Sonata 4-cyl

  • 93,678 miles
My 2008 Hyundai Sonata was parked in my driveway on November 24, 2013 at around 11 am. I opened my trunk with the remote key and the trunk opened up so fast, the hinge tops on both sides that support and guide the trunk lid broke off at the top. Just disintegrated. These are defectively manufactured plastic caps/covers on the two hydraulic hinges.
