NEED ADVICE quick!

Four years of payments and you still owe $7281!!!! Man, they saw you coming! :o) Shop around for prices. Don't just take the Hyundai garage word for it. You got good mileage out of the clutch so pay what you have to and get on with life. Just don't pay $2000.

Ya they saw me! LOL...bastards!

I've got no real answers, but Tom has a point. Phone some reputable shops in your area and ask for quotes for replacing the clutch, pressure plate, throwout bearing, and flywheel.

Consider that you're responsible for the $7281 no matter what.

Consider what the vehicle is worth in its current condition.

Consider what the vehicle is worth after it's repaired.

Once you know the above, you can make the decision that hopefully costs you the least money.

It takes two to tango.

Bastards??? You have no obligation in this? No - they didn't see you coming - you blindly walked into a situation that you chose. Don't blame the dealer.

Oh geez come on...just saying. I wasn't mad I was laughing..making "conversation" if anything. I could have gotten offended and/or defensive or picked the statement apart (similar to what a couple of YOU guys have done)..but instead I rolled with it.

My bad. Knee jerk reaction, I guess. It's so common to see people blame everything on the dealers when so much of what they blame on them is really of their own doing.

No problem - thanks man. :-)

Good advice, HT. If he doesn't want to invest in a new clutch system, then, perhaps, he can recover his $7200 by selling as is to someone who can do the clutch replacement at home. Might be a good way to get a car cheap.
