Failure Date: 05/02/2020

2013 Veloster non turbo, stalls while driving. When starting vehicle, shifter moves but transmission does not engage. Car must be shut off and restarted after a short period and car will go into gear. This issue has been sporadic, the vehicle is unreliable and the stalling is extremely dangerous.

3 Transmission Not Engage problem of the 2016 Hyundai Veloster

Failure Date: 07/22/2019

Upon turning and going over any kind of significant bumps or uneven surfaces the vehicle fish-tales from the back. I have tried it on different streets to ensure its the same issue and the issue is still present. I almost lost control of the vehicle on the freeway due to a small patch of uneven road. I have driven other vehicles over the same freeway spot to ensure it wast just my vehicle but did not get the same issues as I do with my vehicle. Also when coming to a full and complete stop and then putting my foot on the accelerator to move the vehicle forward the transmission does not engage correctly, either it waits to engage after the car reaches 4,000 rpm or jerks suddenly into gear both occur are on a daily basis. Another key problem with this vehicle happens when taking my foot firmly off the brake and pushing the accelerator on a hill, per the manufacturer the vehicle is suppose to wait about 15-20 seconds on a hill to allow me time to step on the gas to get the vehicle moving and prevent rollback into traffic or obstacles behind me however it is either not working correctly or defective.
