I hate that feature. I know that you can usually turn them off. But, I don’t even want the hardware installed in my car. Unfortunately, it’s not a delete option.

A neighbor, about 100 yards from our home has a 2023 Hyundai Palisade.

About two weeks ago, he stopped parking it in his attached
carport.

Of course if you park a Kia or Hyundai outside, there is a substantial likelihood that it will be stolen.

But FReepers say only EVs catch fire.

This EV technology is obviously not perfected and consumers are starting to realize it. There are hundreds if not thousands of these vehicles sitting on various dealers lots.

I just don't get why the virtue-signaling folks are ignoring all the spontaneous fires, lack of charging stations, limited mileage, battery inefficiency in hot or cold weather, cost of replacing the large lithium batteries.

I have one of the models but it’s a 2022. I just called the dealer’s service center with my VIN number, and they said my car is ok. Whew!

I appreciate the info.

What in the world is an Idle Stop & Go oil pump assembly?

Some type of electric oil pump that continues to circulate oil when the engine shuts down when idling?

This is what happens when they want to turn cars into computers with wheels.

Cars are so complicated now that there are constant recalls about something or other.

I remember my dad changing the water pump on his 1966 Chevy pickup with a straight-six. There was enough room in the engine bay (and he was skinny enough) that he slid over the fender and stood in the engine compartment. I haven’t even been able to look down through an engine compartment and see the ground for decades.

KIA engines have had some serious issues. I would never buy one. Same for Hyundai.
