| Description of the problem | While driving the vehicle, the air conditioning stopped working. I took it to the dealership and they told me that the blower relay had melted to the box it was in. As such, he was going to have to replace the entire wiring harness. He also indicated that had i not brought it in, the vehicle could catch fire while driving. I told him this is a safety issue and hyundai should take care of the bill. Hyundai said no and the bill is going to be $5,000. |
