| 2007 | STRUCTURE:BODY | YET ANOTHER DOOR HANDLE HAS FALLEN OFF MY 2007 HYUNDAI ELANTRA! THIS IS #4. THIS VEHICLE IS ONLY 4 YRS OLD, AND YET 4 OF THE DOOR HANDLES HAVE BROKEN OFF. THE PRIOR COMPLAINTS I HAVE FILED HAVE BEEN 10400898 AND 10280729. I AM REALLY DISGUSTED WITH HOW HYUNDAI IS TREATING THIS. HYUNDAI TELLS ME THAT IT HAPPENED BECAUSE OF THE COLD. 2 OF THE DOOR HANDLES FELL OFF IN WINTER MONTHS OF DECEMBER AND FEBRUARY. 2 FELL OFF IN THE SUMMER MONTHS OF JULY AND AUGUST. WHEN I MENTIONED THIS, THEY BACKTRACKED AND BLAMED ME FOR RIPPING THEM OFF... I AM A 150 LB, 47 YR OLD WOMAN. I DO EXERCISE, BUT I AM NOT A GORILLA! I'VE NEVER HAD ANY OTHER VEHICLE LOOSE A SINGLE DOOR HANDLE, LET ALONE 4 OF THEM! I AM UPSET THAT I AM BLAMED INSTEAD OF THEM LOOKING AND RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM! I AM NOT A CERTIFIED HYUNDAI TECHNICIAN, BUT I CAN SEE THAT EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM HAVE BROKEN IN THE EXACT SAME SPOT ON THE PLASTIC! IT HAS A LITTLE PIN IT RIDES ON AND THE PLASTIC BREAKS RIGHT THERE EACH AND EVERY TIME. I'VE SEEN IT. THE HYUNDAI TECHNICIAN SHOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO SEE IT ALSO. BUT THEY CLAIM IT IS NOT A PART OR VEHICLE PROBLEM. HYUNDAI CLAIMS THAT I HAVE BEEN TEARING THE HANDLES OFF IN SOME WAY! IF THAT IS TRUE, I SURE WISH I KNEW HOW I WAS DOING IT SO I COULD QUIT WRECKING MY CAR! IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY, SO THEY DON'T CARE NOR ARE THEY INTERESTED IN MAKING SURE IT DOESN'T HAPPEN TO ME (OR ANYONE ELSE!) AGAIN. TOO BAD, WE AREN'T REQUIRED TO DO ANYTHING NOW, SO GO AWAY IS THE RESPONSE THEY GAVE ME WHEN I SENT THEM A LETTER...DO NOT PURCHASE A HYUNDAI! *TR |
