She took it back to them and she said that when they cleared the remains of the glass off she saw the tech guy use a dremel tool on one side of the hatch frame to smooth a section out. When I confronted the service manager about it he flatly denied it and we had to pay for the window. We of course will not be visiting that dealership again and I just love it when they call to see if we want to trade it in on a new one.

My sunroof cost $1700, and both the dealership and Hyundai insisted that something must have hit the glass, even though I was the only vehicle around. I researched online, and found that this was not uncommon, and a class action suit was being unitiated in the USA. Insurance covered all but $500 under comprehensive. Now when they call trying to sell me a new vehicle, I tell them that I will never but a vehicle from them again, because of the roof. When I take the vehicle in for service, they no longer bother trying to sell me a new vehicle, unless there is a new salesman.
