Description of the problem	After a tire change the hazard light and tire light came on. I was advised to take it to the shop and see if the sensor needs to be reset. I took it in a shop and the tire light went away but the hazard light remained. After about a week with the hazard light on, i was driving in the morning around 7:30am the car started to brake itself while driving about 30mph on an austin town street. I pulled over due to risk of getting rear ended. I was able to drive about 10 feet before it did it again and i parked. The "check hybrid engine" light then came on. I sat for about 20 min and tried to turn it on and the "check hybrid battery light came on again and this time the car wouldnt turn on. I called a tow truck and had them tow it to happy hybrid in austin tx and was advised it may be my hybrid battery generator as my hybrid battery was at 5%. They could not fix it but it should be covered under warranty and i had to have it towed to the hyundai dealership in south austin tx on south ih-35. It has been there now for 2 weeks and i am without a vehicle. The dealership stated this may be related to 2 recalls i have on my vehicle but they are not sure. I purchased this car february 2018 and it is now march 2020. Only 2 years.
