NHTSA Complaint #11467802 — 2014 HYUNDAI SANTA FE

We were not advised that the vehicle was burning oil when serviced and there were no signs of leakage in the garage where kept. On an extended road trip the engine began to make a rattling noise that got worse as we drove. I stopped at an automotive store and checked the oil just to be surprised that no oil was in the engine. Again, no external damage or leaks. I serviced the vehicle with oil and continued driving home. On the interstate in traffic the vehicle stalled and I coasted the vehicle to the side of the road. The engine would not turn over and we had to be towed. Hyundai says they don't have parts to fix the vehicle, but that when they do it will cost $14,000 to replace the engine. This engine model needs to be put on re-call just like the other engines that Hyundai has been penalized for bad and unsafe engineering.
