G., 10 mph while traveling at 35-40 mph on a city street, which is usually accompanied by engine dying. This was reported to o'brien hyundai of fort myers, fl on 4/20/17. They were not able to duplicate the problem after test driving for 8 miles. Since april 2017, we have also experienced numerous failed electric switching functions, e.
