Dual Clutch Transmission Failure

Our 2015 Hyundai started having transmission issues just before 30,000 miles. We took our Sonata to the Hyundai Service Center 6 times over a year because of shuddering with acceleration, engine RPM revving but not engaging when in gear, Almost stalling when accelerating. All the while being told "It functions as it was designed to" with no repairs other than updating the software and being sent on our way for it to happen over and over again. Then finally we learned the 2015 Hyundai Sonata Eco was part of a class-action lawsuit because of the dual-clutch failure. Thinking it would finally be fixed, we were wrong. The lawsuit allowed Hyundai to buy back the vehicle if you bought a new Hyundai, or pay a small compensation if you sold it privately. I will never own another Hyundai.

I bought this car and I had it for 2 years when it started having engine problems. I took it to the mechanic and he told me my whole motor had to be fixed. I had no warranty on my car . The paint also started chipping off from several parts of my car including the roof and my hood. This has been the worst car i ever gotten myself into! Never buying a Hyundai ever again
