My wife drives a 2007 Entourage, and in slightly less than 2 years, we
have had to replace both power outlet fuses (15 amp) twice.
Unfortuately, I can't tie down just when they fail.
She regularly uses the outlets for her cell phone charger and/or the

I think the clutch is going in my 2006 Elantra.  75,000 miles on it so
I can't claim it isn't driven much.  ;-)  
Would it be under the original owner warranty?

Just received a safety recall notice from Hyundai on my 2008 Elantra.
Problem seems to be with the electric fuel pump motor inside the tank.  They
say they will replace the fuel pump subassembly.  At no charge, of course.

Well, I put the Sonata on the road a few weeks ago, and it's a

2009 Hyundai Sonata SE V6 4dr Sedan (3.3L 6cyl 5A) w/ a mfg date of
5/09.  I'd say that's pretty new.  Way too new for the AC to be on the

Monday I made my first appointment at the local Hyundai dealer (BTW
where also I bought my Sonata) for some maintenance work that the
owner's manual suggests strongly is required to maintain my warranty.
Specifically, replacement of the fuel filter, fuel tank air filter and

I've got a 2002 Sonata LX with 85k miles that has developed a very
nasty habit. If I hit a frost heave or something similar, the radio
cuts out briefly then returns and plays perfectly.  This trick was
followed a short time later with the airbag light staying lit after
