Description of the problem	I purchased a used 2015 hyundai sonata with 43k miles. I have had it for three months with minor problems such as sluggish acceleration, hard deceleration when removing foot from gas pedal, and a noisy engine. However, on 4-8-2016 at about 7:30 am, i was attempting a left turn on a busy metropolitan street when the 2015 hyundai sonata shut down suddenly, completely turned off! All the warning lights on the dash lit up like a christmas tree and then went dead. The 2015 sonata came to a stop, and there was a truck approaching at a high speed rate that had to swerve around me to prevent a collision with me. I was lucky the driver was paying attention. This problem is very dangerous and it is just a matter of time before someone is killed due to this problem, which seems to be occurring in many 2015 hyundai sonata vehicles. I believe hyundai must know about this and hyundai probably knows what is causing this safety issue with the 2015 sonata. Hyundai or nhtsa need to recall the 2015 hyundai sonata vehicles asap!! If nothing else tell the owners what the problem is so that they can repair it on their own dime!
