Consumer Description

LAST WEEK I WAS DRIVING DOWN AN BUSY STREET WHEN SUDDENLY MY 2011 HYUNDAI SONATA STALLED! THANKFULLY I WAS ABLE TO GET MY VEHICLE OUT OF THE ROAD JUST IN TIME OR ELSE I COULD'VE BEEN IN A LIFE THREATENING ACCIDENT. THE NEXT DAY I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO A MECHANIC WHO THEN EXPLAINED TO ME I WOULD NEED AN ENTIRE NEW MOTOR. PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT I KEEP UP WITH UP THE MAINTENANCE ON MY VEHICLE AND I HAVEN'T HAD ANY OTHER ISSUES UNTIL NOW! I THEN BEGAN TO DO RESEARCH ON POSSIBLE RECALLS AND THERE WAS A RECALL IN 2015 FOR MY EXACT CAR YEAR AND MODEL FOR ENGINE STALLING! I NEED THIS ISSUE RESOLVED ASAP!
