Consumer Description
Hello, I was instructed to reach out regarding a recall in my vehicle that is not being taken care of. I lease a 2020 Hyundai Kona. About 5 months ago my vehicle started making an odd noise from the engine. It then started stalling, completely turning off while I was driving Hello, I was instructed to reach out regarding a recall in my vehicle that is not being taken care of. I lease a 2020 Hyundai Kona. About 5 months ago my vehicle started making an odd noise from the engine. It then started stalling, completely turning off while I was in the middle of the road, driving it. I reached out to my Hyundai dealership who had me bring it in 3 times to check the oil. They told me that there was nothing they could do. I have since received a letter stating there is a recall on my vehicle but there is no remedy in place and they do not have courtesy cars. So I am stuck making payments on a leased vehicle that is completely unsafe to drive. I am unsure where to go from here. I look forward to your response. Thank you.
