Description of the problem	Just purchased a 2011 hyundai sonata, as i was driving home i was beside a tractor trailer who was attempting to turn into my lane. Here is the problem as i laid on the horn i noticed it's no louder than the road runner on disney channel. This is a huge safety concern and i think this should be brought to hyundai attention asap. This horn needs to be changed to an appropriate sound level so oncoming traffic and dangerous situations can be avoided. I am not the only person the believes hyundai should address this issue as i now see many complaints on the web about the horn just not being loud enough. Hyundai has come alone way and certainly has made a name for themselves and i would hate to see someone get injured or killed do to the horn not being able to get attention and avoid accidents... I hope nhtsa looks into this issue and it's addressed by hyundai.... The horn needs to be changed.
