NHTSA Complaint #10839266 — 2011 HYUNDAI TUCSON

I'VE BEEN HAVING A SERIOUS, REOCCURRING PROBLEM, THAT THE SERVICE TEAM CONTINUES TO MISS-DIAGNOSE. WHILE ACCELERATING, MY CAR WILL SUDDENLY LOSE ALL POWER. THE ENGINE CONTINUES TO FUNCTION JUST FINE, AND THE RPM'S CONTINUE TO RISE (VERY RAPIDLY), BUT NO POWER IS BEING TRANSFERRED TO THE WHEELS. THE SERVICE TEAM HAS DECIDED THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH MY TIRE PRESSURE, WHICH IS CLEARLY NOT THE CASE. THIS ISSUE IS EITHER SOFTWARE RELATED, OR IS SYMPTOMATIC OF A DRIVETRAIN PROBLEM, TRANSMISSION, TRANSFER CASE, OR FRONT/REAR DIFFERENTIAL. THIS IS A SERIOUS CONCERN FOR MY SAFETY, AND THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY. I'M REPORTING TO THE NHTSA. I HAVE BEEN DRIVEN OFF OF THE ROAD TWICE BECAUSE OF MY INABILITY TO ACCELERATE WHEN NEEDED. TODAY WAS THE SECOND TIME I HAVE ENDED UP ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, SHAKEN, CRYING AND AFRAID. I HAVE BEEN TAKING THIS CAR IN FOR THIS ISSUE SINCE 2012. THIS HAPPENS ON ALL ROADS BUT IS MORE LIKELY WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE ON THE FREEWAY.
