Consumer Description
HYUNDAI TUCSON 2.0L (NU GDI) IS LEAKING ENGINE OIL BETWEEN ENGINE AND TRANSMISION. VEHICLE PREVIOUSLY HAD THE SAME CONDITION AND IT WAS SENT TO DEALERSHIP AROUND NOVEMBER 2019, THEY REMOVED THE TRANSMISSION AND INSTALLED A NEW CRANKSHAFT OIL SEAL. PREVIOUS OIL CHANGE MAINTENTANCE WAS DONE BY A HYUNDAI DEALER AND THEY DIDN'T NOTIFY THE ISSUE. NOW WHEN I CHECKED THE ENGINE AND TOUCHED THE AREA, I GOT ENGINE OIL. NOW I WILL CHECK HOW I CAN SEND THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE I'M HAVING ISSUES WITH THE WARRANTY OF THE CAR BECAUSE IF I GO TO ANOTHER HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP AND THEY CHECK THAT THE CAR WASN'T BOUGHT WITH THEM, THEY GIME ME A EXTREMELLY LONG DATE TO CHECK THE CAR AFTER THAT THEY WON'T FIX. ALSO THEY DON'T LIKE TO GET WARRANTY CLAIMS OR RECALLS DURING WEEKENDS. AND TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE THE DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW AND COMPLETED THE WARRANTY CLAIM (CRANKSHAFT SEAL) HAS CHANGED THE OWNERSHIP AND THEY SAY THAT THE CAR RECORDS DOESN'T APPEAR IN THEIR SYSTEMS. I WOULD NEVER BUY ANOTHER CAR FROM THIS COMPANY AGAIN.
