Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I own a 2004 hyundai tiburon gt v6 car. i am apart of an online car forum for my specific car. a number of my fellow tiburon owners and i have had the same problem. our factory clutches on manual cars have been breaking and not holding the horse power of the car. this is a major concern to me because, it happened to me while driving. this is a huge safety concern because i was not able to control my vehicle to the extent that i originally bought it. this clutch failure put me in risk of an accident and thank god nothing bad happened before it was brought in for a fix. i brought it into hyundai and they refused to fix the problem. after a week of warranty hell with lawyers and phone calls back and forth they finally fixed the problem. they said that they would never fix this again. they also did say that the clutch "prematurely slipped" (broke).*jb |
