Thanks for the reply! A diagnostic check sounds like a good idea. Where do I even begin with that? Do I need some special equipment, or is there a way to do it myself? If I go to a mechanic, what should I expect them to do? And did the error go away after the diagnostic check?

I wouldn't recommend messing with the car electronics yourself unless you know what you're doing. I ended up taking mine to a workshop. They ran a full diagnostic check and found some software issues. They performed a software installation, but the 'Transport Mode Active' message and other errors kept showing up. The problem was not resolved through software installations. You're probably better off taking it to a professional who can properly diagnose the issue.

Thanks for the advice. I'll take it to a workshop and have them run a diagnostic. I appreciate you sharing your experience! Turns out I was right. The transport mode was still active and the dealer had to disable it. No repair costs occurred.

I had a similar issue with my Veloster. The 'Transport Mode Active' message popped up out of nowhere, and it caused all sorts of weird electrical problems. I remember reading something about this a while back. Have you tried a diagnostic check to see if any error codes are showing up? It might give you a clue as to what's causing the problem.
