Consumer Description
I HAVE HAD THIS CAR A LITTLE OVER A YEAR NOW. IT HAS MADE THE SAME NOISE SINCE I'VE HAD IT. I'VE BEEN TO THE HUYNDA DEALER MANY TIMES. THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT'S WRONG. WHEN YOUR CAR IS BETWEEN 2000 RPM AND 3000 RPMS OR STEADILY AT 2000 IT MAKES A CONTINUOUS RADDLE NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE AND CONTINUES UNTIL YOU TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR. YOU WANT TO KNOW MY OPINION ABOUT THE [XXX] CAR? ANYONE WHO OWNS ONE SHOULD BE GIVEN A NEW ONE. BECAUSE THE CAR IS A PIECE OF CRAP. NOW I ALSO SAW A COMPLAINT ABOUT SOMEONE HAVING TO REPLACE THE COUPLER. I HAVE DOCUMENTATION THAT SHOWS I PAID THE HYUNDAI TO REPLACE MY STEERING COUPLER. IT WAS OVER 300 DOLLARS. WHEN YOUR DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE STEERING IS HARD TO CONTROL AND THE WHEEL MAKES A CLICKING NOISE. SO I TOOK IT IN AND THEY COUPLER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I WANT REIMBURSEMENT AND YOU GUYS SHOULD IMPLEMENT ANOTHER RECALL ABOUT REPLACING EVERYONE'S COUPLER. YOU GUYS SHOULD MAKE HYUNDAI GIVE EVERYONE A NEW CAR WHO HAS GONE THROUGH AL THE MESS WE HAVE. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
