Consumer Description

Shortly after I purchased car (April2021) from JD Byryder in Peoria,Il. the car was not running right. Motor cutting out loss of powwr. I have car shield and took the vehicle to Hyunadi dealer in Peoria,Il. and also to a dealer in Dayton,Oh. was verified that the vehicle has a bad turbo. Car shield refusing to fix the car without engine being torn completly down, Hyundai dealers refused to help. Now the car is burning oil and no sign of where the oil is going. I bought this car in good faith was told the motor was under recall but nobody wants to take ownership and fix it under the recall.
