The first oil change, December 2020, no oil was in the vehicle, it was under the recommended miles. Second oil change, April 2021, cut the recommended miles down and again no oil was in the vehicle. May 28, 2021 Leaving a parking lot, the Veloster began to cut out and stall. Within 2 miles it died completely, three times. There was no oil in the Veloster. No lights or warnings came on, until I was leaving the dealership. I continue to have issues with the motor dragging, not shifting properly and trying to die. The recall was closed on the Veloster for the oil rings not being heat treated properly, without Hyundai actually fixing the problem. I have been told the whole time the stalling and cutting out is not connected to the oil ring issue.

No warning lights came on during the whole time this happened... purchased this car with 98 miles on it.... I had the car for 7 days.. mind you i did not use the special features of the car like launch control or NGrin Shifting... i did not take the car past 4k RPM as per the manual... @ 1100 miles exactly i had just filled up with gas and as i pull out the car dies on me... i go to start it.. it keeps trying to turn over.. and over and over... till i smelt gas.... so i put the car into neutral and roll back to the curb i could see the trail of gas left behind it.... so i had it towed to a different dealer as the one who sold it to me.. was not a option to take it to on the app... so the dealer calls me and tells me its the HIGH PRESSURE FUEL pump... but funny thing is, that It had all ready been replaced before they sold me the car..... witch they did not disclose to me.... as soon as the dealer who sold me the after i filed a formal corporate complaint had the car towed to thier shop where it currently sits and its been over 2 weeks waiting on a part... but the fact is this is the second time they have had to replace the pump or line and the car only has 1100 miles on it.....
