Instrument cluster has stopped working. Issue has been confirmed with Matt Bowers Hyundai in Gulfport, MS. Similar to the TSB 22-01-058H. Instrument cluster fails to display RPMs, Temperature, Speed, and Fuel level. Auto Bright headlights fail, seatbelt warning lights fail. Cruise control becomes inactive. Also have noticed this to cause parking sensors to become inaccurate.

The instrument cluster seems to fail more so in the hotter weather. The speedometer, RPMs and gas gauge just stop working altogether. This seems extremely similar to the issues of other Hyundai vehicles that were recalled. The blind spot monitoring turns on and off as it pleases and there is a message that comes up sometimes that say it has been turned off due to electrical failure. The HDMI port in the counsel does not work but half the time so using android auto fails constantly. The radio signal is very poor in the car, resulting in static and high pitched noises on the stations and cannot use regular stations. There also is a huge oil consumption and oil burn smell and leak. This also seems very common for other Hyundai vehicles that have been recalled. Having to put 4-5 quarts in per month and only drive it maybe 1,500 miles in that time frame. There is a pause bumpiness when having to accelerate sometimes as well, followed by failure of oxygen sensor smells and baffles within the muffler seem to often have weird sounds. Have had the vehicle for 1 year and it was bought as a Hyundai certified pre-owned vehicle. It only has about 85K miles on it.

Car stored in garage. Upon starting the vehicle instrument gauges (speedometer, tachometer, fuel, etc...) remained in off position. Needles would slightly flutter. Car is drivable, but gauges all read essentially zero with needles fluttering. digital speed reporting was also registering 0MPH when driving. Digital fuel range reports correctly while fuel gauge needle registered E. Turned car off an on several times with no effect. Left car for ~20 minutes and tried again and at this point the gauges worked as intended. This happened once before ~3 months ago, but resolved quickly after 5 minutes.

2100 miles and the digital and analog speed odometer both stopped working. The gas gauge also acted erratic. It wasn't showing the gas as full but the tank had just been completely filled (picture has example of both). Dealership unplugged the battery and reset the vehicle to factory settings and fixed the problem. I work for a car electrical component manufacturing supplier and it is believed this is caused by software within the instrument cluster because the speed odometer and the fuel gas aren't connected within the vehicle.
