NHTSA Complaint #10825215 — 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA

2013 SONATA STARTED MAKING KNOCKING NOISE FROM ENGINE. THE NEXT DAY, TRIED DRIVING IT TO GO TO THE HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP. WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY, KNOCKING NOISE GETS WORSE, CAR STALLS ON FREEWAY. NO WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON. HAD TO COAST OVER TO RIGHT SHOULDER ON FREEWAY. ENGINE SIEZED. THERE ARE RECALLS ON 2011 AND 2012 SONATA ENGINES FOR ENGINE DEFECT MADE IN MANUFACTURING PLANT. ALTHOUGH MY CAR WAS A 2013 IT DID EXACTLY WHAT OTHERS COMPLAINED ABOUT WITH THERE SONATA'S. I BELIEVE MY 2013 SONATA HAD AN ENGINE DEFECT. I HAVE A PICTURE OF METAL FRAGMENTS IN THE OIL PAN, WHICH CAUSED THE ENGINE TO SIEZE AND IS THE REASON FOR THE RECALL ON 2011 AND 2012 SONATAS.
