WHILE PULLING ONTO A CITY STREET AWAY FROM A CURB, THE CAR LUNGED FORWARD AND WOULD NOT CONTINUE TO DRIVE.I CHECKED TO SEE IF THE GEAR SELECTOR HAD JUMPED OUT OF D TO N. DID NOT. TRIED TO CONTINUE DOWN THE STREET, AND THE CAR DID THE SAME THING AT DIFFERENT INTERVALS. TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT SHIFT PROPERLY OUT OF 1ST GEAR. RPM'S AND ENGINE CONTINUED TO OPERATE, BUT TRANSMISSION WAS CONTINUING TO GRIND, BANG, JUMP AND NOT SHIFT. AFTER COAXING THE CAR TO MY RESIDENCE, SOME THREE OR FOUR BLOCKS AWAY, I NOTIFIED THE 24 HOUR HYUNDAI ASSISTANCE LINE. BEING SUNDAY, THEY COULD NOT HELP. NO WAY TO TOW CAR TO DEALERSHIP. DROVE CAR TO DEALERSHIP AT ROUGHLY 15 MPH. CAR CONTINUED TO BALK AND JUMP. DEALER MANAGER WAS CONTACTED ON MONDAY MORNING. AFTER CHECKING WITH HYUNDAI AND A COMPUTER READOUT ON AUTO, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT IT WAS A DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSION. TRANSMISSION WAS ORDERED AND REPLACED. INTERESTING TO KNOW IF OTHER CUSTOMERS HAVE HAD SAME PROBLEM. MAY LEAD TO A TOTAL RECALL OF THE 2011 AND 2012 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS ON THE HYUNDAI ELANTRA AUTOMOBILES. INVESTIGATION NEEDS TO BE CONDUCTED!! *TR
