FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

FLEMINGTON HYUNDAI ‘RESCUES’ TOYOTA OWNER

FLEMINGTON, NJ – Local Hunterdon County resident Kevin Haggerty has been in dire straights with his 2007 Toyota Avalon for several months. His near catastrophic accident in December due to the gas pedal sticking could have taken his life. Nobody has been able to locate or fix the problem which first surfaced about five months earlier. It has been seen by his servicing dealer as well as local mechanics to no avail. Though his

servicing dealer feels the problem is now solved, Mr. Haggerty has been very uncomfortable driving a vehicle that he does not trust to be safe.

The owners of Flemington Hyundai, Leonard and Richard Datello, read the story about the local resident who is also a fireman with the Quakertown Fire Company. They decided to do something to remedy the situation for Mr. Haggerty, and they contacted him. “Nobody should be made to drive a vehicle they feel is unsafe,” said Leonard. With major recalls and a halt in both production and sales of most Toyota models, it appears that it will be some time before a solution will be available for Toyota owners and dealers.

The Datellos invited Kevin Haggerty to come to Flemington Hyundai on Friday, February 5, 2010 at 10:30 am where they will personally give Mr. Haggerty a brand new Hyundai Sonata, free of charge, and see to it that his Toyota is ‘retired’. Rich Datello explains, “We want to help out a local resident in need with a vehicle that’s rated among the safest on the road. Hyundai is the top ranked non-luxury brand by J.D. Power and Associates 2009 Initial Quality Study, beating out Toyota, Honda, Ford, Chevy and others.” He continues, “The Genesis is North America’s 2009 Car of The Year, and by  EPA standards, Hyundai is the most fuel efficient brand across the board.” Additionally, Flemington Hyundai will make a $50.00 donation to Mr. Haggerty’s firehouse for every vehicle purchased during the month of February.
