Consumer Description

WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT WITH HEADLIGHTS ON AUTO, I PUT THE TURN SIGNAL ON, AND ALL LIGHTS (INTERIOR, DASH, AND HEADLIGHTS) RANDOMLY GO OUT. THIS ALSO HAPPENS RANDOMLY AT NIGHT WHEN CHANGING LANES (USING TURN SIGNAL) AND I MUST QUICKLY TURN THEM ON MANUALLY. IT IS VERY FRIGHTENING AND HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES SO I TOOK IT TO CHANTILLY HYUNDAI AND THEY COULD NOT RECREATE IT SO DID NOTHING. THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE AND HAS BEEN REPORTED TO THE NHTSA 5 TIMES, BY DIFFERENT PEOPLE ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE.
