2013 Hyundai Veloster

DRIVING ON INTERSTATE, ALL LIGHTS FLASHED ON, ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED ON AND MY CAR STALLED AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. I HAD TO TAKE IT OUT OF DRIVE, PUT IT IN SPORT MODE AND THEN BACK TO DRIVE. IT WOULD SHAKE VIOLENTLY IF I WENT ABOVE 45 MILES AN HOUR, I WAS 130 MILES FROM HOME. THIS IS NOT FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED, HAVE MADE PREVIOUS COMPLAINTS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HYUNDAI VELOSTER. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND SMOKE APPEARED FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL GRINDING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE AS IF PIECES OF THE ENGINE WERE FALLING OUT OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND A LARGE HOLE WAS FOUND IN THE ENGINE BLOCK. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO WEBB HIGHLAND HYUNDAI (9236 SOUTH INDIANAPOLIS BLVD, HIGHLAND, IN 46322, (219) 923-2277) WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS AWAITING SERVICE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT RECEIVED WORD ON THE DIAGNOSIS DUE TO THE UPCOMING HOLIDAY WEEKEND. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000.

SO MY MOTOR STARTED MAKING THIS TICKING NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE AND I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID I NEED A NEW MOTOR DUE TO THE FACT I JUST BOUGHT THE NOT EVEN A MONTH FROM THE SMALL DEALERSHIP WHICH THEY DON'T OFFER WARRANTY. I THOUGH IT WOULD STILL HAVE WARRANTY CAUSE IT STILL UNDER 100K AND IT STILL UNDER 10YRS WARRANTY I THOUGHT THEY WOULD COVER IT BUT INSTEAD IT WAT TO THE PREVIOUS OWNER ONLY NOW GONNA COST ME $11000 FOR NEW MOTOR

I HAVE A HYUNDAI VELOSTER 2013. ON THE HWY HOME FROM WORK MY CAR SUDDENLY LOST POWER, I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WHERE IT COMPLETELY DIED. UPON INITIAL INSPECTION IT SEEMED TO BE IN PART DUE TO THE BATTERY. WE REPLACED THE BATTERY AND . SWITCHED OUT THE ALTERNATOR TO TEST IT AND TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY CHARGED US 150 TO SUGGEST FACTORY PARTS IN ORDER TO DIAGNOSE IT. I REFUSED AND PUT THE OLD ALTERNATOR BACK ON AFTER IT TESTED CLEAR AND HECKED THE FUSES. THE MULTI FUSE FOR THE ALTERNATOR HAD BLOWN SO WE REPLACED THAT (MAKING IT DRIVEABLE) AND BROUGHT IT IN TO A DIFFERENT HYUNDAI SERVICE DEPT. THEY DIDNT CHARGE ME TO TELL ME THAT IT HAD BLOWN A ROD AND I NEEDED A NEW ENGINE. HYUNDAI IS REFUSING TO DO ANYTHING HOWEVER DID CALL THE SEXIST JERKS FROM THE ORIGINALLY HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP AND USED THAT INTERACTON AS BASIS TO SAY MY CAR IS FINE...

MY VELOSTER TURBO CONSUMES BETWEEN 3-4 QUARTS OF OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGE. I HAVE THE 100,000 MILE WARRANTY ON THE POWER TRAIN BUT THEY WILL NOT LOOK AT THE ENGINE UNTIL WE PREFORM A OIL CONSUMPTION TEST WHICH REQUIRES ME TO BRING THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP EVERY 1000 MILES IN ORDER FOR THEM TO LOOK AT THE ENGINE. I'VE BROUGHT IT TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS AND KEEP GETTING DIFFERENT EXCUSES AS TO WHY THIS PROBLEM EXIST. THE SHOP MANAGER EXPLAINED THE ISSUE THIS LAST TIME, SO THEY KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS, THEY JUST WILL NOT FIX IT OR LOOK AT IT, UNTIL WE PERFORM THIS "TEST". IF WE CONTINUE AT THIS PACE MY CAR WILL BE OVER 100,000 MILES AND THE WARRANTY WILL BE VOIDED. I HAVE PERFORMED ALL OF MY OIL CHANGES ON TIME. HYUNDAI WILL NOT HONOR THEIR WARRANTY ON THE POWER TRAIN.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET AND THE ENGINE JUST STARTED SMOKING. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AND I GOT IT TOWED TO THE MECHANIC AND THEY SAID IT WAS DUE TO TOO MUCH PRESSURE ON THE CYLINDERS THAT CAUSED THE ENGINE TO BLOW.. APPARENTLY THIS IS A RECALL NOW.. RECALL 182. I CAN NO LONGER MOVE THE CAR BECAUSE THE ENGINE IS BLOWN AS WELL AS ITS ABOUT $5000 TO FIX..
