Description of the problem | Intermittently the vehicle will hesitate during acceleration from a standing start. It appears related to turbo lag, but to the extreme and is a dangerous safety issue. Most recently, as i went to takeoff i was momentarily stalled in the middle of the street as i was pulling into on-coming traffic. This is just the opposite of what a turbo boost is supposed to provide. This issue is well-documented on the hyundai auto forums and needs to be addressed immediately. Again, this not an inconvenience. It is a safety hazard and hyundai seems unconcerned about solving this issue. Someone is going to die unless you force them to fix this issue. And if you don't, the blood will be on the nhtsa's hands as well. This is also not the first time this has occured, but the most recent and serious example since i have owned the vehicle. |
