| Description of the problem | I was in my parking space and had to put the car in reverse to get out of the space. With my foot on the brake and the car in reverse, it took off at an incredible speed, did a semi-circle, and hit another car. I brought the car to my local hyundai dealer who was unwilling to do anything about the event or check out the car. I plan on contacting hyundai corporate to provide them with this information. |
