Description of the problem	I was driving my car and, according to my mechanic, the crank rod came loose. I bought this vehicle used so the hyundai 100,000 mile warranty will not cover it. I have done routine oil changes and up to this point had no real problem with the vehicle. It is disappointing to say the least as i have had this vehicle for about four years and purchased it based on the idea that hyundai's are supposed to be reliable vehicles. I had hoped that hyundai would have done something to help remedy the situation but at this point they have not, which is also disappointing. In the future i will not be purchasing a hyundai.
