Description of the problem | When turning right on a raining day, loss of power - no steering or brakes. 2006 tuscon would run radio would be on - battery light and brake lights on - 10 seconds after managing to get out of traffics way - car would move. Hyundai foxed the car by replacing sensors and some other work resulting in over a $1000. Prior major service was serpentine belt and chain replacement on service recommendations - had no issues before the chain was replaced. Ever since - the transmission had to reset for hesitation between 20 and 40 mph and the additional sensor work. Hyundai would not give me any warranty work as my 6 years had just expired. I am taking the car back in tomorrow for the same issue. While driving today in a sudden down pour - the first one since i had the car fixed that i have had to drive in and the incident occurred again except this time i was driving and not turning. Water seemed to get under the engine and something is getting wet. I requested a rental car and i am leaving for vacation on saturday to the shore. If its not fixed this time - i may have to consider a new car and i just paid it off. |
