Hyundai is facing a hard time, after a customer from California has filed a suit in Sacramento County Superior Court.
The problem of Louis Bird, owner of a 2011 Hyundai Elantra, seems to be revolving around the Hyundai advertisements which say that the cars can have a 40-mpg rating on the highway. Which, is very wrong and unlikely.
According to Bird, “Hyundai’s advertisements about the ’40 MPG’ gas mileage of the Elantra instantly caught my attention. I bought the car thinking I would be seeing major savings at the pump and getting over 500 miles per tank, but Hyundai fooled me… I have not saved any money on gas and have been driving the Elantra for well over a year now. It is frustrating and disappointing. I never would have bought the Elantra in the first place if I hadn’t seen Hyundai’s ads boasting about gas mileage.”
Further on, you have some videos that show the ads. Stay tuned for more info about this matter!
