On 12/31/2012, the coil spring on my 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe fractured and punctured the right front tire of the vehicle. I paid upwards of $2000 on 1/7/2013 to have this repaired. I have since traded in the vehicle and no longer own it. I recently received a recall notice from Hyundai usa describing the same coil spring fracture that I experienced a couple of years earlier. This recall is called 'campaign124' by Hyundai. Today (11/4/2014), I called to inquire about the possibility for some reimbursement for the repair I had performed after my incident. I was informed that this was not possible since I no longer owned the vehicle and the repair could not be inspected by Hyundai, I don't feel that this is right and I should be entitled to some reimbursement. If requested, I would be able to provide detail of the work performed by the mechanic who performed the service.

This vehicle has been driven extensively year round, including snowy northeast Ohio winters. On a somewhat cold day in March 2014, my 2004 Santa Fe sat outside on a surface lot for approximately 14 hours. As I pulled my car out of the parking space, the car lurched to the front right and came to a halt. I had pulled forward approximately 3 feet, had turned the wheel slightly to the right, and just began to hit the gas to pull out of the parking space. It was quite obvious that my front right tire had blown violently. No accidents occured with other vehicles and no injuries occured; however, should someone have been standing near the front right tire, someone may have been hurt. While trying to change the tire, it became obvious that the spring had broken and made contact with the tire. The vehicle needed to be towed on a flatbed and repairs were made. I still own the vehicle, and I am now aware that this part has been recalled for this exact issue. I am concerned about the integrity of the spring on the opposite side as it is currently an original part.

Received a notice of recall for front coil spring issue in mail, my front coil sprig is currently broken. Called dealership to have it repaired and told they do not have the parts to fix it or a remedy for me to have a drivable car until it can be fixed. No time frame can be given when they can fix the issue.
