2005 Hyundai Tucson Vehicle speed control Problems

“I was out of my town picking up a toddler I was going to babysit that night, I also had my own 1.5 year old in the vehicle, on my way back home the vehicles check engine light came on, and the car would not accelerate.

I pulled into the nearest gas station turned the vehicle off then started it back up again and the check engine light was off. …”

“Misfire cylinder #5. This has been an ongoing problem shortly after my mother gave me the vehicle at apx. 24,000 miles. The car was transported from the east coast here to arizona. It has been in and out of Hyundai dealerships and still no fix, with my father paying the bills, which is hard for him being on a fixed income, but my safety as well as his grand children are paramount. The vehicle will quickly slow down from a 70 MPH speed to 35mph without warning and sometimes the engine light will come on (code p0305). I made a complaint once before (case #389816). …”

“1/6/09 while driving the tuscon began to feel hesitant with slow acceleration and stalled while I was turning across traffic and malfunction light came on. Tow was required to the dealer where the tps sensor assembly was replaced. Mileage was 50209. I purchased my tuscon new in 9/2005 and since 12/05 I had the car in the dealer for malfunction light six times. On 4/26/2009 while traveling on the nj turnpike the tuscan began to operate in the same manner as in 1/09 , and thankfully, I was able to pull over to the shoulder before the tuscon stalled and caused a major accident. …”

Shift was in drive, engine went full speed, all wheels spun on ground, creating much smoke. Foot remained on brake. Note that accelerator pedal when not engaged is below level of brake pedal when it is engaged and that when accelerator pedal is full down then its level is 3 inches below the brake pedal level when it is engaged. …”

“Dt: the contact owns a 2005 hound Tucson, while on cruise control it was too tight, causing the rpms to rev. , the dealer repaired. Currently, while on cruise control it went out of the cruise control and the speed dropped rapidly. The service dealer stated they could not find the cause of the problem. This almost resulted in two accidents.”
