THEY PERFORMED THE RECALL IT DID NOT FIX THE KNOCKING NOISE I CALLED CORPORATE TO FILE A CLAIM THEY HAD ME RETURN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND RUN DIAGNOSTICS IN DETERMINING THE DIAGNOSTICS I AM IN NEED OF A NEW ENGINE HOWEVER THEY ONLY WANT TO PAY 2000 OF THE $3000 TO $6000 IT'S GOING TO COST TO REPLACE THE SHORT BLOCK ENGINE. THEY ALSO STATED THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY CURRENT ENGINE NOR DO THEY KNOW WHY IT FAILED AND THEY ALSO DON'T KNOW WHY MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NEVER CAME ON. THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP ALSO TOLD ME IT WAS FINE TO CONTINUE DRIVING THE VEHICLE.

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY ENGINE CUTS SHUTS OFF. I LET THE CAR ROLL TO THE FIRST OFF RAMP IN WHICH I COULD NOT START THE CAR AGAIN. STUCK IN MIDDLE LANE OF EXIT UNTIL I GOT HELP TO PUSH CAR TO SIDE OF THE ROAD.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY IN BIRMINGHAM, COMING FROM STOCKBRIDGE, GA WE HEARD A KNOCKING NOISE UNDER THE HOOD AND PULLED OVER. THE NOISE INCREASED, SO WE HAD TO HAVE CAR TOWED ALL THE WAY BACK TO GEORGIA TO A HYUNDAI SERVICE CENTER. IT TURNS OUT THE ROB BEARING FAILED, WAS THE DIAGNOSIS. I PURCHASED THIS CAR IN OCT 2018 THE CAR BROKE DOWN JULY 2019. HYUNDAI TOLD ME IT WOULD COST $10,000 TO REPLACE WITH A NEW ENGINE OR $6,000 USED WITH 90K MILES ON USED ENGINE. I WROTE A LETTER TO HYUNDAI, WHO THEY HAD SOMEONE CONTACT ME AND TOLD ME JUST TO WAIT THERE WILL BE A RECALL SOON. TWO MONTHS LATER I RECEIVE A RECALL NOTICE FOR AN OIL PAN LEAK RECALL #19V063000. THAT WAS TOO LATE! THE CAR IS SITTING IN MY GARAGE BECAUSE I FEEL THAT HYUNDAI IS RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING THIS CAR. I JUST READ WHERE HYUNDAI/KIA HAD A CLASS ACTION SUIT ON THEM AND THEY SETTLED, BUT 2012 TUCSON WAS NOT LISTED ONLY 2014, 2015, 2018 &2019 TUCSON. HOW DO YOU START A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT?

MY VEHICLE BEGAN MAKING A CLANKING NOISE FROM THE FRONT OF THE CAR WHILE I WAS DRIVING, I PULLED OVER TO CHECK WHAT THE NOISE WAS, WHEN I STOPPED THE VEHICLE I LOOKED UNDERNEATH AND SAW A FLUID COMING OUT, I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR HOME BUT THE CLANKING WAS STILL GOING THEN AS I TRIED TO GO A LITTLE FASTER AROUND 30MPH THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, I PULLED INTO MY COMPLEX AND THE CAR COMPLETELY DIED, I WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND STARTED THE CAR UP AGAIN NO LIGHTS CAME ON BUT THERE WAS STILL CLANKING COMING FROM THE FRONT. NEXT MORNING I DROVE IT UP THE STREET TO MY MECHANIC THE CAR DID THE SAME THING BUT THIS TIME THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE OIL LIGHT WAS FLICKERING, AND AS I PULLED INTO THE MECHANIC SHOP THE CAR DIED WHILE I WAS IN MID TURN. THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS A SMALL OIL LEAK BUT NEEDED TO OPEN THE ENGINE TO FIND OUT MORE. THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE SO I TOOK IT TO THE HYUNDAI DEALER TO SEE IF THAT WAS THE CAUSE THEY TOLD ME IT WAS NOT, AS I DID RESEARCH I FOUND THAT HYUNDAI HAS TWO DIFFERENT CARS WITH THE SAME TYPE OF ISSUE WITH THE ENGINE. HYUNDAI FINALLY CAME WITH A DIAGNOSTIC THAT IT WAS MY SPUN BEARING THAT WAS THE ISSUE WITH THE ENGINE, WHICH IS THE EXACT ISSUE AS THE TWO OTHER CARS THE SONATA AND SANTA FE FROM HYUNDAI WITH A RECALL. I HAVE REACHED OUT TO HYUNDAI MANUFACTURING TO INFORM THEM OF THE ISSUE, THEY TOLD ME THAT THE HYUNDAI DEALER WHO DID THE DIAGNOSTIC DOES NOT HAVE TO REPORT THESE FINDINGS IF THEY DO NOT WANT TO. I HAVE SEEN COMPLAINTS WITH MY

DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE 95 IN PHILADELPHIA, PA (AT 55MPH) WHEN ENGINE STALLED. WAS ABLE TO GET ONTO SHOULDER, AND HAD CAR TOWED TO MECHANIC. MECHANIC TELLS ME THAT THE ENGINE SEIZED (DUE TO NO OIL GETTING TO THE BLOCK), AND THAT I WOULD NEED A NEW MOTOR. CONTACTED HYUNDAI USA, AND THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING ABOUT IT. BASED ON THE REVIEWS, IT LOOKS LIKE THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE, YET THEY ARE DOING NOTHING ABOUT IT.

VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY DOES NOT ACCELERATE FROM A STOP, OFTEN LOOSES POWER. THIS CAN BE DANGEROUS IF PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC. TRANSMISSION ISSUES HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED WITH OTHER YEARS, BUT THIS ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED WITH EARLIER MODEL YEARS. WHILE TURNING INTO TRAFFIC, VEHICLE DID NOT ACCELERATE AS EXPECTED ALMOST CAUSE IT AN ACCIDENT. TOOK VEHICLE TO HYUNDAI FOR SERVICE, AND THE PROBLEM COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED AT THE TIME, INSTEAD WAS TOLD TO 'CHANGE TRANSMISSION FLUID, THAT MAY HELP' THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE OTHER TUCSON'S WITH THE SAME ISSUE. VEHICLE CONTINUES TO HAVE SAME ISSUES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 HYUNDAI TUCSON. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V063000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING).

MY CAR (2012 HYUNDAI TUCSON) WAS EFFECTED BY RECALL 181, ANNOUNCED IN APRIL OF 2019. MY ENGINE SEIZED WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 80 MPH, LUCKILY WE WERE ABLE TO PULL ON TO THE SHOULDER SAFELY. HAD IT BEEN A MILE OR TWO DOWN THE ROAD THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IN A TUNNEL AND THE OUTCOME COULD HAVE BEEN DRAMATICALLY DIFFERENT AS THERE IS NO SHOULDER. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO MY LOCAL GARAGE WHERE THEY TESTED VARIOUS THINGS INCLUDING STARTER, ALTERNATOR, BATTERY ETC AND DETERMINED THE ENGINE HAD SEIZED. I HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND AGAIN AFTER RUNNING DIAGNOSTIC IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE ENGINE IS SEIZED. NOW I AM IN A WAITING GAME TO SEE IF HYUNDAI WILL DO THE RIGHT THING AND REPLACE THE ENGINE.

I HAD TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE ENGINE IN MY VEHICLE, NOW HYUNDAI IS PLACING A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE FOR ENGINE OIL LEAK! MY VEHICLE STALLED AND ENGINE DIED WHEN MY ENGINE WENT SO I BELIEVE THIS RECALL HAD A FACTOR ON MY ENGINE DYING. I WAS ON A HIGHWAY, HEAVY TRAFFIC WHEN THE ENGINE STALL, THEN PUTTERED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD & QUIT. AFTERWARDS THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A CERTIFIED MECHANIC THAT DIAGNOSED VEHICLE AS ENGINE FAILURE - WHICH RESULTED IN FULL ENGINE REPLACEMENT. I FEEL THAT MY ENGINE SHOULD BE FULLY COVERED AND AM REQUESTING A REFUND FOR REPLACEMENT OF MY ENGINE. I NOTIFIED HYUNDAI AT THE TIME OF THIS INCIDENT BUT THEY REPORTED THAT "THERE IS NO RECALLS" FOR ENGINE OR ANY RELATED "RECALLS" SIMILAR TO THE MALFUNCTION OF MY ENGINE.........REALLY? THE HYUNDAI SONATA HAS THE SAME ENGINE IN IT 2011 AND IT HAS A FULL RECALL ON THAT ENGINE. I NEED A CLEAR EXPLANATION PLEASE. I WILL REVIEW MY SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS AND CAN PROVIDE A CLEAR & PRECISE DATE OF INCIDENT. DATE BELOW IS ONLY A GUESS.

SINCE THE NEAREST HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP WAS CLOSED B/C OF THE HOLIDAY I HAD IT TOWED TO MR. TIRE. THEY AT FIRST THOUGHT IT WAS THE ALTERNATOR THEN THE STARTER, BUT THEN DECIDED IT WAS AN ENGINE ISSUE. I THEN HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY CONFIRMED IT WAS AN ENGINE FAILURE AND IT WOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. HOWEVER IT TOOK A FEW WEEKS TO EVEN GET THAT DETERMINATION. THEN I WAS TOLD THAT PARTS WERE ON BACK ORDER AND IT WOULD BE A MINIMUM OF 3 MONTHS. AFTER WEIGHING OPTIONS I DECIDED TO SADLY TRADE IN THE VEHICLE. ON SEPTEMBER 9, 2019 I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE ON THE CAR (NHTSA RECALL #: 19VX-063; HYUNDAI RECALL #: 181) FOR OIL LEAK THAT COULD LEAD TO ENGINE DAMAGE, STALLED ENGINE, RISK OR CRASH OR FIRE. I AM VERY UPSET THAT I AM JUST RECEIVING THIS RECALL NOW AND THE INCIDENT COULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED. LUCKILY I WAS NOT ON A VERY BUSY ROAD AT THE TIME OF THE BREAK DOWN BUT IT COULD HAVE VERY WELL PUT ME IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION.

ON SATURDAY MAY 4, 2019, MY SON WAS ON GUARD DUTY AT VMI AND HE LENT HIS CAR TO HIS CLOSE FRIEND AND ROOMMATE TO ATTEND A FAMILY EVENT IN ARLINGTON, VA. AFTER ABOUT 100 MILES ON THE ROAD WHILE [XXX] WAS DRIVING IT ON INTERSTATE 81 GOING NORTH, THE CAR STARTED TO SLOW SUDDENLY, AND THE ENGINE AND GAS LIGHT CAME ON THE DASHBOARD, WITH NO OTHER EARLIER WARNING. HE HAD TO SCAN THE AREA QUICKLY TO MAKE SURE OTHER DRIVERS WERE PAYING ATTENTION AS HE WAS QUICKLY DROPPING BELOW THE MINIMUM SPEED LIMIT. THIS SAME THING WAS HAPPENING TO MULTIPLE CAR OWNERS OF THIS MAKE/MODEL YEAR. THE CAR DOWNRIGHT STOP RUNNING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSTATE, WITH NO WARNING. THIS PUT MY SON'S LONG-TIME FRIEND AND ROOM MATE AT RISK! EVERY SERVICE AND TOW STATION WITHIN 60 MILES OF HARRISONBURG WERE BUSY OR CLOSED. THIS SUDDEN STALL ISSUE WAS KNOWN ON 2/5/2019 AND WITH YOUR SYSTEMS KNOWING THE CURRENT OWNER, ADDRESS, AND MY VEHICLE #, THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR NOT ALERTING ME! I HAVE INCURRED ADDITIONAL TOWING FEES BECAUSE I HAD MY SON'S FRIEND TOWED TO THE CLOSEST RESIDENTIAL AREA OFF THE HIGHWAY WHERE THERE WAS A LOCAL SERVICE STATION. COME TO FIND OUT AFTER THEY DID A ONCE OVER THE CAR, THAT THERE WERE METAL SHAVINGS IN THE OIL AND THE TECH HAD TO HAND-CRANK THE ENGINE TO GET IT STARTED. IN OTHER WORDS, IT MET ALL THE CRITERIA FOR THIS ISSUE KNOWN BY HYUNDAI. I HAVE HAD MY VEHICLE REGULARLY SERVICED AT THE HYUNDAI DEALER SERVICE TWICE IN DECEMBER 2018, NOVEMBER 2018, AND MANY OTHER TIMES BEFORE THIS. N
