This car is a piece of crap. I have had problem after problem after problem. Everything mentioned on this website my car has had happen. Bulbs, not the issue, electrical, language only in french doesn't change back, had a small electrical fire in the area of the glove box just on Friday 4/20/18. Pulled over to get out of the car and was hoping it would burn to the ground. Maybe then Hyundai will wake up and actually take ownership of their manufacturing flaws.
