Consumer Description

THIS SUV STUTTERS AND HESITATES ON ACCELERATION. AT A STOP ENTERING TRAFFIC LANES VERY UNSAFE WHILE IDLING WILL STUMBLE AND SHAKE. RPMS WILL RAMP UP WITH NO TRANSMISSION ENGAGEMENT. THIS IS OUR 3RD TRANSMISSION I DON'T THINK HYUNDAI HAS A FIX FOR THIS TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. CAR WAS $35000 WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WARRANTY EXPIRES? UNSAFE. UNACCEPTABLE MULTIPLE SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS MODEL AND ITS TRANSMISSION ONLINE HYUNDAI OFFERS NO LONG TERM SOLUTION
