Consumer Description
OUR CAR HAS BEEN INTERMITTENTLY NOT STARTING AND RATTLING. WE IT TOOK TO A HYUNDAI DEALER THREE TIMES IN 9 MONTHS AND PAID OVER $600 BUT EACH TIME THE PROBLEM CONTINUED. FINALLY THE MECHANIC DRAINED THE OIL AND TOOK A MAGNET TO IT. METAL FRAGMENTS WERE PULLED OUT. THE MECHANIC SAID THE CAR NEEDED A NEW ENGINE AS THE RESULT OF A MANUFACTURER DEFECT-SAME AS THE SONATAS THAT HAVE BEEN RECALLED. WE CALLED HYUNDAI TO REPORT THE PROBLEM. THEY SAID SINCE THE CAR IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY THERE IS NOTHING THEY ARE ABLE TO DO.
