Has anyone had this happen to them: My wife and I went out to dinner tonight and were about 2 miles from home and stopped at a stoplight. I had my foot on the brake, and the motor just cut off. Was playing music through the system from my cell phone. Sound did not cut off. I immediately hit the start button and nothing happened, then the second time I hit the start button, it started and everything seemed ok. I don't know of anything I could have done to cause the engine to cut off. Anyone had this happen or any ideas of what could have happened

I had this happen 1 time.. EXACT same scenario, sitting at a light.. went to accelerate and got nothing but the radio was on and never missed a beat.
In my situation the cars little console screen (tech package screen in dash with electronic gauges.) told me to put the car in park and start it again.
Ever since i had TV3 completed on my car i haven not had the issue since.
verify with dealership that TV3 was installed, though it requires a visit as it was discussed it was not a VIN trackable service

This happened to me today. Luckily I was was able to start the car back right away after shifting it back to Park. I got 7500 KM on it and this happened only once so far.. Got a big freeked out. Would this suddenly happen if driving on the highway or just when the idle is low?

For anyone else unlucky enough to have the engine stall while driving, here is a tip from the Hyundai Manual:

"CAUTION

If the engine stalls while you are in motion, do not attempt to move the shift lever to the P (Park) position. If traffic and road conditions permit, you may put the shift lever in the N(Neutral) position while the vehicle is still moving and press the engine start/stop button in an attempt to restart the engine."

i called my delaer asking to do this 332 fix, they ran my vin and said my car does not need it, and would not do it. i do not feel like bringing it to that dealer, i'm pretty sure they will not find anything wrong with the car, but it still does shake, thou i have tried 93 gas, and it seem to be doing less of it, but it is still there
