Engine warning light is showing up constantly, so visited Hyundai dealer, Valencia, but did not do anything. When visiting another repair shop, technician advised it is related to Stater Assembly Safety Recall. Hyundai did not do anything regarding this recall even there is probable fire explosion. It is seriousely worried about this matter. Please help this one. Thank you.

I don't know if it was electrical or engine related. The oil pressure light would come on while driving - all conditions - slow, fast, stop-and-go backroads as well as during steady highway driving. While highway driving at one point, the oil light came on and the check engine light also comes on and the functioning of the car is affected (power, steering etc.) for a brief time, then it went back to normal. It felt like the car turned off while I was driving on the highway and then came back on.

Upon driving many warning lights light up and make warning signals on the instrument dashboard. These warning lights light up at the same time or in succession and include: check bid system, tire pressure, check engine light, skid control, check bsd system, and others. In addition, brakes become sticky and steering is affected. Worse yet, car slows down on its own as it engages crash avoidance system.

The check engine light come on for no reason. The car locked me out while running and both key fabs wouldn't unlock it from the outside. The smart trunk doesn't work. When you lock the doors, the driver's side won't lock.

My vehicle showed solid check engine light while I was on 101 freeway and after exiting to city road I could park and read the error code "p0880 power input to TCM", I reported the issue to hyundai dealer and they diagnosed the issue as internal TCM defect. Dealer replaced the TCM but that couldn't fix the problem. And they just released the car as is. After a short while my car had become unable to reverse, and when set the gear to reverse, my car moves forward to make a very life threatening. I called hyundai corporate office but they didn't help. Now, I cannot drive my car because it is unsafe and because because I'm not a mechanic to diagnose the problem while the dealer and the corporate don't help. I found out that the model of my car is a subject to recall for gear problem which is exactly what I face now. It seems that both of the dealer and the corporate office are aware of the issue in this particular model but they did not even mentioned it to me until I found it by myself. A car like that is unsafe for me to drive because it runs forward only even when the gear is reverse and if stops I cannot even push it backwards. A car with this defect is dangerous for my community. Please help to force that company either replace the car for me, repurchase or repair it to full operational status..

My car was perfectly operational but suddenly during regular driving on the 101 highway it showed solid check engine sign. I checked the error and it read p0880 I had taken my car to the hyundai dealer (keys) where they diagnosed it as TCM internal failure and recommended changing the TCM after paying for the part and installation ($994.00 and $162.00 for diagnosis) the dealer installed the part and came back to inform me that the issue persists after part's installation and that they are going to work with the electricity to fix the problem. Dealer informed me that they shall work on the circuits but not with any transmission problem. As this issue happened with regular use, I believe it to be manufacturing issue that must be carried out and fixed by hyundai.

The federal safety agency campaign number 16v575000 - my hyundai is experiencing the exact same symptoms that is portrayed in the campaign number I have listed. I have taken it to a hyundai dealership multiple times and have been told that they are unaware of what the issue is or have "attempted" to fix the issue yet it still occurs. Now, because I have just surpassed my warranty, the hyundai dealership is making me pay for all diagnostics and fixes. My VIN, however, does not show that this was a part of this recall. All of my warning indicators illuminate. My steering becomes tight. My backup camera will not work. And my speedometer and tachometer will glitch and not accurately display my speed or rpms. All indicators inside the lcd screen will show me that I have a malfunction. This includes my passenger seat belt, my lane keep assistance, my autonomous emergency braking, my tire pressure, my engine light, as well as my blinkers not properly illuminating or making any sound when turned on. This will occur from time to time and is not always constant. It will also occur at random, whether I am driving, stationary, or if I have just turned my car on for the first time of the day. I have videos and pictures of these events occurring.

I was driving northbound on I-295 in washington, dc when my check engine light illuminated and the car began to slow down in extremely heavy traffic and I lost the ability to accelerate. I attempted to accelerate in order to get my vehicle off the busy highway and to a safer location, but I was not able to go more than a few meters. It was fortunate that I was not seriously hurt or killed. This is clearly a serious safety issue and I am surprised that there has not been a recall to fix this problem, especially considering that it appears to be something that has been happening to many hyundai vehicles for some time now. After more than one (1) hour, I was rescued by a towing company that left my car at the dealership. The dealership has discovered that I require at least a throttle body assembly to repair the issue and has ordered the parts which means that I am renting a car until the repairs are made (the part will take several days to be delivered). After the throttle body assembly is installed, the dealership will rescan to see if that eliminates some of the other codes that were discovered.
