Engine began to slow down. . . I pulled off the freeway safely as the car beeped and displayed a warning: �hybrid drive failure. Place car in p. Do not drive� they should also add, call a wrecker, in all fairness. Waiting on Hyundai's answer. After tractoon issues in ice and snow in addition to this. . . When I get this car back, she's a goner! I need a real vehicle.
Tl-the contact owns a 2014 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated that while driving at 80 mph, the vehicle failed to accelerate while depressing the accelerator pedal as the rpm's increased and the service engine warning light illuminated. The stated was able to pull off the roadway, shift the vehicle to park,turn of the motor, restart the vehicle and shift to drive at this item the vehicle was able to accelerate and operate correctly. The contact also mentioned that when the failure occurred the gear shifter was not registering a position such as drive or park. The contact stated that at times the vehicle fails to downshift. The contact stated she called drivetime used cars 8341 indiana Ave, riverside, CA 92504 (951) 353-2277 where she recently purchased the vehicle and was advised to take the vehicle to pep boys in san bernardino, CA where it was awaiting diagnosis. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 62,000. Aa.
My safety issue is that my vehicle would not start unless it is in neutral or it would not shift at all. It happens when I am in park or when I am driving it is in drive but goes to neutral on its own. So while I drive and it does that I have to shift to neutral and then back to drive. Sometimes I will be parked and I turn on the car and it won't shift at all. I have tried to take it in and I have called the manufacture and no one thinks it is a safety issue because they keep giving me the run around. I have taken it in and they told me that it was not listed on my appointment. Shouldn't that be priority?.
Brought car in for service and mentioned issue with slipping transmission. Was told there was a slow leak and it would need to be replaced under warranty. Transmission was replaced but the same symptoms still occurred. Dealer then replaced the transmission a total of 4 times before giving the car back to me with the same problem. After an escalation to corporate and many months of back and forth I receive an urgent phone call to bring my vehicle in immediately because the computer system apparently had the wrong part number in it and the transmission they had been putting in all this time was the incorrect one. I am currently still waiting for the vehicle to be returned to me once again with the right transmission in it and see if the problem is now corrected. However, I have no idea what residual issues the vehicle may now have based on having the incorrect transmissions in there for more than 1000 miles.
Hesitation and delays in acceleration when driving from 0 - 30 mph. Originally it started with the rpms dropping way down before catching. Brought the car in for service and they replaced a brake sensor. The problem became much worse. When reaching 30 mph the transmission felt like it went into neutral and had a problem catching. Rpms jumped way up to 4 and revved 3 times before catching. Leaving me unable to have control over the car. Very scary. The car has been at the dealership for a week and will not duplicate the problem when driven by the mechanics and is not throwing any codes. According to the dealership they are unable to fix this because they do not know what the problem is. I am being told to bring it back if it happens again. The majority of my driving is city driving. My commute to work is approximately 30 miles round trip, 5 days a week and seemed to get worse in the rain.
My vehicle has for the last year showed signs of the recall and we have gotten a Hyundai to fix it with a ring but the next day the vehicle showed the same things. The symbol in the middle that displays drive when it disappears the car struggles to accelerate and drive , and when I come to a complete stop with it disappereared the car takes alot of gas to accelerate. Which I believe is from the transmission and the car not being on the same page. . Which is terrible as it can cost a lost of life due to the car suddenly stopping and it is a extreme hazard to myself and my family. And I wish that Hyundai would do something or replace the vehicle.

I own a new 2014 Hyundai Sonata, and my main concern from what I recently have researched is that some of these vehicles are prone to major motor and power train problems, that can lead to fatalities. I understand that the NHTSA has been notified of these problems, and there is a current class action lawsuit pending. What I'd like to ask is, why a recall has not been issued by the agency, given the grave nature that one of these motors could potentially seize while driving at high speed and can very well lead to fatalities. A personal note: when I first bought the vehicle. In August 2014, it stalled once, while driving at 5-10 miles mph, I took it to the dealer and they found nothing wrong with it. It has not happened ever since.
