| Description of the problem | We have a new hyundai genesis which has a factory defect causing a water leak and resulting in mold issues. Our family of 6 has had many health related issues since owning this car and mold testing has shown toxic mold. This has been an unknown issue with the vehicle since purchased new in february 2014 and discovered in april 2016. It affects the trunk and back seat. We are looking for resolution from the manufacturer who has been entirely unresponsive. A video and pictures of the mold is online on youtube at the link provided below. Any recommendation would be greatly appreciated. Https://www. Youtube. Com/channel/ucyeqjlokkytegl_rdbqo7wg |
