| 1996 | LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:DOORS:LATCH | I HAVE A 1996 HYUNDIA ACCENT ,I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR HANDLE 3 TIMES. THE FIRST TIME THE DEALER SAID HE WOULD HAVE TO ORDER ONE ,BUT THIS LAST TIME HE HAD PLENTY IN STOCK ,HE SAID HE KEEPS A GOOD STOCK BECAUSE SO MANY BREAK.THIS WOULD BE A SAFETY HAZARD IF YOU WERE IN A WRECK AND COULD NOT GET OUT. IN LOUISIANA YOU CAN NOT GET AN INSPECTION STICKER WITH OUT THIS HANDLE IN WORKING ORDER. |
| 2013 | POWER TRAIN | AUG 2011 BOUGHT 2010 ACCENT AUTOMATIC WITH 38,000 MILES . AFTER I COMPLAINED OF VEHICLE VIBRATION [A KNOWN PROBLEM TO HYUNDAI] DEALER AND MANUFACTURER REPLACED TWO TRANSMISSION MOUNTS AS DEFECTIVE BUT REFUSED TO FIX ERRATIC IDLE AND PASSENGER AREA VIBRATION AT IDLE. NON-HYUNDAI MECHANICS SAID VIBRATION CAUSED BY DEFECTIVE UPPER ENGINE MOUNT. THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU AND HYUNDAI CONSULTANT VERIFIED THE VIBRATION WAS STILL THERE BUT HYUNDAI REFUSED TO FIX IT. I READ NEWSPAPER ARTICLE THAT SAID HYUNDAI ENGINEERS WORKED HARD ON MODELS TO FIX THE VIBRATION AND OTHER SUSPENSION PROBLEMS SO I TRADED THE 2010 DOG IN AUGUST 2012 FOR 2013 ACCENT SE 5-DOOR AUTOMATIC, THINKING LIGHTNING CANNOT STRIKE TWICE IN THE SAME SPOT. NOW ABOUT 1000 MILES AND 2 MONTHS AND THERE IS PLAY IN MOTOR MOUNTS, VIBRATION IN STEERING WHEEL WITH COMPRESSOR ON, ERRATIC IDLE, ROUGH RIDE AND BOUNCY FLOATING SUSPENSION, AND OTHER SMALL ITEMS, BUT VIBRATION IN PASSENGER AREA 90% GONE. FUEL ECONOMY NOT AS ADVERTISED. I TOOK CAR FOR INSPECTION AFTER ONLINE APPOINTMENT WITH MOST CONVENIENTLY LOCATED DEALER L.A. HYUNDAI AT LAX [NOT SELLING DEALER] AND MANUFACTURER ; THREE EMPLOYEES INCLUDING OWNER AND SERVICE MANAGER WOULD NOT INSPECT THE CAR , SHOUTING MATCH ENSUED, THEY CALLED POLICE TO REMOVE ME AND CAR FROM THE LOT. SEE YOUTUBE SITE LEGALADVOCATE71 FOR VIDEOS AND SITE ATTORNEY-ETHICS-ELDERLY-ABUSE.COM. POLICE ORDERED ME OFF THE LOT. STILL HAVE NOT GOTTEN INSPECTION. HYUNDAI DOES NOT BACK THEIR CARS AND WILL LIE, RETALIATE, AND THREATEN YOU WITH ARREST IF YOU SEEK SERVICE. THIS IS A HORRIBLE AUTO BUYING EXPERIENCE. THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE WHAT HAPPENED AT THE SELLING DEALER. WITHOUT AVAILABILITY OF WARRANTY SERVICE, THE CAR IS WORTHLESS NOW AND FOREVER IN ALL AREAS. HYUNDAI WILL ORDER YOU ARRESTED IF YOU COMPLAIN. *TR |
