I asked this question in another Hyundai forum and was hoping for some insight from the users here.
I just picked up our new Calligraphy last week and have a strange question I'd like to get feedback on. Calligraphy owners, when you look at your jack storage compartment under the rear storage area, do you have a cover hiding the jack? My new car does not have a cover. When you lift the floor access panel you immediately see the jack. I noticed this at the dealer before buying the car. I looked at 2 limiteds and 2 SEL's on their lot and they all have covers over the jack. The compartment holding the jack has 2 areas at the bottom that act as hinges for the cover and 2 areas at the top for latches. The Calligraphy (and I verified this with 1 other on the lot) jack compartment does not have these areas for the hinge and latch.
Now it makes no sense to me that their top end trim shows you a jack as soon as you lift the floor access panel while the lower trim models have a cover so nothing can slide into the jack compartment. I called the Hyundai national help line and talked to 3 different clueless CSR's. I currently have a ticket but don't expect anything. My dealer is also dumbfounded. He offered a suggestion that maybe the factory was short on parts during buildup, but that doesn't make sense. The actual holding compartment is physically different.
If you would please respond with your year and trim and whether or not you have a jack cover!
