| Description of the problem | My car battery light went on. I replaced the battery 2x, replaced the alternator, checked the ground and all connections. My battery light flashes, then goes off then my seatbelt light blinks and goes off and my windshield wipers are not getting the power to wipe and the rear defroster turns off every time the battery light flashes. Ive been to 3 mechanics and they all say bring it to hyundai. When i brought it they said there was no recall so i left the service room and am now on the nhtsa site. All of this is while both stationary and in motion |
