The incident started August 15, 2025, I was driving my car and the traction light came on I stopped and turned it off. I proceeded to drive it after that and came home. Then I noticed my brake lights were constantly on so I took a piece of cardboard and folded it in a few folds and put it between the brake pedal and the brake switch it turned it off. I then proceeded the next day to drive my car it was doing fine until my caliper seized on my rotor and left me stuck on the side of the road, I then called a mobile mechanic he came out replaced the caliper on the left front driver side it still did not unseize my rotor for my caliper to move freely so he installed a new master cylinder it worked for 2 days then I was always driving it felt like the tire was falling off the car a lot of shaking and bouncing. So I parked it that unfortunately sees the caliper on the rotor again three times. I had a new caliper put on it worked for a week my traction light was off. And then my traction light came back on as I was driving it seized up again I've replaced a lot of fuses, new masters cylinder, new caliper, new brake switch. I'm at a loss help me!!.
Due to the recall of the abs fuse I believe it has caused a electrical short and that's why my junction box does not work, also I had problems with slow acceleration almost causing me to get hit.
The contact owns a 2013 Hyundai Accent. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle the vehicle had experienced unintended acceleration on several occasions. After parking the vehicle in the garage and switching to the park position the vehicle had experienced unintended acceleration and crashed into the back wall of the garage. The cause of the failure was not determined. No injuries were reported. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but no assistance was offered. The vehicle was examined by an independent mechanic but the no cause no problem was found. The failure mileage was 2,154.
Once I am driving on the highway the car seems to loose power almost like if the car wants to shut off the rmp goes low then the check engine light has turned on. I have taken it for its service on time and no issues but the good year rep told me the error code they received was p0326 which is the knock sensor and now the engine light went away but it has happened twice so far within the last two months.
Takata recall: I had took my car into the dealership multiple times while it was under warranty because it gets stuck when shifting gears and won't pick up the power when accelerating. While the on the highway it drives horrible and the steering is unpredictable. Each time that I took it into the hyunadai dealership they can't figure out what wrong with it. While it was still under warranty I did take it to other places to see what they would say and they all noticed the issue and stated that it appears that it's with the transmission. I did contact hyuandai directly and they refused to fix the problem and now the car is out of warranty and I am screwed!.
