I bought a used car with 27,000+ miles. After 2 days the car overheated all the way up to red. Stranded me late at night and I don’t think the dealership could have cared less. Is there anything else about this car that by reputation could happen that I should be prepared for?

It is only a one year old car. It HAS no reputation!

The car should still be under warranty, the dealer is obligated to repair it. Insist it be repaired. If you don’t trust the dealer, take it to another one. Hyundai will cover it at ANY dealer.

If you don’t trust the car, sell or trade it.
