Hyundai Recalls 2011 Sonata to Fix Door-Lock Problem

Hyundai is recalling 2011 Sonata sedans because the front door-lock modules can stick under some circumstances.

The automaker told dealers to stop selling the cars and said it would issue a recall for about 1,300 Sonatas built through Feb. 16 at the company’s plant in Alabama, as well as 46,000 Sonatas made in Korea.

A company spokesman said the door malfunction occurs only when front-seat passengers try to open their doors while simultaneously holding down the lock button.

Replacement parts should begin reaching U.S. dealers this week, the company said.

Consumers may contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY: 1-800-424-9153)
