problem #3

Sonata

  • 500 miles
Hyundai Sonata 2010 V6 sedan rolls backwards on incline when in drive. Basically goes into freefall in time it takes to put foot from brake to accelerator. Also steering is very swimmy. Tend to over or under steer and lots of sway in chasis when turning or changing lanes at high speeds on freeway. Have taken to dealer multiple times and told it is the way it is designed. Sounds flawed to me.

I was backing up slowly when the car suddenly accelerated without me touching the gas. I was about to put it into forward gear when it suddenly lurched backward.
