THEN THE 19TH. THEN I WAS TOLD THE PARTS WOULD ARRIVE IN A COUPLE OF DAYS AND DID I WANT TO LEAVE THE CAR THERE. I DECLINED. ON JUNE 22, I CALLED THE PARTS DEPARTMENT AND WAS TOLD THE PARTS WOULD ARRIVE IN THE MIDDLE OF JULY. I CALLED AT THAT TIME AND I WAS TOLD IT WOULD BE THE END OF JULY.

DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 56-57 MPH DOWN A STATE ROUTE RD WHEN THE HOOD CAME UNLATCHED AND FLEW UP AND SHATTERED THE WINDSHIELD AND BREAKING THE HOODS HYDRAULIC LIFT ARM. I FOUND OUT THE HOOD LATCH WAS RECALLED BY HYUNDAI PRIOR TO THIS HAPPENING AND WE DIDN'T KNOW. HYUNDAI WAS CONTACTED AND THEY ARE REFUSING TO ASSIST WITH GETTING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND TELLING US THAT THEY ARE ONLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE HOOD LATCH AND NOT THE OTHER DAMAGE THAT WAS CAUSED BY THE HOOD LATCH FAILING WHILE DRIVING.

WE PURCHASED OUR 2007 HYUNDAI ENTOURAGE IN 2015 AND 2 MONTHS AFTER WE BOUGHT IT BOTH DOORS MOTORS STOPPED WORKING. THE DRIVER SIDE PASSENGER DOOR WILL ONLY OPEN ABOUT 10 TO 15 INCHES. WE'VE HAD TO USE THE HANDLES TO OPEN BOTH DOOR AND THE HANDLES BROKE. I CAN ONLY ASSUME THAT THEY BROKE BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT MADE TO BE USED SINCE THE DOORS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE USED WITH A REMOTE AND ARE MOTORIZED. WE'VE ALSO HAD TO REPLACE OUR HEAD LIGHTS AND BACK LIGHTS ABOUT 6 TO 8 TIMES THAT'S MORE THAN I'VE CHANGED ANY LHEAD LIGHTS ON ALL MY VEHICLES IN MY ENTIRE 44 YEARS OF OWNING CARS. THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD 6 RECALLS SINCE WE PURCHASED IT IN 2015. PLEASE JUST RECALL AND REPLACE THE WHOLE VEHICLE TO MAKE UP FOR HOW POORLY THIS VEHICLE WAS MADE AND THROWN TOGETHER. TY *TR

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING WITH CHILDREN IN THE CAR AND RIGHT HAND SIDE SUSPENSION CONTROL ARM SNAPPED IN HALF. CAR WAS ABLE TO BE DRIVEN HOME BUT WHEEL WAS PUSHED UP AGAINST THE WHEEL WELL.

THE SPARE TIRE ASSEMBLY WAS SO RUSTED THAT YOU COULDN'T REMOVE THE SPARE DONUT. THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE REGULAR TIRE HAD A SMALL NAIL IN IT RESULTING IN SOME AIR LOSS. SO TOWN FAIR TIRE IN TEWKSBURY MA AGREED TO PLUG THE TIRE BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT REMOVE THE SPARE TIRE DO TO HEAVY RUST IN WHICH THEY ALSO SAID THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM TO THIS MODEL VEHICLE. ALSO I AGREED WITH TOWN FAIR TIRE THAT I WOULD GET IT UP TO MY DEALERSHIP: JD BY RIDER UP IN MANCHESTER NH ASAP FOR EXTRA SERVICES. JD BY RIDER SENT MY VEHICLE TO TOWN FAIR TIRE IN MANCHESTER NH & T.F.T. ALSO RECOMMENDED A BRAND NEW FACTORY SPARE TIRE ASSEMBLY. I ENDED UP HAVING TO BUY 4 BRAND NEW REPLACEMENT GENERAL GRABBER TIRES P75-65R-16 TIRES. ALSO JD BY RIDER HAD TO BUY ANOTHER SPARE DONUT TIRE FOR PUTTING IT IN THE WAY BACK OF MY VEHICLE. THE ORIGINAL SPARE TIRE IS STILL FROZEN UNDERNEATH THE PASSENGER REAR OF MY VEHICLE. I HAD TO DRIVE TO TOWN FAIR TIRE THINKING THAT THE FRONT TIRE JUST NEEDED SOME AIR PUT IN IT BUT TFT TOOK IT OFF THE RIM & DISCOVERED THE NAIL IN IT RIGHT NEAR ANOTHER PLUG. THAT WAS WHY THEY WERE HESITANT ON PUTTING IN THE NEW PLUG.
