*problem parts:I only could check 1 box- should be brakes and steering too *adas: lane keeping assistance too over the course of two days, my 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe experienced a serious electrical and safety system failure. It started with the blind spot monitoring lights flickering in the side mirrors and warnings for forward collision avoidance (disabled), abs, electronic stability control, downhill brake control, parking brake & brake fluid (blinking red). The rearview camera failed and the screen remained on the radio display when in reverse. The lane keeping assist indicator shifted from white/green to orange. The next morning, I had trouble opening the vehicle with the key fob. Auto hold, master warning, forward collision, esc, and downhill brake control lights were now steadily on. The mph numbers on the dash were blurred, and a message appeared saying “put in p” even though the vehicle was already parked. The accessories light came on, but the engine would not start. Interior lights continued to work. I had to manually open the car and start it by pressing the fob to the button. While trying to exit a parking garage (where a tow truck couldn’t reach me), more warnings appeared: awd, low tire pressure, malfunction indicator (not engine), and power steering. I felt tightness in the wheel and had to pull over. The temp and gas gauges dropped to zero along with the rpms. I have a newer car battery and recently replaced fob batteries, so this was not a simple battery failure. I’ve reported the issue to Hyundai consumer affairs. No recall appears under my VIN, despite similar failures being widely reported in this model. I’m a single parent who typically drives with two young children, including one with serious medical needs. I rely heavily on this vehicle for medical travel. The vehicle has since been towed to a Hyundai dealership for diagnostics. This is a serious safety concern and could have led to a loss of control or failure in an emergency situation.
We are experiencing exactly what is listed in Hyundai TSB #21-be-005h: intermittent abnormal camera image display conditions on the instrument cluster when the turn left signal is turned on or the radio screen when transmission is in reverse.
Blind spot system randomly fails to detect vehicle on right side, I have videos of failure. Dealer unable to find problem cause, contacted Hyundai customer service, waiting for response.
