The closest dealership to me was in augusta georgia. the transmission shop in my town told me i needed a tork converter,epc assembly,complete planetary set up,left axle bearing,housing, busking kit?,master kit,fluid,fliter, and auxillary cooler. i notified hyundai,western nat'l, taylor automotive in ga., and todey in ca. not until after i called with charges was i told hyundai had to do the repairs for warranty. ca. told me that i misunderstood my owner's manual when it said that if it was unreasonable to get the vehicle serviced by an authorized hyundai tech., my warranty would be nullified. hyundai nullified my powertrain warranty 1month later. i was told by hyundai's cust serv.in ca. that i had no right to call my situation an emergency,only they had that right. i asked them and all concerned why they had me tow the car knowing my local tech had diagnosed the problem and they knew that. i was told because another tech touched the transmission and they did not take transmissions apart but switch to new trans. they would chrg. me at 1/2 price.a new transmission and p/up of the car was8/24/2001. on the way home,the car would slow down on small inclines fr 55 -45. it started stalling when turning or going over bumps. i was able to take it back on 1/9/2001 and no codes from diagnostic mach. and the tech saw that a hose needed cleaning for the accelerator sticking. almost home,the car jerked, stalled, changed gears;reved up and would choke when accelerating.it threatens to go off and sometimes does when accelerating from 0-anything. i was told i had to bring it back, but i am afraid that it will stop on the road like it did 1/9/2002 when a truck almost hit me. the car is in worse shape now then before. i know these problems have been documented at hyundai from more than i. we all seem to void warranty,1996 accent's transmission defective,gears shifting problems,no codes or findings when brought in for serv.&rude reps. | |||

When driving at both residential & highway speeds the transmission seems to slip out of gear into neutral causing a racing of the engine & a sudden jerking of the vehicle. so far this has resolved after several seconds and the transmission re-engages. this has happened intermittently. the second report relates to the the engine not moving into overdrive when it should. both of these problems have been happening randomly but with increasing frequency. *ak | |||

Automatic transmission will drop out of gear into neutral while car is in drive usually around 35 to 40 mph. this condition does not register when car is on electronic diagnostic devices. on atleast three occasions prior to the first, transmission completely failed. it had been placed on a device, with no problem found. the second, supposedly new transmission began having the same trouble, again it could not be diagnosed by machine. because no one wanted to help i gave the car up. when i purchased the car i was told it was new by the dealership, it took the hyundai corporation 2 yrs to send me a warrenty card and put the car in my name. when the original problem started w/the transmission i found out that the car had previously belonged to someone in california who may or may not have had the same trouble. i have spoken to other hyundai owners who have had similar problems with their accents. also to no avail with the company or dealerships. *ak | |||
