| Description of the problem | I was pulling out from a stop sign and my rear sub frame snapped, i contacted the dealer with whom i still making payments with only to be told the mechanic can look at it on wed 7/19 , the have made no offer to fix this at no cost which i believe is wrong due to this is a safety issue and not caused by anything i have done. I will upload a copy of the estimate as soon as i get it. I believe the dealer i am dealing with is only in it for the money and does not car about the safety of the vechicles sold. I do know as i talked to my mechanic that this is a big safety risk and that hyundia should recall vechicles in the "salt belt states". |
