Description of the problem | Vehicle engine shut down 2018 memorial day weekend. Hyundai service center ran a compression test and scoped the engine and found the cylinder walls scored. Prior to this back in 2016 another engine issue regarding the engine carrying harness was addressed & fixed. Less than 6 months after purchasing vehicle brand new in nov 2013/i am the 1st & only owner, i was driving the vehicle in the spring at it cutoff. I reached out to the racine wi hyundai service center over a year in order to figure out what was happening, the vehicle turned off multiple times over that year as well as my towing the vehicle to hyundai multiple times before issue was found & fixed i have been advised that the specific engine in my vehicle was recalled but somehow my vehicle did not meet the engine recall qualification. How? When before i can even finish paying off the vehicle the engine has had 2 different problems with the 2nd problem rendering the engine useless. 6 months after buying the vehicle brand new, it started cutting off |
