Description of the problem	Experienced issue with my hyundai sonata 2011 not starting and heard a clicking noise. Towed vehicle to local hyundai dealership (where purchased). Service report on april 21,2015 indicated starter fork had failed. Cost of labor was $112. 50 and plastic fork $8. 13. Plus towing cost this is needs to be investigated for root cause and corrective actions. Per service department this was not covered under drivetrain warranty. This part should not be failing after only 77,213 miles. The long term reliability of this vehicle is a concern with rising and mounting labor cost. How long will this fork last? How did this part pass the hyundai development and product validation automotive testing? Or is this a manufacturing defect issue after release ? This is another known issue that is being reported by sonata 2011 owners and not being addressed it is poor when the towing service person knew what the issue was. As he has towed several sonatas with same issue.
