Consumer Description

Noticed a slight loss of power on a 4 hour road trip. When we stopped for gas the vehicle was shaking at lower rpm and the engine light came on at that point. I took it to a mechanic within 45mins of noticing the issue and it was scanned and a few other tests. Mechanic said cylinder 6 was misfiring, spark plug was covered in oil and compression test showed less than 20 psi. He said we were lucky to make it into town like that and we did not get stranded as there is poor service where we were. I had to get the vehicle towed approx 300km and sort out rides for my family along with a vehicle full of hockey gear and a weekends worth of clothes food. The problem has not self corrected. I will be taking it to my local mechanic to get a 2nd opinion. Currently the vehicle will continue to sit in my front yard until Hyundai wants to fix it for free.
