My 2008 Accent radio was working great last week. We had some bad snow this weekend. I went to turn on the radio on Monday and the radio was staticy and sounded like the speaker in the back was not working properly (all scratchy and staticy). The radio will work for a few minutes and then totally go dead - then it will be staticy. I took it in the Hyundai dealer and they said it was an "inner malfunction" and had to be replaced. Unfortunately they said it was not covered under warranty and would cost $700 to replace. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Try checking the coax antenna wire coming out of the back of the radio. The antenna wire use to plug in, and I've had problems with them viberating out.

check the main fuse in the engine bay there is 2 one is 80amps check that one. as for the starer the solinoid is stuck if you have to hit it to get it to work.
Was the automatic belt tensioner replaced or even checked? if if has lost tension then the belt is loose and slip[d under a load, which you hear as a screeching noise.
after u had it jumped u drove it to the zone so the alternator was workin--it seems like the regulator is not functionin to charge batt--theres somethin goin on in the electrics thats frying ur reg these new cars r very complex--do a scan to see any bad codes and a harness wire chec may be helpful
Is it still under warranty? Could be! Take it into Hyundai Service Center, have it checked/ diagnosed. At least the wiring/connections can be checked to see if they are the problem.. then again, the problem is intermittent, and those are the most difficult to run down Sometimes a "shock" or "wiggle" test reveals the cause.
Sounds like an antitheft problem I would start with the antitheft system. Usually when you only have one key all keys have to be programmed together even the original. When you have more than one it is easy to program additional keys.
You either need to charge the battery, or you've got a bad battery. It's easy to power lights and radios, but turning an engine over, especially in cold weather, takes a lot of cold cranking amps (in other words, a fully charged and good battery.).
you said the car is new, with waranty? i would take it back to dealer, chk. engine light on they can scan it find out what the problem is. sense its new should be no other codes in computer, easy fix for dealer. and piece of mind for you.
