NHTSA Complaint #11375896 — 2013 HYUNDAI TUCSON

MY ENGINE LOST POWER AND STARTED TO KNOCK. CONTACTED HYUNDAI USA TO BE TOLD TO BRING MY CAR IN FOR A DIAGNOSIS. I HAD MY CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP(ADVANTAGE HYUNDAI). THEY CALLED TO TELL ME "WHY IS MY CAR THERE"?? IN UTTER SHOCK I MENTIONED THAT I HAD CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO ARRANGE FOR ARRIVAL AND HAVE IT DIAGNOSED. THEN WAS MENTIONED A FEE, WHICH WASN'T MENTIONED FROM ANYONE PRIOR TO HAVING MY CAR TOWED. I HAD UPDATED MY REF # FROM HYUNDAI USA ONLY TO SPEAK WITH SOMEONE TELLING ME THAT BECAUSE THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY HE CANT HELP. WHY DID IT TAKE OPENING A CASE WITH HYUNDAI, UPDATING THE CASE WITH INFO, HAVING MY CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP(SUGGESTED BY HYUNDAI USA) TO BE TOLD THERE NOTHING THEY CAN DO?? MY CAR IS IN GREAT SHAPE WITH 81K. WHY ARE THESE ENGINES FAILING?? AND WHY ARE THE CONSUMERS VICTIMS TO INFERIOR PRODUCT?? BTW HYUNDAI CONSUMER AFFAIRS DON"T HELP THE CONSUMER. IT'S MORE OF HYUNDAI EXPLAINING THERE WARRANTY.
