My car was hesitating when I would accelerate. I wasn't sure what the issue was and it was not due for an oil change, but I took it to an oil change place anyways. It turns out it was consuming a lot of oil and was almost empty when I took it in even though the indicator light never went on!

I decided to google the issue and found out there is a recall for oil leaks. I called Hyundai and told them what happened and they told me I need to bring it in every 150 miles to determine if there is a leak and my car model and year are not covered. 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe. I did not take it in because the dealership is about 25 miles away and appointments are really hard to get! That is another frustration!

For a few months time I was experiencing only high oil consumption, so I decided to be careful and check frequently. At times it seems like the oil is burning at a higher rate and at times it seems fine. I have been checking and adding as needed.

Well just a couple of days ago, I noticed oil spots on my driveway. So now I think it has progressed to a noticeable leak. I am afraid to drive my car. There is no coverage for this issue and the recall doesn't cover my model and year even though I am having an issue with my car that others are reporting as well. At this point, I am hoping for a miracle. I will be taking the car to a local shop in a week and a half (the soonest appointment they had)

This is my third Hyundai and the one I kept the longest, but I will not buy this any Hyundai or Kia cars again. I am just so bummed about this and really hope they will expand the recall or that enough people will complain to get us a class action lawsuit.

I was driving my 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe V6 3.3L engine down the interstate with my kids when the engine seized up without any warning. We almost got hit by two semi's as we slowed down to a crawl on the shoulder for the next exit. I had it towed to a dealer and they said they "know about the problem", but it's not covered on the recall. How in the heck do they know about the problem, and how is it not covered!?! Hyundai dealership seemed to be scripted in their comments to me. I reached out to Hyundai customer care, waiting to hear back from a representative.
