Power window & door locks failed.
If there is any moisture on the outside of the driver's side window, it is not removed when window is rolled down and back up. Asked Hyundai dealer to take a look at it shortly after I purchased it. They said there was nothing they could do and that it was a characteristic of the Hyundai. I feel this is a safety issue.
