| Description of the problem | At 8,000 miles the check engine light came on. Took it into the dealer and they said the gas canister overflow was full causing the check engine light to come on. They replaced the gas canister and filter under warranty. At 14,000 the check engine light came on - took it to the dealer - they said i had overflowed the gas on fillup, and i had to pay $800-900 to get it fixed. I never top off the tank. It sounds like a defect to me, and i cannot afford $900 every 10 tankfuls or so. Hyundai customer service is looking into it asked them to fix the defect - or take the car back - waiting to hear |
