Description of the problem | My 2017 hyundai tuscon has a duel clutch transmission. I have had problems with it ever since we purchased it. I have had it back to the dealer several times. When you are sitting in traffic and try to go the transmission hesitates, when you come to a stop and go to take off the transmission is in the wrong gear and you get a bang. The dealer tells me this is like driving a car with a clutch i can drive a car with a manual transmission and i have never experienced anything like this. The car is great if you never have to stop and take off. Some days it's better than others. You can't drive this car like a regular transmission car you can't pull out for fear the car will not go or will be in the wrong gear. This car is not safe. The dealership never told us that this vehicle had this problem. I would have never purchased this vehicle if i would have known. This is a on going problem. Below it says when did this happen, it happens all the time. |
