2005 Hyundai Tiburon GT review from North America
"A fraud made by Hyundai"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I got a problem with clutch, took the car to the dealer and they request authorization from me to inspect the car at $95.00 per hours and will take 5 hours of work to tell me that the clutch has gone bad and was my fault because poor driving habits, they now want $2000.00 to repair a car that has only 19,000 miles and supposed to carry a 5 years 60,000 miles bumper to bumper warranty. if I don't have the repairs I'm still stuck with $475.00 bill for checking the car, calling Hyundai customer service is no help, they are the most rude people I ever talk to, the dealer was no help, they only care about you at time of purchase, I went to many websites and found that many people had same problems with the clutch as I did, there is even a class action suit in CA in regards to the 2003 Tiburon, My advise to anybody is to check other cars and warranties because HYUNDAI DOES NOT HAVE AMERICAS BEST Warranty as they claim to have.
