Hyundai Rack&Pinion Problem/Warranty Claim (Accent, Elentra etc)

[Starex_Gold]

last 2 oil changes ko sa gts congressional ave. pwede kasi mag-miron dun, tapos abutan ko lang ng P100-200 yung mechanic tapos sabihan ko check lahat sa suspension, engine mount, adjust hand brake etc. di na nya sasabihin sa cashier na may ginawa siyang iba kahit na 10 minutes siya nagto-torque ng mga bolts ng suspension. saka habang nakataas sa lift yung gs andun din ako sa ilalim, may hawak din na tools saka brake cleaner hahaha!

next time try ko kia congressional. ok service nila nung 15k ng sorento e. pwede din mag-miron dun e.

Nung 15K mo lang dinala sa Kia Congressional yun Sorento mo?

Maayos talaga gawa doon. Nakaka tatlong PMS na yung Sportage dun. Nitong 30,000km lang pumalpak, after nila palitan yun fuel filter bigla nag-hard starting at sinisinok pag-mag start ang engine. Lumakas din sa gas. Zic A+ 5W-20 gamit ko.

10k and 15k dun na sa kia congressional. Yung 15k e P12k unang quote, pero di ko pinagawa lahat ( aircon filter, air filter replacement, pinalinis ko lang) kaya P4.7k lang binayaran ko, wala naman daw kaso sa warranty yun.

+1. Ang sama ng after sales diyan sa E. Rod at Manila Bay. Isama mo na Hyundai Commonwealth.

Sa QC area ang okay lang ay Hyundai Quezon Avenue pero minsan may kalokohan parin.

Sa South area Hyundai Las Pinas panalo talaga. Walang bad record sa akin yan. Sa metikuloso kong 'to. Hyundai Dasma maayos din syempre.

Pwede niyo dalahin yan sa Hyundai Quezon Avenue kung malapit kayo dun, tapos timbrehan niyo ako. Hahanapin ko sa HARI kung sino ang dapat naka-tutok sa warranty claims. Request ni Vice Mayor sasabihin ko J/K

Pero minsan sa totoo lang (hindi sa dinedepensahan ko ang HARI) minsan nasa casa din ang katarantaduhan. Dahil hindi lang sa Hyundai Service Centers nangyayari 'to.

Thanks for the heads up, Starex gold

Im in Manila so Hyundai Quezon Ave will be fine. I might take you up on your offer Starex gold.. titimbrehan kita pag na-file ko na

I wouldnt mind driving all the way up to Las Pinas either if thats what it takes for a hassle-free Warranty claim. Kakatakot kasi mga Horror Stories dito sa mga casa.. like yung current thread now on North Edsa (also Rack & Pinion claim)

So: "BAD" Casas: E.Rod, Manila Bay/Macapagal. I also remember bad thread about Abad Santos and I remember someone before complaiing about Otis (I think it was you Stargold ) (Otis was my casa and sabi nila no prob daw i-claim tapos biglang nag-sara naman and referring me to Abad Santos... pero takot na rin ako dun bec of negative feedback....)

"Good' Casas: Quezon Ave, Las Pinas, Commonwealth ?

any others?

Ok ba sa Hyundai BGC or what is now Hyundai Pasong Tamo? Its part of the Autohub Group, just for your information LOL

May kakilala kasi ako sa Wheels kaya sana pag mag-warranty claim (huwag naman sana) ay hindi ako mahirapan.

sa macapagal din dealer ko pati insurance pinagbigyan ko sila since kilala ko isa sa mataas dun pero ng nadikwat side mirror ng tucs ko nakatunganga lahat sa simple at cheap claim ko. kung hindi pa ako nagsisisigaw sa sa warranty claim at crm nila at lahat ng tao nakatingin sa mezzanine kung saan located yung warranty / insurance desk nila saka lang sila nabulabog at bigla nagpalit ng side mirrors ko. to think na after ko nag complain with police . baranggay report isubmit "daw" kay HARI nakaalis na ako ng bansa at nakabalik panay daw ipa follow up sabi kay wifey,

after more than a month ayun personal ko pinuntahan at hinanap ko yung ka email ko na crm at warranty in charge ng macapagal pati yung mail ko kay HARI. nakakahiya pero yun lang pala ang kelangan ngawin para kumilos sila grabe.

then lipat ako dasma, then 15k try ko HLP ayun wala ako na encounter na problem except dun nga sa compressor ng tucs owner more than a month na waiting pa din HARI advise.

Just an update...

my problem is worse now. When I twist the steering wheel fully (as in hard left or hard right) may sumasabit and you can feel a loud popping sound and resistance. I showed it to my mechanic and he said rack and pinion nga daw and says its dangerous daw.. baka mag lock up na lang steering ko and I lose control. So i havent been using my car lately.

Already made an appointment with a casa (since my original casa, OTIS, is now closed) and will bring my car in tomorrow.

Im just bummed that it might take a few weeks up to a month before its fixed, assuming i wont encounter warranty claim problems like the one in HNE. That means weeks or months i cant use my 2 year old car? And to add insult to injury, these are the times that at least you would feel better "whew! Good thing my car has a 3 year/ 5 year warranty!!" but then we read a lot of horror stories here so instead of feeling relieved, you feel anxiety pa...

Anyway, anyone here has this kind of problem as well? steering column problem? Might it not be the whole steering column/EPS assembly (like the case of that claim in HNE over i the other thread?)

How about Hyundai Alabang? Are they hassle free as well?

Saan casa ka nagpa-appointment? Sad to hear about the problem of your car. Hope everything will get fixed ASAP!

Hi Guys.

Can I ask how many Hyundai owners have problems with Rack and Pinion, (specially for newer car models like the 2011 Accent and Elantra?)

I have this problem and saw quite a few people in other threads have this too (and this are only recent posts.. maybe there's more complaints elsewhere .. ie., the "Accent Problems" thread is over a hundred pages so maybe there's some mentioned somewhere in there)

But to recap:

#1. The mechanic in my last PMS said i have a Rack & Pinion problem (after I complained) , and he admitted its a common problem, and they have replaced several already under warranty. Problem is, I applied for warranty replacement but the Casa closed down already (Otis)

#2. Read some other Tsikoters managed to get their rack and Pinion Replaced.

#3. Read some other Tsikoter also complaining of Rack and Pinion problems, but so far no updates from them, (I am creating this thread in the hopes of consolidating any similar complaints out there, instead of being scattered in other threads)

#4 Read post of maimaicomp,, his Elantra has the same Rack and Pinion problem but he has a nightmare dealing with Hyundai Edsa for the warranty..

#5 Re: Warranty Claims/PMS schedule/"5 year extendy Warranty"/ HARI after sales service..... Several ongoing threads about this where MANY HYUNDAI OWERS ARE COMPLAINING. (see #4). However, there are some who had easier time with Warranty claims (see #2)

#6. Btw, I googled "Hyundai (or Accent) Rack and Pinion Problems/Warranty" didnt find any results of anyone really complaining about this. Only anecdotal evidence (see # 1-4) I was wondering if this is an issue in units sold in other markets (for example, it seems accent rear shocks is widely acknowledged as a known issue)

So...anyone out there care to share any similar experiences? Now that my Casa (who at first seemed to say no problem to my warranty claim..they even took pics and everything) is closed, I need to find a RELIABLE, HASSLE-FREE CASA (Is there even such a thing? According to #2, there are). I already know to Avoid North Edsa like the Plague. So Any Suggestions? How about Hyundai Macapagal?

Thanks in Advance to any advice.

Hi sir,

If I may ask, ito (Rack & Pinion issue) ba yung tunog kalampag when driving in some uneven terrain?

Thank you
