Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 2003 tiburon v6 5 speed with 34,000 miles. clutch is completely burnt out and hyundai says it is normal wear and tear...absolutely not true , especially from the hundreds and hundreds of complaints i've seen. i was just told by a mechanic (not at hyundai shop--they were too expensive) that the flywheel has a faulty component, and that if i put a new clutch in, it will eat that one too. this is going to cost me min. $1500. hyundai needs to admit they have a problem and fix it. its too late for me, i'll never own another hyundai, but we need to be reimbursed and the cars need recalled immediately. *nm
