Check engine light comes on and off, no issue for few months, recently while stopping at red light with foot on brake, the rpm started increasing and vehicle tried to move forward, it took me by surprise and i was about to crash into the vehicle in front of me. this happened to me few times already, and everytime it is scary. i had to push hard on the brake to prevent the car from moving. i tired to change the gear from d to n, and that helped preventing the car from moving but the rpm jumped even higher and the engine made laud noise. i took the car to a mechanic, they connect it to the computer and said the coolant temp sensor and crank position sensor need to be replaced, that is $140 parts plus 4 hours of labor. talked to hyundai dealer, they said never heard of this problem, and there is no recall on it, so they have to do their own troubleshoot and i'm responsible for the bill. vehicle has about 90k miles on it, i did not fix it yet, but i'm minimizing my driving on it. *tr | |||

I bought this car mid-april of this year, had it two weeks and get cut off in the middle of the road. my children and i could have been hurt because of this. since then, the car has cut off a total of eight times and it's only been a month that i have had this car. i have taken the car back for service a total of 3 times and the mechanics are saying that the computer isn't reading any problems. they have had my car all week to try to duplicate the problem. they are saying that they must duplicate the problem to diagnose a remedy. i have been inconvienced and disappointed in all aspects of this situation. what were they doing to diagnose problems before computers were invented? i believe that they (the mechanics) need to go back to that long lost skill to remedy the problem and fix my car. i am totally disgusted in this whole matter. *ak | |||
