Description of the problem	On january 11, 2016 i was going on an entrance ramp to interstate 10 in jacksonville, fl. And as i was entering the interstate, there was a lag time in the engine, and power was not getting to the wheels. I had the accelerator floored and it just wouldn't move. Then all of a sudden it propelled me forward very fast. I had a semi right behind me, and i couldn't go anywhere until it finally kicked in. This could have been a very serious accident if that truck would have hit me. The vehicle had 4703 miles on it. It happened again on a busy street on march 20, 2016. I had stopped at a light, and when i went forward, it got up to 18 mph and then just nothing, no movement at all. The tach said the engine was revving, but i was going nowhere. This happened at the next 7 traffic lights/stop signs and each time was the same thing, 18 mph stopping, and propelling me at 33 mph. This was each and every time. The mileage was 6695 at the time. There is a serious lag time in the 1. 6 liter engine, that hyundai has been made aware of. I contacted them both times, and the case # is 8735263. They basically just told me to take it to a dealership, but they couldn't find anything wrong as it didn't register on the computer either time. This is a very serious problem that has happened to many, many others across the us. I'm terrified to drive this car now as i fear that if it happens again, i could be killed, or someone else could be hurt/ killed. This vehicle is not safe to drive. I bought it brand new in sept. 2015, and if i had been told there might be a problem like this, i wouldn't have bought it. I can't get rid of it, and i can't trade it in on another vehicle, so i'm basically screwed and still owe 64 more payments of $332. 00 on it. I feel the dealership and hyundai is responsible for selling me something that could be a potentially very dangerous situation.
