Consumer Description

I HAVE A 1999 HYUNDAI SONATA WHICH BROKE DOWN YESTERDAY DUE BADLY RUSTED HUGE HOLE ON THE FRONT RIGHT SIDE OF THE FRAME. THIS MADE THE VEHICLE DISABLED AND CAN NOT BE DRIVEN. THIS ALSO RESULTED IN THE DAMAGE TO THE WHEEL JOINTS THE MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT THE WHOLE FRONT FRAME HAD TO BE REPLACED. HE ALSO TOLD ME THAT THERE WOULD BE A LOT OF EXPENSE TO FIX THE CAR. I WAS READING ABOUT THE SIMILAR PROBLEMS FOR THE SONATA CARS THAT WERE MADE DURING THE 1999-2002 WERE HAVING SIMILAR PROBLEMS AND THE NHTSA WAS INVESTIGATING THE MATTER. PLEASE ADVICE ME THE FURTHER COURSES OF ACTION. *TR
