My wife rented an Hyundai Accent 2010 for a trip to PEI. A squirel ate through the gas line at a camp site and she needed to replace that rental with another from the same company. (The part has to be ordered and will take 10 days to arrive). Now, with abandonment fees etc. this could cost us over 2000.00. (We live in Gatineau Que).
I've heard of rodents eating engine wiring but to use the same yummy
plastic on gas lines... Are they kidding? This should be illegal. Have you heard of other cases like this? Are other new model cars doing this? We will never rent a Hyundai again.

Being a 2011, maybe a tune up? depends on the miles you drive. Have the codes read, free at autoparts stores. Let me know. Could be a broken vacuum line.
having the transmission rebuilt in 2010 means that the tranny is 7 years old since service so there can be any amount of faults
run the fault codes to check for problem TCM, VSS, servos and solenoids
check the vacuum actuator for the transmission and vacuum lines
change the transmission oil
the engine light also reports on transmission failures
when the airbag light is on it is disabled.
a scan tool can read the codes that are turning the light on,
a common problem is clockspring in the column.
