I had this lemon for 22 months and NO late payments on it! It’s a 2012 Hyundai Sonata/4 door 2.0T engine. I already had the engine replaced back Feb/Mar of 2021. Not they told me it was a brand-new engine. I doubt it was. Now 17 months later the engine went out again and it’s only running on 3 cylinders with no power and stalling, and almost ran like the last engine?

I can’t afford to keep repairing this vehicle.

There were other problems that needed to be repaired since I bought it. I had to change the headlights every month and also added oil to the car every week. Also, White smoke would come out intermittent out of the tail pipe. I will never recommend a Hyundai, nor would I buy one again. This has ruined my credit and took lots of my money! I will not let this go, to see something is done about this! I need reimbursement on my money. So I can pay for a vehicle that actually works. Disappointed.

We took the car back to the same dealer (ABC Hyundai) that did the engine last year. And now they have to re-inspect the engine again to see IF it will be under the replacement recall failure?

Just receive a call from the dealership and they told us it will not be cover under warranty. Because they are stating it had to be a crank bearing issue to cover for warranty.

To me, when the company are stating a bad engine (nothing about crank bearing issue) it should be under recall engine issue. Again, this shows us what type of quality vehicle Hyundai is putting out there. Not even 45,000 miles on this engine before the engine broke down again. A typical passenger car should last 200,000 miles or more?

I recently purchased another car and still have the Hyundai but needed something to drive. I was putting a lot of money down on the Hyundai to pay it off faster. And all that money is now wasted. I even paid on time for 22 months and now my credit has to get ruined. I am forced to stop my payments on the loan which upsets me and is not fair.

Estimate, generally, that replacing your Hyundai engine will cost you an average of $4,700. However, depending on various factors, the price can range between $3,600 and $6,000. These factors include the mechanic you choose, if you buy a new, refurbished, or used engine, and if any other parts need to be replaced in conjunction with the engine.

Hyundai dealership denies the engine failures on her Sonata vehicle, and blame its customer for the problem - forcing them to pay as much as $10,000 for an engine replacement.

Sonata Owner: ‘The engine just died.’

Please if I you can help me; some kind of compensation?
