“My Hyundai Elantra has many defects, and had been to the dealer where purchased. They claimed nothing was wrong, and they wouldn't warranty any of these problems. Another problem I faced was less then a month after the car was purchased the battery failed and that was not under warranty. So I had to replace it at my cost. The door handles in the summer get hot and melt and fall off, I've had to replaced all door handles in the interior, said this was not under warranty. My A/C knobs keep falling off and breaking, and this is also not under warranty, so at my cost they have been replaced twice. …”
