Tired of engine and electrical failures. As recently as 7/11/2023, I brought my vehicle, 2011 Veracruz Limited FWD suv, to the Brandon (FL) Hyundai delaer for a supposed recall repair. I brought in the car, and picked it up the following day, and was assured that the recall (due to "leaky head gaskets") was taken care as well as the CHECK ENGINE (CE) light - the alternator was NOT replaced (as I had replaced it on 6/28/23 [$241.86 + tax]) with the excuse "it had passed all tests". A couple of days later, the CE light came back. I brought in the car again 7/24/23 and was told upon pick up THAT SAME DAY, that the engine "had a connector loose". Back on the road again, on 7/27/23 the CE light came up again. I decided to check the car myself and noticed: #1. NO (recall related) WORK had been done!!; #2. I decided to see what the CE light meant (P0420) so I removed the Bank 1 Catalytic converter and was astounded at the enormous amount to oil leaking and covering every nook and crany of the front engine - pictures included!! I purchased a new exhaust manifold gasket ($23.30 + tax) and throttle body spray cleaner ($38.43 + tax) to repair and take it back to the dealer for a thorough check up - keeping my fingers crossed. This has been the latest expenses in a litany of expenses (tools, parts, chemicals, related accesories), time off, trips to the dealer and what not in the history of this suv since I purchased back in 8/2010. Hyndai has refussed to pay a penny for all my expenses or repairs all the way to te point of charging for a recall repair NEVER DONE! BTW, I have had the alternator replaced, by myself and by the same dealer, four (4) times!!

Engine failed due to oil leakage

- Chicago, IL, USA

The car would not start so we had it towed to a local repair shop. (The closest Hyundai dealer is located 91 miles (182 round trip). The local shop diagnostics indicated an oil leak in the valve cover gasket which dripped onto the alternator and the drive belt. The obvious way to fix the problem was to replace the valve cover gasket, the alternator and the drive belt. The parts were obtained from an online parts distributor. The diagnostic work was done by the shop and the labor was performed by a well known Master Mechanic with over 25 years of experience and is recognized by the ASE. I filed several claims with Hyundai who keep coming up with reasons why they can't pay the claim for a total $600 out of pocket cost. The car was fixed 7/9/2021 and has run great since then with no leakage! I have filed claims several times and each time they request more documentation be furnished. The latest rejection is dated 5/16/2023 and Hyundai has assigned a Consumer Case #21314437.

Hyundai announced the following recall in November 2020. To date they have done nothing to remedy the problem. My vehicle had this problem and failed while driving on the freeway in 2016. I repaired the problem back then at my expense but my vehicle should be assessed by Hyundai and cleared or additional repairs made. I am waiting over 6 months for a remedy on a recall that was originally announced in 2014 and reissued in 2020 because of Hyundai's failure to adequately address the problem.

I received a recall notification from huundai motor America regarding a safety recall with engines leaking oil from the front cylinder bank's valve cover onto the alternator. As a result, it damaged the alternator resulting disablement of the charging system. The engine shut off and cna increase the risk of crash. I took it in to the dealership and called their customer service (3/18/21 case # 18073112) and they said they have no resolution. Now, my car is completely not drivable. I have to take it to a mechanic shop to replace the gasket and alternator. I firmly believe that hyndai motor should be responsible for the cost.
