| Description of the problem | This is concerning a 2004 hyundai tiburon gt. I have found this to be a very common problem with many 03-04 tiburons. In my case, the clutch and flywheel needed to be replaced at 49,450 (12/04/06) and 86,175 (4/21/09) miles. The cost for each repair is almost $2000. I bought this car because i could not afford a more costly car and now i have to pay these ridiculous charges for faulty parts. I don't understand why hyundai has not done anything about this epidemic of a problem.. |
