If this happens, the transmission can automatically, and without warning to the driver, switch the car into an alternate gear position.\u00a0 <strong>As a result, the vehicle may move in an unintended or unexpected direction, increasing the risk of a car crash.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In addition, a driver that switches their \u201ccar\u201d into the park position may be in for quite an unfortunate surprise.\u00a0 <strong>The shift cable issue can also fail to properly hold the car in a parked position, which would potentially allow a car to roll away and cause severe damage.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>By issuing the recall, Hyundai has promised that it will inspect and, if necessary, repair the connection between the shift cable and shift lever at no cost to current owners.\u00a0 <strong>Although no lawsuit has yet been brought, Hyundai has identified 1,171 warranty claims and seven incidents related to the transmission line issue.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you or a family member has been injured or killed by a malfunctioning or defective Hyundai vehicle or any other faulty or defective consumer product, please contact our expert Boston, MA product liability lawyers and car accident attorney specialists, 24\/7, at 617-787-3700.
