Description of the problem | My 2011 hyundai elantra is under hyundai recall 137. My vehicle has been at the dealership for regular service since 8/31/16. I mentioned the esc was malfunctioning and the service advisor indicated it would require diagnostics at an additional charge. They diagnosed the problem and estimated by phone the repair would be about $1,700 because the yaw sensor of the esc system had failed and damaged the steering column now needing replacement. I asked they request a goodwill repair since the car was just out of the 5 year bumper to bumber warranty and awaited notice. Meanwhile i reviewed the internet for the hyundai repair issues and found my car was on hyundai recall 137 for the esc system. I noted the dealers were supposed to be repairning this issue at no charge to customers under the recall. My dealer had not advised me my car was under recall nor made mention until i told the service manager. I am still without my car or a loaner as the dealer tries to get from hyundai usa an authorization to repair my car. |
