Hyundai Tucson Electronic Stability Control Safety Report | May 03, 2013
Reported on May 03, 2013
| WHILE DRIVING IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC TO AND FROM WORK (AM/PM) THE DBC (DOWNHILL BRAKE CONTROL) AND ESC (ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL) INDICATOR LIGHTS WILL TURN ON AND REMAIN ON UNTIL I STOP AND TURN OFF THE IGNITION. HOWEVER, WHEN I STOP, I AM UNABLE TO SHIFT THE GEAR INTO PARK. I AM FORCED TO PUT IT IN NEUTRAL TO TURN THE IGNITION OFF, WAIT A FEW MINUTES, THEN START THE CAR AND PUT IT IN PARK IN ORDER TO REMOVE THE IGNITION KEY. I MAY HAVE TO TRY THIS SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE I AM ABLE TO SHIFT INTO PARK. IT HAS HAPPENED THREE DAYS IN A ROW. THE DEALERSHIP IS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THIS PROBLEM. THEY DID TELL ME THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKE SWITCH FOR SOME MODELS BUT MY VIN# IS NOT SHOWING A RECALL. I WILL NEED TO BRING IN THE CAR WHEN IT ACTUAL LOCKS IN GEAR. *TR | |
