The ignition cables and spark plugs are faulty and had to be replaced just after 60,000 miles. I was driving and suddenly my check engine light started flashing, my car was shaking, and not shifting past first gear. Had it towed to a mechanic. They said the ignition cables and spark plugs were faulty. They had seen this on hyundai's before.

I believe that there is a problem with the cars main computer. Apparently my car ran out of oil and the indicator light merely flickered at me a few times and then went out. Had to have vehicle towed to shop when it stalled, no codes found in the computer. Shop changed oil. Engine was reported as noisy upon delivery but noise gone after oil change. Shop decided the issue was lack of oil. Two days later check engine light comes on and tachometer would not function. Dealership misrepresented issue on paperwork as stalled engine, I was simply afraid to drive it with the tach not functioning and the check engine light on given issue 2 days prior. Issue with vehicle crank sensor found. No mention of codes showing or not on the dealership paperwork. I was told no codes were found. Today, oil indicator light flickered again. Would not stay on. Upon my inspection there was no oil. I refilled oil, and it began to leak. Tried local mechanic and they advised do not drive, but could not take vehicle. Called roadside assistance, no word yet on newest issue. The only indicators that seem to work are for the tire pressure monitoring system. Client who is mechanic claims the main system and TPMS are completely separate. Poor design of engine information. Only meters are speed and tachometer. Customer must rely on computer to show indicators if there is an issue. This cars' oil indicator is malfunctioning. Wonder what other indicators are malfunctioning.

I continually noticed that the air vents express a very smelly odor. Whether it is the air conditioner or the heater- makes no difference. Went to the dealer and they said it was the air conditioner residue and to run my fan on vent to get rid of the moisture buildup. I have done this for a couple weeks now and they still smell like mold and mildew- I have only had this car for 60 days and can't get rid of the smell. I have allergies and this is a real problem for me. I have had many cars over the years and never experienced this every happening with the air condition in a vehicle. Have there been any complaints of this problem?is there warranty coverage for this or do I need to go back to the dealership and lodge a complaint to get rid of the car?

About the cooling system of the engine,how I can follow up the engine temp. Without temp.gauge this bad design ,it should wait until the engine close to burning until the alarm indicator displayed. So, we need solution from the owner about this problem. Thanks,
