| Description of the problem | This ihas happened 4-5 times. I was driving on a street, thank god, i was not on hwyway, engine just stalled and streering wheel locked. I was hard but, somehow managed to get on the curbe and avoid a crash. If this would have happened on freeway, it would have been fatal. I think, hyundai sure know this problem exist in genesis too. It is same problem ( symptoms) as described in hyundai's sonata recall. I don't know what is hyundia waiting for. It is a serious problem with a $50,000 car . I have no trust on this car anymore. This would be my last hyundai. I know, if i take car to dealership , i would hear response that , no issue found. Genesis has a serious engine problem with stalling. |
