Day 1:I pulled into a lane leading to a parking lot. On a 90 degree turn, I lost power steering and the engine light came on. The Hyundai still was idling when I lost the power steering. I came to a stop and the power steering started working again. There was some water on the pavement. Day 2: same as day one in same location on the same turn. Day 5: took vehicle to service center and explained the problem. They came back and said they checked the computer for error codes and none were found. The checked the under carriage for loose wires, none were found. They checked the serpentine belt and it was also found in good condition. Problem could not be found. No insurance safe driving sensor was plugged into the com port. There is a sensor on the windshield that is stuck on. No physical connection to the vehicle.

While driving one day, I felt my car shift as if the wheel had slipped, this occurred many times after making a turn. I recently had work done to the front (strut, tie rod, knuckle, ball joint) and am also in need of a wheel alignment. I wondered if this was why, so I called the mechanic back, but he told me that it was my tires. However there is still a fair amount of tread on my tires, so I am not sure if thats really true. Next thing I know, my car accelerated out of nowhere and was almost like driving itself at 20mph (the speed it was stuck on even after slowing down). Also while on the high way it did the same thing-- accelerated on its own and jerked to the right. I had to pretty much hurry and catch the wheel before slamming into another car while on a turn and going about 55mph. At random times it will accelerate and pretty much drive itself while I am driving. I typically have to apply plenty of pressure to the brakes to keep it from rolling while I am stopped. Also I am having an issue with overheating. If I idle too long the car will overheat, even though the tank is full. Even with adding more in, the tank stays where it is, it doesn't overflow. It's almost as if the car is just drinking it but it's not filtering through the hose if that makes sense. Lastly, the car did not want to turn on this evening, after about the 5th time I held it longer than usual and it finally puttered to life reluctantly. I don't feel very safe in this truck anymore.

When slowing or idling the car will stall and come to a stop, unable to accelerate again. As the car stalls it becomes very difficult to steer and all the dashboard lights come on (check engine light, oil light, emergency break light, etc). This usually happens when I am slowing down to make a turn and has happened once on the highway. Very scary and dangerous to come to a sudden stop while trying to take an exit on the highway.

When turning right on a raining day, loss of power - no steering or brakes. 2006 tuscon would run radio would be on - battery light and brake lights on - 10 seconds after managing to get out of traffics way - car would move. Hyundai foxed the car by replacing sensors and some other work resulting in over a $1000. Prior major service was serpentine belt and chain replacement on service recommendations - had no issues before the chain was replaced. Ever since - the transmission had to reset for hesitation between 20 and 40 mph and the additional sensor work. Hyundai would not give me any warranty work as my 6 years had just expired. I am taking the car back in tomorrow for the same issue. While driving today in a sudden down pour - the first one since I had the car fixed that I have had to drive in and the incident occurred again except this time I was driving and not turning. Water seemed to get under the engine and something is getting wet. I requested a rental car and I am leaving for vacation on Saturday to the shore. If its not fixed this time - I may have to consider a new car and I just paid it off.

While turning into my carport, my engine stalled. Right before I turned, I took my foot off the accelerator and the car hesitated and lurched forward. This could be a potentially dangerous problem if my car stalls on the road and some other driver rear ends me.

Crankshaft balancer/pulley separation causes serpentine belt failure and loss of power steering. The crankshaft pulley on several Hyundai models with the 2.7 liter engine appears to have a high failure rate. The pulley is made of an inner and outer metal rings joined with an elastomeric compound. When the elastomeric compound fails the outer ring slips and works off the inner pulley causing the serpentine belt to bind against the engine block a or accessory mounting brackets resulting in a catastrophic failure. In all cases the failure results in a loss of drive to all accessories including the power steering pump. I have found numerous articles/blogs about this issue including this video on youtube www.youtube.com /watch?V=X5kzz1tmj8Y.
