Consumer Description

WINDSHIELD IS DEFECTIVE IN SEVERAL AREAS OF THE WINDSHIELD. VIEW IS DISTORTED THROUGH THESE SECTIONS OF THE WINDSHIELD, ESPECIALLY THE LOWER 1/3 AREA AND AREAS NEAR THE POSTS. PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED OF CAR SICKNESS LOOKING THROUGH THE GLASS. THE PASSENGER SEAT IS LOWER THAN THE DRIVER'S SEAT AND MY WIFE HAS LOOKED THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD AND THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO CRASH OR AT LEAST GO OFF THE ROAD. THE DEALER REPLACED THE ORIGINAL BUT THE REPLACEMENT GLASS IS WORSE. ALL THE SONATA'S ON THEIR LOT ARE AS BAD OR WORSE. IT APPEARS HYUNDAI'S SUPPLIER OF WINDSHIELDS IS MANUFACTURING DISTORTED WINDSHIELDS. IT APPEARS ALL SONATA'S ARE BEING MANUFACTURED WITH THIS DISTORTED GLASS IN THE WINDSHIELDS. THERE IS DISTORTION LOOKING OUT THE REAR GLASS THROUGH THE REAR VIEW MIRROR BUT WE CAN LIVE WITH THAT.
