Hello, i'm 26yrs old. i own a 2003 tiburon gt v6 6speed with less than 80,000 miles. i bought it off of the original owner with only 9,000 miles. within the 70,000 miles i've driven it, it's had three clutches.? i've owned all manual driven cars since i was 16, i learned how to drive with one. we all know i burned that clutch up a little bit yet i still didn't burn that clutch out. the first clutch i had to replace i paid for the parts. hyundai took care of the labor which was nice but, i still had to pay for a part that i wasn't at fault for ruining. now i'm on my third clutch, i had to pay for this one in full because i'm the second owner and hyundai only covers 60,000 miles. as of 01\06\09 this one is no longer working. there has to be a manufactures defect of some kind. whether it is the hydraulic lines pumping too much or not enough fluid, the reverse dual mass clutch, or it being the first year they made the car, and this was one of the problems hyundai had to take care of. i need help please. i've read more reviews on "2003" tiburon's than i can handle to read, and at least 90% said they had clutch problems. i started looking for a solution and the only thing i could find was consumer affairs #, e-mail, and a few other #'s. i called the consumer affairs #, and now they told me they can't help go figure. their reason was it being to far out of warranty although it was at only 31,000 miles. now at 77,000 it goes again, what a coincidence. this disaster of a car has cost me around $4,000 and has also put a halt on my life. i had a jeep payment that i had to surrender back to the bank because i could no longer pay for repairs on the tiburon and my jeep. i'm writing this in hope that there is some kind of good will, recall, ect. to help reimburse my loses. thank you in advance *tr

Bcm (body control module) defective on my 2003 hyundai tiburon. airbag warning light stays on so don't know if it will deploy in a crash. door locks don't work. cruise control doesn't work. left blinker stays on unless disconnected (police gave me a warning regarding this) many others reported similar problems online. all seem to be due to a defective body control module which costs $700 just for the part. there should be a recall on the bcm since so many others have similar issues! especially worry about airbag not deploying in an accident. *tr

Clutch failed at 44,000 miles after buying car used. service department would not fix , stated it was wear and tear. cost $1500 to fix. airbag light stays on, past 65,000 so service department wont fix it unless i pay for it. hatch back latch wont work, $200 to fix that. headlights burn out every other month. brought car to service center because of a noise in the front of car. said they couldnt hear anything. 2000 miles over my warrentee brought car back because it was getting worse, said it was front wheel assembly and would cost $1000 to fix. during cold weather emergency brake sticks took it in and they couldnt find anything wrong, go figure. seats wont latch sometimes after letting someone out from the back. is there a end to the problems that i have with this hyundai.
