FIRST INCIDENT: BLOWER MOTOR FOR HEAT QUIT WORKING. FOUND CONNECTOR (CLIMATE CONTROL SIDE) HAD MELTED REPLACED WITH USED CLIMATE CONTROL. NOVEMBER 2010. BLOWER MOTOR HAD QUIT WORKING AGAIN FOUND SAME CONNECTOR AS WELL AS BODY HARNESS SIDE CONNECTOR HAD MELTED. REPLACED WITH USED HARNESS AND CLIMATE CONTROL. NOVEMBER 2010 TO DECEMBER 2014 VEHICLE HEADLIGHTS WOULD INTERMITTENTLY STAY ON WHEN LIGHTS WERE SHUT OFF. JANUARY 26 2015 WHILE DRIVING DASH LIGHTS, RADIO, TAIL LIGHTS, WINDOWS, TURN SIGNALS. INTERMITTENTLY TURNING OFF AND ON. FOUND CLIMATE CONTROL HARNESS SIDE MELTED AGAIN, ALSO BODY CONTROL MODULE AND POWER WIRE TO HAVE MELTED. AFTER SEARCHING THESE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS MELTING APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE. ALTHOUGH MY PERSONAL VEHICLE HAS HIGH MILEAGE AND IS OLDER THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO STRETCH BACK TO WHEN THE VEHICLES WERE NEW, EARLIEST OCCASION I FOUND WAS 2005. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT AND AFTER A RIGHT HAND TURN THE RIGHT TURN SIGNAL STAYED ILLUMINATED BOTH FRONT AND REAR. AFTER I PARKED THE CAR AT DESTINATION AND TURNED OFF THE IGNITION AND REMOVED THE KEY THE TURN SIGNAL LIGHT STAYED ON.I CHANGED THE BULBS AND THE FUSE WHICH DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. AFTER LOOKING UP ON THE INTERNET FOR KNOWN TIBURON ISSUES, I FOUND SEVERAL INSTANCES OF THE IDENTICAL ISSUE FOR THE 2003 TIBURON. THE PROBLEM IS A RELAY IN THE BCM AND COINCIDENTALLY THE ISSUE HAPPENS AT AROUND 65- 80000 MILES. THE COST OF THE BCM IS APPROXIMATELY $400 WITHOUT LABOR. *TR

CURRENTLY MY 2003 HYUNDAI TIBURON GT HAS MY LEFT TURN SIGNAL LIGHTS ON. THE FRONT AND THE BACK ONE STAY ON NO MATTER WHAT, EVEN IF I TURN THE CAR OFF AND TAKE THE KEYS OUT. I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM, AND IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS, SO MY QUESTION IS... WHY ISN'T THERE A RECALL ON IT? ESPECIALLY SINCE THE PART IS SO EXPENSIVE!! I DON'T KNOW IF OTHER PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM BUT WHENEVER MY TURN SIGNAL STARTED TO ACT UP SO DID MY SUNROOF. NOW THAT MY TURN SIGNAL IS CONSTANTLY ON, MY SUNROOF WON'T WORK AT ALL! ARE THEY RELATED? I WORK FOR A CAR DEALERSHIP AND THEY CAN'T EVEN FIND ME THE PART (WHICH IS A BODY CONTROL MODULE) ANY CHEAPER! I GUESS NOW WE ALL KNOW WHY HYUNDAI STOPPED MAKING THE TIBURON, WHICH IS SAD DUE TO IT BEING SUCH A NICE CAR, AND I LOVE MY TIBURON IT WAS MY REALITY DREAM CAR! WHEN YOU DO FINALLY RECALL THIS ITEM, IF WE ALREADY HAD IT FIXED, WOULD YOU REIMBURSE US FOR IT? ESPECIALLY IF WE HAVE THE RECEIPT FOR IT? *TR
