I have been experiencing serious safety issues with the 2019 Hyundai Tucson I purchased that have been ongoing since February of 2023. The check engine light comes on, begins to flash, and the car goes into 'limp mode' and will not allow me to accelerate faster than 45/50 MPH. Consequently, it will further stall on hills due to the inability to accelerate.
