2003 Hyundai Tiburon SE review from North America
"Looks good and that's all"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My Tiburon was broken into at 200 km. there was $3000.00 damage. ICBC covered.
The plastic trim on the roof came down, which was placed under warranty.
At about 2000 km the car wouldn't start, if I got it started my windows would not work and my lights would not turn off with the keys out of ignition and switch off. Being under warranty they replaced my control sensor panel, thinking this was the problem.
A week later the car still wouldn't
start, they replaced all ignition sensors, after being back and forth with my car, because they didn't know what could be wrong. they also gave me 1 new key with a new sensor.
I have had shifting problems with my car which have not been resolved.
The car is also not starting every time either, again!
General comments?
I have not heard of any other people having problems with their 2003 Tiburon's. Trust me I've searched, I just want to let people know what could go wrong and that it may take the dealership forever to fix the problem because they don't know how!
