Screw Hyundai

[nokysa]

My Back Quarter Window Was Busted Out Yesterday. So I Go To The Dealership To Get It Fixed. Its $412 For A New Window. They Must Be Smokin Crack Cause Thats Ridiculous. **** The Elantra. **** Hyundai Harder. Cheap Car But Expensive To Fix. I Can't Wait To Get Rid Of This Car. The Biggest Piece Of Crap I've Ever Owned. My 96 Escort Was Better Than My Elantra.

shouldnt that be covered in your insurance.

[evan938]

and maybe you should go to another dealership or a private shop...youre talking about the small window in the rear? sed got parts for like 140$

[SuperGLS]

Someone broke into your car and that is Hyundai's fault?

Sorry for what happened, I guess.

[knottravesty]

Yeah what does that have to do with Hyundai. And why does that make it "cheap" lol.... Thats good though... Wow I hate to see what would happen if you got your tires slashed or soemthing lol.... DAMN HYUNDAI SUCKS...

[paki]

well i think he was saying that since hyundai's come cheaper than most cars in its class, the repairs should've been cheaper too.

but yeah like someone said farther down.. its true about the custom fit of the small window.. it should cost that much maybe a little less.. thats why im editing my original comment and putting this in place.. custom **** is always $$$$$$

[joph09]

hey dude i'm new here but i'm not new to dealer complaints cuz i'm a customer service rep and i get complaints from gm customers but i'm not too sure about hyundai but i'm pretty sure that its totally up to the dealer to set prices and for repairs so take it up with your dealer not hyundai

cry me a river.....if your that pissed off put a peice of plexiglass there or some cardboard

I would say goto your insurance company and pay the deduct.My only question is,how are you goin to blame the car for something that was not in your control?If that was the case all my cars would have been crappy due to all the stuff I have messed up when modding them out

[mbv2001]

why even go to a dealer to get a window fixed in the first place?

DIDO......things that tend to get replaced less are always more expensive=back windows don't get broken often=expensive=insurance should help pay :)

[johnblaze94]

In thais case, I guess it is McDonalds fault that people are fat, Cable Televisions Fault for making people lazy, And Playstations fauld for people killing people....

Way to go.

[mrhoaf]

did you try checking at a glass place... like Guardian?




and if you think your Escort was better because a window in your Elantra is too expensive, you're the one smoking crack....

[zx2uner]

People are always placing blame....so Hyundai, McD, TV. and Playstation...have something in common :abovelol: :abovelol: :abovelol:

[2loud2k2xd]

i used to do auto glass. that little back side window costs that much because the labor involved. its a PITA to remove and replace. but 412.00 is pricy. like they said above, try a window repair company. (guardian, henderson glass, glass doctor, ect.) look in the phone book.

and dont ***** about hyundai. they may not cost as much as other cars, but they hold up just as well. but hyundai dealerships do suck, imo.

[Vampyrate]

#1 if it was the small window, it should cost that much. they are tiny and need to be custom fit to every vehicle, there is no template to get "universal glass" like a windshield, or even regular window.

#2 insurance should cover it, if you reported it

#3 hyundais are not expensive to fix, especially if you aren't afraid to try to fix it yourself and know what you are doing.

[solonm77]

I never posted before, but I think I should. I replace glass for a living and there are many reasons why that window is more expensive. For one you went to a dealer who in turn is going to get a glass company to come and replace this window. They have to pay the company so, you are going to have to pay a inflated price. And two tempered glass is more expensive than laminated (windshield glass) because is not as commonly replaced. Oh...I had a 96 Escort...biggest piece of **** I ever owned...ford bought it back...I'll take the Hyundai any day

:confused: You need some rest buddy.

[johnblaze94]

Ah Collective anger at its finest... I love the Flame department

[FordFasteRR]

i had the same window busted out on my car earlier this year.

I got a new window from the dealer for $ 90.

retail on it was like 140 ?

You could buy the class yourself and install it at home, it took me about 30 minutes to install by myself with only a screw driver to remove the door panel.

lol

you suck big time, and if i recall ... the escort you had came with a mazda engine in it... it had mazda suspension components on it too... it was basically an mx3 with a different body on it..

[evan938]

ah, see...i knew someone got a new window for pretty cheap...couldnt remember if it was ford or sed

[2001GLS]

Yep, an auto glass place is the way to go in this case. They can do the install on site & it might be covered by insurance (windsheilds are in a lot of states). I'd say he should check the salvage yard. Tons of junked Elantras out there.... no need to go to the dealer & pay $400 for a window!

[hyunelan2]

The dealer ripping you off has nothing to do with Hyundai. It's the individual dealer thinking you are gullable enough to pay it (hopefully you weren't).

And in my few years of being on the site... typically someone posts about how much Hyundai sucks for one reason... to get attention. You don't have to waste all kinds of time telling all the other owners how much you hate your car. It's a really easy solution. If you don't like your car, sell it and buy something else. Problem solved.

this thread should be locked... points were made and there's nowhere to go from here...

[hyunelan2]

Good idea... and locked.
