I wouldn't have let it go for so long , especially after 7 panels resprayed !!!! Obviously an inherent fault with paintwork / bodywork since you got car . I would want car replaced , though being a 2009 car now causes problems . Either that or a great deal on another car , but would not keep it any longer . How long have you had to do without car while all this work has been carried is another bone of contention you should raise .Also take " mick p's " advice

It`s not the half of it, I`ve had to drive the car 40 miles to the garage and back each time to get photos taken of the paintwork problem , and then book the car in to be re sprayed so drive it to the garage again.So it`s 80 miles per each re spray! , oh and I`ve been offered £60 as a gesture of good will. I do get a hire car but no immediate solution to the problem. I have got a rusty car! I wrote to Mr Big Hyundai and he told me to pay for an independant inspection and that I have to bear in mind outside influences can affect the car. If that were the case, they wouldn`t have taken it back under warranty so many times.
AND the steering rack broke, when I rang to say it had been clarified with my local garage at the end of my road I was instructed to DRIVE the car 20 miles to the garage. Hyundai refused to recover the car and so I had to pay for it. In the warranty there is a clause that says something aong the lines of " Any original Hyundai part which fails under warranty will be replaced at no extra cost to the owner" . Yet refuse to recover the vehicle and argue with me to drive it with a broken steering rack, it would endanger my life and other road users to have driven it. Hyundai customer care is shocking!!!!!!!!!!!!
The next time the paintwork blisters (which it will!) I shall take it straight to a solicitor and contact Trading Standards so they`re aware of how I`ve been treated, I have all the correspondance. My voice and rights simply are being ignored by Hyundai. Thank you for your help :)
