    The engine is consuming oil. After 500 miles since my last oil change the oil DOES NOT show up on the oil stick. The engine warning light came on and Oil leak from engine, I have taken the vehicle to the dealership and they thought it was an oil cap plug not put in correctly. But oil leak still happen and the engine warning light keeps turn on. Every day i have to check oil level to make sure it not go below the minimum and I keep on adding oil. The dealership can't give me answers as to the problem. I have had the vehicle for a year with no issues until 2 months ago when this started.

    I went to a drive through car wash. Put my car in neutral and it drives your car through the wash. Once it was done I changed to drive and tapped lightly to get out. I was going to have the car wash attendant wipe down my car. As I approached him my brakes wouldn’t work and the car continued to accelerate despite not pressing down on the gas pedal. None of my electrical lights were working. It took me onto a busy street in Chicago and kept accelerating at full speed. I was trying to brake, put it into neutral or drive, use emergency brake system and nothing was working. I was swerving to avoid hitting other cars or pedestrians. I erratically drove about 1.5 blocks until I hit another SUV. All my airbags deployed. My full trauma work up was negative at the hospital. I am not sure if anyone sustained major injuries in the other car. I filed an insurance claim and my car was deemed a total loss. Insurance company thinks there was definitely an electrical shortage but did not further investigate. They said it would take more money to investigate the cause rather than paying a lump sum for car. I filed a claim case with Hyundai 2 days after the accident. The initial representative said a case manager would call within 5-7 business days and would like the car preserved in case of investigation. I have called over 5 times and have never received a call back nor an initial call from the case manager assigned. There was no active recalls out at the time and the car was serviced a month prior at a Hyundai dealership. Since the accident occurred we received a new recall that the anti-lock brake system could malfunction and cause an electrical short. But according to recall notice there is still no remedy available.

    There was no incident. I was in a chat with an NHTSA agent regarding the fact that the manufacturer has not provided a resolution. Until recently, your site indicated a date of 4/5 to correct this problem. I rec'd my first notice from the manufacturer on 4/4. It merely advised that there was a recall. No fix was given. I came back to NHTSA's website to see if there was any update. There was none, except the 4/5 date was no longer given. I then started a chat. The agent on the chat said everything was left up to the manufacturer. This is listed as an "urgent" recall, yet the manufacturer has provided no intended resolution for over two months. I asked the agent how I could file a complaint. She gave me this web address. As i stated, there has been no incident, yet.
