| Description of the problem | I have 2006 hyundai tiburon and at 9440 miles i started having clutch problems and was told that this is normal and now the car is not even a year old and has 17000 miles on it and it is in the shop to get a new clutch witch is about 900. 00 dollars. This seems to be something that is happening a lot. The warranty is 5 years bumper to bumper. Or the clutch is 12000 miles but i see why they just brushed me off at 9440 miles so the could get the money in 2500 more miles. *jb |
