Description of the problem | My 2010 hyundai sante fe gls transmission periodically slips and then clunks into the next highest gear with a force that shakes the car. This force translates into a banging sound. Each incident happened at speeds of 20-25 mph and shifting from 2nd to 3rd gear. I am very concerned about the safety of this car since i don't know when the transmission will finally fail completely. I believe the car should be recalled for this potential safety hazard. |
