In the morning around 9am going to work on 405 north. All the sudden I started to lose power, engine was still running but didn't accelerate at all, I came to stop end up blocking on of right lane and noticed engine sound was unusual and started shaking a lot. I called hyundai roadside assistance and my car was picked up and dropped to a kirkland hyundai dealer but they didn't find anything unusual. Service shop personal claim that car started right up and didn't find anything from diagnostics test. This incident makes me very nervous to drive this car.
Driving 20 MPH in heavy traffic lost power for approximately 3 seconds while changing from left to right lane.
