THE ENGINE HESITATES AND WE TOOK IT TO THE HYUNDAI DEALER FOR THE RECALL #162 FOR PROBLEMS WITH THE ENGINE. THEY CHECKED THE ENGINE WITH A STETHOSCOPE AND FOUND NO DEBRIS ACCORDING TO THE TECHNICIAN. BUT ACCORDING TO THE LADY IN THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SHE STATED THAT THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN SEEN IN ENGINES WITH OVER 100,000 MILES AND THAT IS WHY THE WARRANTY HAS BEEN EXTENDED TO 120,000 MILES. THIS MAKE ME VERY UNEASY BECAUSE IT IS MAKES ME FEEL THAT SHE IS SAYING THAT IT IS STILL GOING TO HAPPEN BUT NOT UNTIL THE ENGINE HAS OVER 100,000 MILES. SO IT IS NOT A MATTER OF "IF" JUST A MATTER OF "WHEN" AND I DO NOT THINK THAT IT IS FAIR THAT I MAY BE AT RISK OF BEING IN AN ACCIDENT AS WELL AS MY CHILDREN IN THE FUTURE. I THINK THAT IT SHOULD BE REMEDIED EVEN...

I HAVE A 2013 HYUNDAI, VIN: [XXX], THAT HAD A RECALL ON THE ENGINE FOR POSSIBILITY OF SEIZING UP. IT JUST SO HAPPENED THAT IT ACTUALLY HAPPENED LAST WEEK (THURSDAY, JUNE 8, 2017). I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO ANTWERPEN HYUNDAI, 6440 BALTIMORE NATIONAL PIKE, CATONSVILLE, MD 21228 WHERE I HAVE BEEN HAVING THE CAR SERVICED. THEY HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET A RESOLUTION FROM HYUNDAI SINCE THAT TIME BUT HAVE NOT HAD SUCCESS. I DO NOT HAVE TRANSPORTATION TO GET TO WORK, MY CHILDREN TO THEIR APPOINTED PLACES, ETC AND NO ONE HAS AUTHORIZED ME A RENTAL CAR OR LOANER CAR. I?M GETTING VERY DISTRAUGHT AT THIS TIME DUE TO LACK OF CONCERN FOR MY WELL BEING WHEN THE CAR?S PROBLEM IS CLEARLY A PROBLEM WITH MANUFACTURING AS THE CAR ONLY HAS 43,000 MILES ON IT AS WELL. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HYUNDAI SONATA. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V226000(ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING); HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE WALLACE HYUNDAI DEALER CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

THERE WAS A LOUD CLICKING NOISE AND WHEN TAKING OUR CAR IN THERE WAS NO PROBLEM AT THE TIME. ALL OF A SUDDEN THERE WAS A HORRIBLE LOUD KNOCKING NOISE AND THEN THERE SEEM TO BE NO POWER WHEN TRYING TO DRIVE IT. WHEN HAVING A MECHANIC LOOK AT IT THEY SAID THAT THE PISTON WAS LOSE AND ALSO IT LOOKED LIKE THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE FLOW OF THE OIL THAT WAS GOING IN TO THE ENGINE. BASICALLY HE SAID THE BEARING FAILED AND THAT'S WHY OUR CAR STALLED. LUCKILY IT STALLED WHILE WE WERE IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. HIS CONCLUSION WAS THAT WE WOULD NEED A COMPLETELY NEW ENGINE. IT HASN'T BEEN DRIVABLE FOR MONTHS NOW. WE CAN'T AFFORD TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE ENGINE.
