Car randomly turns off while driving. Sometimes my car will go off. Most of the time it turns back on but that is dangerous.
"I was subjected to a sudden acceleration last night while driving my 2009 Hyundai Genesis 4. 6. I left a full stop and sighted another car speeding toward a stop sign coming from my left. To avoid being broadsided I swerved to avoid and my accelerator jammed. I sped across the street and into a landscaped area. I hit a tree at that point which brought my vehicle to a stop. The driver side air bag deployed and I was wearing a seat belt. I sustained some impact injuries that appear to be of a minor nature. A lake was located just beyond the tree and I deliberately selected the medium size tree as a target. I was fortunate. I sustained a back injury some years ago and drive with two feet - one for the accelerator and one for the brake. There was therefore no chance that my foot slipped from one pedal to the other. Ref: Hyundai Genesis 4. 6 2009.
In stop & go traffic - transmission in d - with my foot on the brake, the car started to accelerate - drive wheels spun and screeched - put transmission in neutral - car seemed to return to normal.
While the vehicle was idiling or in low rpm it would start to sputter as if it was goin gto stall. I returned the vehicle to the dealer and it was a fault throttle sensor.
