NHTSA Complaint #10520742 — 2005 HYUNDAI TUCSON

MISFIRE CYLINDER #5. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM SHORTLY AFTER MY MOTHER GAVE ME THE VEHICLE AT APX. 24,000 MILES. THE CAR WAS TRANSPORTED FROM THE EAST COAST HERE TO ARIZONA. IT HAS BEEN IN AND OUT OF HYUNDAI DEALERSHIPS AND STILL NO FIX, WITH MY FATHER PAYING THE BILLS, WHICH IS HARD FOR HIM BEING ON A FIXED INCOME, BUT MY SAFETY AS WELL AS HIS GRAND CHILDREN ARE PARAMOUNT. THE VEHICLE WILL QUICKLY SLOW DOWN FROM A 70 MPH SPEED TO 35MPH WITHOUT WARNING AND SOMETIMES THE ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON (CODE P0305). I MADE A COMPLAINT ONCE BEFORE (CASE #389816). THIS CONTINUING PROBLEM WITH NO FIX HAS ME HAVE SEVERAL NEAR MISSES OF A REAR END COLLISION, WHICH SO FAR I HAVE BEEN LUCKY NOT TO HAVE. THE MOST RECENT REPAIR WAS ON JUNE 14TH THRU 15TH, 2013 AND THE PROBLEM WAS BACK ON THE MONDAY AFTER PICKING THE VEHICLE ON SUNDAY, THE 16TH. WHEN THE PROBLEM FIRST HAPPENED THE VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER THE EXTENDED SERVICE AGREEMENT AND OF COURSE IT'S NOW EXPIRED WILL THE SAME PROBLEM THAT WASN'T RESEARCHED DURING THAT TIME. I HAVE SEEN MANY COMMENTS WITH OWNERS HAVING THE SAME ISSUES ON HYUNDAI'S FORUMS, SO IT'S NOT MY IMAGINATION. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE INVESTIGATE THESE CLAIMS SO THAT THE PROBLEM CAN BE SOLVED? IF I COULD AFFORD A NEW VEHICLE IT WOULD SOLVE MY PROBLEM AND PASS IT TO SOMEONE ELSE, BUT I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO DO THAT. PLEASE HELP, THANK YOU. *TR
