Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I recently found out that my hyundai elantra had been recalled for the windshield wiper washer motor, in 1997, i purchased the car in 1998, and in 2002 my motor blew up. i took it in and the service said that it wasn't covered and i would have to pay out of pocket to get it fixed! i recently found out that it was a recall so i took it in and they said that it had never been recalled - and i tried calling the hyundai hotline 800) 633-5151 and i pushed 5 to speak to someone about it and it hung up on me! n a 2 month time span all four of my interior door handles broke which i think should be recalled for being so thin and fragile anyway! if hyundai wants to make cars with warranties i think that they should honor them and fix the crappy cars that they make!*ak
