The car started to stall and engine lights were flashing in the middle of interstate and it wouldn’t go above 60mph almost was about to get hit from the back
While driving my 2018 hyundai santa fe sport in freeway traffic, i felt the vehicle begin to heavily vibrate and the engine was jerking severely. The speed began to slowly descend. I was unable to control this. I was in a one-lane overpass, with no safe place, room, or lane to pull over. I felt hopeless and fearful for my life. I was literally drifting, praying the vehicle would be able to handle the descent upward. As the speed declined, the vibrations became more pronounced. No dash lights were illuminated. Other drivers behind me were approaching rapidly at the speed limit and slamming on their brakes and hazard lights in an attempt to notify drivers further back. I managed to maneuver over to approximately 24 inches of a faux shoulder on the right of 610 west freeway in houston, texas. Cars hurled past mine within inches of my vehicle. I knew i needed to get out of the car and crawled over to the passenger side. Again, i was trapped. Several hpd units were dispatched to literally shut down the freeway to enable a tow truck driver to safely hook up my suv. I had it towed to my mechanic and he did a diagnostic indicating a compression issue. He ordered new spark plus and 4 new coils. Upon further investigation he discovered that cylinder 4 was not holding compression and he informed me that the engine had failed. I then had it towed to the local hyundai dealer. At check in, i was informed that there would be a $700 diagnostic/tear apart fee to discover what repairs were needed. I informed them exactly what was needed and i expected a new engine. The hyundai mechanic dismantled the engine and took pictures, ran a few tests. He submitted the results to hyundai for approval. The engineer at hyundai denied a new engine claiming "the head coil is not part of the recall". I was told for $2500, hyundai would "refab" my damaged head to control the leaks. If that repair didn't address the issue, i was sure to get a new engine. A financial and physical risk.

Iccu failed post software update. Driving home and was suddenly alerted electrical vehicle systems were malfunctioning, and shortly following (1 or 2 minutes), the car flashed a new warning telling me to stop the vehicle. Had i been on a busy highway or a one lane street with low visibility, it would have put me and my wife in danger of being struck by other traffic. Luckily, i was very close to home so i drove home and did not drive the car for a few days. While researching what to do, i had read about the iccu failure and my problems were similar. I called a tow truck to get it out to a dealer. When attempting to shift the card into drive or reverse, the car would not move. Dealer has determined that my iccu is in fact bad and is currently in the shop being replaced. Unknown how long this will take.
