My vehicle-??s check engine light is on, low oil pressure light is on, the engine is knocking, it-??s overheating, stalling, and loss of power and acceleration. I have almost gotten hit by other vehicles multiple times because the vehicle has stalled or won-??t accelerate. This has happened on the interstate and when pulling out into traffic. I have tried for days to an appointment at multiple Hyundai locations near me to get it fixed because it has all the symptoms that the recall says to look for. I called 5 dealerships and there are no appointments available. The earliest one is a week away. Customer care is no help at all. They basically told me to figure it out on my own. I am a single mother of 2 and now I have no transportation because of their faulty engine and they are doing nothing to help fix it. What if I get hit because my engine stalls and my kids are in the car with me" What if my engine catches fire because of this? I get shut down by every dealership and they won-??t even offer a loaner or rental in place of driving the death trap they sold me until they can fix it. What can I do?"
I took my 2016 Veloster in because my car was included in the rod bearing shavings possibly going back into engine and cause fire. I have since taken my car proven they didn-??t pull the filters out or the oil pan to look for shavings as it-??s should be check that way to ensure no findings of metal In oil. My car was in their service for over 28 hours without it being looked at. I called and somehow 15 minutes later the car is done and come get it and nothing is wrong ! I call BS my car is still a safety problem. I still have the bogging of the engine and times I press gas and car won-??t move. My family owns a collision shop grew up around cars still am and there is no way you can plug a computer into the module and it show you metal shavings. Can only be done by removing filter cutting it open and pulling the oil pan. I asked to see it and the refused ! I am not happy with my car and how it cannot drive normal and it-??s a serious safety concern. I want my engine replaced as the recall states or replace my entire car I-??m filing a law suit against Hyundai and their lack Of concern or lying and not properly handling such a Serious recall. Till you pull my engine and prove to me there is zero unwanted metal in my engine I will continue to contact news shows the news papers and motor trend. I refuse to be treated like I-??m an idiot when I had questions and asked them about the pan being pulled and filter removed they said we only need to connect it to the computer. That-??s a lie you cannot get metal settlement from a computer !! I have now had 2 other mechanics look at it and they will testify my engine needs to be pulled out replaced and or get me into a safe car or the lawsuit will only cost Hyundai

While driving 60 miles an hour on the interstate heading to work I begin to hear a knocking from my engine. I put my flashers on and begin to slow down because I begin to smell smoke. I was able to navigate into the nearest gas station and turn the car off. When I tried to restart the car it would not turn over. I checked the oil just to make sure because of the smell and the oil was depleted. I put three layers of oil into my car so I could get it started enough to get it to the express oil change nearby. I dropped my car off there and they performed a diagnostic test where they informed me that the engine had failed. I made a service appointment with my dealer who finally contacted me back today saying they would take a look at the car and let me know if it was part of the recall. I was never notified by Hyundai or my dealership that my engine was recalled. I currently am without a car and was told that a service vehicle may be provided if it's deemed that my engine failed due to the recalled issue. I have already spent $200 in uber rides.
