| Description of the problem | My car just stalled on me yesterday april 6th, 2017 when i was driving to a friends house, on the street in motion. I was in mid-drive and it just stalled, all the dash lights went on and i couldn't accelerate anymore. I had to coast all the way to a gas station, barely making it. Turned the key to the off position and back on and it just turned on again. Took it to harbor hyundai this morning and they first said there was nothing wrong with it, then they told be the oil light went on and it could be engine failure and i should sell my car for parts or drive it until it fails. And what a coincidence that this morning a recall on 2013 - 2014 hyundais with engine stalling. So hyundai isn't doing anything for me. I need help, i think my car year should be included in this recap as well. |
