This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
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.
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. I did contact hyuandai directly and they refused to fix the problem and now the car is out of warranty and I am screwed!

The failure mileage was unavailable.
I was driving down the street to my sister house, when I got to her house I pulled up behind her car approximately 10 to 15 ft. 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.
The contact owns a 2013 Hyundai Accent. The contact stated that while driving approximately 5 mph, there was a delayed response in acceleration after the accelerator pedal was depressed. The failure recurred at low speeds intermittently. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer who informed the contact that the vehicle operated as designed. The manufacturer was notified of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 150.
