In late june I purchased a new 2007 hyundai accent from duncan hyundai. After only 2000 miles the check engine light came on. I took it back. The codes were reset and I was told there was a service matter on the car and that this would take care of it. I took the car home. The next morning I started the car and after about 3 miles the light came on again. I had the car picked up and taken to the dealer. I was told they needed to keep the car overnight so they could reset the code when the car was cold. I said this was ok with me. When I called later the next day and ask if the car would be ready that afternoon I was told "you can drive the car and the light will probably come back on. We will order some parts and repair the car when they come in" I ask what type parts. I was told, " a new cylinder head, exhaust manifold and all the injectors." I was totally shocked. These parts constitute a major engine overhaul and the car has not even had its first oil change. I paid over $13, 000 for this car and I will have a new car with a rebuilt engine in it. I told them I did not want this done. I was told hyundai told then this is what they must do. As it now stands my "new" car is to have this major engine work done on tuesday. I am very angry about this matter. I was told by one of the employees there that this happens to "1 in 300" of the accents. So now I will be driving a new car with a rebuilt engine. Hey thanks a lot hyundai!
