    In Dec of last year my cars dash lights started flashing no matter which gear I tried the gear would flash on the dash,when I called my extended warranty "car shield ",they recommended that I take it to a repair shop in nearby city and have a diagnostic test performed. I did so,in which after testing they said it was something on side of transmission and they weren't equipped to perform the repairs and needed to be taken to dealership instead. I picked up the vehicle and same issue was present of course, so I had it towed to a dealership and then was contacted by them that they could not do a diagnostic test until the battery was replaced because it was not starting, so I brought a battery and put it on in the place of my old one.I made sure that the vehicle was going to start before leaving and it did with no problem, so I turned it off and was contacted by the dealership saying that it was extensive damage, and car shield had to send out their own personal investigator and they refus...

    Since the make of this car and it’s further year generations people can complained about the a/c control switch burning out and actually it melts the inside of the part. Upon replacing it will short out again and again. So my people have called Hyundai over this issue and they 22 years after my car was made still have not issued a recall. Please someone do something about this!!!PLEASE!!! They don’t sell a replacement part and Hyundai is making 200+ just for the part they “need” to replace (whole unit) for a $5 part of the unit. As someone who lives in AZ it can be fatal to not have A/C. Additionally the stearing controls have also shorted out. This while card electronics are a hazard and a money pit!
