Following the January 2007 service the mileage suddenly dropped from 12 Kmpl (with the AC always on in Chennai city traffic) to 8 Kmpl. This was brought to the notice of KUN Hyundai service engineer Mr.Raja (98404287700) and recorded in their complaint sheet but they could not identify the problem. Now Mr.Balaji (9840428764) of KUN Hyundai says the repairs will cost more than Rs.35,000 which is more than 10% of a new car. Shocking!
