Driving at highway speed 65MPH, the car stalled and slowed down, not moving forward when pressing the gas. No dash indicators were present. I pulled to the side of the highway, turned the car off, and turned it back on. The check engine and oil indicator came on, and the engine began to smoke. The engine temperature was normal. I immediately turned the car back off and called a tow truck. I waited for about two hours for the tow truck, and multiple times, my car was almost struck by traffic coming from behind. I was pulled off the road as far as I could go without going into the ditch. When the tow truck driver came, I got the tow tools from the back. There was sticky dark residue all over the back hitch, getting on my hands and clothes. When the tow truck driver got to the mechanic, oil was *pouring* out of the bottom. The bed of tow truck was covered in oil. Mechanic stated that oil drain plug was missing, but it had been 3000 miles since my oil change was performed by them, and there were zero signs of it not being tightened enough. No oil leaking at any time in the last 3000 miles. Car was at mechanic 200 miles prior for nail in tire, and no oil leaking at that time either. They are denying responsibility, and have paperwork to show they did oil change correctly. At no point in the last 3000 miles did a dash indicator come on for check engine or oil.

The car used extremely amounts of oil yet showed no signs of a leak and the car would shut off randomly while driving. Took it to the first dealership and they refused to acknowledge any problem while we had it towed into them. They had it for 2 months and we showed them problems noted about faulty piston rings in these cars. They made us take the car back and we continued to drive it with the extremely dangerous issue of shut downs with the car and still heavy oil usage. We took it to an independent mechanic who stated scored cylinders due to oil problems from bad rings then towed it to a different dealership that also stated same and recommended engine replacement. Hyundai is refusing the dealer-??s recommendations even though these cars are noted as having these problems and yes each time the engine light comes on. Extremely dangerous to continue to drive this car. Car is still at San Tan Hyundai in Gilbert Az for second week waiting for approval of necessary recall repair have also contacted Hyundai corporate and they deny any problems with this car. We first took this car into dealer 2021 now we have it back with continuous problems

I took my car to the dealership to have the campaign 200 recall fixed. When my vehicle was there, they found that the battery needed to be replaced, however found that there was "front end damage to the battery" and it would fall on me as the owner to replace the battery, and once the battery was replaced, they would fix the recall. (Which replacing the battery would fix in the first place). My issue is, there is no alert on my dashboard or on the app that shows that there are zero diagnostic trouble codes. My concern is that if the battery has such significant damage, there should be some type of alert or warning with this occurring. Also the fact that there is a recall that requires a battery replacement and suddenly damage is noticed on the battery. Unfortunately, it seems that Hyundai is not willing to honor their warranty and "found" a way to blame me as the owner.

Engine light turned on, was told by dealer to keep driving on it unless engine light was blinking or the car started driving differently. Made a right turn and during the turn the vehicle shut off in the roadway. Brought car to dealer, dealer stated the car was low on oil and that was the reasoning, the car was not due for its routine maintenance yet for the oil. Oil was changed. Engine light came on four more times after that and each time was another reason. Within the month I was told it was the oil, a sensor, and then the ignition coil.

The turbo. When you accelerate the RPMs go high up to 4 and the car will barely move. Had it repaired (under warranty). But few months later, happening again. This is a scary situation as the car behind you almost rear ends you if you are at a light, making a turn, etc..

Vehicle only has 30000 miles was driving on the highway. When the engine started making a loud clapping, tapping noise pulled of the exit and the car totally turned off. So I thought the starter failed. But after further inspection saw that a metal rod from inside the engine broke through and sheared off the cables behind the starter as well.. its the same description that other kona owners with the 2.0L version describe " catastrophic engine failure " same noise same everything but I owe the 1.6L version. In the photos you see the back of the starter and the cut cables to the left of the pic. And to the right rear of the pic you see the sheared metal rod that broke through the engine. And cut the cables that go into the starter.... We were going to the hospital to see my son when it happened. He was in the hospital for 1yr since then he has passed. I finally was able to send in my car to the dealership. Where it has been for the last 4 1/2 months with no resolve.
