Consumer Description

MY ENGINE WAS FINE AND I'VE KEPT UP WITH ALL OF MY OIL CHANGES AND EVERYTHING. I WANT TO GO GET SOME RECALLS FIXED ON MY CAR AND AFTERWARDS NOW I NEED A NEW ENGINE BECAUSE MY ENGINE IS TAPPING. A HYUNDAI OF SILSBEE TEXAS TELLS ME THAT I NEED TO GIVE THEM $300 AND THEY WILL DIAGNOSE IT AND THEN LET ME KNOW IF THE RECALLS AFFECTED MY ENGINE.WHEN I BROUGHT MY CAR IN THERE WAS NO PROBLEMS WITH MY ENGINE. I'M A SINGLE MOM AND I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO GIVE HYUNDAI TO TRY TO DIAGNOSE MY VEHICLE. *TR
