I heard a very loud noise from my Sonata (sounded like an engine about a week and a half ago. The car was taken to my Firestone service center to have it checked out. They could not find the engine noise when inspected but pointed out that this engine was under a recall by Hyundai. I then experienced the noise again after the Firestone visit and the car was taken into dcn Hyundai in South brunswick, NJ. They were able to bill me nearly $300 for brake service, but said they heard no engine noise...and denied that the car was under a recall. Lo and behold, I found in my mailbox on Friday 6/9 an (interim) recall notice. In reading the recall notice received in the mail (and subsequent reports I then found on the internet), the way I described the problem to the service department at dcn matches very, very closely to the problem described in the notices received and found on line. After calling the Hyundai dealer to ask them what to do with the car, I was dismissed with a statement that "everybody gets that notice". I spoke with someone named "harvey" who was identified as the service manager. In a second, somewhat contentious call my husband made to "harvey", he was again told that this is an interim notice and there was nothing dcn would or could do to help. This is despite the fact that I had brought the car in for service already reporting the issue almost exactly as described in the notice and on line. "harvey" declined to give his last name which was requested for proper documentation purposes. He did say that he was an assistant service manager. He would not supply the name of his manager or any other dealer management which, again, was requested so that this experience could be properly documented. Follow up call made to Hyundai corporate was answered with a request to bring the car to another Hyundai dealership, other than dcn, for inspection.

I went to my nearest dealer, in hazleton, Pennsylvania about a knocking sound in my engine and the rmpg going up and down faster then usual when pressing on the gas. They told me Hyundai couldn't cover it since my warranty was soon going to expire (60,000) miles. And they couldn't take me in that certain day. My car would literally jump as if I was in a hill when being on a flat surface.

Nothing has happened yet, but I understand the engine could fail at any time and cause an accident. This is recall #162 and hyundia seems to be dragging their feet on a fix for this problem, I understand this problem started with the 2011 model year because of metal shavings left in the engine after manufacturing, it seems like a fix should have been found by now. I am going on a extended road trip shortly and do not feel safe driving without having this problem looked into.

Hyundai has notified me of a recall that effects the engine and that may lead to a possible crash -- but has offered no remedy for the problem. What are my options and how can I assure the safety of myself and my family?

- North Attleboro, MA, USA

Driving down the highway and noticed the car running funny and rpms were at 4000 instead of the usual 2000. When I let off the accelerator I heard a weird noise like something flapping in the wind. Gave it gas, noise went away. No warning lights, not overheating. After about 3 miles the oil light came on. I immediately attempted to get to the shoulder of the road and the car died within 30 seconds of the light coming on. Put it in neutral and coasted to a safe parking place. Checked the oil, the coolant, all was good. Nothing was leaking, no smoke. I tried to start the car and it started was running rough and died. Wouldnt turn over after that. Shop called and said the engine seized. Now its at the dealership waiting to see what the next step is.

My engine has hesitated on several occasions and when I looked up the information to see if there was a recall or defect online I noticed that there is in fact a recall. Recall number 162 shows that we are suppose to get a letter but I have still get to get a recall notice and there still appears to be no remedy for the recall. How long to we as the consumer have to wait for the problem to be remedied?
