 Description of the problemWhile driving my wife's 2009 sonata the clutch became stuck to the floor. I had to use my foot to pull the clutch back up to the normal operating height in order to change gears. I was almost rear ended as the person behind me expected acceleration at the time but i was slowing down due to the inability to switch gears in a timely manner. This has happened at least a dozen times. The transmission also does not function properly during this problem and is at times nearly impossible to get into gear requiring me to depress the clutch several times before it goes into gear properly. Had it to the dealership and they could not duplicate the problem therefore they claim nothing is wrong. They lubricated the linkage and said that was all they could do. I have discussed this with reputable shops in the area and they claim it is certainly a problem with the drive train, but hyundai will not fix this. This is definitely a safety hazard my wife transports both of my children daily in this vehicle.
