I recently found out that my hyundai elantra had been recalled for the windshield wiper washer motor, in 1997, I purchased the car in 1998, and in 2002 my motor blew up. I took it in and the service said that it wasn't covered and I would have to pay out of pocket to get it fixed! I recently found out that it was a recall so I took it in and they said that it had never been recalled - and I tried calling the hyundai hotline 800) 633-5151 and I pushed 5 to speak to someone about it and it hung up on me! N a 2 month time span all four of my interior door handles broke which I think should be recalled for being so thin and fragile anyway! If hyundai wants to make cars with warranties I think that they should honor them and fix the crappy cars that they make!

If there is any moisture on the outside of the driver's side window, it is not removed when window is rolled down and back up. Asked hyundai dealer to take a look at it shortly after I purchased it. They said there was nothing they could do and that it was a characteristic of the hyundai. I feel this is a safety issue.
