Consumer Description

ON 12/2016 MY PASSENGER EXTERIOR DOOR HANDLE BROKE WHILE LOADING MY VEHICLE AT SAMS CLUB. ON 11/2017 MY DRIVER SIDE EXTERIOR DOOR HANDLE BROKE AS I WAS GETTING IT FOR WORK. THIS MEANT I NEEDED TO CLIMB INTO THE DRIVER'S SEAT FROM THE BACK OF THE CAR. I DID GET IT FIX PAYING $170 FOR THE DRIVERS SIDE AND ALSO A RENTAL CAR. I STILL NEED TO FIX THE PASSENGER SIDE. HYUNDAI NEEDS TO RECALL THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE EMS WILL NOT BE ABLE TO GET INTO MY CAR THUS MAKING THE BROKEN HANDLES A SAFETY ISSUE.
