| Description of the problem | Yesterday, while driving the warning light symbols for the esc and dbc came on out of the blue. I was on a local road, no incline or decline, a straight level road with traffic moving at about 30 mph. Immediately the car seemed as though it did not want to go forward. I pulled over and turned the car off and on again and the warning symbols disappeared. I continued home and parked the car. While in park, the two warning symbols illuminated again with an additional warning of mil. The vehicle is still in park and a message comes across the console that there is something possibly wrong with the transmission and the vehicle could lose power. I turned it off and on again and on the 3rd try, the warning symbols disappeared. I took it to the hyundai dealer this afternoon for service and on the invoice it stated that an inhibitor switch was installed / recall completed. Now i never received notice that there was a recall for my vehicle nor can i find anything online regarding problems with this issue. |
