 Description of the problemThe engine just quit while i was driving on the freeway during morning rush-hour. There was suddenly no response when accelerator was depressed. I managed to glide across 2 freeway lanes to exit freeway while car decelerated. This occurred on oct 7, 2008. I don't recall if at the off ramp red light, the car completely stopped and i restarted it or was barely idling. I do recall the car barely driving (it was trembling/rough idling) the few feet from the red light to the first gas station. I parked it and it would not start up. Hyundai towed it to their dealership. Mechanic diagnosed the problem was: "the throttle body has failed and needs to be replaced." i haven't experienced this again--and had not experienced it before this incident. While i managed to avoid crashing into other vehicles going 50-70 mph when i glided across the lanes, this was a terrifying experience. (i am submitting this complaint 1-1/2 years after the mechanical failure only because of the serious problems toyota customers have experienced w/sudden acceleration, etc. I just want to ensure that nhtsa was informed by hyundai back in 2008 of my potentially deadly engine failure on a freeway during rush-hour traffic. I think they should have had a duty to report this serious failure to you, and if they did, great. In case they didn't, now you know.)

  • 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.
