Description of the problem	I was driving from rhode island to north carolina and when i was driving west across the tappan zee bridge near new york city and had gotten to the other side of the bridge, i lost throttle response. The car began to slow down in heavy traffic and i had to cross three lanes to get to the right hand lane. The check engine light was on steady at this point. By the time i reached the right hand lane, the car was going only about 35 mph and i was very lucky that i was not hit by other vehicles on the bridge, who were dodging me at high speed on both sides. . This was a very scary situation and could easily have resulted in fatalities. Fortunately, there was an exit on the other side of the bridge and i managed to get off i287 and find a place to stop. I checked the internet and found reports that other people had experienced similar events and that the car returned to normal after turning off the engine and restarting it. My wife, who was with me, recalled that something similar happened to her 2004 hyundai santa fe several years ago when it was driven locally by one of my sons. So after about 20 minutes, i restarted the car and found that throttle control had returned and we continued on our way. After stopping to eat later in the day, and returning to the car, the check engine light had gone off and has been off ever since. I managed to return to rhode island yesterday without any further problems, but am now afraid that this might happen again and that i will not be so lucky the next time. I have not had time yet to have the dealer check out the car, but plan to do so as soon as possible. This is clearly a serious safety issue and i am surprised that there has not been a recall to fix this problem, especially considering that it appears to be something that has been happening to hyundai cars, (and possibly others), for some time now.
