Description of the problem	The vehicle is hyundai's new fuel cell model. On 3 separate occasions over 7 months the vehicle lost power while on a highway. The last occasion, november 7, 2016, i was in the left lane near the fast lane on the glendale freeway at about 9:30 am. The vehicle suddenly lost power and, since there is no left hand shoulder, i had to coast across several lanes of fast moving traffic to try to reach an exit ramp. After several minutes of not knowing what was happening to the vehicle, i gave the gear shift lever a nudge to the right. I heard a slight mechanical sound and the transmission re-engaged and i regained full power. The vehicle had nearly a full tank of fuel at the time. This same thing happened to me in the april/may time frame when driving on a highway in san diego county (about 1/2 tank of fuel) and then again in early july, 2016. When i was driving on the golden state freeway near griffith park (not sure of the fuel this time). Both times, without warning, the vehicle suddenly lost power. It coasted for several seconds but these two times -- after less than a minute -- the power reengaged, or self corrected, on its own. The november 7th incident lasted several minutes, and the engine did not self correct. On november 8th, i drove the vehicle to keyes hyundai in van nuys. Since it had been over 4 months and several thousand miles since the second incident, i was not surprised that they could not duplicate the transmission failure. I do not believe the vehicle is safe to drive, however, and, since they have not been able to identify and correct the defect, have asked hyundai to cancel the lease on the vehicle rather than continue to risk myself and my family in this vehicle.

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?
