Description of the problem | Intermittent engine light illumination. Happens only after the "vehicle check in progress". Car has started to run rough both while accelerating and at a stop. Acts like it will shut off. Having to put the car in neutral and pat the gas to keep it running. There is a tsb for this issue but no active recall. Constant run around at the service centers. They say its normal for it to run rough. Also the rubber steering coupler went bad. Was making a thud noise when steering wheel was turned. Also a tsb for this.... No recall. But wait theres more! The clock spring is also bad! Tsb for this too! Bad clock spring results in the loss of power to the buttons on the right side of the steering wheel. When i replaced the steering coupling, i forgot to plug in a wiring harness under the wheel and the buttons started working again but had no power steering. Plugged the harness back in and had steering but the buttons no longer worked. Pretty sure hyundai is uploading error codes and giving people the run around in an attempt to get more money. Recall this crap already before something bad happens. Hold this company responsible for selling crap to people. |
