ON NOVEMBER 10, 2020, I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, AND MY CAR OUT OF THE BLUE STARTED KNOCKING. AS I KEPT DRIVING ABOUT 1/2 MILE THE KNOCKING GOT WORSE. I HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, WHEN I DID, MY ENGINE QUIT AND STALLED. I WAS ABLE TO START IT BACK UP, BUT IT CONTINUES TO KNOCK. THE CAR IS NOT FIXABLE, THERE ARE NO MOTORS AVAILABLE FOR THE CAR, AS HYUNDAI HAS STOPPED MAKING 2016 MOTORS. IM STUCK WITH A 12K LOAN ON A CAR THAT I CAN NOT DRIVE.

I'M NOT SURE THE EXACT DATE BUT I KNOW ONE DAY I WAS DRIVING FINE AND THEN LATER THAT NIGHT I WENT TO GET GAS AND MY CAR WAS ACTING FUNNY AND NOT WANTING TO GO FORWARD IN DRIVE UNTIL IT KICKED BACK AND THEN WENT.

IN THE PAST 6 MONTHS MY REAR WINDOW IS BUBBLING BETWEEN THE WINDOW. IF IT CONTINUES IT LOOKS LIKE THE WINDOW WILL SEPERATE OR SHATTER. IT LOOKS LIKE MOISTURE GOT IN BETWEEN THE GLASS AND TINT.

MY ENGINE, WITHOUT ANY PRIOR WARNING SIGNS, SUDDENLY STARTED TO MAKE A KNOCKING NOISE APPROXIMATELY 5 MINUTES AFTER DRIVING IT. WITHIN A FEW MILES ON THE HIGHWAY, THE SOUND GOT LOUDER AND HEAVIER, AND THE ACCELERATION BECAME VERY WEAK. I PULLED OVER AND STOPPED THE CAR. WHEN I TRIED TO RESTART IT WAS SO HESITANT TO DO SO THAT I CALLED FOR A TOW. UPON INSPECTION THE ENGINE WAS CONSIDERED DEAD AND HAD TO BE VERY EXPENSIVELY REBUILT. I KEEP UP WITH MY REGULARLY SCHEDULED OIL CHANGES AND HAVE MAINTAINED THE CAR PROPERLY FOR THE DURATION OF MY OWNERSHIP. THIS MALFUNCTION CAME OUT OF NOWHERE AND WAS NO FAULT OF MY OWN.

SHAFT AND STEERING KOPLER BROKEN.. NO ONE ELSE CAN FIX IT BUT THE DEALER. MULTIPLE COMPLAINS ONLINE
