Consumer Description
The car began stalling while driving. Took to the Hyundai Dealer in Idaho Falls, ID and they changed spark plugs, did not repair the car, the coils, did not repair the car. Next, the car began vibrating and underpowered with the check engine light flashing. Made it to the dealership only to find out the motor suffered internal failure and is irreparable. This fits the exact description of the engine recalls that have impacted the other Veloster models. My car has been serviced regularly, with records of oil changes, tire rotations, and is currently in immaculate condition. The dealership has indicated that it will cost $8,000 to put in an engine from the salvage yard. I am certain that I am victim to the faulty engine.
