    In october of this year, my 2011 hyundai santa fe lost all acceleration and the malfunction light came on while i was in the left lane of a major highway going the speed limit of 70 mph. I was able to pull over to the right and get to safety, but it was a very dangerous situation and i and many others could have been killed. The same thing happened in 2012 and they supposedly fixed it. Since the first incident,…

When this happened the panel would light up like christmas and everything including the brakes would cease to work. I have to coast to a safe location (if possible) to turn off…

    Since i received my suv in 2011 i've experienced 3 vehicular cut-offs while driving. The cut-off always occurs during a slow moving turn, whether going left or right. I would start turning or switching lanes in one case and the car will stall. All panel lights would come on, the steering would shut-down so i cant control the vehicle and the brakes shut-down as well. I have to coast to a stop and place in park. This…
