| Tl-the contact owns a 2001 hyundai accent. the contact turned on the rear window defroster and attempted to turn it off when he did not need it anymore. a few moments later, he noticed a boom sound. he then noticed that the rear window had a big hole. the window then disintegrated and fell in the rear seat of the vehicle around spider web cracks. the contact also noticed a problem when he attempted to accelerate because the vehicle would not move forward. he believed the failure to be within the transmission. the contact previously heard a boom sound in august 2009. the vehicle had not been repaired at the time of the complaint. the contact had not spoken with the dealer or the manufacturer at the time of the complaint. the current mileage was 15,955. the failure mileage was approximately 10,000-bk | |||

| Since we bought the car, it has been to the dealership repair shop 5 times, for the same problem. the car begins to have problems shifting gears, it loses power, as not going higher than 20-30 miles. when the gas pedal is applied, the car gets stuck for several seconds before it jerks and begins to run again. everytime we take it in they repair the pulse generator. the pulse generator has been changes two time in the last three months alone (june, august), and now its ready to go back into the shop again. it is getting worse, it is becoming a safety issue because it gets stuck anywhere, and can get hit from behind, or get into an accident when it stops in the middle of a cross section. *jb | |||

| Dt: contact states his car was lunging forward. the vehicle was taken to the dealer who said they couldn't do anything with the vehicle until the transmission failed. the dealer refused to replace transmission due to warranty coverage. they had the car with 29,000 miles the point where they were saying the oil should have been changed, and did not change the oil, even though contact had records indicating it has been changed every 3,000 miles. contact felt dealer was negligent by not acknowledging there was a problem at the beginning.*ak the consumer explained that the dealer didn't recommend or suggest transmission fluid changes even when it was time for one. the dealer refused to provided any assistance until the manufacturer was supplied with transmission service records of fluid changes. *nm | |||
