“Three engine's have been replaced in my vehicle. After the last engine replacement several bolts have fallen out of the engine support bracket. Several other bolts ate loose or ready to fall out. Nothing has been done yet. I have filed a case with the bbb.”
NHTSA complaint #10212510, filed 2007-12, 40,061 miles“I bought my 2004 Tiburon in july of that year, and had to get rid of it (even rolled the loan money over), in 2006, I hated it so much. The paint chipped off all over the car, the seat color was wearing off, the dashboard color wore off, the lights on the radio went out. Of course not one of the issues were covered under the great warranty the offer. My sister got the same car, she had her automatic/manual shifter go, her tires were completely bare after 2 years, her gas cap paint came over, down to the metal. This was the worst car ever made.”
