| Description of the problem | Purchased car brand new first month i had it kept bucking while driving, mainly first thing in morning, while driving felt like brakes are on feels as if something is holding back car from going, won't pass other cars properly no power i complained throughout past years and never showed any problems at hyundai's service center except last time went there with husband who demanded they fix transmission issues as we were not picking up car until fixed. Received a call transmission censor was bad and was informed there was a recall on them installed a new one and ran fine no problems but it started up again bucking, no power, brakes feel like on. |
