| Description of the problem | Have owned vehicle since 12/16. Approx 6 times there has been an acceleration problem when changing lanes or turning. Have pushed the gas and nothing happened - engine does not rev or respond in any way to the pressing of the gas pedal. Its like the car is in neutral and then it will just all of a sudden re-engage. No warning lights; no indication when it will happen. Filed complaint with hyundai but they are unable to recreate the problem and/or will not assist until they can. Dealer had car for two weeks and could not recreate so hyundai closed our complaint. The date entered below is the last time it happened. |
