Consumer Description

I PURCHASED THE CAR IN MARCH 2011. INAPRIL,2011 THE FRONT BUMPER CAME OFF THE CLIP AND I HAVE TO REPLACE THE BUMPER AT COST OF $ 1000. SUBSEQUENTLY, THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE REQUIRING REPLACEMENT OF FRONT BUMPER. THE CAR IS DESIGNED WITH FRONT END VERY LOW AND THE BUMPER IS HOLD BY A SINGLE CLIP WHICH MAKES IT EASIER FOR IT TO COME OFF EVEN WHEN CAR IS BEING PARKED AND IF IT HITS PARKING CEMENT MARKER. HYUNDAI DEALER REFUSES TO FIX PROBLEM UNDER WARRANTY AND SO FAR I HAVE SPENT $3000. *TR
