AFTER RECENTLY PURCHASING A USED 2001 HYUNDAI SONATA, I NOTICED AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF RUST / CORROSION ON THE ENGINE CRADLE AND SUB - FRAME. VEHICLE HAS ONLY 74000 MILES ON IT BUT DOES NOT APPEAR AS IF IT WILL LAST MUCH LONGER. I AM ABLE TO POKE MY FINGERS THROUGH THE METAL AND PIECES FALL OUT OF THE STEEL ASSEMBLY. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY 2001 HYUNDAI SONATA A CAR I BOUGHT NEW IN FLORIDA AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN IN FLORIDA. MY ENGINE CARRIAGE RUSTED THROUGH AND SNAPPED THE CONTROL ARM ON MY CAR AND THE ENTIRE WHEEL CAME OFF SENDING ME INTO TWO LANES OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC. IT WAS TAKEN TO HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP I AM WAITING TO HEAR IF HYUNDAI WILL REPAIR THE HUGE DAMAGE TO MY CAR. NOT TO MENTION I WAS ALMOST KILLED DUE TO THIS CATASTROPHIC FAILURE. THE NHTSA NEEDS TO TAKE ACTION ON THIS NOW. LIVES ARE AT RISK. IT IS A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE. *TR

MY 2001 HYUNDAI SONATA'S SUBFRAME RUSTED TO THE POINT OF WHERE THERE WERE 7 IN" HOLES COMPLETELY THROUGH- THIS CAUSED THE LOWER SWING ARM TO DETACH FROM THE FRAME AND SUBSEQUENTLY THE VEHICLE SUSPENSION FAILED. THIS OCCURRED WHILE MY TWO CHILDREN WERE IN THE CAR. BOTH FRONT TIRES WERE DAMAGED. DEALER DID NOT REPLACE TIRES, DID NOT PAY FOR TOWING OR ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION- GARY ROME HYUNDAI, HOLYOKE MA. *TR
