The car does not accelerate at a light or traffic. The car is on and revs and the dials move but does not drive. This has happened 3 times and the dealer cannot find anything wrong because the computer doesn't show an issue. I am scared to drive the car.

In January of this year I rented a Hyundai Tucson from national at hobby airport in houston, tx. In a manner similar to the complaint I just filed regarding an earlier experience with a Hyundai Santa Fe sport (#10822299) this SUV also exhibited similar behaviors - a tendency to hesitate when accelerating from a stop, especially (but by no means exclusively) when a left or right turn was to be executed at the same time. Since this was my second experience with a rental Hyundai SUV, I thought it wise to advise you of this possibly endemic defect in that maker's models. The problem was so severe that I had to make sure there was plenty of room, traffic-wise, to accelerate from zero without possibly getting struck. I am now out of the market for future Hyundai SUV rentals.
