Engine light and engine shaking/sputtering on 8/27/2021 and car stalled out while on interstate at 55 mph. Car taken to Alexandria Hyundai on 8/30. Test confirmed that car failed engine piston test and was told that engine would be replaced. Call to Hyundai Corporation (case #18719921) on 10/7/2021 reveals that request by dealer for engine to be approved for replacement is "pending." It is now 10/11/2021 and car has not been repaired. I think 6 weeks and counting to remedy issue per recall now approaches "failed to remedy the defect within a reasonable time" and dealer should make repair/replacement a priority or replace vehicle at no cost as it only has 14k miles and is less than 1 year old (purchased on 5/31/2020).

My vehicle completely died while driving. It was as if I was pressing the gas pedal and I had run out of gas but I had a full tank. Electronics were fine however the engine was extremely hot beyond normal operating temperature with the engine and oil light flashing on and off. The sad part is I just had this vehicle inspected by Hyundai.
I was told not to drive this vehicle due to risk of crash and or fire. I have contacted Hyundai for 5 weeks and have gotten nowhere. I need this vehicle to drive to Florida from New Mexico on August 18,2021. I have made 37 calls to Hyundai with zero results. I have no other vehicle to drive. Please help. Thank you.

Recall 20321V301000HYUNDAI IS INITIATING A NEW RECALL CAMPAIGN 203, A SAFETY RECALL TO ADDRESS A CONDITION INVOLVING ENGINE FAILURES RESULTING IN A VEHICLE STALL & OR FIRE IN CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2019-2020 HYUNDAI ELANTRA, 2019-2021 HYUNDAI KONA, AND 2019-2021 HYUNDAI VELOSTER VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH 2.0- LITER "NU" MPI ENGINES AND PRODUCED FOR SALE IN THE U.S. AND CANADA. HYUNDAI IS INITIATING THIS ACTION TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF ITS VEHICLES. This vehicle I purchased brand new from Located in: Universal Hyndai Orlando Address: 12801 South, S Orange Blossom Trl, Orlando, FL 32837 on 1/1/2020. It has 9000 miles on it. This recall is scarey. Since receiving the notice on 4/23/21 there is no remedy on the recall"? So if something happens I will be sure to file a lawsuit to all those directly and indirectly involved. What is the remedy" You cannot issue a recall of this magnitude and do nothing for 3 months since sending out notices. I called Universal Hyndai and they said they cannot do anything without the remedy notification. They also told me they won't cover a loaner vehicle while in repair. I need to speak to someone that knows what is going on and who can handle the rectification of this issue properly. If not give me a replacement vehicle of the same.
Hello, I was instructed to reach out regarding a recall in my vehicle that is not being taken care of. I lease a 2020 Hyundai Kona. About 5 months ago my vehicle started making an odd noise from the engine. It then started stalling, completely turning off while I was driving Hello, I was instructed to reach out regarding a recall in my vehicle that is not being taken care of. I lease a 2020 Hyundai Kona. About 5 months ago my vehicle started making an odd noise from the engine. It then started stalling, completely turning off while I was in the middle of the road, driving it. I reached out to my Hyundai dealership who had me bring it in 3 times to check the oil. They told me that there was nothing they could do. I have since received a letter stating there is a recall on my vehicle but there is no remedy in place and they do not have courtesy cars. So I am stuck making payments on a leased vehicle that is completely unsafe to drive. I am unsure where to go from here. I look forward to your response. Thank you.
