5 hours into a 6 hours highway drive, no issues have occurred, approaching a flyover at I-10e and the beltway east I was doing 70mph, about halfway up northbound approach I lost acceleration, all warning lights on dash appeared to illuminate, the radio continued to play, appears that power steering continued to work. After coasting down flyover I pulled to the right, put the car in park and it started up fine, I drove off the beltway to the feeder/service road and this happened once more. I pulled into parking lot and was able to put in park and start with no issue. Neither time did I ever see a constant warning light of any kind on my dash. The car has 99k miles and I am the only owner, taken to dealer 95 percent of time for maintenance.
This car has so many recalls its scary. I've had my car checked multiple times for recalls from the seatbelt to the engine bearings. My engine light came on a few months ago and I've noticed this car doesn't hold oil well and I have to constantly check it. I was leaving a store on a main highway and my car statred8to jerk. A few moments later, the warning lights on my dashboard were on. I pulled off the ride and tried to park and the car wouldn't stop! I had to put the car in park in order for the car to not keep rolling down the road. The car will run while in neutral but not while in drive. The scariest thing was I thought I was going to hit a building not far from where I parked. Thank god I thought quick. I'm disappointed in the Hyundai brand. Never had I had so many issues with a car. All the repairs are super expensive for the inconvenience customers have. I like my car but with so many different recalls and issues every 6-12 months shows poor quality and its unsafe to operate. I'm unhappy I purchased this car and found 4 open recalls after it was off the lot.

Just purchased this vehicle off a lot two days ago and ran a VIN to see if its all legit after I get it home. Two recalls came up and on one it states no remedy for the seat belts and neither one has been taken care of, where does this leave me at and what do I need to do, I paid cash money for this car and only two days this shows up, can the car dealer be held responsible?.

I was driving a new 2013 Hyundai Sonata in a parking area, approaching a parking space for a straight-in parking facing a building. My speed was about 10mph. I braked continuously to slow down and stop, but nothing happened. The car went through the parking space and crashed into the brick wall facade of the building. The air bags did not deploy. The brick wall was not damaged. I had about 5 minor bruises on my right leg, and two below umbilicus (seat belt area). I also suffered from fright and emotional distress. A nearby pedestrian was cut on the ankle by crash debris that projected out sideways from the impact. The debris also scratched a car in the adjacent parking space. My insurance adjustor said that the car was a total loss from the damage.
