Passenger seat air bag indicator flashes and warning sound indicates seat belt is not buckled when nobody is in the seat. When accelerating, there are multiple hesitations where the car feels like it is in park or neutral. After about 15-30 seconds, the car starts accelerating normally

I was on the way to take my daughter to her sister's house, and the vehicle stalled while we were stopped because of traffic on the freeway. So, i had to put it in park or neutral, and turnover the car once i turned it off for a moment.

About 3 months ago my 2013 hyundai elantra became sluggish in accelerating. It has gradually gotten worse. I tried fuel cleaners, premium gas, and now a tune up replacing coil packs and plugs. The vehicle crawls and does not accelerte as quick as it should. It cuts off or refuses to move when given gas at all stops. I switch off then on at red lights as it seems to want to take off when the engine is started. When i…
