Vsa Warning Light On Problems of Hyundai Tucson

Both the downhill brake light and stability track control light came on at the same time. My car wouldn't get out of park, or when I got it in drive, it wouldn't go back into park. Taking it to the shop today, noticed it might be from a brake switch.

While driving at approx. 45 mph, I noticed that the electronic stability control light was on and the downhill brake control indicator (red) was on. I returned home, shut down the engine, restarted it, and the problem seemed to go away. Upon returning home the next day from a trip, while parking the car, both indicators came on, and the vehicle would not allow me to put the transmission into park. I left the transmission in neutral, and shut the engine down. I then turned the key on, put my foot on the accelerator pedal (to the floor) for 3 seconds, turned the key on, and the problem was gone. . . . For now.

When driving to and from work (am/pm) the dbc (downhill brake control) and esc (electronic stability control) indicator lights will turn on and remain on until I stop and turn off the ignition.

When driving to and from work (am/pm) the dbc (downhill brake control) and esc (electronic stability control) indicator lights will turn on and remain on until I stop and turn off the ignition. When I stop, I am unable to shift the gear into park. While in a panic, I made several attempts to put the vehicle in park and each attempt was unsuccessful. So I put it in neutral to turn the ignition off, waited a few minutes, then restarted it and put it in park in order to remove the ignition key. I may have to try this several times before I am able to shift into park. It has happened several times since the first date. Also, when I shift gears a loud mechanical clunk sounds which jerks the entire vehicle. This even happens when I start off driving and it is very annoying and scary. I have to restart the vehicle several times before it finally stop. Then after about three days it start all over again. I see this as a danger because I commute 56 miles one way to work and I thought I was purchasing a dependable vehicle but apparently not.

While driving in stop and go traffic to and from work (am/pm) the dbc (downhill brake control) and esc (electronic stability control) indicator lights will turn on and remain on until I stop and turn off the ignition. However, when I stop, I am unable to shift the gear into park. I am forced to put it in neutral to turn the ignition off, wait a few minutes, then start the car and put it in park in order to remove the ignition key. I may have to try this several times before I am able to shift into park. It has happened three days in a row. The dealership is unable to duplicate this problem. They did tell me that this is a known problem with the break switch for some models but my VIN# is not showing a recall. I will need to bring in the car when it actual locks in gear.

My stop lamp switch failed may 2009 and failed again July 2012. Called Hyundai today and they say my VIN is not covered by the recall listed below. Since the part has failed twice I would like to know why my 2007 Tucson is not covered by the recall. Since I have had the problem twice I think the recall should be expanded to cover my car and possibly others. Posted: Apr 21, 2009 10:06 a. M. Hyundai motor corp has recalled more than half a million vehicles from model years 2005 through 2008 due to an issue that could cause brake lights to light at inappropriate times, or fail to light when needed. In a defect notice filed with the national highway traffic safety administration, the automaker explains, "the stop lamp switch in the affected vehicles may malfunction. A malfunctioning stop lamp switch may cause the brake lights not to illuminate when the brake pedal is depressed, or may cause the brake lights to remain illuminated when the brake pedal is released. " it is also possible that a malfunctioning stop lamp switch could "affect the operation of the brake-transmission interlock feature," making the vehicle unable to shift out of park. "it may also cause the electronic stability control (esc) malfunction light to illuminate, and it may not deactivate the cruise control when the brake pedal is depressed. " Hyundai dealers will replace the stop lamp switch in all affected vehicles, free of charge. Hyundai will begin contacting owners through the mail this week. Those who wish to make their own repair arrangements may contact Hyundai at 1(800) 633-5151.
