Description of the problem	I purchased my vehicle in july and it was in absolutely wonderful condition mechanically and physically. It had routine maintenance per the carfax report and meticulous care by its previous owner, with mostly "highway" mileage and new tires. After a little over a month of ownership, i lifted the rear window and first one latch snapped due to corosion, followed by the second and the window i caught luckily in my hands! Thank goodness i was not driving on the highway and this would have happened, possibly causing a shattered window and dangerous conditions on the roadway! I was quoted $70 per latch for a replacement by the local hyundai dealer plus installation costs. I have had hatchback vehicles before and have never had this happen regardless of the car's age, and especially from one taken care of so unbelievably well by its only owner. Since this occurred i have heard of other instances of this with hyundai tucsons and that they are readily kept in stock-which causes me to believe this a common occurrence and poor design.
