• Recall 2017297 [Canada]: Structure
  On certain vehicles, the cable between the actuating lever for the secondary hood latch and the secondary latch may become corroded over time. This could cause the secondary hood latch to remain in the open position when the hood is closed. If the vehicle were to be driven with the primary hood latch disengaged, or primary hood latch is released while driving, the secondary hood latch may not hold the hood closed while the vehicle is in motion. If this were to occur, it could compromise the driver’s ability to see the road and its users, as well as cause damage to the windshield. These issues could result in a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: dealers will replace the secondary hood latch cable.

Drive the car on the highway and seemed like i was losing power and a few minutes later i heard a knocking on the engine

The car was sitting in the driveway waiting to be started up. When the car was started, there was a knocking sound from the engine. I turned the car off and checked the oil. The oil was down about 2 quarts, so i decided to change the oil since we were goin on a trip. I changed the oil and the knocking sound did not go away so we took it to a dealer. We change the oil every 5-7 thousand miles and reset the service button. The car is at the dealer and i have not heard a word from them.

The abs, traction control, and another light are illuminated. Upon investigating online this is a known issue with these cars. No recall has been issued. My car is available for inspection.

Driving home from work, car jerked me forward and stopped at 60mph. Engine promptly shut off. Turned key over and put car into neutral to get it off of the highway. Herrnstein hyundai of chillicothe told me that my nu engine had blown and i need a total replacement. No warnings or dash lights came on. Hyundai states they wont help despite the recall to be posted on june 25th.

Vehicle stalled and locked up was not able to push breaks or turn steering dealer advised me engine was stalled and needed to be replaced, was known in my model, this was why this vehicle and year had an extended warranty unto 200k miles. The engine was replaced and the vehicle is still not running correctly. When accelerating to turn on on highway, it seems stalled and doesn't move, returning to dealer tomorrow after being w/o a vehicle 3 weeks. It is not coming up on your recall notices and am concerned this is a safety issue.

I got my engine repaired, but the test drive showed a sensor for the oil valve? Thing. Hyundai was supposed to overnight it as of friday 4/23. My car is still not done. I am not complainng about the dealership, but the part and how they take so long. My car has been in the shop since 3/20/2021. I have had no car since then. I am in sales and a single mom. I have been using my boyfriend's truck, but i cant do that forever. Can you please look into why hyundai isnt quick with delivering parts? Im beyond frustrated. Hyundai motor company will never be a company i purchase from ever again. Thank you for your help.

I was driving my car 45 miles an hour on saturday april 10th, around 5:40pm in the curb lane. The car completely died unexpectedly. I managed to coast to a small parking lot off of a busy street. I had the car towed and assessed by independent mechanic on the following monday. They determined that the engine had been completely seized, but they performed no repair. The next scheduled car service was 86600 miles, and at the time of the incident, the car had ~84k miles not long after its service at ~83k miles. Please note that during the last 12 months of pandemic, the car gets taken out to the grocery store, a mile a way, once a week or to a local business no more the 8 miles from the house very occasionally. So this vehicle does not see heavy usage. Hyundai usa indicated that i should have this car towed to one of the dealerships for assessment, but have also determined that this vehicle is covered by an extended warranty of 10 years/120,000 miles from original first use. The case number with hyundai usa is 18154048.
