RE: Rear tire wear

Those wheels are definitely out of whack. You should contact Hyundai so that they know your dealer is lying to you.

RE: Transmission problem ??

It has happened to me once since my San diego trip. Last week after a 150 mile interstate trip. Not as bad as the first time it was happening over a year ago. I have no faith that the dealer can...

RE: grinding noise when RPMs are coming down after the start

My tensioner was replaced on my 2006 Azera last year, but the noise is still there on startup. I love this car, but the engine is always making strange clicks and clunks.

I just returned from a 5000 mile trip to San Diego and back. The transmission never gave me any trouble or "thunks".

Aftermarket sound systems

I have a 2006 Limited with the standard radio. The bass seems to be a little weak. Has anyone replaced their speakers and gotten an improvement in the sound?

RE: Dashboard Cracked~

That is pretty strange... I wonder if the airbag had a malfunction and tried to deploy. Was it there all of a sudden, or small at first and keeps growing?

Azera has been back in my possession for a week now. Everything seems to be working. I haven't heard "the" noise, yet. I hope my dealer appreciates the $2000 they will get from the warranty work.
