Consumer Description
I bought a 2017 Hyundai Sante Fe Limited trim with the 3.3 L 6 cylinder on Nov 2, 2022. The car was running perfect until Feb 28, 2023, when while driving the engine started knocking and the check engine light came on. This happened instantly. I had it towed to a mechanic where it was discovered that the oil pan and oil filter were covered in metal shavings. The engine failed at 97,000 miles. The code that is being read is “P0014 Exhuast Camshaft position timing - over advanced. This is the same exact thing that is happening with earlier and Hyundai and Kia engines, but there aren’t any recalls, campaigns, or class action law suits open for my specific vehicle, so the Hyundai dealership that I am bought it from are pretty much telling me too bad too sad, you didn’t buy the extended warranty. Hyundai has a significantly documented issues that are exactly the same problems and seem to only be addressing the older vehicles with the same exact issues. This is almost criminal of Hyundai, because even though corporate and their dealerships are aware of these issues and acting like they are sympathizing, they are offering absolutely no help to their customers for their faulty engines.
