2004 Hyundai Tiburon

I HAVE A 2004 HYUNDAI TIBURON GT. WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND SWITCHED IT THE RIGHT TURN SIGNAL, IT WOULD NOT TURN OFF. I PULLED OVER AND WAS UNABLE TO GET IT OFF. EVEN AFTER SHUTTING OFF THE CAR AND REMOVING THE KEY, THE TURN SIGNAL REMAINED ON. THE ONLY WAY TO TURN IT OFF WAS TO REMOVE THE BULBS FRONT THE FRONT AND REAR HEADLIGHTS. I TOOK THE CAR TO A HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP AND SAID THE BODY CONTROL MODULE FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE COST TO REPLACE WAS $1,280. UPON RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE ONLINE, IT APPEARS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE IN 2003-2004 TIBURONS FROM HYUNDAI. HYUNDAI WOULD NOT COVER THE REPAIR BECAUSE THE CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. THERE IS NOTHING A CONSUMER CAN DO TO "MAINTAIN" A BODY CONTROL MODULE AND HYUNDAI SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 HYUNDAI TIBURON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CLUTCH WAS SLIPPING WHEN HE ACCELERATED UP TO 3,000 RPMS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER MORE THAN ONCE AND THE CLUTCH WAS REPLACED BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 82,000.

MY 2004 HYUNDAI TIBURON SUFFERS FROM A LONG LIST OF ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. BOTH POWER WINDOW MOTORS HAVE STOPPED WORKING, MY POWER TRUNK LATCH IS DEFECTIVE, THE INTERIOR LIGHT SWITCH DOESN'T WORK, AND NOW THE TURN SIGNAL RELAY THAT IS PART OF THE BODY CONTROL MODULE HAS CAUSED INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS WITH MY LEFT TURN SIGNAL. SOMETIMES IT STAYS ON EVEN AFTER TURNING OFF THE CAR. I'M WORRIED I MAY BE REAR-ENDED BECAUSE ALTHOUGH MY SIGNAL IS ON, IT SOMETIMES DOES NOT FLASH PROPERLY DUE TO THE FAULTY BCM. RESEARCH INDICATES THESE ARE VERY COMMON ISSUES WITH HYUNDAI VEHICLES, AND VERY EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR. THE BCM IS ABOUT $700 ALONE. THE WINDOW MOTORS ARE ABOUT $300 EACH. IT IS RIDICULOUS TO PAY $700 FOR A SIGNAL LIGHT. HYUNDAI SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR SHODDY ENGINEERING! *TR

PURCHASED A BRAND NEW 2004 HYUNDAI TIBURON GT AND JUST HAD THE FOURTH POWERTRAIN, CLUTCH, FLYWHEEL, ETC INSTALLED TODAY DUE TO 3 FAILURES IN 90,000 MILES. THE LAST ONE THAT WAS PUT IN WAS IN FEBRUARY 2010 AND FAILED THIS TIME NOVEMBER 26, 2010, NOT EVEN LASTING A FULL YEAR. EACH TIME, I HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE RUN-AROUND AND NO ONE HAS TAKEN TIME TO ISSUE A RECALL OR ANYTHING, EVEN WITH THE HUNDREDS OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS THAT HAVE BEEN FILED ALREADY. I AM ALMOST OUT OF MY WARRANTY AND AM SCARED THAT I WILL BE OUT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS WHEN IT FAILS AGAIN. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!! THANK YOU! *TR

MY 2004 HYUNDAI TIBURON HAS AN AILING CLUTCH PROBLEM THAT I'VE LEARNED IS VERY COMMON AMONG OTHER OWNERS. THE OTHER MORNING I WAS LEAVING FOR WORK AND AS I BEGAN TO PULL OUT ONTO THE MAIN STREET, MY CAR (WHILE IN GEAR) SLIPPED AND THE RPMS REVVED AS I SAT CROSSING THE TWO LANES OF TRAFFIC! WAS NOT A FUN TIME. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THE CAR HAS PUT ME INTO A UNCOMFORTABLE SCENARIO. KEEP IN MIND THE CAR HAS 40,000MILES. *TR
