Your car's safety features—including the backup camera, electronic power steering, traction control, lane assist, adaptive cruise control, and forward collision avoidance—are cutting out completely and then suddenly coming back online. When power steering suddenly restores after losing all these features, your car may swerve into other lanes or off the road. This happens repeatedly in cold weather, and you have dashboard warning light photos documenting the issue.

On two separate occasions, one at @9500 miles and the next at @19,000 miles the car engine started shaking and lost all power while driving. Unable to steer car. Both times towed to dealer and they say it needs new spark plugs and need to clean cylinders. They do not know root cause of problem and have not done any testing of the engine, no leak/compression testing. Dealer refuses to cover cost of repairs saying out of warranty but cannot give any assurances this won’t happen again. I’ve requested they contact Hyundai engineers to find out what’s causing this and, to date, they’ve done nothing. Vehicle is unsafe to drive and is still at dealership with no reason to underlying issue.
