Description of the problem	Brand new car- a few days after purchasing and driving the car, noticed car was not driving right. Several symptoms became noticeable. Car would jerk when accelerating and braking. Cars pick up was delayed and had a very uncomfortable vibration, while in idle and while driving, to the point of getting nauseous while driving in the car. Took car to hyundai service and told them of symptoms and my concerns of something not right with the car. The mechanics felt the problems i explained above and said something was wrong, now had to figure out what exactly. Several tests were done on the car but nothing showed up on electrical grid. Service had to call a higher tech out in california to see what to do next. California tech made them run several tests, all this took more then 2 weeks until they finally figured out that the engines throttle assy was defective and not functioning properly. They said that this also caused the sensor to malfunction. They replaced the throttle assy and claim the car is repaired. No longer trust car is safe to drive due to the electrical and engine defects that where found after the original inspections by the manufacture and the dealership failed to find these defects with the car and sold it.
