Car has begun randomly and unpredictably "stalling" while in motion. Just simply stops moving forward for a few seconds, not responding to gas pedal. This has been both as car starts from stopped position as well as during cruising. Because most of our driving is city, we do not know if car will stall at highway speeds and we are afraid to drive on highways now. Hundai will not attempt any repair because they cannot document the problem. We feel it is either a bad computer or a transmission issue. No repairs have been attempted even though we have been into hundai several times

Fuel gauge reading periodically sporadic. Says tank is about empty or much less than actual and moves around or changes to being ok. Has acted up several times over the last 6 months.

The gas pedal and the brake are very close to each other on this car. It is very easy when viewing blind spots during backing to accidentally have the foot depress the brake and the gas pedal at the same time. I had this happen to me so far 2 times.

I am unable to access the Hyundai blue link software which controls remote start, engine stop, vehicle tracking and othet items. Hyundai dealer and Hyundai motor Corp refuses to do anything making nthis vehicle and any others with the same feature a hazard. If someone hacks into my old emailaccount they can remotely start the car in our garage killing us, or remotely start and unlock the dorrs anywhere and there is nothing we can do. These vehicles should be recalled immediately and the corporate executives who have allowed this to continue be brought up on criminal charges. The car is also equipped with summer only tires in the midwest? unsafe to drive in any cold weather with snow or ice.
