Other Fuel System Fuel Gauge problem #1

Junk! just over the 60,000 mile warranty and just about everything you can imagine went wrong. The gas gauge does not work. The exhaust broke apart on the flex pipe. It's all one piece and costs $850 just for parts. One out of two O2 sensors are bad at $200 a pop! front wheel bearings went; one seized up and one was wobbling loose at $200 each. Front and rear brakes both went at once, rotors and all. Alternator also went bad which lead to new battery. Gas mileage went down to 28 mpg. Everything has been maintained on a regular basis and I'm still losing gas mileage. Over all I think I have paid for this car at least twice!.

Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem #2

My cars fuel tank is now giving me problems. When I pull up to the pump get gas the car says its empty but when fueling the car constantly clicks saying its full. I have to keep taking the pump in and out of the car to reseal it then try again and again and most times again. When the gas attendants see what car I own and the trouble I have they say its a known issue with Hyundai's in general and does not matter what model. It's very irritating when I can only get a few dollars at a time because it takes so much time. My brother is a mechanic and said he gets these all the time. There has to be more people complaining about this. Not sure if anyone else has this problem but I did research the database here and did not find any recalls regarding this issue. Thanks, jennifer.
