| Description of the problem | Ever since the purchase of my 2008 hyundai sonata i have had problems with the tpms and esc lights/system. Over the years if i would turn the car off then back on it seemed to reset the system and the lights would go out. I did have the tpms system repaired under warranty years back and it seemed to lessen the problem however now 8/29/2014, the lights will not go off even after stopping and starting the car. I had the wheel sensors tested and they are all working. The repairs done when i first had the car took days and i remember they had to replace something behind my glove box which they said was a radio that read the signal from the wheel sensors. Seems like the same problem and i see others have the same issue with these lights. I have called the dealership (preston hyundai in boardman, oh) and am waiting for a return call. |
