Consumer Description

I have a Hyundai Tuscon 2017 ECO and I am experiencing the same engine symptoms as others involved in recalls. The car is only 5 years old but I have noticed that it has stuttery starts from stops and when just trying to accelerate. The engine would often jerk while driving. The vehicle is at 111,000 miles and now the engine is knocking and has very weak take off to the point it’s not drivable. This poor take off has almost caused me to get hit multiple times. There is no telling when it would happen. After the knocking started I spoke with a mechanic who said that the engines burn oil quickly which I have never been told in the past five years. If this was the cause I would expect the manufacturer to inform the owners that is an issue. No one in the past 5 years worth of oil changes (including many at the dealership) mentioned this until the engine needs replaced. I would expect a engine to last longer then 5 years and 111,000 miles before giving out.
