Consumer Description

I OWN A 2000 HYUNDAI SONATA. WHILE DRIVING MY CAR AT ABOUT 20-30 MPH MY SUB-FRAME COLLAPSED WHICH CAUSED MY FRONT DRIVERS SIDE TIRE TO COME COMPLETELY OFF. WHEN THE SUBFRAME COLLAPSED IT FELL ON MY AXLE WHICH DAMAGED. WHILE THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE SUBFRAME MY AXLE WAS NOT COVERED EVEN THOUGHT THE SUBFRAME COLLAPSING IS A DIRECT RESULT OF MY TIRE AND AXLE DETACHING FROM MY CAR. AFTER VOICING MY CONCERN HYUNDAI STATED TO ME THAT THEY DO NOT COVER SUBSEQUENTLY DAMAGE AND THAT WAS NOTHING ELSE TO BE SAID OR DONE. THIS TO ME IS A BUNCH OF CRAP! IF THE SUBFRAME WAS NOT DEFECTIVE I WOULD OF NEVER ENDURED THESE PROBLEMS WITH MY VEHICLE. I HAVE NOT HAD ANY MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR UNTIL NOW. I HAVE CONTACTED HYUNDAI'S CONSUMER RELATIONS AND THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING NO ONE IS TAKING RESPONSIBILITY. I WILL CONTACT MY ATTORNEY GENERAL ABOUT THIS. THIS IS NOT FAIR! THANK GOD I WAS NOT SERIOUSLY HURT BECAUSE I WOULD HAVE BEEN ON MY OWN. AS THEY SAID THEY DO NOT COVER SUBSEQUENTLY DAMAGES. *TR
