Description of the problem	I bought the car in late march 2013 and the mileage was around 50,800. Every since then it periodically hesitates to accelerate from a stop or sometimes when the car is rolling forward very slowly. In every case the gas peddle (throttle) is fully released and when i push on the gas peddle, nothing happens. The motor does not speed up, the throttle is not engaging anything. Several times i pushed the peddle half the way to the floor, and nothing happened. Then all at once, it catches, and the car takes off at a high rate of speed. The car is not "coding" so the brunswick, ga hyundai dealing will not repair what is wrong. And naturally it has not happened the few time they have driven the car. This is a highly dangerous situation that could result in death when pulling out from a stop on to a busy road. It is nerve racking to think, this might be the time the car won't move! I took a quick look at the data base of complaints and this same complaint is in your data base. Again it is a periodic happening which makes it more dangerous.
