Hi, my wife noticed the other day that she was having a problem with her Tucson. After she is stopped, when she presses on the gas to drive again, the vehicle jerks and will hardly go. Once she gets it to about 15 mph, it kicks in and is fine. So, I drove it yesterday and noticed the same thing happening. Has anyone else had this problem?

A woman I work with just asked me about this same issue on her 2005 Tucson. I suspected a vacuum line but her husband got it to the dealer and they found a loose clamp on the air intake line. This obviously was upsetting the fuel/air ratio and in the very cold weather we were having it proved very problematic. My advice is to first check any and all clamps pertaining to air intake (she wasn't specific so I can't tell you which to look for). If you can't find a loose one I would check with the service shop. Odds are this happens a lot so they may know exactly where to look. Hope this helps.
