Tucson TRY 1.6L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 90,500 miles

The vehicle started smoking and would not stop, all of a sudden it just would not start, called a tow truck and got a ride from a friend to the shop. Ended up taking a long time to get the vehicle out of the shop, since it needed a new engine entirely. I had to pick up another job, have to borrow wheels from a friend. I was stuck many times over because the vehicle was in the shop for a number of months due to the fact that I could not pay it out at first. This has caused a lot of stress for me and had to catch a ride with friend to massage therapist a couple of times. I took up smoking again, which has even cost me a lot more than before the car was working. If I could just get new vehicle because I'm not sure I feel safe with this vehicle now even after I paid out the motor and all the added expenses. I mean this vehicle was new, the miles were not that high and this happens. If anything I would want a new vehicle on the manufactures expense.
