| Description of the problem | On 11/02/2020 my hyundai santafe sport broke down. I was told by the mechanic at universal hyundai that the 4th cylinder was missfiring and that gasoline was spraying internally. I have always taken care of my car and have changed oil regularly and have never had a single issue with the car. After some investigation i gound that hyundai had two recalls ( 164 and 194) i was told by the rep at universal hyundai that my car would need a new engine and that it would be covered under the recall. However hyundai ended up going back on their word and said my egine would not be covered under the recall and they wouldn't pay for anything. |
