Description of the problem	It is having the same problems that the engines are being recalled for now. It is making tapping and pinging sounds. I have looked the vehicle and have seen people have been complaining about their 2006 hyundai sonatas doing the same thing. Scrap yards have these cars there with blown engines. My son is having to pay on a loan on a car that he can not even drive. We have called the banks and insurance. It will cost more to fix the engine than what he owes. Why are 2006's not being recalled also?

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.

Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
