“Once I am driving on the highway the car seems to loose power almost like if the car wants to shut off the rmp goes low then the check engine light has turned on. I have taken it for its service on time and no issues but the good year rep told me the error code they received was p0326 which is the knock sensor and now the engine light went away but it has happened twice so far within the last two months.”

On the curb and on the street, I stopped the car, put in in park while still running, when I touched the switch to turn the car off, the gas pedal went to the floor and the car ran into the car in front of me not ejecting the seat belt.”
NHTSA complaint #10615973, filed 2014-07, 100 miles“Takata recall: I had took my car into the dealership multiple times while it was under warranty because it gets stuck when shifting gears and won't pick up the power when accelerating. While the on the highway it drives horrible and the steering is unpredictable. Each time that I took it into the hyunadai dealership they can't figure out what wrong with it. While it was still under warranty I did take it to other places to see what they would say and they all noticed the issue and stated that it appears that it's with the transmission. …”
