PARKWAY HYUNDAI (24050 CREEKSIDE RD, SANTA CLARITA, CA 91355) WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE AND THAT THE CONTACT WOULD RECEIVE A SECOND NOTICE WHEN IT BECAME AVAILABLE. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED, THE VEHICLE STALLED, AND A CLICKING NOISE WAS HEARD COMING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO PULL THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND CALLED AAA FOR A TOW.

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS CAR JERKS AND REMOVES ITSELF FROM CRUISE CONTROL AND RPM GAUGE DROPS TO ZERO AND STAYS THERE (HAS OCCURRED WITHOUT CRUISE CONTROL BEING ON AS WELL).

EARLIER THIS YEAR (2019) I RECEIVED AN IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL (INTERIM NOTICE) FOR MY 2013 HYUNDAI TUCSON. THIS IS FOR CAMPAIGN 181, WHICH IS AN OIL PRESSURE SWITCH REPLACEMENT.
