Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Electrical system. i have already filed one complaint on the check engine light and the sensors. it has been in the dealership 9 times prior to this one. now it is a cam sensor and i believe a speed sensor. not only that but both wheel bearings are bad. it has roughly 78,000 miles. you can only get parts at a dealership. the parts are not only overpriced, but the dealership charges outrageous prices to do anything. you can unhook the battery and the light will stay off for a couple of months and then it comes back on. i take it to the dealership and they supposedly fix it and the light comes back on in a shorter amount of time than unhooking the battery. i have spoke with hyundai when the problems started and all you get is we'll fix it until the warranty is up then you are out of luck. i can't keep the check engine light off long enough to even sell it. *jb
