Hyundai Kona N

There would be a stumble when accelerating up to highway speeds at random times. During acceleration on a highway on August 30, 2025, that stumble became constant and the engine light came on. Exhaust sounds was no longer smooth and constant but rather a constant sputter. Greater vibration was felt in the car anytime the accelerator was depressed. Pulled off the highway and can visually see the motor vibrating significantly. When accelerating from a stop or crawling speed, it struggles to move…

Knock sensor code P1326 has set my car into limp mode twice from getting wet after a car wash once and the other driving on a rainy day. Both times the dealership has replaced the knock sensor. The car suddenly loosing power on the highway going 65pmh and stock at only able 2k rpm is not safe. It's a known issues that yet to receive a recall or at least permanent fix.

While driving on the interstate, the car went into limp mode (does not rev above 2000 rpm). I was unable to maintain speed or merge back into interstate. The dealership has inspected the vehicle, however, they confirm everything is normal. The car did give an engine error code of P132600 for Powertrain. This is the second time this issue has occurred, the dealership replaced the knock sensor the first time.

While driving after a recent car wash, my car entered limp mode, limiting the engine to 2000 RPM. Multiple warning lights for electrical, safety, and engine issues appeared on the dashboard, and the error code P211800 was displayed. Despite being inspected at the dealership, the issue couldn’t be reproduced, and the error code disappeared. This problem has occurred twice, but each time the dealership was unable to identify the cause since the error code was no longer present.

The knock sensor on the engine fails when exposed to any amount of water. The car is designed in a way that lets on too much. It’s something that is VERY common amongst owners of these vehicles. It’s a safety flaw that needs to be fixed because it puts the car in “limp” mode. That makes the car instantly halt acceleration. Please hold Hyundai accountable

After washing my '23 Kona N in a hand car wash, I experienced a sudden, complete loss of power as I was pulling into traffic immediately afterwards, nearly resulting in a rear-end collision. There was a flashing check engine light (CEL or MIL) on the dash, and I had to have the vehicle towed to a dealership. The stored OBD-II code is P132600 (knock sensor). The car has only 16k miles on it. This is a KNOWN ISSUE, and there are complaints about it all over Reddit, Facebook, and other Internet…

I bought a used from Route46Nissan. Horn wasn't working when I bought the car and battery was also dead which I had to pay out of pocket to replace. I realized that two tires have side bubbles and which is extremely unsafe which they sold the car like that with security issues. They sold me a warranty and they are not keeping their promises for the stuff that they need to fix

Car tends to jerk and almost jump when first pulling out of almost anywhere. Seems to have happened with other people with the same car. When you turn after pulling out sometimes, the car will jump and the suspension sounds like it’s jumping. The particular issue makes it hard to steer and can easily make the car lose control for anyone not experienced.

Horn stopped functioning
