Since the purchase of my car new i have had the transmission replaced three times, the pulse generator replaced twice, and the electrical wiring replaced twice because it kept buring out. i would repeatedly take my car into fairfax hyundai for service due to slipping transmission, car cutting off and steering locking up while driving on the beltway at 65mph smoke coming out of the exhaust etc. finally on 17 march 1999, approxiamately 4 weeks after paying 350 dollars to have my engine cleaned (recommended by service manager) my engine blew at 15 mph. oil was spurting out everywhere and the dealership has refused to give the the hyundai complainant line number. the customer service rep. stated that i would have to get that number from the service manager at the dealership where i purchased the car.. the service manager tommy has refused to give me the number but states that he is willing to work out a reasonable rate for parts a labor. granted i have 78,000 miles on a 97' however these are all highway miles 167 miles roundtrip to work. all scheduled maintanence was done. i do not think nor feel that i should have to be saddled with this lemon any longer nor should i have to pay for any repairs since the car has been going back for major engine problems since 6/97 three months after purchase. *ak | |||
