Consumer Description

I BOUGHT THE CAR USED FROM A SCAM DEALERSHIP. I HAD NO IDEA THAT THERE WAS AN ENGINE RECALL IN JANUARY UNTIL IT TURNED OFF AND ON JUST ONE WEEK AFTER LEAVING THE LOT. I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THEM, OBVIOUSLY, THEY SAID IT WASN'T THEIR PROBLEM. I THEN TOOK IT TO COLLEGE PARK HYUNDAI TO HAVE THEM UPDATE THE KNOCK SENSOR AND DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE. AFTER AN EXTENDED ROAD TEST, IT WAS DECIDED THAT MY PROBLEM WAS AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. YET I TOOK IT TO OTHER DEALERSHIPS, AND PRETTY MUCH EVERYONE SAYS THE SAME. MY DASH CAM HAS RECORDED THE MOMENTS WHEN THE CAR STUTTERS AND FAILS TO ACCELERATE BEFORE TURNING BACK ON A COUPLE SECONDS LATER. IT HAS HAPPENED ON CURVES AND I HAVE NEARLY DROVE OFF THE HIGHWAY DUE TO THIS. IT ONLY HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS REACHING ABOUT 60MPH. I LIVE IN MD BUT WORK IN VA. I'M PAYING HIGH INTEREST FOR A CRAPPY LEMON CAR. I EVEN CONTACTED CORPORATE HYUNDAI, AND THEY JUST LAUGHED AND CALLED ME STUPID FOR BUYING A USED CAR...
