 Description of the problemI've driven this car since 2011 and have not had an issue like this before. Last week, (october, 1, 2017). While driving down an off-ramp at ~35 mph, my 2010 hyundai sonata's esc off light came on and would not go off ; at the same time my cruise control has stopped working. When i turn the car off and back on again, the esc off light is off, but within 5-7 minutes of driving it comes back on again and stays on and the cruise control does not work now regardless of if the esc off light is on or not. This occurs now every time i drive the car. At first the esc off light is off, and every time after the first 5-7 minutes of driving it lights up. (and pushing the esc off button does not affect it.) this occurs regardless of where i am driving or how (on on a two-lane, on the highway, in my driveway, turning, stopping, accelerating etc. The esc off light stays on and the cruise control light comes on when i push the cc button, but when i try to push the button to engage the speed set, nothing happens, it will not engage.) i took it to the only hyundai dealership within 100 miles of where i live, and i was told it would be $120. 00 just to diagnose the problem. The csr that set up my appointment said he thought it might be the break light switch. I researched the issue myself, and apparently there has been a massive recall of various 2007-2011 hyundai's (sonata's included) that had faulty break light switches and needed to be replaced. I was never made aware of this recall/defect. Now, after 7 years and 133,000 miles (i'm way over the warranty period) and have to pay $ that i do not have just to get it "diagnosed" not to mention how much it will cost to "fix" the problem. Does the recall still cover my vehicle? And if not, is there a way i can order the part myself and replace it to see if that corrects the issue? -desperate in tn-

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
