hi
after having such good luck with our used accent,my father has me looking
for a sonata/elantra.to replace his 1997 mazda.
i have found a one owner sonata with 100,000kms(canada)
she had it to her mechanic for a saftey inspection and they failed the car
and indicated the problem below.
car has full load including leather and moonroof
owner is asking $2500 obo.car is in very good shape other than indicated
below.
the lady that owns the car has indicated that it needs a new "engine cradle"
as the existing one is rusted out.
i have checked on the internet and this seems to be a problem with some
sonata's.i don't think anything has actually pulled out of the frame yet as
the wheels are straight and not leaned to one side.
i have checked the hmaservice site and cannot find a reference to "engine
cradle".or pictures of such.
my questions are:
what does the engine cradle consist of?
how many pieces does it consist of?
is it expensive to buy and replace(if even possible)?
would all pieces have to be replaced or only rusty ones?
does hyundai have a goodwill warranty to cover this?
i see a class action forming in the states but i am not sure if anything is
happening on this in canada.
thanks as always
jeff
