2008 Hyundai Accent

MY 2008 HYUNDAI ACCENT GS WAS HAVING TROUBLE STARTING SO I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP WHERE THEY TOLD ME IT WAS A FUEL PUMP. I HAD IT REPLACE. THE CAR WORKED FINE FOR ABOUT A WEEK UNTIL I WENT TO PUT GAS IN IT. I'VE GOTTEN STUCK AT THE GAS STATION 3 TIMES AFTER I HAVE PUT GAS IN MY TANK. IT SEEMS THAT EVERYTIME I PUT GAS IN IT DOES NOT WANT TO START. IT IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY AND TWO DIFFERENT MECHANICS CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT. I'VE SEEN ONLINE THAT HUNDREDS OF HYUNDAI VEHICLE OWNERS ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM. AND I FEEL THAT HYUNDAI NEEDS TO RECALL THIS CAR. IT'S HORRIBLE. I'VE HAD COUNTLESS ISSUES WITH IT SINCE I'VE BOUGHT IT. AND I PURCHASED IT BRAND NEW FROM THE DEALER. PLEASE HELP! *TR

I OWN A 2008 HYUNDAI ACCENT, AND IT HAS ABOUT 30,000 MILES ON IT. I'VE HAD IT IN THE SHOP TWICE THIS MONTH THE FIRST TIME FOR THE COILS AND THE SECOND FOR A MISS FIRE. THIS IS GETTING TO BE RIDICULOUS, I JUST GOT IT OUT THE SHOP 2 DAYS AGO AND NOW THE STEERING IS OFF, REALLY BAD. IT WAS SO BAD I COULD BARELY KEEP IT ON THE ROAD. NOW I'LL BE TAKING THIS CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN FOR THE THIRD TIME IN ONE MONTH. *TR

THE DEALER STATED EACH TIME IT WAS A DIFFERENT DEFAULT CODE WHENEVER IT WAS BEING REPAIRED. THE CONTACT HAS BEEN UNABLE TO SPEAK WITH ANYONE AT THE HYUNDAI MANUFACTURER. THE FAILURE STARTED IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE VEHICLE HAD REGULAR MAINTENANCE SERVICE PERFORMED. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 23,000.

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
