| Description of the problem | At 7606 miles i took my 2013 santa fe sport 2. 0t in for an oil change. The dealer inspected the vehicle and noticed a knocking noise coming from the engine. The manager and line tech confirmed the knocking and indicated to me that i would need a new engine. I was traveling and had a 13 hour drive ahead of me to get back home. Having to worry about this every time i travel is a concern. I do not want to end up on the side of the road. |
