2011 Hyundai SONATA Exterior Lighting Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1295690
Internal NHTSA #	10882390
Manufacurer	Hyundai Motor America
Brand	HYUNDAI
Model	SONATA
Model Year	2011
File date	03/07/16
Component	EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Came out to the parked vehicle in our driveway to find the entire driver side rear light assembly falling out. The car was never hit or in an accident. Noticed that the studs (fasteners) going into the tail light assembly cracked apart and separated from the studs and the assembly allowing the assembly to fall from the body. A new tail light assembly will be needed to repair. This looks as though there could be a tensile strength problem with the plastic. If it falls off there is no tail light and it could damage another vehicle if on the highway.
