Consumer Description

MY CAR WAS PARK AT MY WORK PARKING LOT AND IT WAS AROUND 37 DEGREES F OUTSIDE. I WENT TO MY CAR TO GET SOMETHING OUT OF MY TRUNK. WHEN I CLOSED MY TRUNK I HEARD A SPLASH AFTER THE TRUNK CLOSED. I THOUGHT I SPLASHED SOME WATER, BUT I THEN SAW AND REALIZED THAT SOMETHING WAS NOT RIGHT ON MY ROOF. I TOOK A CLOSER LOOK AND SAW THAT MY SUNROOF HAD BLOWN UP. GLASS DEBRIS WAS EVERYWHERE ESPECIALLY ON MY WINDSHIELD. I DROVE IT HOME THAT NIGHT AND BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT IT AND THEY WENT AHEAD AND GAVE ME A RENTAL CAR RIGHT AWAY. I ASKED THEM FOR THE BEST OFFER FOR A NEW CAR BUT THEY JUST WANTED TO SELL ME A NEW CAR. I DON'T TRUST THE HYUNDAI BRAND ANYMORE AND IM HOPING IN TRADING IT IN FOR A DIFFERENT CAR. *TR..UPDATED 12/31/12 *BF PICTURES RECEIVED. 01/03/13
