Description of the problem	This is what i wrote to hyundai: rented a sonata. Loved the car except: safety issue. While using the cruise control the car leaped ahead several times after i had applied the brake (because i was getting too close to the car in front of me) and was temporarily handling speed without the cruise control. Nearly had an accident on twq such occasions. Then i figured out what was happening. The "resume" button is so close to the rim of the wheel, and so exposed, that the heel of my right hand was touching it inadvertantly and the cruise control reengaged when i didn't want it to and didn't know it was happening. Imho, your button needs to be relocated or protected by a ridge. Imho, this is a major safety issue that needs to be addressed now. Please let me know if you agree. If not, i will contact the ntsb. Thank you. Hyundai did not agree that it needed immediate attention, so i am writing to you. I noticed on your site that there were two previous complaints regarding the sonata's speed control, one of them similar in symptom, although the complainant did not recognize the cause. Please note, this was a rental, not a purchase, but to get through your form i have to say, later, that it was a purchase. I also invented the mileage, as i do not recall the mileage on the rental car. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6) *tt
