 Description of the problemSince purchasing the vehicle in november 2015, the vehicle has had difficulty shifting at lower speeds and accelerating at higher speeds. Initially, the dealership told me i just needed to get used to driving a turbo. I have had all three updates done to the dual-clutch transmission. Afterwards, in january 2017, while driving in the city, the vehicle dropped into neutral between first and second gear. The rpms revved up to 4, but the vehicle had a sudden loss of forward momentum. Because i was in heavy traffic, this presented a safety hazard to me. The dealership re-performed the december 2016 update the first part of february 2017 and caused a full system failure requiring manual reprogramming. It then released the vehicle back to me. After two days, the same thing happened while driving in the city. I was again in heavy traffic and afraid about being rear-ended. When the car reengaged after these failures, it then surged forward. The problem is intermittent and therefore unpredictable and unsafe. The dealership informed me it has not been unable to duplicate the problem and thus has nothing to fix. Additionally, it has been in touch with hyundai corporate whose position is that the problem was fixed with the december 2016 update. And, since the dealer hasn't duplicated it, they have no further obligation to me. According to the dealership, hyundai corporate knows of no other car in the nation still having transmission problems after the december 2016 update. In addition to my complaint, please review nhsta 10948958, 10939802, 10938874, 10939196, and 10946886 to test the credibility of its assertion.
