Hyundai Sonata Electrical System Safety Report | Oct 04, 2011
Reported on Oct 04, 2011
| ON THE WAY TO WORK THIS MORNING, MY SONATA HYBRID STARTED BEEPING AND CHECK CHARGING SYSTEM APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD. MY CAR SUDDENLY STARTED LOSING ENGINE POWER TO THE POINT WHERE MY CAR WOULD NOT MOVE AFTER THE STOP LIGHT TURNED GREEN, LEAVING ME STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF A HUGE INTERSECTION WITH PEOPLE ALMOST HITTING ME. AFTER RESTARTING MY CAR, IT FINALLY STARTED TO MOVE, BUT REPEATED THE SAME INSTANCE AT THE NEXT STOP LIGHT. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. I HAD TO HAVE MY CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE I WAS NOT GOING TO RISK MY SAFETY AND LIFE. PEOPLE NEED TO BE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE BECAUSE IF OTHER VEHICLES ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM, SOMEONE COULD GET INTO A SERIOUS CAR WRECK WHICH COULD BE POTENTIALLY FATAL, IF HAPPENED ON A FREEWAY. *TR | |
