| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Clutch slips while trying to accelerate to any speed. was entering highway and car would not accelerate on ramp almost causing a fatal accident. dealership says i ride the clutch and wore it out. i have owned several manual transmission cars in the past and never once had a clutch go bad. car only has 29000 miles on it. mechanic told me that even with riding the clutch there is no way it should go out so soon. faulty clutch assembly??? i think so. hyundai needs to step up to their responsibilities and send a recall so that all of these "near" accidents don't turn into fatalities. fatalities due to faulty parts=lawsuits...lawsuits=millions. get your act together hyundai. *jb |
