| Description of the problem | The hard plastic undercarriage panel fell down to the pavement in the front where it was attached close to the engine but remained attached at the rear of the car. So it was scrapping the pavement as the car was moving on an expressway going 60 mph at the time. It was lucky for me that it did not break off and hit some other motorist. The bolts that attach it to the car failed. I read hyundai forums where this has happened to other azera owners. Took it to the dealer and had a new undercarriage panel installed. |
