2008 Hyundai Accent Engine Problems

“On november 14, 2014, after coming to a stop,the engine shut off almost immediately, requiring me to put the vehicle into park or neutral to restart it. This has happened 19 times since. My concern is that this may happen while I am in motion and that if it did it might cause another vehicle to crash into mine. I have brought the vehicle into our local Hyundai dealer where it was purchased used in july 2014 to have this problem fixed. The engine came to a stop while it was on their lift being checked out. However, the computer did not provide any code to enable them to fix it. …”

What do I do now. I did not want to purchase another vehicle. I would like Hyundai to replace this engine without cost to me. I have own cars with 89,000 miles that did not have engine defects.”
