Description of the problem | I took my 2018 hyundai sonta se in for its first oil change with 3564 miles on it. They did a computer update as part of a recall. I drove less than ( miles from the dealership, went to pull out from a stop light. It started miss firing and the check engine light started flashing. I went back to the dealer. They said it had a code and tgey had to call hyundai to find out what to do. They gave me a loner and told me the wiring harness had too much interference/static in it and they had to order a new one. Very hard to believe a computer update would cause the wiring harness to go bad. |
