1 Battery Cable problem of the 2008 Hyundai Entourage

Failure Date: 03/07/2014

While driving on interstate 40 in memphis, TN, approximately 2:30 pm on March 07, 2014, the esc indicator light became illuminated on the dash-board. My attempts to extinguish the illuminated esc light numerous times failed to reset or extinguished the esc light. Upon arriving home about 3:30 pm, I parked my 2008 Hyundai Entourage, turned-off the engine and restarted the engine. The illuminated indicator esc light did not inappropriately illuminate. I inspected the exterior lights only to learn all of the rear lights were still illuminated with the engine turned-off and in park. My efforts to turn-off the rear lights failed. I was instructed to disconnect the positive battery terminal and bring my 2008 Hyundai Entourage in for inspection and repairs at a Hyundai dealership. After I reconnected the battery cable on Tuesday, March 11, 2014, the esc indicator light reappeared (became illuminated) again. After another Hyundai motor America dealership inspected and repaired my 2008 Hyundai Entourage, it was learned that the previous Hyundai dealership performing the “recall and repair” mechanical work, “jerry-rigged” (to fix an object (usually mechanical) to a working condition in a haphazard way. Also known as doing a macgyver on it), or repaired my electronic stability control (esc) system in a manner inconsistent or contrary to Hyundai motor America manufacturer specifications. The Hyundai dealership intentionally and purposefully used parts that would fail and put my safety in question. In view of how I was treated by professional staff at that dealership during my seven (7) hour ordeal, I believe the dealership’s action was an act of purposeful sabotage and criminal negligence, designed to put my personal safety in question.

2 Battery Cable problem of the 2007 Hyundai Entourage

Failure Date: 06/02/2013

Driving home last night my esc off/on light came on. I didn't know what this meant, but kept driving. Upon arrival at home my brake lights would not come off. The only thing that would make them go off is disconnecting the battery cable. Upon further test the brake lights stay on while driving as well so the individual behind me would not be able to tell whether or not I was about to stop. I called the dealer and the 800 number in regards to a recall that I saw on the NHTSA website that may be related to the issue and they say my vehicle is not impacted by this recall and that I need to take it in to the dealer. The issue seems amazingly similar to the 2009 recall.
