1 Engine Oil Leaking problem of the 2007 Hyundai Azera

Head gasket corrodes and starts leaking oil onto alternator causing the alternator to short out and flash engine lights. Other makes with same engine for Hyundai had a recall for the same problem. The 2007 Hyundai Azera was not. I had repairs to this problem in the amount of $1500+.

2 Engine Oil Leaking problem of the 2008 Hyundai Azera

Failure Date: 08/20/2016

Oil leaks from the front cylinder bank straight into the alternator causing it to fail prematurely. The NHTSA issued a recall for this exact same issue for the 2006-2012 Hyundai veracruz (NHTSA campaign number: 14v415000). You concluded in the consequence paragraph "an unexpected failure of motive power while driving increases the risk of a crash. " I'm deeply concerned of this happening with my Hyundai Azera as it currently has oil leaking into the alternator. My Azera has 80k original miles. The Azera uses the exact same engine, front cylinder bank gasket, and alternator as the veracruz and subsequently suffers from the same problem that led to the recall issued for the Hyundai veracruz. Please review and compare my claim against the existing recall for the Hyundai veracruz as outlined above. I feel it's worth noting I also currently own a recall effected veracruz and have both vehicles for side by side comparison. I thank you for your time and efforts exploring this issue on my behalf and all other Hyundai Azera owners. Let me know if I can be of further assistance in this matter.

3 Engine Oil Leaking problem of the 2006 Hyundai Azera

Failure Date: 12/15/2013

While driving on us 95 at night my engine stopped runing. I was traving at 65 mph. At the time. The car was towed and later inspected. The inspection revealed that alternator had failed because oil had leaked from the valve cover gaskets directly onto the alternator which caused it to fail. This failure also affected the power steering & my lights as well . I was fortunate that my car was not struck as the traffic was heavy. .
