NHTSA Complaint #11630140 — 2019 HYUNDAI TUCSON

While driving on the highway, the check engine line came on and my Tucson started loosing power. I quickly moved into the right lane and was able to exit the highway and pulled over. I had previous issues with the vehicle and was told it was the 1 & 2 ignition coils that were replaced. I assumed it was the same issue for the 3 & 4 ignition coils. They were also replaced but the issue was not resolved and the vehicle was towed to a mechanic shop who stated there was a piece missing off one of the pistons and he couldn't determine how that could have occurred. At this point, he said my engine would need to be replaced and apparently they are back-ordered for 6 months. My daughters vehicle - 2019 Kona, was purchased at the same time and she also lost power in her engine while driving on the freeway. Fortunately she pulled off onto the should in a very dangerous situation. Her engine had a hole and later found out the 2019 Kona had an engine recall. I have heard there are issues with the 2019 Tucson, but no recall has been issued.
