Love this car, but regret buying it
First I will say my wife and I really enjoy this car, it is exactly the vehicle we had been hoping to find. It's our love for this car that makes the experience of owning it even more disappointing. Within the first week after taking delivery the air conditioning failed and we were driving around in Florida heat for about a week before parts arrived. The car spent two days with the dealer for the repair. To be fair we were ok without AC briefly we still enjoyed the car and after the repair air conditioning works great. Shortly after the car was returned to us I gave it the first wash and wax, this is when we noted a very large and poorly done paint repair to the driver's door and rear door that suggests the car had been involved in some sort of incident that required a repair of this size. I brought this to the attention of the dealer and contacted HMA case #42770142. This process was started June 1 2026. So far the response has been that the dealer would replace the driver's door handle (the least of my concerns). As far as the paint is concerned per the collision center I would have to pay an estimated 2,115.00 dollars to have the repair corrected. Thus far the usual state of things is I call the dealer, the dealer states they are waiting on HMA, HMA states they are waiting on the dealer, and the only resolution to the paint issues is for me to give the car over to the collision center for at least a week along with a check for at least 2,115.00. I am very disappointed in this. This is the first new car I have ever purchased, and this car came with a significant amount of debt and to discover I was sold a wrecked and repaired automobile makes me want to be rid of this car. Which is the point that makes us sad. This is the car we wanted and still want. Hyundai has built a fine car. If I had known that this car was damaged and the response from the dealer and HMA would be so apathetic. I would have made a different choice. So to be clear I do like this car very much- the drivability, features , comfort etc. all fantastic, but every time I get in the driver's side and see the repair I very much regret my decision to purchase this car.
