Whenever I start the car it has a timing chain issue that gives a knocking sound for at least 3 seconds. That is the most famous manufacturer problem of this car but seems like no one cares and there is no recall. When I complained to my dealer about this he said your car has a salvage title and we cannot fix it, even though it is manufacturer issue and it has to be done.
I have the same problem on my Cadenza. First when I took it to the dealer they said it's normal for this car. It didn't sound normal to me so I insisted on getting them to fix it. It's been a year about 6 trips back to the dealer they still can't figure out the problem. Now I have vibration as well.
