HOPING TO HEAR BACK FROM YOU, (XXXXX) REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
Additional Notes:
THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR WILL NOT OPEN FROM EITHER INSIDE OR OUT. THERE IS NO DAMAGE TO DOOR OR VEHICLE, THIS STARTED RANDOMLY OVER AN YEAR AND FINALLY WON'T OPEN. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID ITS OUT OF WARRANTY BY 1,000 MILES AND IT WILL COST OVER $500 TO BE FIXED. THEY RECOMMEND CUTTING THE DOOR HANDLE OFF TO GAIN ACCESS.

MY REAR PASSENGER DOOR WON'T OPEN. IT'S NOT LOCKED, AND I'VE PUT AS MUCH FORCE ON IT AS I THINK I CAN WITHOUT BREAKING THE HANDLE AND IT WON'T OPEN. THIS SEEMS LIKE A PRETTY COMMON PROBLEM WITH TUCSON'S AND WITH HYUNDAI'S IN GENERAL. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY.

Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
THIS EVENING ME AND MY FIANC WERE DRIVING 45MPH DOWN HILL ON A STRAIGHT ROAD TO GET CHRISTMAS GIFTS, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN OUT OF NO WHERE THE ENGINE JUST DIED/STALLED (NO WARNING/DASHBOARD LIGHTS). THANK GOD WE WERE ABLE TO COAST INTO A GAS STATION AND GET OFF THE ROAD SAFELY. THE CAR WOULDN'T EVEN TURN OVER, SO MY FIANC CHECKED THE OIL AND IT WAS LOW. THE CAR DOESN'T LEAK OIL AND WE DO OIL CHANGES EVERY 3,000 MILES RELIGIOUSLY. WE CARRY EXTRA OIL IN CASE AN OIL WARNING LIGHT APPEARS SO WE ADDED OIL TO CORRECT FILL LEVEL. TO NO LUCK THE CAR STILL WOULDN'T TURN OVER. AS IT IS SATURDAY NIGHT AND TOMORROW BEING SUNDAY WE HAVE TO WAIT TILL MONDAY MORNING TO GET THE CAR TO A HYUNDAI DEALER TO BE ASSESSED BY THEM. HOPEFULLY THEY WILL COME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT THE CAR BURNS OIL OUT OF NO WHERE AND THAT THE CARS OIL WARNING/PRESSURE LIGHT IS MALFUNCTIONING/FAULTY. IN FINDING THAT I AM HOPING THE DEALER WILL HONOR MY WARRANTY AND REPLACE MY ENGINE.
