Description of the problem	Vehicle was overheating. Took to dealership and was told the wires were melting together and the wiring harness needed to be replaced. After replacing the wiring harness it was one problem after the next that the dealership contributed to the overheating. 3 turbo's replaced, the front and rear wiring harness, the computer control module, some tubes and hoses and 6 mos later.... The car seems to be running again but now there is a recall on the transmission... Ugh. I tried to have hyundai let me out of the lease since i only had a few months left. Consumer affairs passed the buck to hyundai lease and vice versa. It is a nightmare to work with this corporation. Filed a complaint with the bbb and was able to get reimbursed for two payments since they had my car in for repair for over 60 days but they would not let me out of the lease. Will never have a hyundai again because of hyundai motor america and the way they pass the buck, will not take responsibility, and take care of their customers. They are a horrible corporation.
