Since I bought this 2017 Hyundai Tucson in oct, 2016, I've had ongoing problems with the dct transmission, even after Hyundai installed their "software update. " I've visited the dealer twice to address the problem, and plan another visit this Friday. However, the last service rep I spoke to said, if I'm "still having these problems after the software update, there's really nothing else we can do at the dealership. " this ongoing transmission problem is a serious safety issue! this week, for example, there have been two instances where I almost had an accident due to the transmission failing to shift and stalling, causing delayed acceleration. (the current milage on car is 12,559. ) on Monday of this week, September 4, the car sat in driveway until about 3:42pm. (it was 74 degrees out and humid day. ) I pull out of drive way and the car jerks as I accelerate. I drove to intersection of old wharf rd. And rt. 6 on cape cod. Rt. 6 is a very busy highway, especially on labor day. I pull out of intersection to take a left, and the car transmission suddenly fails to shift causing me to lose significant speed. I barely get out in time as a car comes up on me from behind and almost hits me!! I could have had a serious accident! similarly, yesterday, September 6, the car has not been driven all day, the car jerks again as I leave my drive way and as I stop and turn onto old wharf rd. I go to a local store on rt. 6 highway about 1 mile away. As I'm leaving store, I accelerate fast get get on highway. There is a car coming. My car suddenly loses power again due to failure to shift and I am almost hit by the car as I get on the highway! I do not feel safe in this vehicle!! Hyundai's attempts to fix this dct transmission problem is not working! something has to be done about it soon before individuals or families get seriously injured!.
