NHTSA Complaint #11120590 — 2011 HYUNDAI VERACRUZ

WHILE I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE, THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON AND QUICKLY I LOST POWER AND MY ABILITY TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE. I WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TOWED. THE ALTERNATOR WAS REPLACE AND CAR WAS DRIVING FINE. 2 WEEKS LATER, THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME BACK ON. I INSPECTED THE ALTERNATOR AND COULD SEE OIL VISIBLE ON THE ALTERNATOR. I DID SOME QUICK RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR A VALVE GASKET LEAK ONTO THE ALTERNATOR ON MY 2011 HYUNDAI VERACRUZ, THAT HAD BEEN FIXED IN 2014. NOW HAVING THE SAME EXACT ISSUE. HYUNDAI OF CHANTILLY, VA CONFIRMED, BUT WILL NOT COVER CHARGES TO REPAIR. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, AS I WAS DRIVING WITH MY 2 YEAR OLD TWINS WHEN THE CAR SHUT DOWN.
