Consumer Description
I HAVE A 2013 HYUNDAI TUSCON THAT IS MY PRIMARY CAR. I WAS DRIVING ON A RURAL ROAD GOING MAYBE 45 MPH TOPS AND MY ENGINE AND OIL LIGHT CAME ON AND WHEN RIGHT BACK OFF. THEY DID NOT STAY ON BUT IT SEEMED MY VEHICLE WAS LOSING POWER. AS I PULLED UP TO A STOP SIGN, MY CAR JUST SHUT OFF. A FEW DAYS LATER I NOTICED A KNOCK UNDER THE HOOD. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD MY MOTOR NEEDED REPLACED. THEY CHANGED THE OIL AND IT WAS ONLY TURNED ON TO BE MOVED AT THE DEALERSHIP SO IT COULD BE TOWED HOME. MY WARRANTY IS REFUSING TO PAY TO REPLACE MY MOTOR AND I WASN'T GOING TO HAVE IT SIT IN A PARKING LOT MILES AWAY FROM MY HOUSE. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS BACK IN MY POSSESSION, I CHECKED THE OIL DIP STICK AND IT WAS GLITTERY. THIS TELLS ME THAT SOMETHING INTERNALLY IS WRONG DUE TO METAL SHAVINGS IN MY OIL. AFTER DOING RESEARCH ON MY VEHICLE, I'VE COME TO FIND MANY COMPLAINS HAVE BEEN FILED AGAINST HYUNDAI 2.4L MOTORS.
