2012 genesis sedan consistently stalls under medium to low speeds while braking or making a turn. All warning lights come on and loss of steering and braking occurs. Car is difficult to control safely without use of emergency brake due to the loss of steering/braking. This incident now occurs with each car trip while traveling on all kinds or roads and at various speeds but not more than 40 miles an hour. I am worried for the safety of my wife and 3 year old child since I take them everywhere with me. Car has been at hyundai dealership for 4 days and they can not diagnose the problem because there are no fault codes to look up.

While making a right turn onto ramp engine falls cuts off and I have no control over steering, breaks or anything. Finally got it on to the side of road and put it in park and it cracked right up. This is very scary. What if I had been going fast down the road and could not stop the car. Someone could be killed like this. I decided to look it up on google and found out that lots of other have had the same identical problems and no mechanic or anyone can find anything. Hyundai needs to be held accountable for this and fix there miss up but of course it will take people being killed first.

Engine shutdown and lost steering and brake control when making a right turn. This is the 2nd time this has happened. Details: on both the times, when I was trying to make a right turn at a slow speed the engine shut down and I lost control of steering was well as brakes. I had to put the car in park, in the middle of the intersection and push button to start the car again. Luckily there was nothing in the way (car or a pedestrian), or else there would have been an accident. This could be an even dangerous issue if this happens when making a left turn or when on a freeway. Please issue a recall for this, and have hyundai fix this problem.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 hyundai genesis. While driving 20 MPH and attempting to make a right turn, the vehicle lost power and the instrument cluster indicators illuminated. In addition, the steering wheel seized and caused the driver to lose control of the vehicle and run over the median. The contact was able to depress the brake pedal and stop the vehicle. Once at a complete stop, the driver turned off and restarted the vehicle on the first attempt and drove home. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer (capitol hyundai montgomery, 2820 eastern blvd, montgomery, al, 36116), but could not be repaired until two and a half weeks later. Due to the delay, the contact declined to proceed with scheduling diagnostic testing. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 65,760.

Veering right since new 7/2012 on freeway and city streets. Undercarriage right side "tweaked" per hyundai service rep in 2016. In shop since april 22 and out may 14, /2017 right control arm broken and coil spring bad (fixed per service rep), alignment still in red right front camber; steering wheel severely off center at times and now veers more to left and sometimes to right on city streets and highway; when coming to stop steering wheel becomes severely off center. In april 2017 was losing speed even though pressing on gas pedal and acting if wanting to stall several times with in a week (happening a few other times in past but thought due to being cold or bad gas.. When this happened psi light turned on. Happening on freeway and while merging onto freeway and other times on city streets. When this happened in april 2017 the last time with the wanting to stall problem steering wheel became really off center (dealer notified and taken to shop on 4/25/2017). Also would not go into reverse the same day of losing power wanting to stall. (happening a few other times in the past). Now AC air force low and doesn't cool as prior to being in shop 4/2017 and blows hot air at times. Airbag sensors not working properly as before shop visit 4/2017. Have had paint chipping problems on body of driver door and passenger door and around truck area. Has also had fuel pump issues, repeaired once (when pumping gas pump constantly clicking off). Poor suspension rear end feels like it bottoms out when going over bad road/bumps on freeway and city streets.

Driving home on the 405 fwy last night my genesis r-spec 5.0 lost all power, electrical and steering. Fortunately, I was on the right lane and was able to maneuver the vehicle off the fwy. I had no lights, no emergency flashers, complete shutdown of power. It was about 9pm and dark luckily it was not in a lane or this could have been fatal as I could not turn on any lights! Extremely dangerous and have reported my incident to hyundai customer care. Vehicle was towed to dealership pending diagnostics.
