Description of the problem	Have been having issues with the suspension on my car. Mavis was performing a brake repair when they suggested suspension work because of the front coil springs. I looked up the issue afterwards and found recall 133 on the 2011 hyundai sonata. However, hyundai only covers 2011 sonatas made between december 09 and february 10, mine was manufactured in oct 10. They are saying my car is not eligible for coverage under this recall, despite the fact that my car has been diagnosed to have an issue which they have already acknowledged is an issue for this exact make and model of this vehicle. No severe damage has been done yet, but it has begun to have ripple effects, as my tires have worn significantly over the last few months, no doubt due to a misalignment caused by the front coil issues. This issue is covered under a recall that hyundai put out for the exact same year and model, but yet they claim my car is not eligible due to the manufacturer date. While this has yet to cause any serious issues, the fact that these coils could puncture my tire at any moment is scary. The fact that they know this exists and refuse to cover it is scarier.
