NHTSA Complaint #11292486 — 2012 HYUNDAI TUCSON

MY CAR HAS HAD A KNOCKING NOISE AND WHEN I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP IN MARCH 2019 THEY TOLD ME THAT THIS WAS DUE TO A RECENT RECALL THAT CAME OUT FOR THE OIL PAN IS LEAKING AND TOLD ME TO WAIT UNTIL THEY HAD A FIX FOR IT SO I WAITED BROUGHT MY CAR IN FOR THE RECALL. THEY PERFORMED THE RECALL IT DID NOT FIX THE KNOCKING NOISE I CALLED CORPORATE TO FILE A CLAIM THEY HAD ME RETURN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND RUN DIAGNOSTICS IN DETERMINING THE DIAGNOSTICS I AM IN NEED OF A NEW ENGINE HOWEVER THEY ONLY WANT TO PAY 2000 OF THE $3000 TO $6000 IT'S GOING TO COST TO REPLACE THE SHORT BLOCK ENGINE. THEY ALSO STATED THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY CURRENT ENGINE NOR DO THEY KNOW WHY IT FAILED AND THEY ALSO DON'T KNOW WHY MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NEVER CAME ON. THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP ALSO TOLD ME IT WAS FINE TO CONTINUE DRIVING THE VEHICLE.
