2001 hyundai santa fe lurches when gear is put to drive, or when driving at low or high speeds where it is worst (feeling that we just got rear ended). Started about 3 months ago. This happened before, about 3 to 4 years ago, and was diagnosed and have replaced the input/output speed control by the dealership. This seems to be a rampant problem that needs to be addressed soon because it is big safety issue. *tr
