Common problems and easy repairs on a 2011 Sonata

The 2011 Hyundai Sonata GLS is somewhat easy to maintain. Many of the headlights are accessible by simply reaching behind their housing, allowing for reliable bulb changes. Many of the tail lights also have easy access, as most of them are located behind a single panel in the trunk. The spare tire and jack kit are packaged together, allowing for quick removal and set-up in the event you need to service a flat.

However, the 2011 Hyundai Sonata GLS does have its challenging aspects. You’ll need to go through a small panel in the wheel well lining for access to the front turn signal, which will require many tools and a tight reach. Some of the tail lights require their entire housings to be removed for access, which won’t allow for reliable changes. Reaching the battery bracket may be problematic given the obstructed location of it in the engine bay.
