I WAS NOTIFIED OF THE NHTSA RECALL NUMBER 17V226000 A FEW MONTHS. I BELIEVE THAT THE ISSUE WITH THE ENGINE SHOULD BE ADDRESSED AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE SINCE MANY OF THE AFFECTED VEHICLES ARE BEING DRIVING IN THE NATION'S ROAD. THE RECALL WAS SENT OUT IN MARCH 31, 2017 AND SO FAR THERE HAS BEEN NO REMEDY. THE VEHICLE OWNERS ARE ENTITLED TO A REMEDY TO PREVENT ANY FUTURE DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE.

I RECEIVED A LETTER REGARDING ABOUT SAFETY RECALL 160, REGARDING FRONT SEAT ANCHOR AND EXTENDED WARRANTY TXX7, FOR MOTOR DRIVEN POWER STEERING COUPLING.I ALSO WANT TO MENTION THAT THE CAR HAS HAS HAD A WEIRD "CLAN NOISE" THAT I THINK COMES FROM THE NEAR WHEN IT IS IN MOTION OR SOMETIMES EVEN AFTER IT IS PARKED. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR 2 TIMES FOR THIS TO BE CHECKED, BUT APPARENTLY, THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS, BECAUSE IT IS HAPPENING, EVERY TIME MORE NOTICEABLE.I WORRY THAT THIS COULD BE A DANGEROUS MAKING THE CAR TO MALFUNCTION. I WISH THIS MATTER COULD BE SOLVED.

I HAVE A 2013 HYUNDAI, VIN: [XXX], THAT HAD A RECALL ON THE ENGINE FOR POSSIBILITY OF SEIZING UP. IT JUST SO HAPPENED THAT IT ACTUALLY HAPPENED LAST WEEK (THURSDAY, JUNE 8, 2017). I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO ANTWERPEN HYUNDAI, 6440 BALTIMORE NATIONAL PIKE, CATONSVILLE, MD 21228 WHERE I HAVE BEEN HAVING THE CAR SERVICED. THEY HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET A RESOLUTION FROM HYUNDAI SINCE THAT TIME BUT HAVE NOT HAD SUCCESS. I DO NOT HAVE TRANSPORTATION TO GET TO WORK, MY CHILDREN TO THEIR APPOINTED PLACES, ETC AND NO ONE HAS AUTHORIZED ME A RENTAL CAR OR LOANER CAR. I?M GETTING VERY DISTRAUGHT AT THIS TIME DUE TO LACK OF CONCERN FOR MY WELL BEING WHEN THE CAR?S PROBLEM IS CLEARLY A PROBLEM WITH MANUFACTURING AS THE CAR ONLY HAS 43,000 MILES ON IT AS WELL.

THERE WAS A LOUD CLICKING NOISE AND WHEN TAKING OUR CAR IN THERE WAS NO PROBLEM AT THE TIME. ALL OF A SUDDEN THERE WAS A HORRIBLE LOUD KNOCKING NOISE AND THEN THERE SEEM TO BE NO POWER WHEN TRYING TO DRIVE IT. WHEN HAVING A MECHANIC LOOK AT IT THEY SAID THAT THE PISTON WAS LOSE AND ALSO IT LOOKED LIKE THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE FLOW OF THE OIL THAT WAS GOING IN TO THE ENGINE. BASICALLY HE SAID THE BEARING FAILED AND THAT'S WHY OUR CAR STALLED. LUCKILY IT STALLED WHILE WE WERE IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. HIS CONCLUSION WAS THAT WE WOULD NEED A COMPLETELY NEW ENGINE. IT HASN'T BEEN DRIVABLE FOR MONTHS NOW. WE CAN'T AFFORD TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE ENGINE.
