NHTSA Complaint #11528115 — 2017 HYUNDAI SANTA FE

2023 Hyundai Santa Fe with the 3.3L Lambda engine. At 99,625 miles, while driving at highway speed, the engine suddenly sputtered with partial loss of power and a loud clicking/banging noise coming from the engine compartment. No warning lights/check engine lights/oil lights. Drove one mile and parked it in the driveway. Had it towed same day to dealer and after it was inspected it and found to have metal shavings in the oil pan and a catastrophic engine failure (again, NO warning lights on the dash!). Proved to the dealer that all maintenance and oil changes were performed correctly and within prescribed time periods/mileage. Dealer will replace the engine with a Hyundai remanufactured -- not new -- engine under warranty but this "new" engine will only be warrantied for 375 miles which the balance of the original 10 yr/100,000 mile warranty.
