Consumer Description

Had the car at the dealership one month ago for recall repairs. They said it was two quarts of oil low. First time that has been so low. Two days ago, driving home when I start hearing weird intermittent engine noise. Decide to drive to dealership. Almost made it when engine noise became very loud. Pulled over and had it towed to dealership. Engine failure. While waiting for tow, checked oil after it cooled - no oil on dipstick at all. No warning lights on dash. I shut engine off quickly after it was obviously about to fail, noise got louder. Most all maintenance done at dealership. 88k miles. 2017 Hyundai sonata hybrid. Dealership told me they have TWENTY cars with similiar problem on the lot right now
