Hi All –

I work with a law firm that’s filed suit against Hyundai regarding 1999 to 2004 models of the Sonata. The suit claims Hyundai failed to warn customers that the sub-frame lacks corrosion protection and owners are experiencing premature decay. Corrosion issues can lead to dangerous conditions if a car fails while in use.

For those of you who may not know, the sub-frame sits under the engine between the front wheels, serves as the sole steering support for the Sonata and anchors the front suspension.

If you are a Sonata owner, you can contact the law firm to join or learn more about this case. Please visit

'99 to '04 models? Every new car I've ever bought, I had the option of 'undercoating', which I didn't have done.
If these vehicles are used in areas where road salt is used, #1 the buyer should request it or have it done, and #2 all vehicles when exposed to those conditions will rust. DUH. Five to ten years seems pretty good from what I've seen and heard. Just another friviolous lawsuit. On the other hand, who in thier right mind would buy a Hyundai? Hmmmm? Maybe the owners should be sued for hurting our economy?

I agree, just more frivolous law suits. Nobody puts rust protection on sub frames.
