RECALL: 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe

[tiboyx3m]

Sir, sa tingin ko po ay takot lang ang hyundai sa ibang countries kasi malaki po ata ang penalty pati very strick po kasi safety dun. sa atin po kasi utimong jeepney walang seatbelt wlang kasafety safety... sa ibang bansa baka maband pa sila dahil dun at potential na fatal pa yun.

Paki clarify lang po. Ibig mo bang sabihin pag ginawa sa planta ng korea ang kotse pang export nila sa pinas e binababaan ang quality? Kasi hindi sila takot sa atin? Hyundai lang ba tinutukoy mo o kasali na rin pati Japanese brand? Sabagay, sabi mo nga, sa tingin mo lang. Pero hindi naman siguro ganun pre.
So, anu na next option mo kung hindi mo na type ang SF? Yung sa tingin mo e, walang defect na sasakyan.

Errh... since this is a recall for vehicles that were not sold here in the Philippines... why is this a sticky?

Notes: HYUNDAI SANTA FE 077

Mag install ako ng sprinkler system sa CRDI ko.
Which countries ba galing yung 139 units na POTENTIALLY AFFECTED?
Nasa dealership pa lang pala e. Hindi pa naibenta, nagawan na ng solution. Goes to show you the urgent remedy Hyundai took. Not like some of the manufacturers we've known who's units were already sold before they made some remedies and it took them a long time to fix the problem.
Date was 08/31/2006, for gas variants. 7 days to go 2008 na. Old news na to ah. Why bring it up? This doesn't worry me one bit. Funny lang.

An input such as those should be taken seriously so that we will be aware of them, so we can do something/check/verify/research on it. I took that as a honest feedback with no Malice at all. Anyway, everybody is entitled to their own opinions.
