The failure caused major electronic communication errors, illuminated dashboard warning lights, and placed the vehicle into Limp Mode, rendering it unsafe to drive. Because the failure occurred prior to receiving a formal owner notification in the mail and the vehicle was un-drivable, I paid $1,300.54 out-of-pocket on November 17th 2023 to replace the failed ABS module.  Hyundai Corporate has twice denied reimbursement, arguing that Recall 251 only covers a multi-fuse replacement and claiming internal fluid leaks are not covered. This contradicts NHTSA 23V-651 documentation, which explicitly identifies internal ABS module fluid leaks and electrical shorts as the core safety defect. Installing a fuse current-limiter cannot repair an already-ruined ABS circuit board or resolve a safety-mandated Limp Mode. I am reporting this to document on the official public record that Hyundai is actively denying reimbursement for the exact root-cause failure identified in NHTSA Campaign 23V-651.  PLEASE NOTE: This report is submitted solely to document Hyundai Motor America's non-compliance and improper reimbursement denial for official record-keeping under Campaign 23V-651.

Hyundai initially denied an engine replacement based on mileage. I escalated the matter to Hyundai Motor America Corporate Consumer Affairs. Hyundai has now confirmed in writing that, because my vehicle is more than eight years old and has more than 150,000 miles, Hyundai is applying the high-mileage provision of the Theta II settlement and will not replace the engine. Instead, Hyundai is offering either a repurchase or $2,000 in lieu of engine replacement.  I understand that Hyundai is relying on the court-approved settlement. My concern is specifically whether Hyundai\u2019s application of that settlement to my vehicle is consistent with the administration of Recall 162 and the federal safety-recall remedy, given that my vehicle is experiencing the engine failure that Recall 162 was designed to address.

Excessive engine oil consumption was confirmed with failure during manufacturer testing. Vehicle emits occasional burning oil smell when idling after 10 miles+ driving.  Vehicle failed a 1,000-mile oil consumption test following a \u201cDynamic Engine Clean\u201d performed by a certified independent mechanic, with documented oil loss of approximately 2 quarts. Vehicle subsequently failed a dealer-administered oil consumption test, with documented oil loss of approximately 2.3 quarts within 1,000 miles.  Engine oil levels have dropped to critically low levels between checks despite active monitoring and maintenance. This condition presents a risk of engine seizure, sudden loss of power while driving, and potential engine compartment fire due to oil consumption or leakage.  The issue has been reproduced and documented by both an independent mechanic and a Hyundai dealership. Despite confirmed excessive oil consumption, the manufacturer has delayed corrective action and has required repeated oil consumption testing and engine cleaning procedures rather than proceeding with repair.

Nothing was resolved,. I have been adding oil myself and getting oil changes regularly since. At 146,000 miles it's been worse.  After just 2,000 miles after an oil change it was below low,  my mechanic topped it off 3 weeks ago and I've had to add oil since. Took my car to Jerry's Huyndai, Weatherford, Texas on December 29,2025. Due to oil consumption,  smoke, smell, and I'm wondering if the vibrating is from the engine or if I need new spark plugs. I was told that my valve cover gasket needs to be replaced. I feel like I'm still getting the run around and the car can't keep oil above low level. I've never seen oil under the car and when i took the car to Vandergriff in 2020 and 2021 they didn't see a leak they said. I also took my car in 8/21 and had the ABS repaired and as of recent its out again.  I took my car into an independent mechanic shop today 1/2/2026 and he said he felt that the valve cover gasket is not the main problem he feels it would be a waste of money until the engine is replaced. I also heard a new noise today not knocking but tapping noise while driving. My car has hesitated recently, but Jerrys huyndai didnt have that happen while driving it. My car would be available for inspection any time requested. I am just concerned about the smoking if it will get worse, is there a risk of fire and I'm disabled, so I'm concerned if I will have a problem getting out of the car in time if that were to happen or if the car would stop in the middle of the street. This is my only car and I care for 2 sons that are disabled.  I need a safe car. Also, the car manager Rachel at Jerry's Huyndai seemed focused that I would be charged 225.00 if it was not the rod bearings.  It just seemed like she more focused on that instead of finding the problem.  The only lights on is the ABS.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2013","productMake":"HYUNDAI","productModel":"SANTA FE SPORT","manufacturer":"Hyundai Motor America"}]},{"odiNumber":11708246,"manufacturer":"Hyundai Motor America","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"12/26/2025","dateComplaintFiled":"01/01/2026","vin":"5xyzu3lb8dg","components":"UNKNOWN OR OTHER","summary":"As driving, the passenger side rear wheel disconnected from the subframe.

CAR WAS TAKEN FOR REPAIR WHERE WE FOUND OUT THAT THE 10/100K MY POWER TRAIN WARRANTY IS ONLY VALID FOR THE FIRST OWNER. THAT IS A LOAD OF CRAP AND A PATHETIC WAY FOR MANUFACTURERS TO GIVE THESE WARRANTIES OUT WITHOUT HAVING TO COVER THE FULL TERM, AS MOST PEOPLE TRADE EVERY 50-60K MILES, OR LESS. THE 10/100K WARRANTY WAS SOLD ON THE CAR BUT ENDED WITH A NEW OWNER AT 32K ON THE ODOMETER, NOW AT JUST OVER 60K MAJOR FAILURE. THIS SEEMS A LITTLE UNJUST TO ME.

SO IN SHORT, I WILL NEVER BY ANOTHER HYUNDAI AGAIN AFTER THEIR UNWILLINGNESS TO TAKE THIS GROSS AND POTENTIALLY CATASTROPHIC FAILURE WITH ANY CONCERN OR SERIOUNESS AND HIDE BEHIND SOME CLAUS THAT BASICALLY SAYS THAT THEIR SPOKEN 10YR/100K WARRANTY IS WORTHLESS !!!!","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2013","productMake":"HYUNDAI","productModel":"SANTA FE SPORT","manufacturer":"Hyundai Motor America"}]},{"odiNumber":11133217,"manufacturer":"Hyundai Motor America","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"10/03/2018","dateComplaintFiled":"10/03/2018","vin":"5XYZUDLA5DG","components":"ENGINE","summary":"WHILE DRIVING MYSELF AND MY 3 YEAR OLD SON ON THE FREEWAY HEADED TO DROP HIM OFF AT THE SITTER PRIOR TO GOING TO WORK I LET OFF MY GAS WHILE DRIVING A GOOD 65MPH AND MY CAR CONTINUED TO DRIVE WHILE MY FOOT WAS NOT ON THE PEDAL TO ACCELERATE NOT ONLY WAS MY CAR DRIVING ON ITS OWN AS IF IT WERE IN CRUSE CONTROL BUT MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT AT THE SAME TIME THIS WAS OCCURRING.
