Consumer Description

THE OIL LEAK THAT HAS PREVIOUSLY BEEN REPORTED CAUSED THE ENGINE TO RUN LOW ON OIL. SINCE THERE IS A DRIP PAN UNDER THE ENGINE A CONSUMER WOULD HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING THAT THEIR ENGINE WAS SEVERELY LEAKING. IF THERE IS NO OIL IN YOUR PARKING SPOT AND NO SIGN OF THE CAR SMOKING A NORMAL PERSON WOULD NOT CHECK THE OIL WITH EVERY TANK OF GAS. THIS OIL LEAK CAUSED MY ALTERNATOR TO FAIL IN TRAFFIC, AND SINCE THE ENGINE RAN LOW ON OIL I HAD A CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE ( THREW A ROD) AT 126K. THE OIL LEAK CAUSES LONG-TERM DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE THAT HYUNDAI REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE.
