ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING

 While driving up an incline the vehicle began to make a grinding noise. shortly thereafter the car began shaking, with the check engine and esc lights both coming on, then a sudden stoppage of acceleration, and then engine shut down while the vehicle was still in motion. this caused the immediate loss of steering and the brakes to go soft. the vehicle sat for 10 minutes before re-starting; however, after driving approximately 100 feet, the car once again made the grinding noise, engine and esc light illumination, shaking, and then shut down. this is the third time since purchasing this vehicle in march of 2008, that the engine has stopped working while driving. the dealership has replaced a throttle sensor twice, the last time being october 18, 2009, and it is currently in the shop again for the same problem. this is just one of several ongoing problems and concerns with this vehicle. most notably outside of the sudden loss of power and engine shut off described, the brakes have been checked on several occasions for noises, violent shaking, and loss of function to which the dealership states that they are not worn or warped or this is normal for this vehicle. the tires have no grip and spin on both dry and went road conditions making sudden acceleration impossible and dangerous.the vehicle has also been checked for the lack of gas mileage approximately 13 mpg city and 16 mpg highway, well less then the 19/21 on the sticker. *tr

 Vehicle surges, the motor will rev up and down between 500 and 1400 rpms almost stalling. when stopped at a red light or stop sign with the vehicle in gear the van will surge and move you ahead 2-3 inches with the brakes applied. the vehicle will surge at different speeds with it in reverse with no one touching the gas pedal. the check engine light has never come on. the van also will act as if it has no power or not getting enough fuel when first taking off then it will take off like its got a turbo. its tough to drive this vehicle safely and it doesn't do it all the time. also had problems with shaking in the front at 65+ mph. put new tires on and it helped but still does it. the sliding doors wont stay open on any inclines only on level ground. the brakes have pulsated/shake since about 10000 miles. had metalic rattle coming from front tires when turning but only does it on occasion, usually when turning and backing up. the radio volume will sometimes lock and not turn up or down. it carries a 10 yr, 100,000 mile warranty and contacted dealer and hyundai corporate office and are unwilling to replace any parts saying no code and can't duplicate problem for the surging.
