2009 Hyundai Genesis Electrical system Problems

“2009 Hyundai Genesis 3.8 4d sedan with 55000 miles. Lately, my car dash will blink p which is a notification for transmission is on parked even the shifter is in a different mode. This happens randomly and I am worried hope don't lockup transmission during the high speed. I have recorded a video of this scenario if asked. Btw this happens in both in motion or in stationary mode.”

“Power steering has failed while driving multiple times during the past 18 months. I have brought the car in for service at my local dealership for the same problem multiple times. The power steering has been replaced twice and the rack and pinion has been replaced but the problem persists. A fault code generated from the power steering failure but Hyundai mechanics and Hyundai corporate do not recognize the code. Unbelievable!”

“This car has electrical problems. I saw a low battery indicator light on my dashboard while driving. I replaced the battery with a new battery from auto parts store. That new battery died on one week. Had to tow my car to the mechanic. Diagnosed with a weak alternator. Not a dead alternator but a weak alternator. I was told this is common with the Genesis cars. The weak alternator caused electrical problems for the rest of the car causing weird electrical problems occasionally.”

“Vehicle was in motion on city street when another motorist signaled that flames were coming out of front drivers side bumper. Fortunately, my wife was nearing home and pulled over in front our house where I sprayed and soaked area of fire until it receded. When I was able to view damage, the drivers side fog light bulb and housing had dropped thru the large hole which had burned thru the plastic bumper. The bulb and housing evidently dislodged from the fog light socket and dropped into the surrounding plastic bumper below and triggered the fire . …”

“Was driving car to meet my husband and when I turned the corner, he was frantically waving me to get out of the car because it was on fire, in the front under the driver's side bumper. I got out and saw flames shooting from under the bumper. With the fire department on the way, we made several attempts to put the fire out w/water to no avail. A nearby store owner came out with a fire extinguisher and was able to put the fire out. Once fire department arrived, he indicated that it appeared to be an electrical fire. …”
