| Description of the problem | On two separate occasions, my 2012 hyundai santa fe stalled, for no apparent reason, causing loss of steering, wheel control, and brakes. On the first occasion, i was driving through a mall parking lot. While making a left turn and attempting to drive down a row of parking spots, my car stalled and i was unable to turn the steering wheel, brake or guide the vehicle. On the second occasion, i was turning left down the street to my home. Again, without warning, the car stalled, various light eliminated on the dash, and i lost complete control of the vehicle. I had no advanced warning and the car otherwise seemed to be running normally. |
