NHTSA ODI 11103628

THE CAR IS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I'M TAKING IT FOR INSPECTION AND IT IS READING FUEL SYSTEM NOT READY. WHEN I BOTH THE CAR THEY SAY I HAVE A TEN YEAR WARRANTY OR 100.000 WHICHEVER IS FIRST. MY CAR IS NEITHER BUT THEY ARE TELLING ME THAT IT IS NOT COVERED FOR THEM TO CHECK IT IS $230 PLUS TAX. AND MY WIPER BLADES

PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT TO TALK ON MY PHONE AND AFTER I PULLED AWAY THE ENGINE STARTED MAKING A KNOCKING NOISE. I HAVE CHANGED THE OIL ON TIME EVERY TIME AND MOST OF ALL THE MILES ON IT ARE HIGHWAY MILES. I HAVE ISSUE THAT HYUNDAI RECALLED THE SONATA AND SANTA FE OF THE SAME YEAR AND ALSO KIA RECALLED THE SPORTAGE FOR ENGINE KNOCKING. THE ENGINE IS THE SAME EXACT ENGINE IN THE 2013 HYUNDAI TUSCON BUT IT DOESN'T HAVE A RECALL. THIS MAKE ZERO SENSE.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY, MY CAR BEGAN TO SHAKE AND FELT AS THOUGH I HAD A TIRE ISSUE. I SLOWED DOWN, AND THE VIBRATION ESCALATED SO I PULLED OVER. ONCE I WAS AT THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, THE ENGINE STARTED MAKING LOUD KNOCKING NOISES. I CALLED A TOW TRUCK AT THIS POINT AND THE CAR WAS TOWED TO A HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE ENGINE HAD BLOWN. I CONTACTED HYUNDAI CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND THEY DID A CASE REVIEW. I WAS TOLD THAT SINCE THE CAR, WHICH IS 5 YRS OLD AND HAS 87,900 MILES, IT IS OUTSIDE OF THE WARRANTY. I QUESTIONED THE RECALL ON OTHER CARS WITH THE THETA II ENGINE SUCH AS THE SANTA FE AND THE SONATA AND WAS INFORMED THAT MY CAR DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH COMPLAINTS TO BE INCLUDED. APPARENTLY, ALTHOUGH THEY HAVE THE SAME ENGINE, THE TUSCON ENGINE IS SLIGHTLY SMALLER SO DOES NOT QUALIFY FOR THE RECALL. THE SAME ISSUES APPLY WITH THE RECALLED ENGINE THAT MY ENGINE HAS WHICH IS METAL SHAVINGS AROUND THE CRANKSHAFT. THE METAL SHAVINGS HAVE CAUSED INSUFFICIENT MOVEMENT OF OIL THROUGHOUT THE ENGINE.

I AM WRITING IN RESPONSE TO THE RECENT ISSUES I AM HAVING WITH MY 2013 TUCSON. IT IS CURRENTLY SITTING (BECAUSE IT IS UNABLE TO START) AT A HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD FROM HYUNDAI CUSTOMER SERVICE TO HAVE IT TOWED THERE DUE TO THE ENGINE TROUBLE I AM HAVING WITH THE CAR, AND DID SO ON MARCH 16, 2018. I DO NOT FEEL THAT THE COMPLETE ENGINE FAILURE IS DUE TO ANY NEGLIGENCE ON MY PART. I HAVE ALWAYS KEPT UP WITH REGULAR MAINTENANCE ON THE CAR INCLUDING OIL CHANGES. I CHOSE TO PURCHASE A HYUNDAI BECAUSE OF THEIR KNOWN RELIABILITY AND SAFETY. THESE ARE MOST IMPORTANT WHEN CHOOSING A VEHICLE TO OWN, AND I FELT HYNDAI WAS TOP IN BOTH THOSE CATEGORIES. I HAVE TWO YOUNG GIRLS TO KEEP SAFE. HOWEVER HYNDAI HAS PROVEN TO NOT BE. ONE MOMENT I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE MY TUSCON AND THEN THE NEXT MOMENT I AM UNABLE TO START IT AND AM LOOKING AT A COST TO FIX IT AT WELL OVER $5000.00.AUTO NATION HAS LOOKED AT THE CAR AS HAS STATED THAT THERE ARE COMPLICATIONS WITH THE CVVT GEAR AND THE TIMING CHAIN. HENCE THE REASON THE CAR NO LONGER CAN START AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED. I FEEL THAT THE ENGINE PROBLEMS NEED TO BE ADDRESSED AND PAID FOR BY HYUNDAI DUE TO MANUFACTURER'S ERROR. I HAVE TRIED TO FACILITATE THESE ISSUES BY SPEAKING DIRECTLY WITH HYUNDAI CUSTOMER SERVICE. EVERY TIME I HAVE CALLED, I HAVE SPOKEN TO A DIFFERENT CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE AND GIVEN A DIFFERENT CASE NUMBER. DESPITE EXPLAINING TO A NEW PERSON THE DETAILS OF THE PROCESS I AM GOING THROUGH, EACH REPRESENTATIVES HAS HAD A DIFFERENT EXCUSE AS TO WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN REPAIRING MY CAR. THERE HAS BEEN NO CONSISTENCY ON YOUR END. MY FAMILY AND I HAVE BEEN LOYAL CUSTOMERS OF HYUNDAI FOR YEARS. IN RETURN, I WOULD EXPECT HYUNDAI TO BE AVAILABLE FOR ASSISTANCE IN THIS MATTER.

MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY DURING AN ACCIDENT IN WHICH MY CAR WAS COMPLETELY TOTALED. I WAS AT A COMPLETE STOP ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN I WAS REAR-ENDED AT FULL SPEED, WHICH CAUSED MY VEHICLE TO RICOCHET ONTO THE ONE AHEAD OF ME. TWO SERIOUS IMPACTS AND NOT ONE AIRBAG.

WHILE DRIVING AT AROUND 40-50 MPH, THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH SUDDENLY CAME ON AND THEN THE ENGINE OF THE CAR JUST STOPPED. THANKFULLY NO ONE WAS HURT AND THIS DID NOT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE. ACCORDING TO THE DEALERSHIP, THE ENGINE HAS SEIZED. WHILE SITTING IN TRAFFIC WAITING FOR A TOW, WE CHECKED THE OIL IN THE ENGINE AND THERE WAS PLENTY. WE DID REGULAR OIL CHANGES ON THIS CAR. WE ARE THE 2ND OWNER AND THE CAR HAS 76,000 MILES ON IT, SO IT IS NO LONGER COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON THE MORNING OF APRIL 17, 2017, I HAD JUST TURNED ONTO A 2-LANE ROAD WHEN THERE WAS A LOUD NOISE THAT SOUNDED LIKE A GUN BEING FIRED INSIDE THE VEHICLE. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER TO FIND THAT MY PANORAMIC SUNROOF HAD EXPLODED. I HAD JUST MADE A TURN, SO I WAS NOT GOING FAST, MAYBE 30-35 MPH, IT WAS A COOL SPRING MORNING, NOT OVERLY HOT OR COLD, THERE WAS NO PRECIPITATION, NO EXTREME TEMPERATURES. I CALLED THE HYUNDAI DEALER WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE FROM, AND THEY SAID IT WAS NOT A DEFAULT IN THE VEHICLE, IT WAS NOT THEIR FAULT, AND THEY WOULD NOT REPLACE IT.

WHILE MERGING ONTO THE HIGHWAY DRIVING AROUND 65-70 MPH, THE CAR'S CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, OIL LEVEL LIGHT AND BATTERY LIGHT ALL CAME ON AND THE CAR POWERED DOWN AND LOST ALL SPEED WITHIN A .5 MILE DISTANCE. AFTER HAVING IT TOWED, THE CAR NOW NEEDS A NEW ENGINE ENTIRELY DUE TO FAULTY BEARINGS THAT CAUSED THE CAR TO SEIZE WHILE DRIVING.

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK AT 5AM, 10/12/2017. I WAS A COUPLE OF MILES FROM MY HOME, ON ROUTE 66, WHEN MY PANORAMIC SUNROOF EXPLODED. THE SOUND WAS SO LOUD, IT WAS LIKE A SHOTGUN GOING OFF NEXT TO MY EAR. THE TEMPERATURE AT THE TIME WAS 55 DEGREES, AND I WAS ONLY GOING 35 MPH. I PULLED OVER IMMEDIATELY TO SEE WHAT HAD HAPPENED. SINCE THE SHADE WAS DRAWN ON THE SUNROOF, I HAD NO IDEA AT FIRST THAT THAT WAS THE PROBLEM. ONCE I SAW THE GLASS ALL OVER THE ROOF, I LOOKED AT THE SUNROOF, AND SAW THE HUGE HOLE

ON SEPT. 9TH 2017 WE WERE EVACUATING FROM HURRICANE IRMA. WE HEADED NORTH FROM GA. ON I-77 IN N.C ALL THE LIGHTS CAME ON AND CAR SLOWED DOWN. WE PULLED OVER AND SHUT IT OFF. WHEN TURNING IT BACK ON A LOUD HORRIBLE NOISE WAS COMING FROM THE FRONT. WE WERE ABLE TO SLOWLY GET OFF THE EXIT. WE FOUND A MECHANIC SHOP AND TOOK IT THERE TO SEE IF THEY COULD TELL US WHAT IT WAS. THE CAR NEVER GAVE US ANY WARNINGS OR LIGHTS CAME ON PRIOR TO THIS. WHEN WE PURCHASED THE CAR IN 2016, WE HAD TAKEN IT TO THE HYUNDAI DEALER WE BOUGHT IT FROM DUE TO A KNOCKING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT. WE TOOK IT ABOUT 3 TIMES AND TO NO AVAIL THEY DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING. WE PURCHASED THE CAR WITH ALMOST 35,000 MILES AND IT WAS AT 78,000 MILES WHEN IT LEFT US STRANDED IN NC. ON MONDAY 9/11/17 THE MECHANIC CALLED US AND TOLD US HE FOUND OIL AND METAL SHAVINGS IN THE PAN AND THAT THE ENGINE HAD FAILED. WE'VE ONLY HAD THIS CAR FOR 1 1/2 YRS. NOW NOT ONLY WE WERE OUT OF POCKET FOR 4 NIGHTS AT A HOTEL, WE HAD TO RENT A UHAUL TO TRANSPORT THE CAR BACK TO GA. FILED A COMPLAINT WITH HYUNDAI ON 9/16/17. THEY GOT BACK TO ME ON 9/28 AND 9/29. I WAS TOLD THE SAVANNAH HYUNDAI DEALER WANTS US TO TOW THE CAR TO THEIR SERVICE DEPT. AT OUR EXPENSE PLUS WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY THEM $400 SO THEY CAN DO A FULL INSPECTION ON OUR CAR. THE SAME CAR I WAS BRINGING TO THEM WITH ISSUES BEFORE WE WERE OUT OF WARRANTY. I AM AWARE OF A LOT OF ISSUES WITH THESE ENGINES AND THEY NEED TO BE RECALLED AND REPLACED.

I RELIGIOUSLY MAINTAINED MAINTENANCE ON MY SUV, BUT OUT THE BLUE, LAST WEEKEND 7/29-30 I WAS AT A LIGHT AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED AND SOMETHING BROKE IN THE ENGINE AREA, I HEARD A SNAP, IT SOUNDED LIKE A BELT. WELL, I FLAT BED TOWED THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND TO MY AMAZEMENT, I RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE SERVICE ADVISOR THAT I NEEDED A NEW ENGINE? THE COST WOULD BE AROUND $8,000.00. I RELIGIOUSLY HAD EVERY WARRANTY SERVICE DONE AND THEY CAME BACK WITH MY CRANK SHANK PINS AND PISTONS WERE WORN OUT AND ROD KNOCKING WAS TAKEN PLACE, PLUS NO MORE ROD BEARINGS. I ASKED WHAT COULD OF CAUSED THIS AND HE STATED, "LACK OF OIL?". I NEVER MISSED AN OIL CHANGE ON THE SUV, SO HOW COULD THIS BE?? ALSO, METAL SHAVINGS WERE FOUND IN THE OIL PAIN AND CYLINDER 2 AND 3 GONE. THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE SANTA FE SUV 2011-2013, KIA 2011-2014 WHEREBY THE SAME THING CRANKPINS, METAL SHAVINGS FOUND, THE EXACT WORDING FROM THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT (FOUND ONLINE) IS "DURING MACHINING OF THE ENTIRE ENGINE, CRANKSHAFT AND CRANKPINS, METAL SHAVINGS MAY HAVE BEEN LEFT WITHIN THE CRANKSHAFT OIL PASSAGES, OIL MAY BE BLOCKED AND CAUSE THE CONNECTING RODS TO WEAR, WHICH WOULD THEN CAUSE HEM TO FAIL AND SEIZE THE ENGINE. NOW, THEY DIDN'T LIST MY VEHICLE, BUT IT'S THE EXACT AND SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED SINCE MY VEHICLE HAS THE SAME ENGINE! ALSO, THIS OCCURRED AT EXACTLY 100,000 MILES WHEN THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. NOW, THE SERVICE ADVISORS ARE BEING HORRID AND HEATED EXCHANGES ARE GOING ON WITH THE CAR DEALERSHIP TEAM ON MY CAR REPAIR. IT'S STILL SITTING AT THE DEALERSHIP AND I'M IN AN EXPENSIVE RENTAL. I HAD JUST MADE MY LAST PAYMENT....

I OWN A 2013 HYUNDAI TUCSON WITH 70,000 MILES ON IT. I MAINTAIN IT PROPERLY, USE SYNTHETIC OIL REGULARLY, BUT THE ENGINE SEIZED YESTERDAY WHILE DRIVING ON THE PENNSYLVANIA TURNPIKE.

WHILE DRIVING, ON DIFFERENT ROADS (I.E. - INTERSTATE, CITY,) THE ENGINE REVS OVER TO THE RIGHT WITHOUT MY CHANGING GAS PEDAL PRESSURE. MY CAR IS ON CRUISE WHENEVER POSSIBLE. THIS HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING. SPEED CAN VARY, AS ON THE INTERSTATE OR ON A CITY STREET. I PLACED A DATE WHEN IT PROBABLY STARTED, AS IT HAS BEEN GOING ON A LONG TIME. HYUNDAI TODAY TOLD ME THERE IS A REVVING ISSUE, BUT NOT THAT APPLIES TO MY VEHICLE; HOWEVER, I AM ON THE PHONE TELLING HIM IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING TO MY VEHICLE A LONG TIME.

MY TOUCH SCREEN (NAVIGATION/RADIO/ETC) DOES NOT LIGHT UP WHEN THE WEATHER GETS TOO COLD. THE SCREEN HAS A BACK LIGHTING BUT IS COMPLETELY BLACK. THE RADIO WORKS AND I AM ABLE TO CHANGE CHANNELS. WHEN I TOUCH THE BLACK SCREEN, I CAN TELL THAT IT IS CONTROLLING IT BECAUSE IF I HIT THE RIGHT SPOT, THE CHANNEL WILL CHANGE. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE FOR REPAIR. THE FIRST TIME IT WAS A WARM DAY AND THE DEALER WASN'T ABLE TO FIND AN ISSUE. THE SECOND TIME, THEY TOLD ME THE SCREEN WAS OBVIOUSLY DEAD AND I WOULD NEED TO REPLACE IT AT A COST OF $600. ONE WEEK LATER AFTER I HAD BEEN DRIVING IT FOR SEVERAL HOURS, THE SCREEN TURNED BACK ON SO IT OBVIOUSLY IS STILL OPERABLE. I HAVEN'T HAD IT TURN ON AGAIN SINCE. I FOUND A TSB THAT I BELIEVE MAY ADDRESS THE PROBLEM - TSB #14-01-031-1. NHTSA ID #10060593.

HYUNDAI PANORAMIC SUNROOF EXPLODED FATHER'S DAY 2015, WE WERE TRAVELING WESTBOUND ON HWY 70 FROM LITTLE ROCK TO HOT SPRINGS AR AROUND 10:45 AM. IT WAS NOT EXCESSIVELY HOT, AND IT WAS A BIT OVERCAST. THERE WAS NO NOISE ALERTING US TO THE IMPENDING EXPLOSION. AND THAT EXPLOSION SOUNDED JUST LIKE A GUNSHOT AT VERY CLOSE RANGE. THANKFULLY, WE HAD THE SHADE CLOSED WHEN THE FORWARD PORTION OF THE SUNROOF LITERALLY BLEW UP, SENDING A THOUSAND GLASS SHARDS THRU THE AIR, ONTO THE SHADE, AND BOUNDING OFF THE TOP AND REAR OF THE CAR...WE WERE ABLE TO PULL OVER AND REMOVE MUCH OF THE GLASS SHARDS, BUT THE GLASS STILL CLINGING TO THE FRAME OF THE SUNROOF WAS CURVED UPWARD, LIKE TO HAD LITERALLY BLOWN "UP"....I WENT ONLINE AND SAW MANY PICTURES AND STORIES OF THIS SAME THING HAPPENING TO OTHERS, THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY. THE SAFETY RAMIFICATIONS SEEM MORE THAN ENOUGH TO WARRANT SOME SORT OF INVESTIGATION AND ACTION BY THE HYUNDAI COMPANY.....UPDATED 08/24/15*BF
