Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2001 HYUNDAI SONATA I PURCHASED IN 2005 USED FROM A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP, AND DIDN'T HAVE A WARRANTY ON THE CAR. I TOOK IT IN TO MY LOCAL GARAGE IN JANUARY 2009 SO THEY COULD CHECK OUT A NOISE MY CAR IS MAKING. THEY SAID THAT WHEN THEY PUT IT UP ON THE LIFT, THEY SAW THAT MY CRADLE IS SEVERELY RUSTED AND THAT MY CAR WILL NOT PASS INSPECTION IN JUNE AND REPLACING IT WOULD BE ABOUT THE COST OF MY CAR. I HAVE RESEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND THAT MANY OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. HYUNDAI SHOULD HAVE MADE A RECALL SO I DON'T HAVE TO PURCHASE A NEW CAR RIGHT NOW. THANK YOU. *TR
