All Engine And Engine Coolingcooling System Complaints
MY WIFE WAS DRIVING ON A FREEWAY APPROX 65 MPH WHEN SHE HEARD A LOUD POP, LOOKING AT THE DASH BOARD ALL GAUGES REPORTED NOTHING WRONG. SUDDENLY A LARGE AMOUNT OF WHITE SMOKE CAME FROM UNDER THE HOOD, BLINDING HER VISIBILITY AND CARS BEHIND HER. SHE WAS ABLE TO VEER OFF TO THE MEDIAN AND CALL FOR ASSISTANCE. THE REPAIR SHOP NOTED THAT A PLASTIC RESERVOIR TANK EXPLODED AND DRAINED ALL COOLANT AND DAMAGED THE RADIATOR AND RECOMMENDED CALLING HYUNDAI SINCE CAR IS IN WARRANTY AND SUGGESTS THAT ENGINE DAMAGE (SEAL DAMAGE MAY RESULT IN COMPLETE DAMAGE OF ENGINE AND NEED REPLACEMENT) THE CAR IS CURRENTLY AT DEALERSHIP. THIS IS A SIMILAR REPORT AS LISTED AND MAY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH DUE TO SMOKE DISABLING DRIVERS VIEW. *NM
