problem #1

Nov 012007

Elantra 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 4,000 miles
Driving on 495 Washington beltway, heard a loud noise, I thought something had hit the car I look all around and saw the sunroof had exploded. There was no sign that something had hit the sunroof. It looked like it was pushed up from the inside. I took it to the dealer and they said this had never happen before and the Hyundai rep said it couldn't happen by itself and refuse to cover the damage under warranty. The cost was almost $1000.
