Brake Fluid Leak problems of the 2014 Hyundai Sonata

Driving in light rain on normal pavement st louis county. Approached stop sign at end of steep hill. Applied brakes lightly and well in advance but car was not stopping. Realized that engine had stopped so nothing was working. Car began shaking violently as if brakes were trying to grab. Finally came to a stop in the middle of intersection - fortunately nobody was in front of us are attempting to cross intersection in other direction. Car was completely dead. Tried to restart but nothing. Had to move car so tried to start again - starter did not crank at all, but suddenly engine was running as if it had never stopped and all power was restored. Drove immediately to dealer thinking it was something to do with engine recall. Was able to get to the dealership about 5 miles away with no incident. After 3 days of being at dealer we were told that something in the brake fluid "module" had broken lose and brake fluid leaked into wire harness causing extreme corrosion. They believe the engine never actually stopped running, but rather the electrical signal was momentarily interrupted due to the corrosion. It was going to be a $5000 fix. We did not have car repaired. Dealership said they would send it to auction. This car must to be pulled off the road as it is a hazard to anyone who purchases it, even "as is". Reported to consumer affairs at Hyundai on 11/6/19. Spoke to a representative 11/14/19 and was told car would be taken out of service. I am reporting here to insure that it is indeed taken out of service. We could have been killed or seriously injured. Wife drives about 35 miles per day and it could have easily happened while she was driving to work.
