| 2001 | POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION | BRAKES--THIS VEHICLE WAS IN THE DEALER'S SHOP 5 TIMES FOR BRAKE REPAIRS, STARTING AT 4,100 MILES. CALIPERS AND MASTER CYLINDER REPLACED, BUT STILL EXPERIENCING BRAKING PROBLEMS. DEALER CLAIMS THERE IS NOTHING MORE WRONG W/BRAKES. ONE TIME WHEN TAKING IT IN FOR SERVICE, FRONT BRAKES MEASURED AT 5/32. SIX DAYS LATER STILL EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS, TOOK IT TO DEALER AND FRONT BRAKES MEASURED 1/32!!!!! DEALER ALSO "ADJUSTED" THE REAR BRAKES, WHICH WAS NEVER FULLY EXPLAINED TO ME. TRANSMISSION: EXPERIENCED PROBLEMS W/ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON.....DEALER REPLACED PULSE GENERATOR. FIVE DAYS LATER, ENGINE LIGHT ON AGAIN--VEHICLE VERY LOW ON TRANSMISSION FLUID, MAKES LOUD CLUNKING NOISE WHEN SHIFTING GEARS (ESP TO DRIVE OR REVERSE). DOES NOT SHIFT UP FROM EITHER 2 TO 3 GEAR, OR 3 TO 4 GEAR. REPORTED PROBLEM TO DEALER, WHO CAN'T GET THE CAR IN FOR 2 DAYS TO LOOK AT IT. WILL HAVE VEHICLE TOWED TO DEALER.*AK |
| 2009 | SERVICE BRAKES | I HAVE A 2009 HYNDAI ACCENT. MY BRAKE LIGHTS ARE GOING ON AND OFF. AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE I FOUND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR BRAKE LIGHT SWITCHES. I CALLED MY LOCAL HYNDAI DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED THAT MY VIN # WAS NOT UNDER THE RECALL. LEADING ME TO BELIEVE THAT THEY DID NOT MAKE THE RECALL LARGE ENOUGH TO COVER ALL THE CARS THAT ARE AFFECTED BY THIS MALFUNCTION. THE DEALERSHIP IS NOW WANTING $175.00 TO REPLACE THIS. THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT OR ANYTHING THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED THIS ISSUE IN MY CAR. *TR |
