Consumer Description

FOR MORE THAN TWO YEARS I HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING TO MY DC-AREA HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP THAT MY CAR IS BURNING OR LEAKING OIL BUT THEY FAILED TO DIAGNOSE PROBLEM, APPARENTLY TO AVOID FIXING IT UNDER THE WARRANTY. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS FOR ME TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE BUT HYUNDAI WILL NOT HONOR ITS MUCH HYPED WARRANTY AND FIX MY CAR AND EVEN THE DISTRICT OFFICE INSISTS THAT I KEEP DRIVING IT FOR ITS THIRD AND *UNNECESSARY* OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. PREVIOUSLY MY ENGINE FAILED LEAVING ME STRANDED IN THE UTAH DESERT FOLLOWING WORK ON MY CAR BY TWO OTHER HYUNDAI DEALERS TO AVOID FIXING MY CAR BEFORE ITS FIRST WARRANTY PERIOD EXPIRED. HYUNDAI LIES ABOUT ITS WARRANTY: IT PROMISES THE WORLD ON TV ADS AND RENEGES IN PRIVATE.
