problem #1

Sonata SE

  • Automatic transmission

My Wife believes our car had a "Sudden Unintended Acceleration" that caused the car to lurch forward at a high speed and rear end the car parked in front of her. She kindly suggests that an employee take the time to research this on the Internet. Use Google and type in Hyundai Sudden Unintended Acceleration. You will see stories from numerous Hyundai car owners who say they have had this same problem happen.

This problem is very dangerous and I fear for my Wife's safety when she continues to drive our Hyundai. I know we have no proof of this happening unless Hyundai Motor Corp. "Owns up" to the problem. But my Wife is absolutely certain that our car suddenly unintendedly accelerated forward causing the rear end collision.

My Wife is a very safe and careful driver. She has been driving for 30 years without having an accident, until recently. She truly believes the accident was caused by the SUA and she was not at fault.

Update from Jan 4, 2018: Hi, today we went to a Hyundai dealer Svc, Dept to request they install a new TPS in our 2015 Sonata. To make it short, we will foot the bill ($480.00 for parts & labor) for the installation of the TPS part.

Has anyone who also had the Sudden Unintended Acceleration problem install a new TPS?

If Yes, did it "Fix" the SUA problem?

Thanks.
