This is a new car with less than 1200 miles purchased February 2018. Experienced several issues the past 6 weeks where the car fails to accelerate when turning a corner. This has happened with both right or left turns to enter traffic from a full stop. Unresponsive for 1-2 seconds then engages with a bit of a jolt. Scary in that I do not know if the car will move forward as traffic is approaching. Driving very defensively now. This problem has happened from a straight forward dead stop. Have seen other issues of this type on line. Dealer not contacted as seems to be a manufacturers issue. Pointed this out in an on-line survey from Hyundai and no response as yet.
I have just purchased my Santa Fe sport 2.0T ultimate 4 days ago and while driving home today from work traffic was a stop and go. Car drove fine for about a mile in this traffic (I drive a total of 16 miles a day to and from work), then I tried to go after stopping and there was a big hesitation in the acceleration. The car went to 8 mph then felt as it had stalled and I almost was hit, thankfully my car started going. It did this twice in less then ten minutes and both times I was almost hit. I was on a highway during after work 5:30 rush hour traffic when this happened. This has made me not want to drive my new car I am paying for.
