Description of the problem	I had taken my tuscon in 3 different times for all the same issues every time (1) delayed acceleration from a complete stop while crossing oncoming traffic with my 2 yr old son in the car (2) not accelerating at all from a complete stop but the rpm's revving high before finally jerking into gear and taking off and (3) jerking when i am in traffic and i press the gas. All 3 times, the "repair" was explained to me as a "computer update". The car would drive fine for about a week, then the issues would resume. The service dept told me this is how the dct works. Then i saw that there was finally a recall being issued and i thought "oh yay! They finally figured out what the problem was so i can take it in this one last time and i'll be good to go!" after only one day we were back to the same issues. The service dept once again said that "unfortunately, computer updates will be a normal thing for this dct system" are you freakin' kidding me?! This is not normal! You mean to tell me that every time my car starts stalling while i am crossing oncoming traffic, potentially causing an accident that could cause my son, myself or someone else serious injury, if not death, that i need to bring it in for a "computer update"?? They also suggested that i try driving it in sport mode all the time or using the manual shifter to see if that would help with the hesitation and/or stalling and jerking. If i wanted to shift, i would have bought a manual. When i press the gas, i want to go. I don't want to worry that this might the time that the transmission doesn't quite engage in time while i'm crossing traffic and something serious/fatal happens. I am extremely unhappy with this car, i am extremely unhappy with the dealership and their passive attitude towards this ongoing issue but most of all, i feel extremely unsafe in this vehicle and no one seems to be taking that seriously.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
