1 Dashboard Failed problem of the 2009 Hyundai Genesis

Failure Date: 10/28/2013

While driving my 2009 Hyundai Genesis I was motioned by driver behind me of no brake lights I quickly pulled over and engine running and sure enough my cousin who was with me said I had no brake lights,I the went to the nearest auto parts place turned engine off, and asked the manager what to do. His suggestion was check the fuses,which I did, they where fine. At that point I decided to drive home,car won't start won't come out of park and warned steering locked . I then called roadside assistance provided free of charge by Hyundai. The driver of the tow truck could not start the car could not turn wheel he then when under the dash broke steering lock mechanism and was able to turn the wheel,car still wont start. After all the repairs where done I was charged $1461. 01 for replacement of lock assembly ,diode,bolt safety lock,wire jumper. I feel this all thing was due to brake light failure and the rest of the damage by the tow truck driver. We are in litigation.

2 Dashboard Failed problem of the 2009 Hyundai Genesis

Failure Date: 03/31/2011

(electrial issues) reported to dealer that radio crackles and stop working as well as the blue tooth that only works maybe 1/8 of the time. They found "no problems" (on my first of 5 trips to the dealer within 7 months back up camera stopped working. (replaced) steering wheel stuck up in the high position driver seat cushion buckled and had to be replaced, (replaced in Feb 2011) fuel gauge/warning light failed which caused me to run out of gas. (no warning lights came on and the miles to go states I had 56 miles) part is on order for radio or radio replaced not sure as of 9/27/11. Hoping all this will also fix the blue tooth as the dealer states this is no problem. Dash light go out. So after only 7 months of owning this car, the car has been back to the dealer at least 5 times (with problems), the most recent, 9/26/11 I took car in and told them to keep it until all fixed (they have had the cars for 3 days so far). The problem is that it is electrical and unless they see it they can't fix it. With each of failure this car has I would document with a picture to proved I wasn't crazy!! so whats the deal with the blue tooth, its not my phone as it is paired and connected. The only way it will work is that if I unpair my phone while in the car before starting, start the car, pair the phone, connect the phone, wait 5 min and I might get lucky than it will work. I can dial thru the car, shows who I dialing, my phone say blue tooth on, but will not work, display pad, will show repeated that the call has ended, and flash back and forth to dial pad and message call has ended,while I had to switch from blue tooth to speaker and talk directly to hand held phone. When a call comes my phone rings, the speaker in the car rings, but the bluetooth is unable to p/u the car. So frustating!.
