poor experience at Hyundai of Tempe....
 

I was told I had a transmission leak by the person who did my last oil
change. Sounded kind of odd on such a new car (06 Sonata, 6k miles) so I
took it in to have it looked at. While I was there I asked for a few
other things to be looked at. One was the automatic door locking at
5mph. The other was a really funky smell coming from my A/C vents. The
odd thing is, this is the exact same smell as in my 03 Elantra.

I just received a call from the fella I dropped the car off with. No
transmission leak, which is good. The other things he said disturbed me
a bit. Firstly, the door locks. He said they "managed to get it to work
the way I wanted." He also said that normally they charge $90.00 for
this service, but he'd kindly waive that fee for me. Additionally, he
told me that the air conditioner smell was a normal problem that exists
on all Hyundais. The only thing they could do would be to do the "fresh
air" service or some such thing. Of course that costs 49.99. This car is
less than six months old, has 6000 miles on it. I'm supposed to just
cope with a god-awful-smelling A/C problem? How can my warranty not
cover that? Is this just a crappy dealership?
