2014 Hyundai Accent Electrical System Problems

I was entering highway on entrance ramp there was a loud pop and I could see plumes of smoke coming from under the car, so I turned the ignition off on the car and pulled over to the shoulder, the brakes failed so I had to let it coast to a stop. Then I waited until I could safely exit the vehicle and did so quickly. I had the vehicle towed to a local shop, and they told me I should report it. There was no warning that it was about to happen and yes its available for inspection still sitting at the shop I had it towed to. They also said I should have it towed to the manufacturer service center but this is my first time dealing with anything like this so Im unsure what to do. I did do a cursory inspection under the hood with a mechanic from the shop and there was a burnt wire and a bunch of what looked like oil down at the bottom of the engine, but the oil was still full so I dont think it was oil.

I am very upset that there’s no corrective measures for this recall issue. I can’t drive my car due to the fear of it catching fire. I can’t park my car away from my residence due to a mobility handicap. I have not been able to get any information on when this will be be resolved. I would appreciate your attention to this matter.

Las luz de ABS comenzó a verse encendida en el Dashboard en ocasiones la de ABS junto a la de Emergencia. Lleve el auto a inspeccionar en el diagnostico resultó que el problema posiblemente podría estar en el HECU. Me indican que lo llevara en esos días porque al ser algo complejo tomaria tiempo asi verificar con exactitud que era lo que estaba haciendo que me encendieran las luces para entonces ser remplazado. Antes de poder llegar el dia para poder verificarlo salgo a hacer una diligencia y al regresar a mi casa se encienden las luces nuevamente seguido por un ruido al presionar el pedal de frenos. Me estaciono frente a mi casa al rato salgo a buscar el papel del diagnostico que me habían dado que lo había dejado guardado en la víscera del carro y me percato que se escuchaba algo encendido aún ya con el carro apagado. Procedo a abrir la cajuela y me percato que esa pieza de HECU seguía encendida y sonando. Se procede a quitarle los poros de la batería para que apagara, cuando hace una chispa eléctrica seguido por fuego. Poniendo la vida de mi hija, de mi mamá y mía en peligro. Actúe rápidamente ya que vivo en un apartamento busqué el extintor de fuegos que me proveen y procedo a apagarlo. Luego de apagado el fuego encontramos una tapa que entiendo que es de el modulo de ABS (envie foto de la misma). La experiencia fue horrible pues esto me pudo haber pasado en la calle y pudo ser un incidente desgraciado ocacionando perdida de vidas y perdida total de mi auto. El percance ocurrió bien tarde en la noche que pude haberme acostado a dormir y levantarme cuando escuchara el carro explotar, gracias a Dios regresé al auto a buscar el papel y no paso a mayores.

The Hyundai accents from 2007-2015 seem like they are all experiencing the same electrical issue from the reviews I’ve seen on Google. The car literally shuts off while you are driving and the problem can’t be fixed. That is very dangerous to be driving and out of nowhere the car Dash board lights come on and the car shuts off. I recently had multiple repairs done on my vehicle and none of the repairs corrected the problem.

WAS DRIVING WHEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN MY AIR FLOW STOPPED WORKING. IT MADE SOUND BUT WOULDNT CHANGE OVER TO FEET/FULL BODY OR DEFROST. STAYED LIKE THAT WHILE DRIVING AND IN MOTION
