After driving the car and the engine is turned off it will not crank again immediately.it takes approximately 15-30 minutes for the car to cool down before starting again.

Replaced brake switch and was charged $159.54. Three days later the esc light was back on. Took vehicle back to dealership on 3-7-14. Was told the brake switch was defective and was replaced at no charge, but technician recommended replacing both brake light bulbs. They were replaced and i was charged $29.57. The esc light came back on 4-9-14. Took the vehicle back in again on 4-10-14. Diagnostic code c1513 found that fuse was blown. Replaced at no charge. Received notification from dealership about safety recall about stop lamp switch on 4-22-14.when i called on 4-28-14 iwas told it was an error. No recall. My switch had been replaced in 2009.tried to explain that i found on internet about recall dating back to 4-1-13.was told you can't believe everything on the internet and there is no recall for my vehicle.

I was doing a 75mph in the state of colorado and suddenly i lost all the power in steering. The brakes were jammed. The steering wheel won't budge. I got rattled in this situation but adrenaline took over and i could slightly swerve the car off the highway and then on the shoulder. I had to use the emergency brakes often, just to slow down the speed and hence to a full stop. The parking brake was my only resort in this incident. I was fortunate to not have met with an accident. It would have been fatal. Upon diagnosis, i found that the timing belt had broken down and this resulted in the loss of power to motors and hence the entire breaking and steering assembly. There was no warning sign for the same, no check engine or any sign that this might happen. Had there been an indication, i would have got the issue sorted out. There are plenty of cars on road which are not aware of this possible issue. This can cause sudden loss of control over car and hence catastrophic/ fatal accidents. I had to tow the car for 200 miles to repair shop. It broke down at a lonely spot.the official position of the company is "we have not seen this issue for a lot of similar cars and hence we won't be taking any action". This is unacceptable. There must be someone who is accountable for such kind of issues. At least a warning should be sent to current car owners so that we can save some lives.
When trying to brake as the truck in front of me was braking, my brakes would not work at all. I slammed into the truck at approximately 47 mph. My airbags did not deploy and my seat belt did not tighten. Nothing worked the way it was supposed to.

The 'check engine' light came on.the next day as i was turning into our driveway with my foot off of the gas pedal, the car accelerated at full throttle.i immediately shifted into neutral and the engine roared.i then turned it off and restarted it and it was fine then.i took it to the dealer and they replaced a temperature sensor for the transmission.i have had no incident since then.i could have killed someone with the car lurching like that.
After driving the car and the engine is turned off it will not crank again immediately.it takes approximately 15-30 minutes for the car to cool down before starting again. In starting the car again, fuel smell is very strong and the car shakes with black smoke coming from the exhaust/tail pipe.the dealer was able to duplicate.in addition,when feet is on brakes, the transmission revel up as if the car is going to take off.this happens when applying the brakes and coming to a stop.the dealer has duplicated the cranking problem.i was told several components were being replaced only to find out that if the fuel pump,fuel pump wiring, cleaning of corrosion from the wiring harness was done, the car still would not crank after driving the car and turning it off.after calling the consumer affairs office several times and was told that a case manager would call, the case manager never called.the dealer requested a field engineer.after the fuel smell continue to worsen, telephone consumer affairs for the fourth time.this time, the first responder answering the phone laughed when i told her that i was afraid of driving the car and feared that it would catch on fire or blow up according to mechanics.the representative snickered! she told me that the field engineer determined that the wiring harness had been damaged when i supposedly pre-wired the car for an after market alarm system. He decided to void the warranty so the dealer stopped trying to figure out what is wrong with the car. I was told i had to fix the wiring harness.the problem with this conclusion is that i never had an after market alarm put on the car nor did i buy a car with an after market alarm system.i have experience the problem from january 2011 and continues to experience.i called for the ceo of hyundai who never responded. The case is with regional who has yet to call.
2007 hyundai tucson with only 22,000 miles on it is now experiencing sudden unintended acceleration. Hyundai is in total denial and squirted some lubricant on a linkage and sent me on my way. After not being able to drive this vehicle due to safety concerns i demanded that the same tech come out and drive it for his self. After getting on an interstate the same issue happened to the tech and now they are stating that something is wrong just not saying what.sporadic sudden acceleration is experienced with no warning. The gas pedal will actually fall rite from under your foot or more precisely is sucked out from under your foot. The engine tacks out at top end and if driven for a while this will slow down to normal driving conditions.braking is impeded by some mechanism and does not stop the car and after standing literally on the break pedal i was forced to shut the car down and coast wildly into a break down lane.this issue has been experienced now for 3 months.car has been to the dealership 3 times now for this issue. The described set of occurrences above have taken place a number of times and with varying degrees of severity. When will these car companies get the message? how many people need to be killed by these kinds of engineering flaws before real action is taken?
