Description of the problem	Started to back my vehicle out of the driveway and heard a loud grinding noise. Stopped, got out and inspected to find that the front right coil spring had snapped and punctured my tire. Vehicle is undrivable and had to be towed. There was absolutely no warning. I have read dozens of other complaints about this same thing happening on other 2005 hyundais. Hyundai really needs to look into this problem/defect. Thankfully, i was not driving at 55 mph on a highway as i'm sure serious injury/damage would have occurred.
