Consumer Description

While driving down the interstate the vehicle would not accelerate and the RPMs were fluctuating. We were luckily near an exit and were able to pull into a gas station. The check engine light came on. Once we parked the engine stalled and we were not able to restart. We had the vehicle towed to a AAA certified mechanic, they stated there was no oil and that the engine needed to be replaced. We did not receive any low oil indicators for the vehicle. We had the vehicle flat bed towed back to our home town where a 2nd mechanic indicated that there was still some oil in the vehicle but that the engine would need to be replaced. The VIN for this car shows no engine recall but this appears to be the same issue that has resulted in Hyundai engine recall with the 2.0 vehicles.
