Fake Place and fake appointment. They give me an appointment after 1 month and I went to do the recall on the airbag unit they told me no part.Very bad experience

I purchased the car 9/1/21. 4 months ago I repaired an issue with the fuel pump and fuel rail. Now it's doing the same thing. Code P0087. I looked up to see if there were any recalls and there aren't any OPEN recalls; however the recall #180 is the issue I am having with my car. Would this be covered under the #180 recall?

The contact owns a 2012 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 50 MPH, the brake pedal was depressed and the vehicle began to stall. The contact stated that the accelerator pedal was then depressed but the vehicle would not accelerate as needed. The contact stated that the check engine warning light and the hybrid engine warning message was displayed and advised the driver to “Safely Stop and Do Not Drive” the vehicle. The contact pulled over and turned off the vehicle. The vehicle was restarted and the contact parked the vehicle in a parking lot and turned off the vehicle and waited for a while. The contact then restarted the vehicle and the check engine warning light remained illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer where it was diagnosed that the engine control module (ECM) needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired and remained at the dealer awaiting the parts for the repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was opened. The approximate failure mileage was 130,000.

I purchased my 2012 Hyundai Sonata on 4-7-22. The car has had no mechanical work, no accidents and has less than 1000 miles. On 9-16-22 i was driving my car home and was less than five minutes away on the highway. My car began to decelerate, I attempted to stop at a red light but my car would not give me control and the brake was rock solid and would not push down. I also could not turn the car off via the start button as the car would not let me. My engine ESC light came on the dashboard in red and the engine completely halted. To get to safety as i was on the highway with oncoming traffic i steered the car to the right on the ramp .I exited the vehicle as it began to smoke ,i thought it would catch fire so i moved far away and called my boyfriend for help and a tow truck to get the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to College park Hyundai 9500 Baltimore Ave., College park, MD 20740.I looked up my car and noticed there are recalls for this engine and a few other recalls as i told the dealership. The car is currently being inspected and the dealer said they would get back to me. Once the service department received the car they told me the recall most likely will not effect my vehicle. I don't believe that to be true and i was put in danger because of this engine issue with Hyundai.

My vehicle stopped in December 2020. The dealer, Hyundai of PR, did not issue a recall for this issue. I could have been driving on the highway and loss power. THIS IS DANGEROUS. The manufacturer should be Required to notify all affected Hyundai Sonata owners via all types of media. If I hadn't known about this recall I would have paid for an engine out of my pocket.

Brake lights stay on when the car is turned off. It is draining the battery and I cannot drive the car. No Hyundai dealers near me have availability until October or after.

When driving at higher speeds 50+mph, hybrid battery warning flashes, alarm beeps, warning states to safely pull over and stop. Warning goes away after turning the car on and off a few times. Dealer states they can not duplicate problem and can not diagnose. Have visited Dealer twice now with she results
