| 2008 | SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:SWITCHES:BRAKE LIGHT | THE ESC OFF LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD OF MY 2008 HYUNDAI SONATA COMES ON AFTER IT HAS BEEN DRIVEN FOR A FEW MILES. WHEN THIS OCCURS, THE REAR BRAKE LIGHTS STOP WORKING. IF I SHUT THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTART THE CAR, THE ESC OFF LIGHT IS UNLIT AND THE BRAKE LIGHTS FUNCTION NORMALLY. I UNDERSTAND THERE WAS A RECALL ON 2006 AND 2007 SONATAS FOR THIS VERY PROBLEM (NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 09V280000) THAT INVOLVED A DEFECTIVE STOP LAMP SWITCH. MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND I MUST FIX THIS PROBLEM AS SOON AS POSSIBLE DUE TO EXTREME SAFETY CONCERNS FOR MY FAMILY. *KB |
| 2011 | ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL | I NOTICED THAT THE ESC LIGHT WAS ON. I PULLED OVER AND PUT THE CAR IN PARK. WHEN READING WHAT ESC LIGHT WAS I KNEW I COULD PROCEED WITHOUTH DANGER. I THEN TRIED TO SHIFT AND I COULDN'T. I HAD TO KEEP TURNING THE CAR ON AND OFF UNTIL I COULD. THIS HAPPENED MULTIPLES TIMES. TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY FIXED IN. SUPPOSEDLY WAS A BRAKE SENSOR ISSUE. *TT |
