Consumer Description
I WAS DRIVING AND THE ENGINE STARTED MAKING A CLICK CLICK NOISE. IT SOUNDED TERRIBLE LIKE THERE WERE ROCKS RATTLING AROUND AT THE BOTTOM OF THE ENGINE AND LOST POWER. THE VEHICLE BROKE DOWN AND I HAD TO FIND A TO AND RENTAL CAR TO GET HOME. HYUNDAI SERVICE SAID I NEED A NEW ENGINE, BECAUSE THE ENTIRE ENGINE NEEDED REPLACED. I KNOW THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL RECALLS ON THE HYUNDAI ENGINES AND I CALLED THE HYUNDAI CUSTOMER SERVICE AND FLAT OUT TOLD ME THAT MY NGINE WAS OUTSIDE OF THE WARRANTY AND THEREFORE THEY COULD NOT HELP. I AM NOT READY TO HAVE TO GET A NEW VEHICLE, SPECIALLY IN THIS COVID SITUATION. I HAD A SIMILAR ISSUE WITH A 2003 TUSCON SANTA FE...THIS ENGINE FAILURE ISSUE IS A SCAM.
