Recently purchased Hyundai Tuscon - EML issue - Rudlin

Hello

I have recently purchased 2021 Hyundai Tuscon 1.6 T-GDi Manual transmission. I've driven it for 1000 miles, and it was all well till yesterday, Engine Management light warning came up and after scanning it via the OBD2 scanner it returned me two errors:
1. P0900 - clutch actuator
2. P0471 - Exhaust pressure sensor error.

I've bought it off dealership (non-Hyundai), and I was assured that the car is in perfect working condition. This puts in a rather difficult situation - as I need to travel to the airport on Monday (tomorrow).

Can you advise me please what steps should I take. Would car be safe to drive with this warning to dealership (nearest is around 40 miles away).

Thank you.

You must take it to the seller, they are responsible. If they agree that you take it elsewhere get it in writing that they will pay.

Don't drive it until they agree.

I’m guessing you’re using a happy shopper basic scanner, so the fault code descriptions may not be accurate. The exhaust pressure sensor fault, if correct , could be related the GPF ( gasoline particulate filter) . Not an uncommon issue on these . Need to get it checked out properly.
