| For the pc system problem, i had noticed that the pc valve was leaking oil around it, so i replaced the component on may 12,2000. by december, i noticed that the car had some sort of problem with a noted drop in performance and fuel economy. so i decided, before bringing the car in for maintenance, to visually check the fluids, and wear components. i ended up finding sludge in the engine, created by water in the oil. when dodge/hyundai of paramus checked-out the car they told me the problem was a clogged pc system and it was not covered by any warrany, so i paid for the work. for the transmission problem i noticed that it was leaking, and when the dealer in paramus checked-out the problem, they told me that someone had over-torqued the oil pan, blowing out the gasket. they told me that the problem should be warranteed by altman in n.charleston, since they did the 30k check-up. when i informed altman, they told me that paramus should have done the work as warranteed. so, mike at altman told me i would receive a refund, but i never did, and mike doen't work there anymore, and no one else knows anything. i talked to hyun. motor amer. cust. service, and i am currently waiting for a call back. what i want to know is if either of these is covered by warranty, and if so what then? | |||

| Car stalls, runs rough when coming to a stop. i bought it from the dealer on 9/17/99 for $8,068.96 including finance charges. it had 45,490 miles. now it has 68,841 miles. the dealer said it would cost $1,600 to repair the transmission problem. when i asked about trading it in, they told me the value of the car is only $2,000. how did it depreciate so much in one year? is there a recall on this car? is the dealer required to repair the transmission up to 100,000 miles regardless of whether i bought the extended warranty?*ak | |||
