Accent

  • 38,000 miles
Was driving my car on the highway and my speedometer kicked off. I was in motion and then the ABS, break and traction lights popped up and my speedometer went to 0 even though I was traveling at about 70mph. This is dangerous and poses a real threat to safety. It has happened many times.

Whenever the vehicle sits in tempatures below 51 degrees for more then a few hours when it is started the stability management light the and light and the break light are all on plus the and and stability management don't work. The speedometer the fuel gauge and the odometer don't track properly if at all I'm very concerned about it since I had it into both ron thinking Hyundai in gresham and gladstone several times last winter with no result they just keep saying they either can't duplicate the issue or they don't have the information to fix the vehicle cause no-one knows what's causing the problem the keep seeking help from the tech hotline and getting no result from the suggestions this is a major safety hazard seeing as the problem persists for random periods of time while being driven between 30 minutes to 4 hours

The contact owns a 2016 Hyundai Accent. While driving, all of the instrument panel indicators illuminated for 15 seconds and then turned off. As a result, the mileage had inadvertently reset. The contact called an unknown local dealer and was informed that the vehicle could be diagnosed only if the failure recurred. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 32,000.
