. When I bought it it had 98,000 km on it. Still under warranty and I had all the recalls from a few years ago done to bring it all up to date. I religiously changed the oil, rotated tires, fluids updated, new battery, etc. In 6 years I have put 8000km on the car since I bought it and while driving home from my daughters a few weeks ago it kept popping out of fourth gear? this happened the one time and no lights came on? then last Thursday I went to my daughters house to help out with the unpacking and on the drive home my car got stuck in 3rd gear! I couldn't get it out of third gear until I once popped the clutch and out it came. Shifting went back to normal, for a while then I could not get it to go into any gear! I am on my way home in rush our traffic and the car will not go into any gear but seems to be stuck in 5th or 6th gear? by reving up the engine to about 4000 and letting the clutch out slowly while reving it would slowly start going and eventually it would be going ok stuck in whatever gear but there were traffic lights!! I had to pull over once and had the police pull in behind me. When I explained to her what was happening she said she understood her brother had the same problem? I was finally able to get it home in the scariest ride ever (through 2 red lights and a stop sign) and it was smoking and stinking! now I have a car with insurance ($1200 yr. ) on it and 1. 5 years left on the loan ($288. 00) a month. 50% of my income goes to rent. I live cheque to cheque. My most important lifeline is my car and now I cannot afford to fix it and it won't drive. Is there not enough problems with this same thing on the same car and same year it should be a recall. 6,000km over the warranty and the transmission goes? I drove it 8000km in 6 years and the transmission goes? what kind of grace do you give on km over 100km warranties.

This cars engine just shuts off when driving, it will not go into gear even though it says it's in drive etc. My husband parked the car in our flat driveway and the car went forward crushing him against the house. I pulled the car backwards even though it was it said it was in park to free him. Contacted Hyundai corporate and they said they were not responsible. Will be contacted a lawyer because this was caught on video from my ring doorbell. This happens all the time where it will not go into gear and you have to shut the car off and on 3xs before it will go into gear. Hyundai dealer says they can't duplicate the problem.
Driving down the freeway, started to accelerate in sport mode, heard something pop. Sounded like the clutch slipped or a belt broke. Lost most acceleration. Got off freeway to take side streets home. Had a lot of trouble accelerating up hill. Would accelerate but very slowly. Not on pace with gears. Was shifting weird. Both in d and s. Took me about 4 blocks to get from 0 to 25mph.
Sometimes the transmission will not go into gear upon starting the vehicle. This primarily occurs when first starting the car and shifting into reverse. The shifter will go into place but the car does not move when pressing the accelerater. So far this problem has been able to be resolved by putting it back in park, turning off the car, and restarting it.

The dual clutch transmission is faulty. I took off from a parking lot intending to tuen left on to the street. I was cut off by a truck coming into the parking lot and had to hit the brakes quickly. Once the truck passed the car would not move. It just revved like it was in neutral with the shift lever in drive. There was traffic coming my way as I sat in the strret but the vehicle finally got back in gear. The other day I was on the freeway and the car ahead stopped suddenly and I had to brake. When I looked the car was in 3rd gear according to the dash display. The transmission lagsand sometimes does not know what gear it is in if you creep at a red light. The recall has made it worse and now the dealer refuses to communicate or set up a service appointment because I am in a class action lawsuit against Hyundai. I was sent a video by Hyundai showing how you have to modify your driving habits of 56 years. I was never instructed of this at purchase or told about it. It is very scary driving this vehicle and I have no other option other than voluntary reposession.
When the car is first turned on and put into reverse it periodically will not go into gear. If you put the car back into park and then into reverse it still will not go into gear. You must put the car into neutral and then into gear. This has happened twice in the past two months. We have recorded the transmission not going into gear and both Hyundai of America and our dealer are doing nothing. I've been told that if they can't reproduce it themselves 'it is operating as designed'. This is a major component of any car and it having gear changing issues makes me concerned that it could escalate beyond this.
