Description of the problem	On march 10 i took my sonata to get an oil change at superlube. I also took the car on the 11th to the hyundai dealership to check for a knocking noise i had heard in the car. They ran tests and told me my engine was fine, and i need brakes, an alignment, and tires. So i spent $800 getting these things done on my car including the oil change. Well on the 18th of march in traveling my car stopped in the middle of the highway. I crank up it drive for a minute and cut right back off again. So i had the car towed to my house. They ran tests, could not find anything wrong with the car, thought it was my pulley, but it was all right. So the mechanic said let's try another oil change. Started draining the oil, it was black as tar as if i had not gotten an oil change. Treated the gas and the fuel injection system. Still a knock in acceleration. Went back to superlube to give them a piece of my mind only to find out that the manager had been having problems with gdi engines and the fuel injection system. Told me that they knew about it and-and not saying anything. I was only mad because i had taken my car to hyundai twice since i had the car in a year for engine inspection and not one time did they tell me this.
