2 Transmission Gear Slipping problem

Failure Date: 03/18/2000

We've had the Elantra in the shop 7 times and the transmission replaced 3 times. The case number with Hyundai is 508316, the case number we had with the bbb is hyu-9980560. The transmission will slip into neutral when passing or accelerating, creating a possible life threatening situation. After the last time it was serviced in December, the car ran fine until just last week. Now it is happening again. Therer is a recall NHTSA campaign id number 99v178000--and according to the dealer, this has been serviced. We are not getting the support we feel we need from the dealer, and also feel that this could be a problem with others based on the number of transmissions that have been replaced in out car.
