| 2012 | STEERING | I BOUGHT THE HYUNDAI ELANTRA 2012 AND HAS BEEN GIVING ME PROBLEMS. THE CAR WILL NOT START SOMETIME TILL I START MOVING THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE SHIFTER. IT HAS DONE IT TO ME SEVERAL TIMES SINCE I BOUGHT IT AND I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER I PURCHASED THE CAR AND THE MECHANIC SAID THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. I ARGUED THAT THERE IS THEY EXPECT ME TO LEAVE IT AT THE DEALER FOR A WHILE TILL THEY FIND THE PROBLEM BUT THE ONLY THING IS THAT IT'S MY ONLY TRANSPORTATION. THE SHIFTER LOCKS ON ME WHILE I'M HOLDING THE BRAKE DOWN, I HAVE TO USE THE MANUAL BUTTON TO UNLOCK IT. I NOTICE THAT WHEN IT DOESN'T WANT TO START AND I MANUALLY SHIFT THE GEAR TO NEUTRAL THE CAR STARTS. THE DEALER WANTS ME TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND I ASK MY SELF HOW??? IT DOESN'T DO IT ALL THE TIME. I HAVE ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE AND I CALLED THEM BUT BY THAT TIME THEY GET TO ME I GOT THE CAR TO START. *TR |
