Description of the problem	I bought the used car in the spring, it currently has 44,000 miles on it. When the weather got cold, it began to jerk violently at 20 mph when i decelerate. When i slow the vehicle it feels as if someone has hit me from behind. When making right hand turns i am concerned that the car will switch gears and lurch me into oncoming traffic. Items on my seat that are not secure are propelled to the floor. I will not let anyone else operate the vehicle because i feel that it would be very easy to lose control of the vehicle during the deceleration. I contacted hyundai corporation- mistakenly told me it was under warranty and then recanted when they realized i was a second owner which only covers 5 years or 60,000. Hyundai representative states that this is not a safety issue, that there are no technical bulletins applying to my automobile. Refuses to fix it free of charge despite there being countless other complaints of the same nature on the nhtsa site.
