On June 18, 2022 I experienced a knocking noise from under the hood of my 2017 Hyundai Tucson Sport, after a regular day of driving - just reaching 80,000 miles on the odometer. I immediately checked the oil and the dipstick was completely dry. There were never any indication lights or alerts to warm me of low oil or engine issues. I had 1,000 miles left until my next oil change, and have always kept up on routine maintenance - I have all records as evidence. I have called Hyundai customer service, filed a claim, and within the next few days they closed the case and said they would not cover costs of a new engine. I took my vehicle in for a diagnostic test, results came back as -??internal failure in the engine bearing-?? - the mechanic said it would be around $9,700 to replace.

The 2017 Hyundai Tuscan dual clutch transmission is seizing and unable accurate above 40 -45 mph. It is also unable to engage into reverse. It will shift into reverse, however will not move even when one places their foot on the gas pedal. The Hyundai Tucson seized while driving and I was almost hit in traffic. The dealerships in the Austin area have not been helpful as the closest they state they could look at it is November or December 2022 for a diagnostic and they are not willing to honor the powertrain warranty. After doing some research it seems a commen issue among Tuscan owners and is very similar to the issue Hyundai had with recall # 149 as related to the 2016 model. The vehicle is hazardous and unsafe to drive. The vehicle is putting the safety of myself and others at risk. There was no warning what so ever until later in the day when the check engine light came on. It is available for inspection.

This car was bought in 2019 from Car Max. Every few months, I get a check engine light and was part of a recall notice. I went to Hyndai Dealer CMA's Colonial Hyndai in Chester VA 23831 with the recall notice. They gave me a receipt that there are no issues on 17th May 22which was incorrect. My check engine light keeps coming on for an oil change and I had an emergency travelling from Viriginia to Atlanta and have to pull over to the closest repair shop where they indicated that recall issue was not resolved as the engine was consuming more oil faster resulting in the check engine light. I was surprised to hear that as the dealer indicated that there are no issues with regards to the recall. This was unacceptable from a dealer who was supposed to diagnose the problem and let the customer know that the engine problem still exists and you need to have engine oil changed every 2 months. If an engine recall indicates the engine requires a replacement they should have done an honest job and not fill the engine oil and let the customer know that there are no issues. I have all the documentation from the dealer that no issues were found but every day I drive, I am worried that car could stop anytime which is unnecessary stress owning this car. Any help in escalating this issue with the dealer or Hyundai in doing the right thing for their defective manufacturing will be appreciated.

After the repairs and driving home from the dealership, the engine and air conditioning started making weird noises and the following warning lights went on: ABS, power steering, and electronic stability control.

Within two days after brining the car back to the dealership, the same problem occurred. And now the car will not even turn on.
