Description of the problem	I have a 2011 hyundai sonata se, i have brought it to the dealership 3 times with the same issue. I know there is something wrong with the transmission and they keep telling me that they cannot duplicate the issue and send me on my way. It has happened numerous times when my fiance or i have driven it, now my daughter (who just got her learner's permit) had it happen to her. The tranny slips, it makes a loud clunk when trying to go in reverse then the car will not move. I have to put the car in park, turn it off and on again then try again! Other times i will be driving and the car revs up and wont move then slips into gear and then clunks back in gear again causing the car to buck. I don't know what has to happen before this gets fixed!! Or hurt! Whichever comes first! I am over this!!! I need a car that works!! I am so frightened to have my kids drive the car only for something bad to happen and them not knowing how to handle it scares the [xxx] out of me!!! That is a lawsuit in the making!!
