| Description of the problem | Stop lamp switch replacement. On 01/14/17 i had an appointment at plaza hyundai located at 2700 nostrand ave, brooklyn ny 11210 to replace my stop lamp switch. They did not have the part in stock at that time. The part was ordered on 01/14/2017 and as of this writing (02/17/2017) they have not received the part and have no estimated time or arrival on the part. No one even notified me that the campaign was not completed. I had to come back in the following day 01/15/2017 because my break lights were not turning off. At that time they attempted to charge me for a diagnostic, but i advised the manager that i was there less than 24 hours ago to address the stop lamp switch, which may have been causing the issue. They told me at that time that the part was still on order. They refuse to give me an eta. I called hyundai's corporate office, and they could not get an answer from plaza auto either. This is a serious recall as it effects my ability to signal that i'm breaking. I will attempt to go to another service department or remedy myself, but i think that this is unacceptable. |
