Consumer Description

SEPTEMBER 2020 THE CAR WOULD NOT START AFTER SITTING FOR AWHILE, I RECENTLY HAD REPLACED THE BATTERY. ONCE I GOT THE CAR TO START, WHEN. I SLOWED THE CAR CUT OFF WHILE I WAS ON A BUSY STREET, IT'S NOT THE ALTERNATOR EVERYTHING WAS STILL ON IN THE CAR. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED BEFORE THE CAR CUT OFF. GOT STARTED AGAIN, WAS ABLE TO DRIVE. I'VE REPLACED FUEL PUMP, CAM SHAFT SENSORS, NEW BATTERY. ANY TIME I DRIVE IT THE CAR CUTS OUT WHEN I AM AT A STOP LIGHT, THE CAR LOSES POWER WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, AND HAVE TO CHANGE THE OIL MORE OFTEN THAN 3000 MILES. I FIND THAT I HAVE TO TOP MY OIL MONTHLY. MY CHECK ENGINE COMES ON RANDOMLY AND GOES OFF RANDOMLY. WHEN I TOOK THE CAR TO HYUNDAI REGARDING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, THEY STATED IT WAS A SENSOR ISSUE.
