Andrew C. v. Hyundai Motor America

Los Angeles County

Our client, Andrew C., leased a Hyundai Genesis as a reward to himself after years of hard work.  Unfortunately, Andrew’s vehicle developed a constant and frustrating oil consumption problem wherein the vehicle would consume oil in between oil changes.  Hyundai repeatedly told Andrew there was nothing wrong with his car, but he was sorely disappointed that he could not enjoy the vehicle in the way it was intended because of the constant oil consumption.  We represented Andrew Choi at trial in Los Angeles Superior Court and were able to obtain a significant verdict in his favor, and the jury awarded him even more than what he had paid for the vehicle.  Also, the Court found later that Hyundai was responsible for paying Andrew’s attorney’s fees and costs.
