Hyundai I40 2012 Problems
No car is perfect, but we've gathered everything relating to the Hyundai I40 2012 reliability here to help you decide if it's a smart buy.
i40 warranty and clutch replacement
As I am sure you have been told clutches are considered wear and tear items and as such are not covered by the warranty. If it's found the cause is something other than a worn clutch rectification would possibly be covered by the warranty, but if it's shown to be a worn clutch you will be up for the cost of repairs, which will include the cost of tearing it down. I don't see there's any escaping that cost.
Hyundai i40 exploding rear glass
Normally the glass isn’t covered by the warranty; it comes under the wear-and-tear category and so is excluded. But a shattered rear glass would appear to be different to the regular run of glass failures. I would first attempt to negotiate with Hyundai and mount a case for compensation that they couldn’t possibly refuse. You could go to the Ombudsman, but that will take time and I would doubt if it would ultimately help.
No AM radio reception in i40
You need to take the problem directly to Hyundai and make them aware of your frustration. Approach it calmly and armed with all of the information you have from past attempts to fix the issue, and ask for the company's help in not only fixing the reception problem, but also to restore your faith in the Hyundai product. If you don't want to pursue that course take the car to an independent radio specialist who should be able to sort it out for you.
Hyundai i40 brake wear
You've done well, because brakes are called 'wear and tear" items and not normally covered under warranty. Lots of cars have heavy brake wear these days because of ABS and the deletion of asbestos from components. It's a fact of life, although I can recommend Bendix Euro+ brake pads as a partial solution.
