1999 Hyundai
Accent GL
This car has been in the shop three
times since it was purchased in July of 2000. The problem has ALWAYS been
the Pulse Generators to the transmission, which are defective. Hyundai
replaced these twice already, but this time they will not honor their 10
year, 100,000 mile power train warranty because they say "Lack of
maintenance records." The district manager for Hyundai Service in the
Houston area is the one who made this decision, and Hyundai America will
not overturn this decision. We have maintenance records for this car and
the transmission fluid was changed with a 70,000 mile dependable
Name-Brand transmission fluid. One of their bases for not fixing the car
is because the transmission fluid was not changed every 30,000 mile as
RECOMMENDED. This point is moot because 1) The parts are defective from
the factory and 2) changing the transmission fluid has NOTHING to do with
the parts that keep going out!

Robinson The warranty sucks, dealership will not fix problem that was found 2 weeks
after purchase in 1999. Dealership waits till last to fix cars from
Hyundai, well known amongst Hyundai owners. Went through BBB they must
have been paid off. Found out recall on valves same model just different
date manufactured.
