Consumer Description

This car has a the 7 speed DCT. This transmission is VERY unsafe. I have been fighting with the transmission losing power and being jerky for the last year or so. After looking online I found that EVERYONE with this transmission is having the issue. You never know when you will have power and it has almost got me into a major accident several times. There was a Class action lawsuit agains Hyundai in 2016 for the DCT transmission and they Hyundai lost. Yet they still put the same unsafe transmission in the 2017 and said they fixed it. Hyundai needs to be held accountable for lying to the consumer as well as putting the consumer in an unsafe situation.
