Example complaints
One per model year, chosen for length and detail. Personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
2002: “The windshield has began to crack from the lower right-hand corner (passenger's side) up about 16 in an s shaped pattern. There is -no- indication of a rock or other item hitting the windshield. I have been told by the dealership (fairfax hyundai, fairfax, va) that it is the result of a rock -but- there is -no_ impact crater to suggest this. When questioned about stress fractures I was told -those- occur from the inside-out and that this wasn't a stress fracture... I find that to be b.s.”
