Since buying this car my traction control light has been coming on. It is happening more and more frequent. It is causing my car to slow down without me using the brakes by as much as 10-15 miles per hour. At this time i'm not sure if my break lights are staying on.

The car decelerated, i was unable to steer and the tires screeched on the ground. I was able to push the esc off button and recover control of the car, avoiding the crash. I knew about the off button only because we have had this problem since…

I filed a case with hyundai and have an appointment with te dealer to see what can be…

A disturbing sound on the right side of the vehicle occurred after contact with the pothole. Upon inspection of the tires and rims all seemed well. On february 24, 2016 (after being stationary since the incident), a large golf ball size bulge appeared on the…

The dealership has consistently over-torqued the wheel lug nut/bolts and it seems that the situation is getting worse. The specification for the lug nuts is up tp 79 ft-lbs.. The last service by the dealership tighten them to 200-300 ft-lbs, or more. The manager at the dealership defended their work and didn't understand what a ft-lb was, not alone the elastic limit of the bolts, nuts and alloy wheels. They seem to…

While driving on the highway or any roadway for that matter, if i hit any metal pieces that have been installed on the roadway, or if i go over any bumps on the road, my car seems to almost fishtail. You can briefly feel the back of it get thrown from side to side. This has made me extremely nervous, especially since we have such harsh winters. Can anything be done by hyundai to correct this problem before someone…

Tires that came factory on the vehicle did not last as long as the tire was rated from the manufactures website. They are nearly bald, due to highway driving, and the manufacture and car company will not honor the tread life warranty. They said that there is not an owner warranty because i did not purchase the tires. This is confusing to me, only because i bought a $24,000 car! Continental was contacted by me to…
