The car loses power randomly. It typically happens at a stop light or a stop sign, usually within the first 10-15 mins of starting the car. It hasn-€™t happened after or while the car is driven for a long period of time. However, it has happened while getting on to the highway and while making turns into intersections. When the car loses power, there is no warning. Sometimes, it is hard to put the car into park and restart the car when it loses power. Oddly, however, when it loses power/ stalls/ shuts off, if the radio or other devices are on, they stay on. Symbols that appear on the dash when the car shuts down include the engine, oil, and battery lights. These lights also come on when you first cycle to start the car. We-€™ve taken the car to a Hyundai dealership and they said that they can-€™t find any codes, when they connect the car to a code reader.
Hyundai commerce sold me vehicle that has not passed smog yet and or the 90-day extension has expired. They never bother to mention that at the time of purchase. They put brand new tires onmy car 2 week after I purchased it. I blew a tire on the freeway on November 5 2014. The tire shoul D be less than 3 months old. My side mirrors do not work they do not rotate correctly. Therefore making it difficult to see out of at times. They said they replaced the motor but they are still not working. They said they fixed the alignment howver the car is still sliding to the right. They have not helped to correct their error and are pushing the car onto me and making it my problem. As a first time car buyer they used aggressive and intimatiion tactics to try and scare me. Please help.
The contact owns a 2007 Hyundai Accent. The contact stated that the air bag warning light remained illuminated. The dealer diagnosed that the seat sensor needed to be replaced. The vehicle had not been repaired. In addition, there were other electrical issues that were repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failures. The approximate failure mileage was 80,000.
Passenger side both doors permanently locked. Could not open manually. Had one fixed which cost approx $400. My concern if all doors had locked all at once I would be trapped inside. This is dangerous especially if I had a child inside. I feel we need a recall. I have never had such a problem in any other car. I feel this is hazardous...
Temperature light, check engine light, speedometer, RPM gauge, gas gauge, and odometer all stopped working at the same time. I was told it was a short in the computer ($1100 to fix). The car is 6 years old, I don't think this should have happened; it seems like there is faulty wiring/parts.
