Water continues to gush out of the driver side passenger door when opened after raining. I also found out on Friday, July 30, 2023, that water has been leaking into the trunk of my brand-new car since purchasing it on May 10, 2023. It's a hybrid. [XXX], Pearson Hyundai's New Car Sales Manager (who I bought my car from), and I are extremely concerned about water leaking into the trunk of an electric vehicle which puts me, my family and anyone else who rides in the car at potential risk. Currently my car is at Pearson Hyundai again to fix this issue for the fourth time. Attached are the three previous service invoices that I've received. If needed, I can provide three videos that I recorded of the same issue on May 30th, June 17th and July 1st. Please know that I have also shared the videos with [XXX], Pearson Hyundai's Service Manager and [XXX], Pearson's Service Advisor. On July 3, 2023, I filed a report with Hyundai Customer Service. The Case Number is [XXX]. The last text I received from [XXX], Pearson's Service Manager, yesterday (7/5/23) follows: "I’m sorry I don’t have any answers yet, we’re trying to figure this out, I’m even reaching out to somebody I know when the collision industry that understands body framing-- Sent from Gmail Mobile" INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
