I received a safety recall notice that my ABS module could develop a short circuit resulting in an engine compartment fire. This fire could occur even when the car is turned off, which increases the risk of injury. I received this notice today, april 7, 2020. I have called the hyundai dealerships in my pittsburgh area. The wexford site cannot serve me until may 18 because they have only received 5 recall parts from hyundai. The south hills site does not have any parts at all. Hyundai is failing to equip locations with necessary parts to address this recall. Therefore I and hundreds of other hyundai car owners are at risk of a fire that could develop and no way to prevent, as the fire could occur even when the car is off.

For a few months I had a rattling noise coming from the rear of the car when my car was idling on a city street facing downhill (at a stop sign). Then it got suddenly worse for 2 days, so that it rattled all the time when idling in drive or park (stopped at lights or signs or in a parking space). Then it completely stopped rattling - and the next day another driver on the highway, on the 4th of july, notified me that my brake lights were not working. I don't know if it is a coincidence or not.

Passenger side sun visor became disconnected and its weight pulled its wire out 2 inches so that it would not go back in and would not stay up anymore. Now it is completely off and too expensive to fix. Many people have reported this problem and it should be a recall. We may have to have it fixed without having the electrical hooked up to run the mirror light, which is really annoying.

While I drive down the road, weather it be at 10mph or 55mph, my eps light and emergency brake light will turn on and my car will stop. It will not turn off until my car is stopped, turned off. And turned back on again. Since the power steering is lost I can not just turn to the side of the road. I have to pray that no one will be coming up behind me and hit me causing an accident. Before that will happen for two weeks my alarm will go off at all hours of the day and night. Over and over and over again until my cars eps and e brake lights turn on while I am driving, but then the cycle will start all over again. The most frequent tiem this happened was while I was driving down highway 99w in dundee oregon, I was going about 45mph and my cars eps and e break .light turned on and I had to turn it off and then restart it. I have taken it many times to a dealership to fix but they just charge me money and say its fixed, but then it happens again. I will sue, I am so over my car threatening my life and the lives of my loved ones.
