Description of the problem	There have been numerous incidents that have occurred over the past few months. Is intermittent - can happen 2 days in a row or weeks apart. Symptoms when moving forward at a low rate of speed (stop and go traffic on expressway) stop to 10 miles per hour ... Every now and then hear a "clunk" sound from the rear of the vehicle - from above the spare tire area. Intermittent - can happen minutes apart or a week apart. Have read same type of complaints on internet. Took it to multiple mechanics ( hyundai & non-hyundai ) - neither of them could "reproduce" the problem.... Which is the "problem".... As i told them and have posted here.... This can happen twice in one day and then not re-occur for a week or two..... The mechanics look at me like i'm nuts after they've driven it around and not been able to "reproduce" the problem... Scenarios #1 the vehicle was in motion; at a very low rate of speed (0-7mph); on an upward incline; stop & go traffic #2 the vehicle was in reverse, at a very low rate of speed (0-7mph); on a downward incline with sharp turn to the right - backing out of driveway to street #3 the vehicle was in reverse, at a very low rate of speed (0-7mph) straight back
