NHTSA Complaint #11193408 — 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA HYBRID

AROUND A YEAR AGO (FEB 14, 2018), I RECEIVED A MESSAGE "HYBRID SYSTEM WARNING, PLEASE STOP NOW". MY CAR SHUT DOWN AND THANK GOD, I WAS PULLING INTO MY APARTMENT COMPLEX. MY CAR WAS INSPECTED AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE TPS SYSTEM. THAT WAS REPLACED AND I WAS ON MY WAY. OVER 7 MONTHS AGO (JULY 2018), I RECEIVED THE SAME MESSAGE; "HYBRID SYSTEM WARNING, PLEASE STOP VEHICLE NOW". AFTER THE WARNING, MY CAR STOPPED IMMEDIATELY AND THIS TIME THE ROAD WAS CLEAR AND I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER THORNTON ROAD HYUNDAI INSPECTED MY CARE AGAIN, THIS TIME THEY STATED IT WAS THE MOTOR. AFTER OVER $5000 WORTH OF WORK HERE IT IS APRIL 2019 AND THE SAME WARNING. THIS TIME I WAS STRANDED ON A BUSY HIGHWAY. ONCE THE TOW TRUCK GUY GOT THERE, HE ESCORTED ME TO HIS TRUCK TO BE SAFE. I HAVE LOOKED INTO THIS WARNING OVER A YEAR AND NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW THE PROBLEM. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AND ALL HYUNDAI DEALERS SHOULD BE MADE AWARE OF WHAT THIS WARNING IS. WE AS HYUNDAI OWNERS NEED ANSWERS AND HELP. I CANNOT AFFORD TO PUT MONEY INTO A CAR WHEN THE PROBLEM IS ONLY BEING PATCHED UP.
