| Description of the problem | My 2009 santa fe has been accelerating during stopping (around 20-30 miles) i brought it in to dealer and they took it for a test drive acknowledging that it did in fact surge while trying to stop. They did an "update" and gave it back to me telling me if it does it again bring it back. It not only continues to do this but whatever they did made the transmission switch hard. I'm taking it back today. In my opinion this is a safety issue and something should be done about it. |
