Consumer Description

PANORAMIC ROOF WIND DEFLECTOR TORE WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. DEBRIS SCATTERED ON HIGHWAY AND NEARLY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT BEHIND OUR VEHICLE AS OTHERS ATTEMPTED TO AVOID IT. WE WERE ABLE TO CLOSE THE UNIT WHILE HOLDING ALL OF THE COMPONENTS DOWN IN THE TRACK/HOUSING. A HYUNDAI TECHNICIAN REPORTED THE ISSUE WAS A WEAR AND TEAR ITEM AND WE'D BE CHARGED $1200 TO REPAIR IT. LOOKING AT PREVIOUS RECALLS, OUR VEHICLE SEEMS TO BE AFFECTED ALTHOUGH OUR SPECIFIC VIN DOESN'T SHOW THIS AS A DOCUMENTED ISSUE. ADDITIONALLY, NOW THE GLASS 'CHATTERS' WHILE DRIVING.
