Consumer Description

THE ENGINE WOULD DIE AND NOT RESTART WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. THE VEHICLE WOULD THEN BE COASTING DOWN THE ROAD WITH NO POWER BRAKES OR STEERING. THIS MADE CONTROLLING AND STOPPING THE VEHICLE VERY DIFFICULT AND DANGEROUS. NUMEROUS VISITS TO THE HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP, THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS, AND MANY REPLACED PARTS LATER, THE HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP FINALLY DETERMINED THAT AN APPARENT DEFECT TO THE CHARCOAL CANISTER ASSEMBLY AND CANISTER CLOSE VALVE IN THE FUEL SYSTEM WERE CAUSING THE ISSUE. *TR
