Wait™ for better battery tech that is more cost effective. At this point it has been a decade or two of hearing that better than lithium ion batteries are just around the corner, probably even longer than I've been alive

useless SC and Canada HQ. They didn't even bother to validate whether the battery is actually damaged

The battery wasn't damaged, the car still drives, why the F u bring it to the dealership & put ur neck on the chopping board?

As for the hole, just seal it with whatever cloth tape.

I saw that video just now. I think the dealership is in cahoots with insurance company. The car after write off can be purchased again with salvage/ recuild title & resold again. These buggers would probably just replace the damaged battery cover only.

The guy who owned the car previously needs to pay 50% more insurance premium on his next new car.

The owner should have brought the case with Hyundai Canada/ Korea and not just the dealership/ insurance company as they are threatening the car owner with explosive battery due to damage that would not be covered by warranty.

There is hanky panky going on here.

if they buy TESLA, then will have no such issue...

Because the car is still in warranty. And the owner is doing it by the book by sending it back to SC to check it out. Mana tau the chibai SC simply told the customer the car is fire hazard because there is visible gap between the battery module and protective plate.

sure, after that the dealership and insurance told him his car is tagged as battery liability, if it burst into fire and damage surrounding structures and cars etc he'll be liable for the losses not from the insurance, so even the car still drives do you wanna take that risk?

still got another case direct contact with hyundai hq, kena juga 50k cad bill lol

Ya cos Tesla will ask them wait till car owner pass over Baru dapat slot for appointment .

It might also happen with TESLA or any other EV brand for that matter. Because we do not know how far the battery warranty would cover. Like lets say there is a defect with the battery that allowed water to intrude the battery pack causing corrosion. The car dies or all of its electronics shorted out because of it. And you did not drive on flooded roads. But your warranty is denied because they say you drove through flood waters. Then how?

Its exactly like phones that does not have IP protection. But the board still got water damaged. And when manufacturer open up the phone, the sticker says water has entered into phone. But the most likely scenario is sweat in pants pockets entered in phone from high humidity when placed inside pocket.

Yeah no. I'm not gonna be buying an ev car in the next few years. I want to see the first batch of evs in Malaysia being tested in real world settings like repair cost, accidents and replacement cost.

None of us know this.

If there was, then have to see what type of damage the other car had. This one kind of well documented that the owner tried to evade something and still ran over it. From the picture it looked like he ran on a curb. Doesn't even look bad at all and result are only deeper level 7 scratches..

if tesla they will do free repair ya...
if not, can complaint directly to Elon Musk in X.
Elon will take care it.

there will be no accident if everyone use tesla

The battery is the single most expensive part in an EV unfortunately. But seeing this news that it costs even more than a new car after a year is really troubling.

Its totally different to hybrids however. The early gen Toyota hybrids used to cost 5 figures to replace the battery. Today it cost 4 figures. But that took a long time to reach that level of price.

You confirm or not? Maybe the T&C is only in America. I did not notice them offering this in Europe or CN also. Whats more Asia.

which car company boss will entertain normal people like us? except Tesla/Elon

oredci say... EV is scam...

Huh.... tak masuk akal... means when buy car we actually buy the batteri while everything else is consider free? Feels so scummy.

Exactly.

Canadians.

The main point from this bideo I get is…. Don’t care what happened or the cause, but battery replacement cost as much as the car itself ?

Is this normal for other EV ? How about ice engines.. hmmm

clearly inexperienced strawberry gen

no worries. he most probably still driving myvi.

BMW subscriptions based has backfired big time until they OTA enable those feature for all owner

https://www.theverge.com/2023/9/7/23863258/...icrotransaction

why the invoice say $6649 and the become $56649

not enough space to fill the number on the column.

quickly ev owner!
wrap under your car make sure its sparkling shine

huh? like that also can? lol

video also say quoted from body shop looks like trying to scam the owner with that quote..always something odd with story like these..but still looks like hyundai canada also tidak apa attitude and things like this will hurt them badly in sales

It is not uncommon to hear people needing to pay 5 figures for replacing brand new engines even if the car is a year old. For example SC says customer negligence like not changing engine oil caused the engine failure that voids warranty. Then you get a quote for a new engine that costs 5 figures. Sometimes even replacing just a damaged turbo costs 5 figures. Then you have a choice like the guy to write off the car as un economical to repair.

But in US/ Can, they have salvage title. Crashed cars can actually be bought, repaired and driven. I think locally we also have same thing, but its called differently. You probably heard how body repair workshop quotes very high price to repair body work and insurance rejects and instead made you claim total loss. Then these cars are bought by body shop from insurance company and repaired to be sold again. I think in /K got people found their crashed cars that was written off on the road again months or years later.

After watching the video, then i realised it is just Canadian racist to asian/yellow.

Kyle probably Malaysia born.

watched alot videos they buy these salvage titled cars repair them

in comment some say the battery is $12K not 57k lol..looks more and more like the dealer simply tembak like explode all that, then body shop and insoran all together pulling a scam on the guy lol

fix the car for 6.6k and resold it again lol

Only buy EV when B40 can afford it, then no need to worry about such issue. It will be at Redmi price and if the worst happens, buang jer.

That's what we heard and then they use lithium for ev lol

If news like this happens in malaysia, you can kiss ev market goodbye.

"Nota said the heated seats subscription fell under the automaker’s broader experiments with microtransactions — just not a very successful one.

Still, subscriptions are growing increasingly popular in the automotive space. Companies are experimenting with new services for monthly or yearly fees, entranced by the possibilities for over-the-air software updates to open up new ways to get money out of their customers. "

they will keep trying until they hit the jackpot
