Description of the problem	A/c has had a problem since i bought it. I have had the compressor replaced, because the "mechanic" turned the bolt the wrong way and wrung it off, i had to replace. Hyundai would not accept responsibility, even though it was their mechanic. This repair did not fix the problem, as it still happens now, 8 years later. It will cool good, then the compressor will out and not come back on for about 5 minutes. Hyundai says this it not problem with their parts or procedures. Finally got tired of their lies and failure to try to locate the problem. This is my only and last hyundai, there has to be a better backed car company in this world.
