WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE WITH FOOT ON THE CLUTCH, IT LURCHED FORWARD HITTING A PARKING BARRIER. DEALER DENIED MECHANICAL CAUSES. FROM THE TIME I BOUGHT THE CAR, IT HAS ACCELERATED ON IT'S OWN, GOING TO THE MAX IN RPMS, AT RANDOM TIMES. I CAN TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE GAS AND IT WILL DRIVE ITSELF. WHEN I TRY TO COME TO A STOP, IT WILL ACCELERATE AND I HAVE TO COUNTER BY HITTING THE BRAKE. WHEN TAKEN TO THE DEALER, THEY COULDN'T "REPLICATE" IT. WHEN I ARGUED WITH THE MAN, HE SAID HE WOULD HONOR THE WARRANTY WHEN THEY COULD REPLICATE IT, THOUGH THE WARRANTY IS NOW EXPIRED. I ASKED FOR SOMETHING IN WRITING, HE INITIALED THE WORK ORDER. ALSO, THE FRONT, UNDER THE BUMPER, IS WAY TOO LOW AND MADE OF WEAK MATERIAL, SO WHEN I HAVE TO GO OVER ANY KIND OF DIP, IT DRAGS, WHICH HAS CAUSED THE PIECE TO BREAK. THIS ALSO GOT UP INTO THE FENDER-WELL, WHICH CAUSED A HAZARD WITH MY TIRES. I AM STRESSED AND SCARED OF HAVING A DANGEROUS ACCIDENT. I AM CONSIDERING TRADING THE CAR IN, BUT WORRY FOR THE NEXT OWNER. I NO LONGER TRUST HYUNDAI. I FEEL LIKE MY SAFETY IS NOT A PRIORITY FOR THE COMPANY. THEY DO NOT SEARCH FOR THE CAUSE, JUST SEND ME BACK OUT IN A DEFECTIVE VEHICLE. *TR
