The download I received was a complete waste of my money. Was not even close to what it was represented as. I thought I was getting a proper service repair manual. What I got was a collection of service bulletins. I sent an email to your company right after I looked through it requesting my money back. Have yet to hear a response. Terry Muich

It was much larger than i expected. 5 documents at 12k pages each. Its not something ill actually be able read but its easy enough to find what you need..
The Ford F250 manual is much easier to navigate at just over 8000 pages.
If i spend the money for Adobe Acrobat Professional ill be able to break it down into manageable bits.
Both manuals area great value for the money.

would rather have a maintenance manual. have a parts manual from parts vu company. only difference is that your parts manual has all together whereas the parts vu had to download the differsections individually.

Our original order was supposed to be for our 2014 Subaru Outback, yet the manual came up as Forester. We did have to purchase a new manual in order for them to send us the correct manual. We hope it will help us repair our Subaru.

Because this factory service and repair manual is built around the 2017 Hyundai Sonata as Hyundai itself configured it, engine and trim included, the clearances, torque values and procedure sequences you follow are the ones written for your car and not a figure carried across from an adjacent model year.

Known issues on the 2017 Sonata. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first concerns the driver-side frontal air bag inflator module on Sonata vehicles manufactured from May 27, 2016; in the event of a crash, an air bag that does not inflate fully increases the risk of injury. The second is an exterior lighting fault traced to the Smart Junction Box software logic on 2015-2017 Sonata, 2016-2017 Sonata Hybrid and Sonata Plug-In Hybrid vehicles, where a turn signal activates in the opposite direction of what was intended by the driver. The third covers the trunk lid latch, which may become damaged; a person inside the trunk compartment may become trapped, increasing their risk of injury. Owners have filed 975 complaints for the year and Hyundai has issued 153 technical service bulletins. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.

Whether you are testing a Smart Junction Box circuit, working an air bag or trunk latch inspection, or servicing the hybrid and turbocharged drivetrains this year offered, the manual holds you to Hyundai's own procedure and the correct figure for your 2017 Sonata.

NHTSA #16V95600030/12/2016Component: AIR BAGS:FRONTAL:DRIVER SIDE:INFLATOR MODULE

Hyundai Motor Company (Hyundai) is recalling certain model year 2017 Hyundai Elantra vehicles manufactured April 15, 2016, to September 13, 2016, and Sonata vehicles manufactured May 27, 2016 to September 16, 2016. In these vehicles, the end seal for the driver's frontal air bag inflator may not have been properly installed, possibly resulting in reduced inflation of the frontal air bag in the event of a crash.

Consequence

In the event of a crash, an air bag that does not inflate fully increases the risk of injury.

Remedy

Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will replace the driver's frontal air bag module, free of charge. The recall began February 13, 2017. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's number for this recall is 156.

NHTSA #21V74900024/09/2021Component: EXTERIOR LIGHTING:TURN SIGNAL

Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2015-2017 Sonata, 2016-2017 Sonata Hybrid, and Sonata Plug-In Hybrid vehicles. The Smart Junction Box (SJB) software logic may not properly interpret the signals received from the multifunction switch, which could cause the turn signal to activate in the opposite direction of what the driver intended.

Consequence

A turn signal that activates in the opposite direction of what was intended by the driver increases the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Dealers will update the SJB software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 19, 2021. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's number for this recall is 210.

NHTSA #21V61900006/08/2021Component: LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:TRUNK LID:LATCH

Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2017-2018 Sonata, 2016-2018 Sonata Hybrid, 2018-2020 Accent, and 2016-2017 Azera vehicles. The trunk latch may become damaged, preventing the opening of the trunk from the inside. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 401, "Internal Trunk Release."

Consequence

A person inside the trunk compartment may become trapped, increasing their risk of injury.

Remedy

Dealers will replace the trunk latch base, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 4, 2021. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460. Hyundai's number for this recall is 208.
