problem #3

Aug 312018

Tucson

  • 400 miles
This transmission causes the car to not accelerate when it should, and when the transmission kicks is the car takes off to fast like it is out of control. Some times the transmission makes the car jerk three to for times in stop and go traffic. This is unsafe and I'm weighting for some one to rear end me or me hitting someone else. I was making a left turn from a stop light and the car would not accelerate and half way thru the turn the car took off on me but I got it under control. I cant let my wife drive this car and that is a shame because we bout it for her to drive. This car is unsafe to drive and all I get from the Hyundai dealer is excuses.it goes to the service dept.10/6/18 again.

Vehicle severely hesitates to accelerate from a stop while in traffic (gear shift is in drive position). Fails to accelerate when making left turns to avoid oncoming traffic. Problem persists regardless of driving mode selection.

Delayed acceleration from stop. Very unsafe when making a left hand turn as it will take up to 10 seconds for the car to accelerate. This happens often but not always. I do not feel safe driving this car.
