| Description of the problem | Went to start the car all it did was go click. Tried different key fob, it started, replace both batteries in key fobs. Next week, wouldn't start, let it set for a bit, it started, week later on a saturday tried would not start, called hyundai 24 hr road service, they had trouble starting it. Next morning it started, 6 hrs later it wouldn't start, moved the shift lever from park to drive back to park like the road service guy did, it started. It started the next morning monday 6/22/15 took it to the dealer, said they couldn't find anything wrong, even though the battery shows a charge of 10 volts. I have a print out from pep boys showing that the battery needs replaced soon as it may not start a car. Which they were right. Hyundai corp. Could care less about me or my car, what i think, they sold a car is all they care about. Between me and my two sons we have purchased over the years 8 hyundai vehicles. Because what they are doing, or should i say not doing for me there dad, no more hyundai cars, hyundai does not stand by there cars, warrany their products. I'm asking if they will buy the car back, guess what no word from them, ms tiger the rep was to call me never herd a word from her. More of their we don't care about the owners of hyundai sonata cars. |
