I didn't know the horn wasn't working. I was driving and a vehicle almost backed into me on the drivers door. I couldn't warn them that I was behind them I was fortunate to move before they backed into me. I haven't taken the car to the dealer. I searched on the internet to see if this was an isolated incident and I found hundreds of incidents of people reporting faulty horns on Hyundai vehicles. This should be a safety and a recall issue/

I’ve gotten my horn replaced for the second straight time in the past year. Currently at the dealership and service advisors here at West Herr Hyundai in Williamsville state many horns go bad as of today they’ve replaced 7 of them.

Car horn failure. Almost had an accident. Tried to honk the horn, so that i could warn the other driver coming toward my lane, nothing, no sound at all. I swerved my car out of the way... it could have been bad if there was a car next to me. Took the car to the dealership. Verdict, they said the car horn needs to be changed. Nope, did not notice any warnings that the horn gonna malfunction. It is messed up. I hardly use the horn and yet it is broken. Isn't the horn supposed to last a while?
