Description of the problem	We took delivery of our 2011 hyundai sonata on 4/29/2010. As we were driving home a car on the lane next to us on my right hand side started shifting onto my lane. I blew the horn but he still cut me off. At the light i asked the person who cut me off if he didn't hear me blowing my horn at him and he said no i am really sorry but i didn't see you and i didn't hear your horn either. When i got home i got into my other car and started it with the ac on and no radio i asked my wife to press the horn on the sonata and i can barely hear it and we were just sitting in our driveway with no road noise and my radio off. I looked into this issue online and others have the same issue with the horns on their sonata. Hyundai also admitted that the horn was weak but i still see no change or recall. Please look into this matter before it cost someone their life or a real bad accident.
