| 2012 | ENGINE | 1) HISTORICAL DETAILS / EVENT: WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR (AUGUST, 2012) I NOTICED THE OCCASIONAL STICKING OF THE THROTTLE AND WHEN PRESSING THE BREAK THE CAR WOULD SEEM TO WANT TO ACCELERATE - THIS WOULD HAPPEN ONCE EVERY THREE MONTHS: THE DEALER SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. 2) RECENT EVENT: ON 07/07 WHILE DRIVING AT 45MPH THE CAR IMMEDIATELY STARTED SLOWING DOWN TO LESS THEN 10MPH AND THE CHECK-ENGINE-LIGHT CAME ON. AFTER PULLING OVER AND SITTING FOR A WHILE THE CAR WOULD GO UP TO 30MPH - 40MPH: OVER THAT AND IT WOULD OCCUR AGAIN. PER THE DEALER - DROVE IT TO THEM. ON THE WAY - THIS SLOW DOWN OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES BETWEEN 30-40MPH, ONCE WHILE SLOWING / BREAKING - THE CAR IMMEDIATELY ACCELERATED (RPM OVER 2500) AND I ALMOST HAD A MAJOR ACCIDENT. DEALER DIAGNOSED IT AS A KNOWN ISSUE RELATED TO TSB: 13 FL 002 (THROTTLE BODY BORE CARBON FOULING / P2106/P2110 LIMPHOME MODE / P0638 THROTTLE ACTUATOR CONTROL RANGE AND THAT THE BREAK ISSUE WAS DUE TO EXCESSIVE BREAK BOOSTER AIR CAUSING THE THROTTLE ASSEMBLY TO LOCK OPEN. DEALER CLAIMED ISSUE WAS KNOWN BUT NOT SEEN OFTEN AND NEVER REPEATED. HAD CAR ALL DAY TO FIX (FINISHED: 07/08). ASKED DEALER ABOUT OTHER TSBS IN THE DATABASE AND WAS TOLD NONE OF THEM APPLIED OR WERE APPLICABLE. 3) RECENT EVENT: ON 07/08 AFTER LEAVING THE DEALER, GOT 9 MILES OF DRIVING WHEN IT OCCURRED AGAIN AFTER MAKING A 25MPH RIGHT TURN AND ACCELERATING TO 40MPH [ALMOST WAS READ-ENDED BY A TRUCK]. DEALER NOW CLOSED FOR THE EVENING. WILL BE CONTACTING DEALER FIRST THING ON 07/09 AND DEMANDING FIX AND/OR REPLACEMENT - AS THIS IS NOW MULTIPLE TIMES WITH THE DEALER DENYING THE SEVERITY OF THIS. *TR |
| 2010 | POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION | THE VEHICLE STOPS OR STALLS ON SHIFTING FROM FIRST TO SECOND GEAR. IT HAS JUST DIED MERGING INTO TRAFFIC FROM A STOP SIGN AND I HAVE BEEN FORCED TO ROLL TO THE SHOULDER. IT WILL NOT ALWAYS PULL UP AN INCLINE FROM A STOP SUCH AS A STEEPER DRIVEWAY. I HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFUL TO "FIX' THIS BY SHIFTING INTO NEUTRAL AND THEN BACK IN GEAR. THIS PROBLEM IS WELL DOCUMENTED IN THE HYUNDAI FORUMS ON LINE. *TR |
