Description of the problem | I had to replace the throttle body and rear shock at approximately under 2000 miles. It hesitates badly. It decelerates as i press down on the accelerator. It had low coolant before a long trip so i filled it up as it advised. When the vehicle was hot the coolant was approximately 1/2 inch to 1 inch below the minimum fill line. After my trip i took it to the certified hyundai dealer service center for tire rotation and oil change and they advised the coolant was low again, but that there are no leaks. I told them i just filled it up and so they are checking again for leaks. It slammed into gear as i was going on an off ramp from an interstate. It jerked and shimmied like it was going to die when i was at a stoplight. It is brand new. It should not be having so many issues and no one will help me with it i just keep hearing "there is nothing wrong with it, it is just the way hyundai designed the vehicle." hyundai needs to work on this. There should be multiple recalls on this vehicle. It has a popping sound every time i reach 20 mph after taking it out of park. It has a rattle in the frame/rear passenger door area. No place can fix these sounds. I just have to deal with it all. It has been nothing but a nightmare since purchased in november 2015. This really needs multiple recalls on it. I just got an email about a hood latch recall too. Not even from hyundai... From car fax. Hyundai did not contact consumers regarding the hood latch recall. They should be required to. The dealer did not contact me about it either. The dealer, bob poynter columbus, in refuses to service my brand new vehicle under warranty and they will not speak with me at all. They will not tell me where they obtained my vehicle from as a dealer trade either. |
