2020 Hyundai Elantra suddenly died while driving

Hi, I was driving to my mom’s today and about 40 minutes into my 45 minute drive my car suddenly lost power out of nowhere. I turned a corner and it felt like the car had just switched off. My battery and oil lights came on as well as a couple others but I don’t remember what they were, I was too focused on pulling over and turning the car off. I turned it back on and everything restarted like normal and I finished my drive. I’m unable to take it to a shop today and have to drive 45 minutes back home but I’m worried about it happening again on my way. Does anyone have any idea as to what may have happened?

I will say that the state I live in is currently experiencing a heat advisory but there have been hotter days that haven’t affected it before. Just wanted to put that out there in case overheating could be a potential cause.

Car suddenly died while driving

Hi, to start I drive a 2020 Hyundai Elantra with about 80,000 miles on it.

I was driving to my mom’s today and about 40 minutes into my 45 minute drive my car suddenly lost power out of nowhere. I turned a corner and it felt like the car had just switched off. My battery and oil lights came on as well as a couple others but I don’t remember what they were, I was too focused on pulling over and turning the car off. I turned it back on and everything restarted like normal and I finished my drive. I’m unable to take it to a shop today and have to drive 45 minutes back home but I’m worried about it happening again on my way. Does anyone have any idea as to what may have happened?

URGENT temporary foster needed - all expenses paid | Atlanta, GA, USA

Hi all. Due to sudden unexpected circumstances and financial issues, I’m (27F) moving back in with my mom in the next few weeks and I’m unable to take my girls with me. These are Bean and Pepper, I’ve had them for 8 years, and they are my whole world. I’m willing to do anything I can to keep them from being permanently rehomed or going to a shelter.

About Bean (tortoiseshell):

-Was a feral street cat found at 2 years old, is currently 10 years old

-Big lap cat and cuddler

-Likes to jump on counters and tables (haven’t been able to correct this behavior)

-Very food motivated

About Pepper (tabby):

-Given to me by a family friend at 9 weeks old, is currently 8 years old

-Very anxious and shy but is incredibly sweet once she’s comfortable

-Has behavioral issues such as scratching furniture and walls (I haven’t had success with her only using a scratching post), occasionally poops outside of the litter box, and does not get along well with other cats

-Was 16 pounds but has been on a diet for the last 2 years and has lost a significant amount of weight

I’m looking for someone who is experienced with cats who may be able to help Pepper with her behavioral problems. Since she doesn’t get along well with other cats, I’m unable to take her to my mom’s with me as she has 2 cats as well and not enough space to keep them separated. I will pay for everything they need, I have a job and steady income, and will come with everything they need. I just bought them new litter boxes last week, they have a drinking fountain, a timed feeder, beds, brushes, and all their toys. I don’t know how long it will take me to find new place to go with the circumstances that are happening at the moment. Seeking a potential year long foster to be on the safe side.

Please, if anyone is able to help me, please reach out. I don’t want to lose my girls. Thank you so much.
