 Description of the problemI have a 2006 santa fe 6 cyl. Front wheel drive. I purchased the car in 2007 from go hyundai. The car has run very good, except the surging or acceleration problem. I took it back to the dealer two times specifically for this problem. They said they could find no problem. I took it to a second dealer, planet hyundai, and they could find nothing. The problem got so bad even i was afraid to drive it. My wife was really scared to drive it. I finally took it back go and they called, said it was ready. When i picked it up, the service guy said they replaced a part and that i shouldn't have any more surging problems. Last night, my wife drove the santa fe to church. As she was parking it in the garage, (something she had done a thousand times), the car suddenly accelerated, slamming into our volvo convertible, pushing it about five feet forward, jamming it under our stairs into the house. In all, there is a lot of damage to both vehicles.
