While idling at a red light, car stalled out. Started right back up. Then got onto parkway and traveled about 5 minutes on the parkway and slowed a bit to exit onto the ramp, then accelerated to about 40-45 to continue and stalled while driving at that speed. We slowed and pulled over, stopped the car and restarted the car without a problem. It was a very hot day and we had the radio and air conditioning on. We took the car into Hyundai to check and they couldn't find what caused the problem. They said when the radio and a/c are being used, turn off the "eco" setting off. (a CO-worker mentioned that it sounds as if there wasn't enough fuel being injected to keep the car going. ).
This is a new car and the incidents have been present from the beginning. On numerous occasions at slow speed or when moving from being stopped, or in stop and go traffic, the car will not respond when the gas pedal is depressed. The sensation is that the car has stalled. After a moment, or several seconds, the car will surge forward, sometimes causing the tires to screech. I immediately apply the brakes to bring the car under control and the car will proceed without further evidence of a problem. In stop and go traffic this event may occur with successive stops. The event may occur 6-8 times during a local trip, or it may be several days without an event. I am unable to predict it occurring and unable to cause it to happen. I consider the car to be unsafe both because it may result in a collision with a car in front of me but also it has left me stranded in the middle of an intersection, or road, not knowing when my car will move. On several occasions the driver behind me has blown his horn as I wait for my car to move. The car has been returned to the dealer and driven by service personnel and a regional representative of the manufacturer on four separate occasions without incident. I am told there is no record of this event having occurred with this model car and there was no suggested solution. There was a comment that it may be a transmission problem. Their conclusion is that there is nothing to be done if they cannot produce the event.
