Consumer Description
ON NOVEMBER 15, 2020 MY 2013 HYUNDAI SONTA JUST QUIT ON ME WHILE ON THE INTERSTATE IN GEORGIA. I GOT IT TOWED TO SUPERIOR HYUNDAI IN ANNISTON, AL AND THAT'S WHERE THEY TOLD ME I HAD A OPEN RECALL ON MY ENGINE AND THAT'S WHAT MADE MY CAR QUIT ON ME AND I WAS GONNA NEED A NEW ENGINE, BUT SINCE HAVING A SALVAGE TITLE THEY HAD TO SEND IT UP TO THE WARRANTY DEPARTMENT, 2 WEEKS LATER THEY COME BACK AND SAID MY CLAIM WAS DENIED BC OF HAVING A SALVAGE TITLE. I FEEL I HAVE DONE MY PART BY KEEPING THE UP KEEP OF MY CAR UP SO SOMETHING LIKE THIS WOULDN'T HAPPEN, BUT SOMETHING THAT WAS OUT OF MY HANDS HAPPEN I HAVE TO BUY A WHOLE NEW ENGINE ALL BC OF WHAT MY TITLE SAYS. I CAN UNDERSTAND IF I DIDN'T DO THE UP KEEP OF MY CAR BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY IT SHOULDN'T FALL ON ME ALL BC OF WHAT MY TITLE SAYS. I HAVE OWED THAT CAR SINCE APIRL 2016 AND HAVEN'T HAD ANY PROBLEMS TIL NOW ON THIS CAR.
