Lawsuit Filed over Issues with Hyundai's Dual-Clutch Transmission
On November 21, 2016, a number of Hyundai owners joined together to file suit in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California against the automaker over issues with its dual-clutch transmission, used in a number of 2016 and 2017 models. According to court filings, in the case of Nicholas Wylie and Shawna Wylie v. Hyundai Motor America (case # 8:2016cv02102), the plaintiffs allege that the design of the transmission leads to stalls and hazardous failures when shifting.
