2024 HYUNDAI SANTA CRUZ

- Incident occurred on the interstate about a mile from the exit - Was in the right hand lane preparing to exit - Started raining very heavily, could barely see the lane lines - Continued to slow down coming to a momentary stop - When beginning to go again, experienced the drive/tires or something started Shuttering/vibrating-like riding over very rough gravel - At this time the car began speeding forward-with me slamming on brakes-then the car went flying into reverse. The car went spinning and ended up in the interstate median - I tried driving out of the median and back onto the interstate-then the same thing happened again and we went all the way across the median and came to a stop just before hitting the oncoming traffic - As I pulled out onto the left lane of the interstate going West the same thing happened again. - We ended up in the middle of the interstate median aimed back to the East - At the point I put the car in park and waited a minute or so - I then put the car in drive, inched forward back up out of the median and merged with the East bound traffic - I was then able to move to right lane and exit the interstate - The out of control incident did not reoccur - Called the car dealer customer care to report incident on 7/30/24 - Talked with them and detailed the experience when the car went out of control. - An appointment with the local dealership was made for them to try to understand what/why/how it happened. - A case number was assigned to the incident - Arrived at the local dealership at for the service visit - The vehicle remained at the dealership for the rest of that day and all the next day - A service advisor called late in the afternoon of of the second day and informed me that they found no issues with the car, no error codes, and that the car performed as designed - She also stated that if it were to happen again, they would ask Hyundai for recommendations
