Consumer Description
The vehicle's engine light has been coming on for the past 3 years(2020-2023). I had multiple engine servicing checks done at the Hyundai dealership, but the dealership continued to say that there was nothing wrong with the car until this year 2023. Starting 2023 when I would drive, the engine oil light started flashing on and off and the car kept cutting off at stops AND while driving, which can cause accidents leading to death. In 2023 I started noticing that the oil kept being low, but it did not have an oil leak, it was like the oil was vanishing. Now the same Hyundia dealership claims that reason the oil light flashes on is because engine oil is going into the engine which can cause a fire to the car resulting in death. There are also a multiple lawsuits about Hyundai engines catching on fire and oil going into the engine but the dealership is claiming that it's not my particular model which I do not believe! At this point I am fearful to drive the car because it will definitely stop while in drive and stop in traffic and I'm afraid of having an accident and someone dying in the car or the car Catching Fire in my driveway or garage. PLEASE HELP these companies should not get away with this knowing MANY of there models have oil/Engine issues!!
