Yes I thought they should be able to read an error code, but the local Hyundai dealer said they are cleared when the car gets turned off, or when it is not acting up. It has to have done this over 60 times by now. I have taken it to the shop before regarding this and they were unable to help. The mfg. said they would step in but no one has said how the rental would be handled. It could be a quite lengthy stay.

Why not purchase an inexpensive code reader yourself and keep it connected until the next occurrence?

If you bring the car in after the problem occurs the codes should be there. The codes are stored and the oldest code is erased but the most recent group of codes will there.

ESC off Light by rooney6

When the ESC off light is on, what is this an indication of? I notice it comes on when braking. When I turn the car off the light goes out, but a few minutes later when the car is running again it'll come on again. It doesn't happen often, but often enough to catch my attention and it only seems to come on in the winter time.

ESC should not activate unless you are maneuvering the car past its limits for conditions. In icy conditions, it could activate more than on dry roads. When driving straight ahead, it should not activate. If the light comes on under normal driving conditions or when stopped, you should have the car checked.

This is very helpful. I'll pay closer attention to events that trigger the light to activate.
Thanks again for the feedback!

Cabin Noise by rooney6

Since I've had my Sonata 2006 I've noticed the cabin noise is becoming very annoying. When I'm driving on the hwy or on the street the outside noise coming in is loud. I like to drive in a quiet car. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to cut down the noise?

ABS Brakes by rooney6

I'm figuring that the ABS brakes are on when I hear grinding noise upon applying the brakes. When this ocurrs I immediately release the brakes thinking that something is going to fall out the bottom and I start pumping the brakes to keep from hitting the car in front of me. Would it be okay to press the pedel to the floor until I come to a complete stop? I also feel the shaking, pulling underneath my foot. Is this normal?

With ABS, just keep your foot on the brakes. They do the pumping for you. Some noise and vibration in the pedal are normal with ABS.
