I have taken my car to the dealer on 3 occasions because I can feel a very rough jerk when the transmission shifts at speeds between 30 and 45 MPH and/or again at 50-65 MPH. I am about to make a 4th appointment for the same problem. The service dates are 9/29/03 odometer = 35831; 3/27/04 odometer = 43206; 5/29/04 odometer = 45826. Currently odometer = 53991. Each time the repair, which was under warranty, involved a software download. On 5-29-04, the sop cruise switch was replaced. This still has not fixed the problem. Now I am very concerned because the warranty will soon expire and I will either have to start paying for the repair or buy a new car sooner than I had planned. I like both the car and the dealer. I just want to get the problem resolved.

On two occasions I have had a chip in the front windshield of my 2001 hyundai 300l, the first time was august 2002, this was repaired through my insurance company. The second time was in november 2002 - this has not been repaired. One of my friends has a hyundai accent and he just had a stone chip and windshield had to be replace. I had mine fixed at safe-t-glass in wallkinll ny and they informed me that they fix more hyundai windshields than any other car. My friend had his replaced at rosen's glass in middletown, ny this past week and the owner stated that hyundai glass is "'!@#$%" and they have replace a "ton" of them. I want to know if this is a defective safety product and can this be checked into? Thank you - ken nagle.
