I sent a notice before explaining what happen but I was mcdonald's line my car was in park and when I try to put it in drive I heard a click noise my car wouldn't move out of park and after holding the line up over an hour I had someone to help me move it. It was after 9pm so I had to sleep in my car until midnight waiting for help I finally was able to get the car towed to my home and it was a $90 fee I missed 3 days of work to find a local mechanic to fix it because Hyundai said my car wasn't under warranty it had expire so now I barely drive it but still have to make payment it still not fixed correctly now when I try to shift gears it takes a while before the computer reads it.

2 Noises During Shifting problem

Failure Date: 06/01/2013

Where do I start. This car has been more pf a pain than anything. After dealing with the steering sensitivity issue which resulted in new tires at 12000 miles, I now have a transmission issue that the dealer cannot diagnose. Beginning one month ago the car started making a loud whooshing noise eminating from the underside of the car. Thought nothing of it as I assumed that it was the new tires. Then came the transmission clunks after rapidly accelerating then decelerating. A couple of weeks ago the car, on several occassions, would clunk after starting and putting it into gear. Then the transmission would continue to shift hard through every gear, both during the upshifting and downshifting process for appx. 1. 5 miles, then it would resolve itself. I also noticed that the car often fails to accelerate when attempting to overtake other vehicles. The car has been at the dealer for almost a week now and they are unable to determine what is causing this (cannot duplicate during test drives and no codes stored in the computer).
