I can harldy believe it. My brand new, cute little car will have 100,000 miles on it by Friday. Made her an appointment to go to the dealership before she rolls over.
What do I need to make sure they check while she's in there? I already have a list of non-major glitches they're going to have to fix. EX: Pass side auto door lock doesn't work, low fuel sending unit needs replaced, adjust headlights, I'm having them check the brakes, starter (just to be sure it's all ok).
Anything else? Thanks Ahead!!

Maybe have them check the shocks to make sure they're not leaking.
How in the world have you managed to put 100,000 miles on a 2001 already??!? That's a lot of driving!
If your timing belt has been changed already (at about 60,000 miles like Hyundai recommends, then it should be fine, but it never hurts to have it changed early.

I can belive it. She took a 11 hour trip up from Arkansas just to come to my Car Meet / Going Away Party. Now THAT'S dedication.

Yeah, I'm ummm dedicated!! hahaha
wink
Had the timing belt done @ 80,000 (August) before the Califonia trip, had the alternator checked when the battery went dead (few weeks ago).
Had my appointment Friday. NOW have a complaint w/ my question. They had to order me an actuator for the pass side door lock, and a low fuel sending unit. They say these things are NOT covered under my Hyundai Extended Warranty??!!! What the HELL would it cover? And why the hell doesn't it cover @ least the damn door lock? Sorry Just kinda upset... and I need brakes... any sugg there? I've got a guy that'll put em on cheap enough, just need the pads (decent product w/o the high price). Sugg Please.

Hmm... Mine is a second owner and the same part went out. They covered mine.
