After the work was done they tell me it was "driver fault" and charged me $1900. I insisted on seeing the destroyed clutch or speaking with the mechanic who came to this conclusion and they refused. I spoke to the GM Andrew Robinson who said "Driver fault is driver fault, I can't do anything about it". They also refused to show me the book dictating how many hours of labor a customer is automatically charged for each type of work. Hyundai Canada said warranty work after the base 3yr warranty is the dealer's discretion. I'd driven stick for 10 years and never replaced a clutch, and the car still grinds going into 2nd.

With the car still under warranty, I tried Calgary Hyundai out when I had a knocking noise going over bumps coming from the wheel well. They replaced some transmission brackets and charged me $750, citing "expected wear and tear" which is not covered under warranty. Of course the knocking was still there, and Calgary Hyundai refused to even look at it again without charging me the minimum inspection fee of $100 or whatever.

Currently my right blinker is stuck on solid, all the time. It stays on when I turn the car off and kills the battery. I have to remove the fuse every time I turn my car off. For either dealer to fix this, the entire body control module must be replaced, which is around $1000.

Just. Stay. Away.
