part becomes available.

Your car isn't accelerating properly when you press the gas pedal, and it's shaking abnormally while driving. Your dealer informed you about a recall (NHTSA Campaign 25V796000) related to the fuel system, but the necessary parts aren't currently available to complete the repair. The manufacturer is aware of the issue and has opened a case to address it.

You've noticed a strong gas smell in your car and took it to the dealer twice for inspection. While they repaired a cracked cylinder head during the second visit, they couldn't identify the source of the smell and suggested you return if you notice it again while driving. You're concerned about safety, especially when transporting young children, since a persistent gas smell could indicate a fuel leak or fire hazard.

Your 2021 Hyundai Sonata has a fuel pump that was recalled for safety reasons. You took it to the dealer in June 2025 for the recall repair, but as of September 2025, it's been sitting in the shop for over 89 days without being fixed — far longer than the 30-day legal limit in Virginia. You're invoking Virginia's Lemon Law to demand either a full refund or a replacement vehicle.

The car would excelerate while in park. While I was pressing the brakes the car would jerk forward, it would not just quietly idle. While driving the car would randomly speed up or slow down. Sometime it would sound like it was going to shut off and start vibrating.
