| Description of the problem | I have a 2010 hyundai santa fe. The transmission slips and i get a hard shift with a loud bang when shifting from 1st to 2nd or 2nd to 3rd. It seems to do this when the transmission is cold but it does it even when warm. I had mine in 3 times for repair with a new transmission on the last repair. The new transmission is the same as the original one. Hyundai knows about this and they knew about when i bought the car. I should have been notified when i was buying the car - not finding out after the fact. The dealer gives me the deer in the headlights look when i complain about this like they have never heard about it before. |
