| Description of the problem | Car was purchased on 9/10/2016 used. It was driven for three days. When putting the car in park this warning msg came up "hybrid system warning safely stop and do not drive!". This happened a few times the car was taken to dealership on 9/19. They could not duplicate so it was returned. I was informed if it happened again to bring it in. The warning came on again so it was taken to dealership on 10/09. They could not duplicate it again so they had it for a week tested it every way possible including driving it for a week. They called a hyundai representative and they informed them of what to watch and or look for and to no avail nothing. It was given back to me a week later and i was informed if it happens again do not turn it off bring it straight there to obtain a code. This only happens when putting it into park, and a couple of times it would not let me start the car i had to wait five min or so, push the lock/unlock on the fob, another time that did not work i had to get out of car lock it get in car lock it and then lock/unlock it from with in and it started. Not sure if all that correlated with it but it worked. |
