My 2021 Hyundai venue at or around 43,000 miles, certified pre owned, and bought January 2024 while at a gas station parking lot. Started my vehicle and put it in reverse to leave gas station began smoking, as I put it back in drive to get out of traffic was a loud noise and I immediately stopped turned off the car. Found two parts from my engine on the ground in the parking lot. Was towed to Bentley Hyundai dealership in Huntsville, Al. This happened on [XXX]. On or about 7/29/2024 Bentley Hyundai did a diagnostic and I was told I need an engine replacement, Hyundai approved the engine replacement, and they ordered parts. On or about 8/7/2024 I asked Hyundai for the repair order and on the paper they gave me said the harmonic balancer/crank shaft broke. I spoke to one of the mechanics at Hyundai as I needed to get some personal items out of my car and the gentleman I spoke with said he doesn-??t know how this happened that a bolt broke but that bolt was not supposed to break like it did. Said -??it was pretty cool to see-??. My vehicle still currently sits at Bentley Hyundai until parts come in. My vehicle was purchased at Tameron Hyundai in Hoover, Al.

Lost all acceleration and car started bucking while making a a left through oncoming traffic narrowly avoiding getting t boned on passenger side of vehicle with my child on that side of vehicle. No check engine light or codes during or after incident. Even though the car was now not idling correctly. had car towed to dealer for the fifth time and they reprogrammed the transmission for the third time. They called to tell me it was ready for pick up. I refused and asked that they diagnose the issue since it has become dangerous to drive the vehicle. They drove the car looking at live data and discovered the transmission was slipping. And replaced the transmission. Someone is going to get seriously injured in these vehicles if the vehicles computer is unable to warn the driver about a catastrophic power train failure. I have had this car towed five times due to issues which assumably were all due to the failing transmission but were non repeatable at the dealer putting me in danger every time I picked it up.
