NHTSA Complaint #11402802 — 2014 HYUNDAI ELANTRA

MY 2014 HYUNDIA ELANTRA SPORT 2.0L ENGINE THREW A ROD WITH ONLY 101300 MILES. THE CAR HAD A LOT OF VALUE BECAUSE IT WAS RUNNING GREAT AND WAS IN BETTER THAN GOOD CONDITION UNTIL NOW. TO REPLACE THE ENGINE WAS GOING TO COST BETWEEN $8K TO $10K. READING ON THE INTERNET HYUNDIA 2.0L ENGINES ARE EXPERIENCING A LOT OF ENGINE FAILURES LIKE THIS. THE MECHANIC SHOP WHERE I TOOK IT CALLED TWO HYUNDI-KIA DEALERSHIP TO SEE IF MY ELANTRA ENGINE WAS UNDER HYUNDIA RECALL, BOTH SAID IT WASN'T. NOW I AM FORCED TO LOOK FOR A NEW CAR AND FIGURE OUT HOW TO RECOUP SOME LOSS FROM MY ELTANTRA. IN THE FUTURE I WILL NEVER CONSIDER ANOTHER HYUNDIA-KIA CAR BECAUSE OF ENGINE ISSUES.
