| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I have a 2005 hyundai tiburon with less that 20000 miles on it, i took the car to the dealer ( rick case hyundai) on weston, florida because the gears when i shift are not working properly, i left the car in the dealer and i receive a call from rick case stating that i have to authorized the 5 hours that will take to diagnostic what was wrong with the car, i told then that this car come with 5 years / 60,000 bumper to bumper miles warranty and i didn't think i was liable for any cost. the dealer when further to say that most likely cause of damage was the clutch on the car and that was not cover under the warranty, i did sign the paper as to the 5 hours to inspect the vehicle at $95.00 per hours which is ridiculous to me that it will take 5 hours to know what's wrong with the car, i further when in to different website on the internet to find about hyundai warranty and if other people had same problems, i was shocked to found that so many people had the same problem with this particular car (tiburon) and that every time hyundai has put the blame on owners stating that they don't know how to drive stick shift, there is even a class action suit in california for the 2003 tiburon after some lawyers have found that hyundai have know in the past that this problem is cause by poor quality parts and that they have make owners like me to pay around $2000.00 for repairs in cars that is supposed to be cover by warranty, hyundai is misleading the public with all those ads about american best warranty, i do believe that you as part of my government should investigate and bring this company to the same standard as to american car manufacture, as of myself i will make sure that everyone knows how this company treat customer and how they lie as to the warranty. *nm |
