| Description of the problem | Both of my visors have never stayed up, they are always down in my line of vision this probably started 6 months after i had the car. I took it to the dealer they stated it was not covered. A few years back the drivers side air bag light came on and is still on. The passengers air bag comes on and goes off regularly. My back break lights have had to be replaces several times, something is wrong with them. Again the dealer wanted to charge me to replace them after my husband had just replaced them. There are so many parts that are falling apart. The gear shift has broken and the back handles on the outside of the car are broken. My brakes rotate and the whole care shakes when i press on the breaks on the freeway. Now my back end is making noises. I bought this car new , but will never buy another car from hyundai again, this is the worst car i have ever had. From the beginning i have had problems and the dealer never wanted to fix anything unless i payed for it. I am not paying for things that i did not break. . |
