| Description of the problem | On three different occasions the dash flashed "check tpms" meaning check air in the tires. On all 3 occasions the car would not go into gear. The next occasion the check tpms came on so i put air in the tires and drove around the corner to reset the tire pressure monitor (computer). Upon coming around the corner to park the car the check tpms warning came on again the car powered down and i coasted to park. The next morning i called the dealership to have the car checked i was told from jared that the technician did a software update and that " he thinks, maybe, might have fixed the problem. At this point i did not pick up the car because they could not guarantee the car had been fixed and that it will not die while driving around hyundai service department said they were not sure because they could not duplicate the problem i had with the car. I left the car there contacted hyndai corporate where they opened a case #9327831 .. They in turn had a fast team working on my car and they are not sure if the car is fixed or not because they could not duplicate the same problem. The have had my car for a month now still have not been able to find out what the problem is. I was told it does not fall under lemon law unless the car does the same thing again. But i do not know if the car is fixed 100% it only has 12,513 miles on it. Car would not go into drive the gear shift would not move to where i could drive the car. |
