Consumer Description

WHEN EXCELERATIONHE CARE MAKES A NOISE, SOUNDS LIKE SHAVINGS OF METAL IN ENGINE SOME DAYS ARE WORSE THEN OTHERS. I'VE TAKEN IT TO TWO DIFFERENT HYUNDAI DEALERS AND ONE HEARD IT AND SAID THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT IS AND HAVE OTHERS WITH SAME PROBLEM AND THE OTHER DEALER SAID THEY DIDN'T HEAR ANYTHING. MY HUSBAND HAS BAD HEARING BUT ONE DAY HE DROVE IT TO WORK AND SAID HE FINALLY HEARD IT AS WELL. I DO NOTICE THAT THE PICK UP IS HESITANT MAKING IT HARD TO STAY IN FLOW WITH THE TRAFFIC AT TIMES. MY GAS PER MILAGE PERFORMANCE HAS DECREASED SOME WHAT AS WELL WHICH
