| Description of the problem | I have 2014 santa fe sport with 2. 4 engine, and have a serious hesitation problem. It happens quite often when waiting at light to make a left turn. When traffic allows me to go, the car will start the turn then it feels like the engine dies for about 2 or 3 seconds then kicks in and i am able to complete the turn. This is very scary when there is traffic coming at me. I am very worry that one day i will have an accident because of the serious hesitation problem. It also hesitates it when driving with the flow of traffic and when i want to speed up little bit, it does not accelerate but kinda bogges down. I have to push the gas peddle down fast and then let it up and then i can accelerate to the speed i wanted to go. I have taken the car to the dealer 2 times and they could not solve the this problem. |
