Description of the problem	In 2011 i leased a 2012 hyundai genesis. On january 25. 2013 when my car suddenly stopped. I called aaa, they came out and did a diagnostic check on my battery and told me it was fine, that something in the computer, most likely the alternator was draining the battery. On june 9th 2013 while driving my vehicle in traffic at approximately 50 mph my vehicle completely shut down. I came to a stop and it started up again. I proceeded to drive approximately 3 more miles at 45 mph, my vehicle again completely shut down, no steering no brakes. After coming to a complete stop i proceeded to the nearest service station and again contacted aaa. They came out, did a check on my battery and told me the same thing, something in the system is draining the battery. On july 8th 2013 it happened again. Aaa came out jump started my car and advised me to take it to the dealership. I drove my car to planet hyundai on . W. Sahara ave. In las vegas, nevada and told them of my problem, i left the vehicle with them. The next day they told me that they replaced the battery. I made them aware of the stalling in traffic issue weeks before, i spoke with a certified tech who told me it was absolutely not a battery issue and that person called hyundai service department and told them the same thing. I contacted hyundai customer service and spoke with jacqueline who after conferring with planet hyundai told me they were unable to duplicate the problem and they could do nothing. To work with the dealership. The head of the service dept.
