Description of the problem | I had a half dozen incidents where the dct either does not engage or only moves the car very slowly which indicates that it is slipping badly. I also have had 2 incidents where the car accelerated at first and then stopped accelerating as i was trying to make a left hand turn from a stop sign. The speed limit is 40 mph there and it left me wondering whether i would into the right hand lane before i had an accident, i have driven this car 1500 miles on local rural and city streets since i purchased the car in april 2016. I have had the vehicle back to the dealer twice with the latest being told that hyundai is working on a dct software upgrade to be available in 3 to 6 weeks. |
