| Description of the problem | My 2006 hyundai sonata has two maybe more door handles that have either broken are in the process of breaking inside the door. I believe this is a manufacture/design defect and the responsibility of the manufacture to correct. Have made numerous contracts to the manufacture to resolve this issue and to there alternative dispute resolution party (bbb) they suggested and still have no resolution to the correction. I have the package emailable that was sent to the alternative dispute resolution party however they said the vehicle was to old to meet their arbitration conditions. |
