I was driving in the rain on 1/16/19 with my son, all of a sudden my car starts beeping and my dash board says stop driving now and check your charger system and after one hour it completely died, had to get towed home, now the dealer says the problem was the high voltage relay and connector that goes to the high voltage battery on the car that caused the battery to fail and charger system. Now I'm told I need to buy a new battery and I feel this should be covered b the warranty since this issued caused my battery to drain.

In September 2015 the trans. Was replaced in the car. The car was kept for 1 week for repairs. I replaced a battery 12/13/2016, and have had to have at least 12 battery problems. The radio will go out, and within a week to 2 the battery is dead, resulting in my insurance company coming out to start my car. On may 1, 2017, I had a diagnostic done, and they could not find a problem. They recommended trying to replace the radio,but were not sure it would correct the problem. A radio was purchased/replaced 8/2/17,and the problem has continued. Below are the dates of occurrences: 9/14/15-transmission- car went out while driving on highway dead battery: 1/22/16 7/30/16 10/2/16 10/13/16 12/11/16 4/30/17 7/30/17 10/16/17 1/2/18 4/18/18 I have a copy of all claim forms.

Charging system malfunctioned, complete engine and battery failure, unable to accelerate I was driving on the highway when the "ready" light started flashing on the dashboard and the battery level started dropping without the engine starting and recharging. I was then unable to accelerate the vehicle and was forced to pull over. I turned the car off and back on and the "ready" light flashed on and off then stayed off. I had the car towed to Hyundai where I was told the engine �locked up� and needed to be replaced along with the battery because it couldn't be recharged.

Charging system malfunctioned, sensors melted in valve trane, radiator elbow and fill neck blew off, complete engine failure and battery failure. I have had a problem with the "check brake" light and an alarm going off. However, when I stopped driving and had it towed to the dealership they could find nothing. Prior to this incident, I took a photo of my dash, I had 76,499 miles and the coolant meter did not read hot. I had had the coolant system flushed at 65,000 miles, and I had all oil and fluids checked again after this incident. The breakdown: three hours into a roadtrip, the a/c began blowing warm, simultaneously - the "the check brake" light and alarm came on, and the "check charging system" light came on. I lost power to accelerate (or brake well) and immediately pulled over and took a photo of my dash warnings (76919 miles). The heat sensor was in the "cool" half, the battery gage showed no power. Battery so low key would not start car. I had the car towed. "tech found that elbow and radiator have holes in them vehicle overheated causing engine to blow. " tiffany richardson said "tech believe vehicle was driven with low coolant level causing vehicle to run hot melting sensors in the valve train and the pipes to fail. " the tech is wrong, the coolant system was inspected and flushed at 65,000 miles, and was not due for another inspection. I had had coolant levels checked less than 1000 miles ago, and the heating sensor on dash did not read hot, at the point of breakdown or after a road trip 500 miles ago. Others had the problem at 3000 miles! it's the hpcu. The power for both electric motors is routed through hpcu. The inverters allow the a/c motors to be driven by d/c batteries. This caused the "check charging system" error. $15,000. 00 fix. I owe $4000. 100,000 warranty has denied it & I am original owner. Hpcu recalled b4? .
