Description of the problem	For the past month i have been hearing a knocking coming from under the hood also as im accelerating my car seems to slip a gear and lose some speed. I looked up these things on line and thats when i found out that my car was recalled. I called hyundai twice and was told yes my car is on the recall list but as of now they don't have a solution. Then one day after work when i went to start my car it hesitated to start. The next morning i went to auto zone to have my battery checked and the machine showed it had 70% juice. Went on to do my shopping came out to start my car and it was completly dead. I called hyundai and they told me to call roadside assistance and have it towed to them, which i did and now im just waiting to find out whats wrong. This car is unsafe to drive!
