| Description of the problem | Back in may of 2020 my car out of the blew lost power and my check engine light started flashing. I immediately pulled over, i got my car towed to my closet dealership and they stated it was the computer system. 4 months later, three days after my oil change my car completely shuts off and my engine started making this crazy noise. Dealerships says my enigne is blown, i really dont understand how that happened. They want 6,000 to fix my engine and i cannot afford that especially now. Theres something really wrong with these engines and its not safe nor fair to what yall are doing to people. I was even told by the dealership the sonatas have really bad engines. |
