In November my Hyundai Accent hatchback started to hesitate and buck while I was driving and pressing the gas pedal. It started only slightly and occasionally, but progressively became worse on the same day until I felt the engine might cut off while I was driving. I drove the car with great difficulty to the Hyundai dealership where the repair facility kept my vehicle for 4 days. I was told the mechanic drove my car several times for over 20 miles and could not detect the problem at all. They could not detect any problem on the computer and after checking all possibilities under the hood, told me it might be moisture in the fuel line. I was told to put premium gas into the tank 1 or 2 fill ups and then go back to regular gas. Within a week, the problem completely disappeared so I assumed the problem was fixed.
