Consumer Description
Excessive oil consumption. Consuming 2 qts of oil every 1000 miles. Has been to the dealership 8 times in the last 15 months. 2 spark plugs from the same cylinder have failed leaving me stranded. My dealership and Hyundai Consumer Affairs continue to give me the run around with oil consumption tests and combustion chamber cleanings rather than admit this is a faulty engine. The first spark plug failed at 25k miles and the second one from the exact same cylinder failed 7k after. Blue smoke comes out of the exhaust frequently on engine start up which I have communicated this several time proving that their fixes aren't preventing the oil from leaking inside the combustion chamber. But they will insist that that I have to continue oil consumption tests, despite having 8 done on the car already. I do not feel safe driving this vehicle knowing that the engine can fail at me at anytime on the road
