Was driving to work in the rain/snow from wash, DC; notice unusual loud windshield wipers; suddenly notice that left windshield wiper was wiping off of the window as if were going to fly off..it distracted me to point of almost having a collision; called alexandria hyuandai from my job in frederick, md and was referred to ideal hyuandai where the srv rep diagnosed the vrh as having a defective w/S transmission...said it would take six wks, then two wks O get the part for this new SUV...I really don't feel safe, and want to return it!
