Description of the problem | While driving in rain and high humidity, going south on route 95, a/c cooling stopped working and only warm air was blowing through the vents. Stopped working for over an hour, until i stopped for gas in ft. Piece. When i restarted, it began to work and worked for another 20 minutes before it stopped. I brought it to the dealer on june 3. Dealer said he could not reproduce the problem and would do nothing. It happened again on june 13 while driving. I went back to the dealer and he again said he could not reproduce it and would do nothing. I reported it hyundai would said it could not be reproduced and would do nothing. I found numerous instances, on the internet, of people reporting this problem, but was told unless i could reproduce on my vehicle, nothing would be done. I have to wait for it to happen again and hope the car dealer is open. |
