Consumer Description

CAR HESITATE TO START. ONCE ON ESC OFF LIGHT IS ON AND YOU CAN GO ANY FASTER THAN 15MPH. IF YOU TURN THE CAR OFF AND CRANK IT AGAIN THE LIGHT GOES OFF BUT YOU CAN GO PASS 2500 REMEMBER OR ELSE IT BUCKS AND JERKS AND ENGINE REVS BUT YOU CAN'T INCREASE YOUR SPEED. IT HAS THE SAME SYMPTOMS OF RECALL FOR THE 3.3 LIKE ENGINE, BUT HYUNDAI WILL NOT FIX IT BECAUSE MY ENGINE IS 2.4L. I JUST BOUGHT THE CAR FROM HYUNDAI ON APRIL 25, 2015.
