 Description of the problem2016 hyundai tucson 1. 6t with the 7spd dual clutch transmission refused to respond to accelerator pedal after starting from a dead stop. Situation: stopped at an intersection waiting to turn left, proceeded to accelerate from the stop to turn left through the intersection at ~5mph and half way through the middle of the turn/intersection the car refused to respond to gas pedal input for increased speed. I tried depressing the gas pedal more, but no response. I completely let off the pedal and then re-applied and the car started to respond with regular power delivery with the transmission shuddering a bit. Cars approaching the intersection had to wait for me to get through, luckily it wasn't extremely busy with fast moving traffic. I feel this 'random' lack of response to the gas pedal poses a serious safety issue. The tucson has had the latest t1b dct update (16-01-057) applied at the dealer since 3/11/17. This is not the first time the car has given me issues accelerating or continuing to accelerate. Transmission also experiences intermittent problems when asking to downshift under 3/4-full throttle conditions - it often will half engage and feel like it's slipping in gear eventually applying the right get with no slip. This creates questionable passing on the highway since you never really know what the transmission is going to do when requesting it to perform multiple downshifts under power.
