Consumer Description

I was driving back home from work.When I began to notice a knocking sound coming from my engine. The car suddenly began to shake and stall, not allowing me to accelerate properly. Right after that the car completely shut off and I had to push it to the side of the road. About a month later I received a notice from Hyundai in which they stated the vehicle had a recall due to failing connecting rod bearing. I contacted my mechanic on what this may caused, and without me going into full detail about my incident he mentioned everything that I went through. I then schedule an appointment at my local Hyundai delearship for the KSDS install, and hoping for a fix under the warranty guidelines given in the notice. Today I received a message notifying me that they would not be fixing the car under the recall notice.
