I have the 2021 Kona. I worked out that all the beeps I hear make sense. Sometimes they can be strange - an example is - if you are turning right in a right turning lane, and there are tram tracks to ...
Read moreyour right, then an approaching tram will set off the beep - it thinks you are about to turn right into the tram. I don't mind the beeps - they are there to keep you alert and aware.
How do I stop my Kona talking to me all the time? eg Warning Children Crossing Ahead, Warning Narrow Road Ahead, etc... Its driving me crazy!!!
Has anybody had an issue with a steering wheel noise (like no power steering fluid) and then like a creaking noise when turning the steering wheel or coming to a stop? This is a 2018 model OS Kona Active with safety Has anybody had any steering issues of any type??

my Kona Elec just powers off like dead on a full charge then have to get racv to check it out .
dealers ship says nothing wrong with it
Can I check a couple of possibilities -
does this happen when you use the remote e.g. precooling (or heating) the car.
Have you done the Battery management update (the recall)....
no not using any remote
yes done recall done had this issue 4 times since recall and the bracking system recall done .

The on road cost nudging $70K (for a small suv) for the ev version shows the take up of ev's will be slow in Australia for many years. Batteries prices, put forward as the major reason seem to be stubbornly high.
How reliable is the kona 2 litre and 6 speed auto. Any issues ?
What price please
There are 5 models, 4 having the option of two different drive trains (9 models total). Price ranges from $27K to $44K on the road. If you value function over form I strongly recommend the 1.6 Turbo A...
Read moreWD option. This car is a joy to drive and fastest in the small SUV class. Price for the Turbo starts at $31K for a white GO.
Can someone please tell me where to find what speed the cruise is set to on the cluster? I cant see it anywhere and I feel like Im missing something obvious! Thanks
Im hoping my next car is a Kona, what are they like in regards to mechanics?
I bought mine because our trusted mechanic told us it is very reliable. He bought one for his Mum. Lucky Mum !
What petrol rating is required ? Service intervals ?
91 octane is ok and the service interval seems to be every 12 month after the initial check after 4weeks from purchase from new.
My 2018 kona cruise control is usless. If it actually engages crusie control, it dosent keep the speed. Either drops down or speeds up well over the selected speed. . dealer says the cruise control is working....dosent want to fix it is more like it, shame on you hyundai. i know its not working and never has. Only done 17,000km. Now reversing sensors not working either. Booked in again for friday. Thought it was a great little car... not now.
I have the same cruise control issue you have as have many other owners. I own 2 konas both have the same issue. It is intermittent. My dealer where I get the car serviced is aware of it, and assures ...
Read moremy Hyundai is working on a fix. I suggest changing where you get your car serviced to a more supportive one.
What's the biggest tire size I can run on 16's?
My Kona has a door locking issue. Sometimes it won’t lock at all with the remote. Sometimes it will lock but mirrors won’t close in. Been back to dealer several times and of course it works ok there . Is only 11 months old. Can you offer an answer
It couldbe the door remote control-easiest to justchange the battery. If that doesn’t work it still could be the remote or the receiver in the car. But you’d need a professional tocheck it out
what is the difference between the 2017 model Kona Active 1.6L turbo to the 2019 model ?
I have a problem filling my Kona with fuel. The bowser piece won't fit completely into my tank and when it reaches full fuel spurts out everywhere. Why won't it go completely into my fuel tank? Anyone else having this problem
Joanna when inserting pump, push on a slight down angle for the first half and then lift up higher to push right in.
My new Hyundai Kona is missing one of the two standard reversing light. The dealer told me this was standard as they did not have to fit two reversing lights in Australia. This is a safety issue. If I am reversing, I can only be seen from one side. Can I have a second reversing light retrofitted?.
That is correct.Its not a fault.Talk to your auto electrician but don’t think you can unless all the wiring is there,just get them to have a look for you.
As Dave says, it is standard to have only one reversing light on this model
If I had known, I would never have bought a Kona. A missing reversing light is a problem when reversing in carparks as you can only be seen from one side. Its not safe and will lead to an accident. ...

Is this problem in the OS or the OS.2?
I am having a problem with the radio jumping stations. Any help?
Wow I've never had that. I suggest you take it back to the dealer and ask. Or find a 13yo teenager, they know everything about technology.. Good luck.
I'm having the same problem. My car has gone back 5 times but they cant fix it. Has yours been fixed?
I'm having this issue as well. The screen will show that you're still listening to the same station but the station has actually changed randomly. Very frustrating.
