Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON AND EXPERIENCING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS OF SLOW START AFTER A ROLLING KIND OF STOP/GO SITUATION.IT GOT REALLY BAD AND STARTED SCREECHING WHEN IN A STOP/GO SITUATION OR FROM A STOP. MULTIPLE VISITS TO DEALERSHIPS AND ALL THEY CAN SAY THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL AND THERE IS NO FIX. SIMPLE RESEARCH AND I FOUND MANY OTHERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. IN FACT HYUNDAI ACKNOWLEDGE THE ISSUE AND RELEASED A SOFTWARE PATCH BUT HAS NOT FIXED THE ISSUES. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE THE CAR AS IT DOES NOT MOVE FORWARD WHILE PRESSING ON GAS.
