The forward accident avoidance system repeatedly cuts off the gas and prevents the car from moving even when there is nothing that could be considered a hazard in front of the car. It leaves me stranded half way through a turn in an intersection or the entrance to a parking lot. The gas pedal is disabled until the computer decides that it is safe. The service manager at the dealer says there is nothing they can do as the system is extremely sensitive and they get a lot of complaints about it. To be left in the middle of an intersection as the light changes and cross traffic starts or to to be stopped halfway through a turn onto a road with approaching traffic is not safe.
When cruise control is activated, the engine RPM automatically increases by about 700 RPM. At 75 MPH, the engine RPM is 2300. When control is activated, engine RPM increases to 3000 RPM and remains there. This decreases gas milesge and increases wear on engine.

2020 hyundai elantra. Consumer writes in regards to unintended acceleration. *ld the consumer stated the cruise control was activated. While driving up a hill, the vehicle sped up past the set speed. The dealer and manufacturer were notified and stated the vehicle was operated as designed. While driving, the steering suddenly jerked to the left about 1.5 inches. The dealer turned the sensitivity level on the lane assist. Also, the vehicle does not a metal screen over the air intake for the heater. This could allow rodents to enter into the cab.
When I pulled out of my drive way at about 5 MPH and began increasing speed (10-15 MPH), I felt like my front tires may have needed air. I checked my dash and confirmed that all the sensors for tire pressure were on and working and the air pressure seemed to be fine. I began to increase speed and by this time was traveling east bound at aprox. 55 MPH on the hwy, when the front left tire suddenly felt loose. I wasn't sure if it was my tire or the road itself but before I could even switch lanes my tire seemed to jerk me over to the left side of the road. My back tire fell off the ledge of the hwy and caused me to pull the wheel to try to correct the imbalance but I didn't have enough time before the steering wheel was wandering off toward the left causing me to smash head on into a tree into the center divider.
