The headlights randomly turn off or switch between high and low beams. This is dangerous especially at night because high beams can impair another driver's vision or having the lights turn off completely makes me unseen on the road. My car is available for inspection upon request. When I have gone online, I have seen other Hyundai customers have experienced the same thing.

I was returning home this afternoon and my wife's Hyundai Elantra was parked in the driveway with the brake lights lit. I figured my wife had left her lights on and looked in the car to see they were off. I started the car and pressed the brake a few times but the lights remained on so I thought the switch had gone bad. My wife watched as I pressed the brake pedal switch manually and the switch worked but the pedal did not come far enough back to depress the switch and I saw online that a pad was supposed to be present but was missing. I found recalls for the past few years mentioning an issue with pad deterioration and figure this is something that might be happening to this model as well.

The electronic stability control (ESC) warning light came on and I brought the car in for servicing. The Hyundai service department said that it was related to the brakes. When I was ready to pick up the vehicle, the dealership called me and said the brake relay (which caused the problem and needed to be replaced) caused the brake lights to short and now I have to get them replaced as well.
