NHTSA Complaint #11067202 — 2011 HYUNDAI SONATA HYBRID

MY CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED SONATA HYBRID WAS NOT UNDER THE CLASS ACTION RECALL BUT HAS TWICE NOW HAD THE SAME ENGINE FAILURE AS THE SONATAS THAT HAVE BEEN RECALLED. FIRST ENGINE FAILURE- CAR WAS AT DEALER FROM NOV 2015 TO JAN 2016 AND ENGINE WAS REBUILT. SECOND ENGINE FAILURE, RELATED ENGINE ISSUE- DEC 2017 TO CURRENT TIME. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS, CAR STALLED WHILE DRIVING ON A MAJOR STATE ROAD AND ENTIRE SYSTEM SEIZED UP, COULD NOT EVEN GO INTO NEUTRAL. SECOND TIME, OIL SPATTERED ALL OVER ENGINE AND OIL LIGHT CAME ON WHILE ON STATE HIGHWAY- MAJOR LEAK ON ENGINE MOUNT. FIRST REPAIR INDICATED THE SAME PARTICLES IN ENGINE THAT CAUSED ENGINE TO SEIZE AS THE RECALLED SONATAS THOUGH MY VIN WAS/IS NOT INCLUDED IN CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT NOR UNDER THAT OFFICIAL RECALL. CAR STILL NOT REPAIRED AFTER 2 MONTHS AT DEALER THIS SECOND TIME. HAVE GONE BACK AND FORTH WITH HYUNDAI MOTOR REGIONAL CUSTOMER COMPLAINT, LOCAL DEALER AND WARRANTY COMPANY FOR LAST 2 MONTHS WITH NO RESOLUTION AND STILL NO CAR.
