| I should start by stating that this has been an ongoing issue with this vehicle since i got it last year. at random times, while driving, my vehicle will not allow me to go above 2500k rpms, even with the gas pedal fully depressed. this may happen while i am on a slow road or, as today, when i am on the highway. it is a safety concern because i will need to merge onto the highway or speed up for some other reason and suddenly i have no power. i will be going 30mph and entering a 70mph roadway. the only way to stop this is to pull over, turn the vehicle off, and then turn it back on. i have taken it to my hyundai dealer multiple times and they have been unable to fix it or address it in any way whatsoever. it is a huge safety issue that they will not address. | |||

| This car has an automatic transmission and it pulls out of park very easily with no key in the ignition or foot on the brake. this led to my car rolling down a hill and hitting a tree with no one in the drivers seat. when i went to the dealer they tried this on another car in the lot and it did the same thing. i was told by hyundai corporate offices that this is a campaign item. i can not find this problem listed and i think it should be addressed before it leads to injury or death. *tr | |||
