NHTSA Complaint #10820784 — 2008 HYUNDAI VERACRUZ

"ABS FAILURE" AND "ALTERNATOR RECALL 121" THE BREAK, ABS, ESC AND CHK ENGINE LIGHTS ALL CAME ON AND STAY ON. FROM TIME TO TIME THE TPMS LIGHT WILL ALSO COME ON AND SPEEDOMETER WILL BE AT ZERO WHEN DRIVING ALONG THE HIGHWAY. THE CAR WILL FROM TIME TO TIME COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN, EVEN WHILE DRIVING ALONG HIGHWAY, WHICH IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH AND DIAGNOSTICS BY HYUNDAI IT SEEMS 2 ITEMS ARE THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE PROBLEMS, 1) FAULTY ABS MODULE THAT WAS BEEN REPORTED BY 100'S OF PEOPLE AND 2) FAULTY ALTERNATOR THAT AFFECTS THE LOSS IN POWER, AGAIN WITH 100'S OF COMPLAINTS. THERE IS A RECALL FOR ALTERNATOR BUT NOT THE ABS MODULE. THIS IS A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR AND WITH ONLY 70000 MILES, THIS SHOULD BE REPLACED/FIXED UNDER HYUNDAI USA WARRANTY.
