This car has been a headache since it went out of warranty (ironically). First it was the car wouldn't start due to an electrical problem between the alarm system and key fob. The starter was the next to go. Most recently the fuel pump went literally while I was driving the car. Fortunate I was able to make my way off the road and avoided collusion and possible physical injury. There were no warnings that there were any issues with the car, no dashboard warnings, no usual performance. The car was fine one second and completely dead the next. After incurring $300 in towing charges, first to my local mechanic who was unable to diagnose the problem because his computer couldn't read the Hyundai codes, then to the Hyundai dealership. Hyundai claims it is the fuel pump. I'll remain skeptical until they confirm the car is fully functional. I find it impossible to comprehend how a 6 year old vehicle that is impeccably maintained should have the degree of problems I have experienced over the past couple of years. Needless to say, I will not be keeping the car for long and will not be continuing my relationship with Hyundai. Unfortunate since I have been a Hyundai owner since 2001.
Hyundai is having a real issue with their fuel pumps. My car is currently in the shop for its 3rd fuel pump at 120k miles. The safety issue is how the pump goes out with no indication of an issue from the car at all. This time I was parked at a gas station, however the 2nd incident is more concerning. Then, I was traveling on the highway at approx. 70-75 mph. Without warning, the engine stopped and of course so all of the other controls from the engine. Because I had a full loss of power, I was lucky that there were no cars in the inside lane and I could move over in time to get to the side shoulder. I literally coasted to the shoulder at 20 mph. If I hadn't been able to get to the shoulder, I would have been stuck in the middle of a 4 lane highway with no way to move the car.
