NHTSA Complaint #10640683 — 2012 HYUNDAI VELOSTER

MY CAR HAS BEEN HAVING A "CHUGGING" FEELING AROUND 20-40MPH FOR A WHILE ALMOST LIKE ENGINE IS NOT GETTING ENOUGH FUEL. I WAS STOPPED AT INTERSECTION AND WENT TO ACCELERATE AND CAR DIED AS IF I RAN OUT OF GAS OR WENT INTO "LIMP MODE". IT WOULD NOT TURN BACK ON AND AFTER A FEW MIN. IT DID START ONLY FOR THE SAME THING TO HAPPEN ABOUT A MILE LATER. TOOK IT TO BE LOOKED AT THE FOLLOWING DAY THEY FOUND SOME CHEWED WIRES FIXED THAT. THOUGHT THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED THEN ABOUT A MONTH LATER I WAS DRIVING BETWEEN 70-75MPH ON HIGHWAY SUDDENLY SPEED RAPIDLY DECREASED TO 20MPH WAS REVVING ENGINE AT OVER 4K RPM AND CAR WOULD NOT GO OVER 20MPH! AFTER A FEW MILES DRIVING AT 20MPH SPEED KICKED BACK IN AND GOT HOME SAFELY. WENT TO DRIVE IT THE FOLLOWING DAY AND CAR WENT INTO "LIMP MODE" WHILE AT STOP LIGHT ABOUT TO GET ON THE HIGHWAY STARTED BACK UP AFTER A FEW MIN. TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP THEY FOUND NO ERROR CODES THEY DROVE IT AND COULD NOT FIGURE OUT ANYTHING THAT WAS WRONG. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE DAILY DURING RUSH HOUR ON THE HIGHWAY! HAVE FOUND PEOPLE WITH SIMILAR ISSUES AND SAME RESULTS WHICH IS NOTHING. HAVE LOOKED UP SOME POSSIBLE CAUSES MAYBE RELATING TO THE FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR, THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR, AND/OR THE FUEL RAIL PRESSURE SENSOR BASED ON VELOSTER FORUM BUT SO FAR NO SOLUTION TO MY PROBLEM AND DEALERSHIP WANTS ME TO CONTINUE DRIVING IT. *TR
