I TOOK MY 2000 HYUNDAI ELANTRA GLS IN FOR AN ALIGNMENT. THE ALIGNMENT COULD NOT BE PERFORMED I WAS TOLD AND SHOWN BECAUSE THE VEHICLES REAR SUB FRAME HAS MULTIPLE HOLES, IS WEAK AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I WAS TOLD THAT THE VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND WILL NOT PASS THE NEXT MAINE INSPECTION. I WAS TOLD THAT FOR THE WORK TO BE DONE IT WOULD COST OVER $2,000 DOLLARS. THE DRIVERS SIDE REAR SUB FRAME HAS A VERY LARGE HOLE. *TR

2000 HYUNDAI ELANTRA HAS A PROBLEM WERE YOU CAN NOT PUMP GAS WITHOUT GAS PUMP STOPPING LIKE IT WAS FILLED ALTHOUGH YOU HAVE ONLY PUMP LESS THAN A GALLON. THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT OWN HYUNDAI'S WITH THIS PROBLEM, JUST GOOGLE HYUNDAI PUMPING GAS PROBLEMS. SOMETIMES GAS SPILLS FROM TANK WITHOUT THE TANK BEING FULLY FILLED BECAUSE THE GAS RISES, THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND HYUNDAI MUST CORRECT THIS. IT WILL TAKE ABOUT 15 TO 20 MINUTES TO FILL YOUR TANK. I THINK THIS IS A CONCERN FOR A RECALL. THE OTHER PROBLEM IS THAT YOU TAKE THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP SPEND A GOOD AMOUNT OF MONEY AND THE PROBLEM IS NOT FIXED. IM ASKING YOU TO MAKE HYUNDAI LIABLE FOR THIS. IT IS NOT ONLY ANNOYING BUT A SAFETY ISSUE. SEE WHY SO MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM AND YOU WILL BE THE JUDGE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

FOR SEVERAL WEEKS, THE FRONT DRIVERS DOOR WOULD STICK AND HAD TO BE LEANED ON HARD IN ORDER TO GET IT OPEN. NOW, THE DOOR WILL NOT OPEN WIDE ENOUGH FOR A CHILD TO GET IN OR OUT. IN ORDER FOR ME TO GET BEHIND THE WHEEL, I HAVE TO ENTER THROUGH THE PASSENGER SIDE AND CLIMB OVER THE CENTER CONSOLE. THE DOOR LOOKS AS IF IT IS DETACHING ITSELF FROM THE VEHICLE. ALSO, THE ROOF APPEARS TO BE SINKING. THESE PROBLEMS DID NOT EXIST WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. *TR
