Is it bad to have too much of a good thing? The answer is "yes", especially when it comes to the futuristic-looking Hyundai Staria. Apparently, the MPV’s cool expansive glasshouse tends to break whenever users close its doors.

According to Korea IT Times, the “panoramic windows” on the Staria Tourer model’s second-row would break from the impact of closing its rear sliding doors. Furthermore, it is said that this isn’t a rare or isolated case with 2000 such cases recorded.  

This problem comes just a month after the Staria made its debut in South Korea. However, it is already believed that the problem is related to the “excessive size of the window”.

Hyundai’s response has been swift, with the company already contacting customers and assisting them in replacing the windows and remedying the problem.

Besides its eye-catching design, the Staria’s huge windows are one of its design hallmarks. According to Hyundai, the MPV’s streamlined glasshouse was inspired by the traditional Korean architectural style known as hanok.

Perhaps Hyundai's designers bit off a bit more than they can chew. With the Staria slated for export to selected markets from the second half of this year, let's hope that such issues will be ironed out.
