This has occurred three separate times, but this report explains what happened during the most recent occurrence. I was driving at 40 mph. The car in front of me hit their brakes, so I lightly tapped my brakes to slow down. When I tapped the gas pedal, the car would not increase speed. The check engine light, oil light, and battery light each turned on simultaneously. The car then stalled completely, but the lights remained on and the car didn’t lose power. I hit the brakes (which were now hard to push down), hit my emergency flashes so that the car behind me would pass me, pulled over to the side of the road, and then I turned off the car. When I turned the car back on, 30 seconds later, all of the lights were off and the car started with no issue.

The positive battery terminal melted from an electrical issue and cannot be fixed due to the model and year of my car. The whole car has fully died and is not functional. My car is available for inspection. The car has only been inspected by a mechanic. The car would have trouble starting and staying on for the last 2 months or so and right before it died it was showing the steering wheel light for 2 days and then all the lights were blinking.

I was driving on a state roadway, a revved the engine a bit to get over a small hill, and heard loud fan like noises, sputtering, and all the warning lights went on. No smoke came out of the car, it literally sputtered to a stop. I tried to start it, it turned over once and that was it. Tried hooking cables to jump it, even bought a new battery. After changing spark plugs, it was determined one blew. We tried to replace, same thing happened, the engine is shot, the dealer is claiming $7,000 to fix this, and I'm seeing there are issues with the engine, not just me. I work for penndot maintenance, so I'm on top of maintaining, oil, filters, check ups. Tires were a bit low, but next on my list. I need help.

Car randomly comes to a complete stop while driving it at low speeds. All lights come on and vehicle does not move. I turned vehicle off and vehicles starts back up again. Occurred multiple times in several days. Hyundai told me they cannot diagnose the issue unless it replicates while in their possession.

When driving straight at 15-25 MPH, in town, after about 25 minutes of freeway driving, rpms at or around 1250, the engine shuts off and all the lights on the dash turn on. Taking it into the service center, there are no codes in the computer. The timing cap has been replaced once, because they were able to duplicate the issue at the shop, but the last two instances they were unable to duplicate so they refused to fix it. The car has 61000 miles on it and is still under hyundai's powertrain warranty.

I've had trouble starting the car multiple times. All lights will work fine, radio, power locks and windows all work, the car just doesnt start. I had it brought back to the hyundai dealership I bought it from and was told by the service guys it started up no problem for them and they couldnt find anything wrong. I've noticed that when it happens, taking the car out of park, and then shifting back to park seems to trigger something and then the car will start. It happens randomly

The car will not turn on. The battery has been test and is fine. This has happened several times over the past year. The car is turned off and stationary, when the key is in the ignition all lights turn on but the car does not turn on. It has been taken to multiple hyundai dealerships and they have not been able to duplicate the problem. This is a dangerous situation because it has left me stranded several times in rural areas.

The car won't start at times. I turn the key, all the lights and radio come on, no power to start the engine, no noise, no crank, nothing. If I wiggle the gear selector gently it will start. Last night it was stuck in park and I had to turn the car off, wiggle the selector a little again, and then it started and unlocked the gear selector. And yes, my foot is always firmly on the brake when I try to shift gears.
