TWO WEEKS AGO, I SAW A GROUND HOG GO UNDER MY CAR AND SEVERAL TIMES AFTER. ABOUT TEN DAYS AGO, THE TRANSMISSION WOULD STAY IN 1ST GEAR AND WOULD NOT SHIFT (WHEN STARTING). WHEN IT FINALLY DID SHIFT,AT ABOUT 4 K RPM, THE TRANSMISSION WOULD REMAIN IN THE HIGHER GEARS. TRYING TO START FROM A DEAD STOP IS QUITE SLOW. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ALSO CAME ON. I TOOK THE CAR INTO THE DEALERS. THE REPAIR MAN SAID THAT 3 OF THE CABLES WERE CHEWED. ONE FOR THE TRANS., ONE FOR THE BRAKE LEVEL INDICATOR, AND ONE FOR THE SPEEDOMETER. THE DAMAGE WAS NOT COVERED BY HYUNDAI'S WARRANTY. THEY REPLACED THE WIRES AT $402.00. IT'S EIGHT DAYS LATER. I'VE LOST THE SPEEDOMETER CABLE. FOR SOME REASON THESE WIRES ATTRACT GROUND HOG. NONE OF THE OTHER PEOPLE IN THE AREA. IN THE 19 YEARS I HAVE LIVED HERE, NONE OF THE OTHER 5 CARS I OWED HAD THIS PROBLEM. IN FACT ONE WAS A 2003 ACCENT.

HYUNDAI ACCENT 2008 car safety problem was reported on Sept 28, 2008.HYUNDAI ACCENT 2008, manufactured by HYUNDAI MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE . I RENTED AN HYUNDAI ACCENT FOR ONE DAY, AND OCCASIONALLY WHEN I BRAKE TO STOP FOR TRAFFIC OR FOR A RED LIGHT THE CAR ENGINE WOULD SURGE AND YOU HAD TO PRESS HARD ON THE BRAKE TO KEEP IT FROM MOVING. THE ENGINE WOULD SURGE TO 2,000 RPMS WHILE IN DRIVE, AND WHEN I SHIFTED IT TO NEUTRAL ONCE IT SURGED TO 5,000 OR 6,000 RPMS. I REPORTED IT TO THE RENTAL COMPANY WHEN I RETURNED IT, BUT THOUGHT THAT I SHOULD ALSO REPORT IT HERE. I DO NOT KNOW THE YEAR OF THE CAR, BUT IT HAD 15,000 MILES ON IT, SO I WOULD GUESS THAT IT WAS A 2008. IF YOU DID NEED TO CONFIRM THE YEAR OF THE CAR, IT HAD MASSACHUSETTS PLATES WITH THE LICENSE NUMBER 2JN280. I WAS STRONG ENOUGH TO KEEP THE CAR FROM MOVING ANYTIME IT SURGED, BUT PERHAPS A SMALLER PERSON OR AN OLDER PERSON WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO KEEP THE CAR FROM MOVING. SEVERAL YEARS AGO I RENTED A CAR OF A MODEL I DO NOT RECALL AND THE SURGE WAS SO STRONG THAT I COULD NOT KEEP THE CAR FROM MOVING, BUT THIS WAS NOT AS BAD. *TR.Mileage was 15150 miles. HYUNDAI ACCENT 2008 problem was reported in WASHINGTON, DC. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. VEHICLE SPEED: 0 mph.

HYUNDAI ACCENT 2008 car safety problem was reported on Oct 18, 2008.HYUNDAI ACCENT 2008, manufactured by HYUNDAI MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . I HAD THE CAR CHECKED BY THE FACTORY REP, AND SERVICE MGR. AT CRESTMONT HYUNDAI VIA A ROAD TEST. I DESCRIBED THE VIBRATION PROBLEMS WITH THE TIRES AND THEY BOTH AGREED TO "LOAD " BALANCE THE TIRES, WHICH TOOK AWAY MOST OF THE TIRE PROBLEMS. THE SECOND PROBLEM IS WITH THE SHIFTING OF THE TRANSMISSION ( AUTOMATIC) WHEN COLD OR HOT. WHEN COLD GOING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE THE CAR HAS A " DEAD" ZONE BEFORE IT WILL ENGAGE INTO DRIVE. THESE FEW SECONDS THAT I WAIT FOR IT TO ENGAGE HAS CAUSED PROBLEMS IN TRAFFIC, WHICH I FEEL WILL RESULT IN A ACCIDENT. WHEN IT DOES ENGAGE IT SHIFTS VERY ABRUPTLY OR BASICALLY "LUNGING " INTO DRIVE. THE FACTORY REP. EVEN SAID THE NATURE OF THE CAR SHIFTING THE WAY IT DOES IS NORMAL. UPON EXITING THE H/WAY IF THE CAR DOES NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT TIME TO SEND THE SIGNAL FROM THE COMPUTER TO THE TRANSMISSION, IT SEARCHES FOR THE SIGNAL OR ABRUPTLY SHIFTS INTO DRIVE OR HANGS IN A SEMI NEUTRAL "ZONE" BEFORE ENGAGING. IF THIS IS A NORMAL OPERATION OF THIS CAR, SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE HURT OR KILLED AS A RESULT OF IT. PLEASE HELP BEFORE I TAKE A HIT ON TRADING AWAY THIS CAR FOR A HONDA OR TOYOTA. I WAS ASSURED WHEN I WAS PURCHASING THIS CAR THAT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A AUTOMATIC AND MANUAL TRANS. THAT THE GAS MILEAGE WAS NEGLIGENT. I NOW KNOW THAT THE FINANCE MGR. WAS DEFINITELY WRONG AND I WAS A FOOL FOR NOT DOING MY "HOMEWORK" . THE GAS MILEAGE IS ACTUALLY WORSE THAN MY 1991 HONDA CIVIC HATCHBACK, THAT HAS ALMOST 180,000 MILES ON IT. GO FIGURE THAT ONE OUT!!!! *TR.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):KMHCN46C08U. HYUNDAI ACCENT 2008 problem was reported in ELYRIA, OH. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES.

DURING MORNING TRAFFIC MY HYUNDAI 2002 ACCENT GS WAS HIT FROM THE REAR. THE COLLISION CAUSED MY SEAT TO COLLAPSE. THE SEAT COLLAPSING CAUSED MY BODY TO TRAVEL TOWARDS THE REAR OF THE CAR. I STRUCK ANOTHER VEHICLE WITH THE FRONT OF MY CAR WHICH CAUSED MY BODY TO GO FORWARD. I NOTIFIED HYUNDAI ABOUT THE INCIDENT IN WRITING AND THERE RESPONSE WAS THAT THE SEAT WAS DESIGNED TO ABSORB THE IMPACT AND THAT THEY HAD NO OTHER COMMENT ON THE MATTER.

I HAVE ALSO DONE RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON THAT HAS HAD A SEAT COLLAPSE IN A REAREND COLLISION.
