| 1999 | POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION | I NOTICED WHEN I GOT MY CAR THAT IS DID NOT HAVE GOOD ACCELERATION, BUT I FIGURED THAT IT WAS JUST BECAUSE IT ONLY HAD 85 HORSE POWER IT IS A 99 HYUNDAI ACCENT. IT ALSO HITCHED WHEN YOU WOULD GO TO STEP ON THE GAS. AS TIME WENT ON IT WORSENED. THEN ONE DAY WITHOUT ANY WARNING I WENT TO BACK UP AND I HEARD A HUGE THUNKING NOISE. I HAD LOST REVERSE IN MY TRANSMISSION AND IT DID NOT SHIFT WELL INTO FIRST OR SECOND WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO 3RD OR OVER DRIVE. I THEN LOOKED UP TO SEE IF THERE WERE ANY RECALLS ON MY TRANSMISSION AND I FOUND OUT THAT THERE WERE STARTING 20 DAYS AFTER MINE WAS MANUFACTURED. I WOULD LIKE PROOF THAT THEY WERE USING DIFFERENT SOLENOID VALVES WHEN 20 DAYS BEFORE THE RECALL STARTED BECAUSE I THINK THAT IT WAS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT NOT OPERATORS. THE CAR ONLY HAS 110736 MILES ON IT. *NM |
| 2012 | TIRES:TEMPORARY/EMERGENCY SPARE TIRE | I PURCHASED A 2012 HYUNDAI ACCENT 5 DOOR 03/02/21012 AND DISCOVERED AFTER THE PURCHASE THERE WAS NO SPARE TIRE JUST A REPAIR KIT. I WAS NOT TOLD BEFORE THE PURCHASE. WHO WOULD EVEN THINK THAT A SPARE WAS NOT INCLUDED. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD IN THE DARK AND IT'S INCLEMENT WEATHER . THE TIRE KIT INSTRUCTIONS ARE HARD TO UNDERSTAND. I CONTACTED HYUNDAI AND MY SECRETARY OF STATE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THE SAFETY ISSUE. HYUNDAI'S EXPLANATION WAS IT WAS FOR BETTER MILEAGE AND THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT HYUNDAI NOW MAKES A SPARE FOR THE 2012 ELANTRA FOR A PRICE AND THE SPARE FOR THE ACCENT IS IN PROCESS,ONCE AGAIN FOR A PRICE. IT WILL BE AN OPTION . I HAVE ALSO CONTACTED MY AAA BECAUSE IF I GET A FLAT THEY WILL HAVE TO USE THE KIT OR TOW ME,FOR A PRICE , TO THE NEAREST DEALER. BETTER MILEAGE IS GREAT BUT SO ISN'T SAFETY. *TR |
