Description of the problem | Two issues: (1) i purchased the vehicle on may 26, 2013. I found out that the gov. Had issued a recall for the elantra models built from 11-12-2010 through 3-5-2013. My car was assembled on feb, 22, 2013. I was never told about this at time of purchase and have never received any notification from hyundai motor america. The dealers are not responsive. (2) the "auto-dimming rearview mirror with homelink & compass" rarely functions. Real problem is that mirror image and headlights are same intensity/ clarity whether unit is turned on or off--very dangerous at night. The dealer i purchased car from and another dealer refused to investigate. |
