I AM EXPERIENCING AN UNSAFE ISSUE WITH 2016 HYUNDAI NOT SHIFTING PROPERLY. BOUGHT ON 02/22/16 AT WILLIAMSBURG HYUNDAI, VA. IN MAY, EARLY JUNE, THERE WHERE 3 OCCASIONS AFTER STOPPING THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE AT ALL. EARLY JUNE STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION, DEPRESSED ACCELERATOR AND NOTHING, HAPPENED. THE ENGINE RPM'S INCREASED BUT NO FORWARD MOVEMENT. STARTED TO ROLL BACKWARDS ALMOST HITTING THE CAR BEHIND ME. HAD TO SHIFT TO PARK AND THEN BACK TO DRIVE TO MOVE FORWARD. MID-JUNE STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN, HIT THE GAS, THE CAR SAT STILL. THE RPM'S INCREASED BUT NO FORWARD MOVEMENT. MY WIFE HAD TO PLACE IN PARK AND BACK INTO DRIVE BEFORE SHE COULD MOVE FORWARD CAUSING HER TO SIT THROUGH THE ENTIRE CYCLE ON THE LIGHT. LATE JUNE ENTERING MEG AUTO SPA (CAR WASH), STOPPED TO ENTER THE WASHING TUNNEL AND COULD NOT MOVE FORWARD UNTIL SHIFTED THE CAR TO PARK AND THE BACK TO DRIVE. SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT AT THE DEALERSHIP ON 06/27/2016. TOLD THAT LAG IN SHIFTING WAS NORMAL FOR THIS VEHICLE. ASKED THEM TO TAKE A LOOK AT THE VEHICLE ANYWAY. DAY 1 WAS CONTACTED BY DEALERSHIP AND TOLD THAT THEY COULD NOT FIND ISSUE BUT WANTED TO KEEP THE CAR FOR A WEEK TO TEST. AT THE END OF EACH DAY THEY CONTACTED US TO KEEP US INFORMED AS THE STATUS OF THE TESTING. ON FRIDAY, JULY 1ST, I WAS INFORMED THEY WERE ABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE AND THEY WILL SEND THE DATA TO HYUNDAI ENGINEERS TO BE STUDIED. THE DEALERSHIP INDICATED THAT THEY ARE AWARE THAT OTHER DEALERS HAVING SIMILAR ISSUES AND THAT THEY ARE NOT SURE OF WHAT THE NEXT STEPS WOULD BE. WE RETURNED TO RETURN TO THE DEALERSHIP ON TUESDAY JULY 5TH WHERE WE WILL BE PROVIDED WITH A LOANER CAR WHILE THIS ISSUE IS INVESTIGATED. SO FAR THE DEALER SHIP HAS BEEN VERY COOPERATIVE AND ATTENTIVE TO OUR SITUATION. HOWEVER, AS OF TODAY, JUNE 14, 2016 THEY STILL HAVE OUR CAR AND THERE IS NO SOLUTION TO THIS ISSUE.

Potential Consequences:
TRANSMISSION FAILS TO ENGAGE. IT HAPPENED THE FIRST TIME RIGHT IN THE MORNING FROM MY DRIVEWAY. PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE AND CAR WAS INCHING FORWARD WHILE GIVING IT PLENTY OF GAS/RPMS. CAR FINALLY WENT INTO GEAR AND STARTED TO MOVE AND WAS DRIVING NORMAL FOR THE REST OF THE DAY. THOUGHT NOTHING OF IT SINCE IT ONLY HAPPENED ONCE. THEN ABOUT 3 WEEKS LATER, STOPPED AT RED LIGHT, ONCE IT TURNED GREEN I STEPPED ON THE GAS AND THE SAME THING, INCHING FORWARD, HIGH RPMS, FINALLY TOOK GEAR AFTER ABOUT 30 SECONDS AND MANY UPSET PEOPLE BEHIND ME. THIS BRING ME TO YESTERDAY, STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN TO CROSS A BUSY NON-STOPPING CROSS TRAFFIC, WAITING TO CROSS THE STREET, FOUND AN OPENING AND STEPPED ON THE GAS EXPECTING THE CAR TO MAKE IT THROUGH THE INTERSECTION. I HAD PLENTY OF TIME TO MOVE THROUGH, BUT SUDDENLY MY CAR JUST DECIDED TO NOT MOVE WHILE STUCK RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. ONCOMING CAR HAD TO SWERVE AND NEARLY HIT MY HOOD. FINALLY CAR STARTED TO MOVE TO BARELY MAKE IT OUT OF THE WAY FOR THE 2ND ONCOMING CAR, SCARY STUFF. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE AND TOLD THEM ABOUT MY 2 INCIDENTS AND WAS TOLD THIS WAS "NORMAL FOR THE TURBO". ALSO, I NOTICED THAT WHEN I DRIVE UP AN INCLINE (SAY A PARKING GARAGE) WHEN I GET TO THE TOP AND LEVEL OUT, MY CAR GETS A HUGE RUSH OF RPMS AND IM NOT EVEN STEPPING ON THE GAS. NOT SURE IF THIS IS AT ALL RELATED, BUT JUST ASSUMING THAT IT IS PART OF THE BIGGER PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION. CAR IS 2016 TUCSON, LIMITED, ULTIMATE PACKAGE, AWD I DON'T FEEL SAFE IN THIS CAR AT ALL. I HOPE THERE IS A FIX FOR THIS SOON.

ALSO, I NOTICED THAT WHEN I DRIVE UP AN INCLINE (SAY A PARKING GARAGE) WHEN I GET TO THE TOP AND LEVEL OUT, MY CAR GETS A HUGE RUSH OF RPMS AND IM NOT EVEN STEPPING ON THE GAS. NOT SURE IF THIS IS AT ALL RELATED, BUT JUST ASSUMING THAT IT IS PART OF THE BIGGER PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION. CAR IS 2016 TUCSON, LIMITED, ULTIMATE PACKAGE, AWD I DON'T FEEL SAFE IN THIS CAR AT ALL. I HOPE THERE IS A FIX FOR THIS SOON.

Potential Consequences:
HAVE HAD FOUR INSTANCES WHERE THE VEHICLE ENCOUNTERS AN ISSUE WITH MOVING FORWARD AFTER COMING TO A STOP. FIRST INSTANCE AT A STOP LIGHT, WAS UNABLE TO MOVE FORWARD AT ALL. ENGINE WOULD REV WHEN APPLYING GAS, BUT THERE WAS NO FORWARD MOVEMENT AT ALL. VEHICLE WAS NOT PLACED INTO PARK, OR HAD BRAKE ENGAGED. AFTER A FEW MINUTES OF "PLAYING" WITH GEAR SHIFT, WAS ABLE TO MOVE FORWARD AGAIN. THREE OTHER INSTANCES, AFTER COMING TO A STOP, VEHICLE WOULD ONLY CREEP FORWARD AT SLOW SPEED FOR A FEW MOMENTS EVEN IF FULLY "STEPPING ON THE GAS". IN THESE INSTANCES I NOTICED THAT THE ENGINE WAS STUCK REVVING HIGH (WAS AUDIBLE WHILE AT STOP) AND AFTER DRIVING SLOW FOR A FEW MINUTES IT SORTED ITSELF OUT. THE ENGINE STOPPED BEING STUCK AT HIGH RPMS AND THE VEHICLE REGAINED ITS ABILITY TO DRIVE FORWARD WITH USUAL HANDLING. HAVE TAKEN IT TWICE TO DEALERSHIP WHILE MENTIONING THIS ISSUE, WAS TOLD THAT UNLESS THERE WAS AN ERROR MESSAGE OR IF IT COULD BE DUPLICATED BY THEIR TECH, NOTHING COULD REALLY BE DONE. FOURTH AND MOST RECENT ISSUE, WAS IN A DRIVE THROUGH, AND THE ISSUE CAME ABOUT UPON EXITING. ENGINE WAS REVVING HIGH FROM A COMPLETE STOP, BUT WOULD ONLY CREEP FORWARD WHEN APPLYING GAS. AFTER DRIVING SLOW COMING OUT OF THE PARKING LOT FOR A FEW MOMENTS, THE ISSUE "SORTED ITSELF OUT." ENGINE RPMS DROPPED AND ACCELERATION RETURNED TO NORMAL.

ABOUT MID-MAY OF THIS YEAR MY HUSBAND EXPERIENCED LOSS OF ACCELERATION (AS IF IN STUCK IN NEUTRAL) AT A RED LIGHT. THE CAR WAS IN DRIVE, THE CAR REVVED TO 3500-4000, BUT THE CAR ROLLED BACKWARDS. THE CAR WAS WITHOUT POWER FOR ABOUT 10 SECONDS THEN TERRIFYINGLY LURCHED FORWARD AS THOUGH SLIPPING IN AND OUT OF GEAR. WE TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP ON 06/21/2016 AND WERE TOLD THAT OUR CAR NEEDED A SOFTWARE UPDATE AND ALL THE ADAPTIVE VALUES WERE RESET. WE TOOK OUR TUCSON BACK. ON 07/07/16 IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC, OUR TUCSON LOST ACCELERATION/POWER AGAIN WHEN PULLING AWAY FROM A BUSY RED LIGHT. THE ENGINE JUST REVVED UP TO 4000+ RMP, ROLLED BACKWARDS AND HAD NO POWER OR FORWARD ACCELERATION. THE CAR WAS IN DRIVE AND THE LOSS OF POWER WAS ABOUT 20 SECONDS. WE IMMEDIATELY CALLED OUR DEALERSHIP SERVICE ADVISOR AND WERE INSTRUCTED TO BRING OUR TUCSON IN IMMEDIATELY. OUR CAR WAS KEPT FOR SEVERAL DAYS AND ON MONDAY MORNING, JULY 11TH I RECEIVED A CALL STATING THAT THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE LOSS OF POWER AND NO ERROR MESSAGES WERE IDENTIFIED AND "THAT WAS JUST HOW THE DUAL TRANSMISSION (DCT) FUNCTIONS". I PICKED UP MY CAR, DROVE ABOUT TWO BLOCKS AWAY FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND LOST ALL ACCELERATION/POWER AGAIN WHEN ATTEMPTING TO TURN RIGHT ONTO A BUSY STREET FROM A STOPPED POSITION. THIS TIME THE LOSS OF POWER WAS A FULL 45 SECONDS OR MORE. THE ENGINE REVVED TO OVER 6000 RPM AND SPUTTERED, SLIPPING IN AND OUT OF WHAT FELT LIKE NEUTRAL, IT WAS TERRIFYING AND I WAS ALMOST HIT! I IMMEDIATELY RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND DEMANDED THAT SOMEONE TEST DRIVE WITH ME BUT UNFORTUNATELY IT DID NOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE. I WAS TOLD THAT THE SERVICE SUPERVISOR WOULD BE LOOKING AT MY CAR. THE LOSS OF ACCELERATION/POWER IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM AND WE DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING OUR TUCSON.

THIS TIME THE LOSS OF POWER WAS A FULL 45 SECONDS OR MORE. THE ENGINE REVVED TO OVER 6000 RPM AND SPUTTERED, SLIPPING IN AND OUT OF WHAT FELT LIKE NEUTRAL, IT WAS TERRIFYING AND I WAS ALMOST HIT! I IMMEDIATELY RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND DEMANDED THAT SOMEONE TEST DRIVE WITH ME BUT UNFORTUNATELY IT DID NOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE. I WAS TOLD THAT THE SERVICE SUPERVISOR WOULD BE LOOKING AT MY CAR. THE LOSS OF ACCELERATION/POWER IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM AND WE DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING OUR TUCSON. THE DEALERSHIP SEEMED COMPLETELY AT A LOSS AS TO WHAT COULD BE THE PROBLEM.
