GLASS AND VISIBILITY PROBLEM: IN FEB. 2012 THE LARGE BACK GLASS (HORIZONTAL GLASS IN THE BACK DOOR) IN THE CAR BROKE WITHOUT ANY APPARENT REASON. TEMPERATURE WAS NORMAL AT THE TIME AND NO OUTSIDE OBJECT WAS FOUND IN THE CAR. IT WAS A DANGEROUS SITUATION AND VERY EXPENSIVE FIX. HYUNDAI COMPANY DID NOT COVER THE REPAIR COST UNDER WARRANTY. ELECTRICAL PROBLEM: FROM JUNE 2012 TOO PRESENT, THERE IS ERROR MESSAGE POPPING OUT THAT BLUELINK IS ACTIVE BUT NOT REGISTERED. AFTER ALMOST 4 MONTHS OF CONTACTING THE CUSTOMER SERVICE AND DEALER SHIP THE…

Owner report 10817768 · 2016-01-05 (January 5, 2016)
DEALER SAYS THEY CAN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. VEHICLE HAS INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS STARTING. WHEN TURNING KEY IN IGNITION, USUALLY IN COLDER WEATHER IN THE MORNINGS, VEHICLE WILL NOT START. THERE IS JUST A 1-CLICK SOUND PER IGNITION CYCLE, BUT NO IGNITION OCCURS. ALL LIGHTS COME ON DASH, RADIO TURNS ON, ETC. REPLACED BATTERY DUE TO FAILED BATTERY TEST, BUT THIS DID NOT FIX THE STARTER PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THE STARTER ASSEMBLY IS STARTING TO FAIL BUT THE DEALER HAS BEEN VERY UNHELPFUL. I DRIVE A LOT FOR WORK, ESPECIALLY TO REMOTE AREAS, AND I'M GOING…
