Consumer Description

RECONNECTING THE BATTERY AFTER SERVICING THE CAR THE VEHICLE GETS A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT P0106 CODE (P0106 MANIFOLD ABSOLUTE PRESSURE/BAROMETRIC PRESSURE CIRCUIT RANGE/PERFORMANCE). THE ENGINE RUNS NORMAL. DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS ON CRUISE CONTROL AT INTERMITTENT TIMES I EXPERIENCE A CRUISE CONTROL DISCONNECT AND TOTAL LOSS OF THROTTLE WHILE ENGINE IS STILL RUNNING. I HAVE TO COAST THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND RESTART TO GET THROTTLE CONTROL BACK THROUGH THE PEDAL. WHEN THAT HAPPENS THE VEHICLE ALSO GETS A P2110 (THROTTLE ACTUATOR CONTROL SYSTEM - FORCED LIMITED RPM LIMP HOME MODE) AND P0605 CODE (P0605 = INTERNAL CONTROL MODULE READ MEMORY (ROM) ERROR). I HAVE REPORTED THIS TO HYUNDAI. THEY RECOMMENDED I TAKE IT IN FOR SERVICE. I REPORTED IT TO THE DEALER. THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE OR SEE HISTORY IN THE COMPUTER. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE YEARS. THE CAR LOSES ALL THROTTLE CONTROL AND I AM FORCED TO COAST TO THE SHOULDER.
