Description of the problem	I am a tiburon owner and one of the many who have forked over my own cash to replace what should have been covered under warranty. I purchased my car in april 2005 new. It is the 2005 tiburon gt v6 2. 7 liter 5 speed manual. I know the lawsuit states that the lawsuit is for the 2003 6 speeds but needless to say if you go to www. Newtiburon. Com (an internet gathering place for all tib owners) that v6 tiburons from 2003 to 2005 have had clutch problems. Not every single one, but i would say the majority. At or around 10,000 miles into owning my first ever "brand new" car i noticed slow acceleration and the clutch felt loose. This was around late august or early september 2005. I immediately took it to the dealership remembering that i had "america's best warranty" and had them look at it. I was called three days later (while i was paying for a rental car to get to and from) and asked to come in to the hyundai dealership where i purchased my vehicle. Upon arrival the service manager escorted me into the repair area where i saw my car in pieces and i was shown the clutch and flywheel. I was told "we have never seen a clutch this bad" and i had obviously abused my car. I explained i have driven stick cars for over 200,000 miles in my life and only once had a new clutch installed. These guys seemed like a pack of wolves in their approach which had obviously been done to other tiburon owners. They said, "well, we can fix it but it's going to be $2,100, including labor." i was told abuse isn't covered; sorry. I knew at this point i had been had and there was nothing i could do about it. I went ahead and placed the charge on my emergency credit card and they proceeded with the new parts and installation. As you may or may not know the tiburon transmissions were produced in bulk and even though my car was a 2005 i can guarantee you that some parts could possibly be from 2003 including the frame, the clutch, and other "bulk made" parts. *jb
