Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Purchased 2011 santa fe w/ 29000 miles on 5/15/2015. Noted excessive rust on rear suspension and frame components, particularly at weld joints and on suspension members - to the extent that i am concerned about vehicle safety. Had vehicle inspected at twin city hyundai in knoxville and received evasive answer about how it was a new york car and that the level of corrosion was basically to be expected. No offer to conduct any repair work. Vehicle is in warranty and has been meticulously cared for in all respects (interior, engine bay, and other body work is excellent). I grew up in colorado and have never seen corrosion this extensive on any vehicle and do not find the dealer response acceptable. Corrosion resistance preparation during manufacture appears to be inadequate.
