Consumer Description

MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING MY HYUNDAI SONATA 1999 WITH 61000 MILES AND SUDDENLY THE CAR WAS COMPLETELY DISABLED. HE WAS PARKED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. WE CALL A TOW TRUCK AND TOOK THE CAR TO THE MECHANIC. THE MECHANIC SAID THAT HE NEVER EVER EVER SAW A FRAME WITH SO MUCH RUST AND CORROSION NOT EVEN CARS OLDER AND MUCH MILES THAN MINE. THE FRAME HAVE HOLES ALL OVER. WITH ALL THE EXTREME CORROSION AND RUST THE RIGHT SUB FRAME IS BROKEN IN HALF. THE MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT HE DOESN'T KNOW HOW ME AND MY CHILDREN DIDN'T HAVE AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE I'M THE ONE WHO DRIVES THAT CAR. AFTER THE MECHANIC SAW MY CAR WE CALLED ANOTHER TOW TRUCK AND WE SENT THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP. I'M WAITING FOR A RESPONSE FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND SEE IF HYUNDAI WILL TAKE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE DAMAGE THIS IS CAUSING ME BECAUSE I KNOW THAT CAR IS DEFECTED. IN THE MEANTIME I DON'T HAVE A CAR WHICH GIVES A LOT PROBLEMS TO ME AND MY FAMILY. *TR
