I have noticed ever since purchasing this vehicle that the manual transmission grinds when shifting from 1st to 2nd gear everytime, I have also read online that thousands of people are reporting the same problem , so why has there not been a recall to address this problem, Hyundai themselves have already admitted that the transmission has a weak syncro that is causing the problem, this will eventualy lead to the transmission ceasing and someone possibly being killed, so why no recall, does someone have to die first?.
