| Description of the problem | On february 22, 2019 at 6:51pm i went to my car to retrieve some personal belongings and noticed that my sunroof had completely shattered. By the grace of god i was not driving my car nor did i have any children in the car. Hyundai has had my car sense this incident occurred and are saying that they are not going to be paying for the sunroof to be fixed. This is just absolutely ridiculous on their end. This is peoples lives that are at state while in this car. Upon further investigation i have found over 8 complaints about the same thing with the sunroof and even an article where a family had the sunroof shatter on them as well and hyundai just settled out of court with them on january 21,2019. Hyundai should be responsible for any damages like these and all car dealerships need to take these cars off their property. Someone could be severly hurt or even die due to things like this. None of this okay. I do not feel safe getting back into this car even if the sunroof was fixed. |
