Consumer Description

2017 Hyundai Sonata having severe oil consumption issue. Having to top off with a quart of oil every 500 miles. Was purchased last June and has been a nightmare since. We contacted Hyundai consumer affairs and they opened a case and made an appointment for us to go to a local Hyundai dealer. The dealership told us we didn’t qualify for oil consumption test be cause we are second owners and the vehicle had 62,000 miles on it. We did purchase an extended warranty when we bought the car but they won’t cover oil issue. Local mechanic won’t touch it and refers us to Hyundai dealer. Just getting so frustrated and worried about car safety and engine damage. I read on another sit that Hyundai issued an oil consumption recall in 2025 but our vehicle is not listed. Please help us.
