On the interstate, pressed the gas pedal and the vehicle did not and would not accelerate. I tried multiple times. Rpm went up to 5000 but shifting the transmission into sports mode and downshifting and upshifting made no difference in the speed of the vehicle. Speed remained the same, engine roared as if in neutral. I pulled off the interstate, cut off the vehicle for several minutes, restarted the vehicle,…

When making right turns, my car suddenly stops accelerating for a few seconds. This usually happens when either the car is stopped and then i go to turn, or turning at a very low rate of speed around a corner. When i push down on the gas pedal to go, it takes off abruptly or with a surge. This is concerning, especially if a car is following behind me. I also notice it when stopped at a light, going straight also but…

I was making a left turn on to a street going uphill and my 2017 hyundai sante fe sport awd ultimate hesitated for approximately 10 seconds. When i pressed the gas i could not get speed. My traction lights blinked on and off. I had to floor the gas to gain speed. This is extremely dangerous. I could have been t- boned or hit from behind if there was traffic on the street.

Acceleration issues. On at least two separate occasions, acceleration from a stop resulted in the car staying at the same speed.

Smart cruise control fails to brake intermittently. It is designed to match speed with the car in front of it. It usually works fine, unless another vehicle cuts in front, even if there is enough time to brake. I have to slam on the brakes manually to avoid an accident. This has happened on multiple occasions. I now fear using the cruise control at all, as it does not perform correctly 100% of the time. The dealer…

Vehicle does not respond to acceleration. Engine makes a roaring sound, however the rpms have minimal increase. This hesitation happens when passing, and when coming out of a turn or from a stop. This leaves the vehicle stuck out in traffic with no acceleration.this used to happen about once a week, however the frequency of the incidents has increased greatly and we no longer feel the vehicle is safe to drive. This…

Sometimes, when i press the gas to accelerate, my car does not go. It will move forward at a slow pace but then doesn't go as fast as i'm pressing the gas pedal, even though my rpms are increasing. This has almost caused an accident because the car does not perform as it should. Happened today for probably the 10th time since i've had the car, less than a month. Pulling out of a parking lot onto the street, my car…

When driving suddenly the car decelerates making it necessary to mash harder on the gas pedal to get the car to continue moving. The usb port does not charge which results in the phone losing battery life you can only use android and apple car onn that port so when traveling long distances you may be without directions. Its an ongoing issue.
