Consumer Description

While driving home from a doctors appointment my engine all of sudden started making a loud knocking noise, the oil light flickered on and off and the check engine light came on. I honestly wasn't sure if I would make it home with the loud noise the engine was making and the car was starting to shake while driving. I did have it towed to the dealership (I have 2 2017 Tucsons both currently at the dealership with blown engines under 60000 miles) and they confirmed the engine needed replaced. I feel this is a safety concern because the engine could have failed while driving putting myself and others at risk of an accident or maybe even death.
