| Stability control warning light would come on, car wouldn't shift out of 2nd. made 3 or 4 trips to the dealer for that to get fixed. next, with foot on brake, car in park and fob in car, the car would not start. when you hit the start button, it would just go to accessory mode. two trips to dealer for that one. waiting on a tow now for 2nd time in two months with the latest issue - while driving, car just dies and won't restart. the first time, was told it was a 'loose connection to fuel pump.' very scary! thank god i wasn't on the freeway either time this happened! | |||

| With electronic stability control engaged, my new hyundai genesis coupe locked the brakes while i was turning into a parking lot. this happened one other time while turning into my driveway. on numerous other occasions the abs has been engaged when making a turn into a slightly raised driveway, but not to the extent that the brakes actually lock; i am able to drive through the braking action. the hyundai field service rep drove my car and was unable to get the brakes to lock, however, on at least four occasions he got the abs to engage while entering a driveway, accompanied by loud grinding noises. he stated that this was normal operation due to driveway slope angle combined with wheel base and suspension characteristics. he went on to say that he could get every genesis coupe on the lot to do the same thing. therefore, they felt no repairs were warranted even though i had told them that the brakes had actually locked up, placing me in a dangerous situation. a recent autoblog.com article noted the severe deficiencies in the hyundai genesis coupe electronic stability control that mirror my own experience. | |||
