NHTSA Complaint #11490780 — 2014 HYUNDAI SANTA FE

The engine began making a strange noise last week. We brought it to the dealer and they reported we had internal engine failure. We took it to another service center for a second opinion and the diagnosis was confirmed. We have been told we need a new engine or an engine rebuild. The vehicle has 110K miles and received routine maintenance since we purchased it in 2014. The vehicle did not produce a check engine light or any other visible signs of engine failure. The only symptom is the engine noise. The vehicle is not safe since it is on the verge of failure at any moment. Hyundai has not offered to help pay for engine repair services. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request.
