Consumer Description

I HAVE A 1999 HYUNDAI SONATA, AND I STARTED TO EXPERIENCE A WHEEL-BEARING PROBLEM ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. WHEN I TOOK THE CAR TO MY MECHANIC FOR A WHEEL BEARING I WAS TOLD THAT THE ENGINE CRADLE HAD RUSTED COMPLETELY THAT IT COLLAPSED THE LOWER PASSENGER SIDE "A FRAME. THE CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND THE DEALER WANT $ 1700 TO REPLACE THE ENGINE CRADLE. THIS IS PURELY UNACCEPTABLE FOR 1999 CAR LITERALLY FALLS APART. THE CONSUMERS OF THIS BRAND WERE SHORTCHANGED. A CAR STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY SHOULD LAST LONGER THAN 8 YEARS. WE NEED YOUR HELP TO GET HYUNDAI MOTORCARS TO ISSUE A RECALL BEFORE SERIOUS INJURIES OCCUR AND TO COMPENSATE THOSE HARD WORKING FOLKS THAT HAVE LOST USE OF THEIR CARS. *TR
