 Description of the problemI made a right turn onto my driveway using light acceleration (12 mph) to gently overcome the upward slope as i do normally. The car responded well. As i was pulling into my garage (the last 5-7 feet), i applied light pressure the accelerator to ease into my space and the car surged. During the surge, i applied as much force as i could slamming both feet (one on top of the other) on the brake, but the car responded too late. I had collided with the garage wall. There was front-end and dry-wall damage. After reviewing some reviews for my model car on edmunds. Com, i realized the uncontrollable surge is a common complaint about this model suv, which does not seem to be addressed by the company or dealers. Therefore, i have decided to file this complaint in hopes that hyundai will investigate this situation and figure out a way to remedy these surges and keep their customers safe.
