1 Engine Head Gasket Leaking problem

Failure Date: 04/16/2014

I am reporting this because I see other models with the same engine having the same problem. My valve cover gasket leaked oil onto the alternator and caused it to fail prematurely. This has happened in April of 2014 and has now happened again in June of 2015. Other models utilizing the same engine have been recalled due to this problem. Will this model be recalled?.

2 Engine Head Gasket Leaking problem

Failure Date: 04/06/2014

This car has the front valve cover gasket leak that other Hyundai vehicles with the v6 engine. It only leaks right in the same corner as all the others and it leaks right on to the alternator. I am on my second maybe third alternator. I ahve been lucky enough to have it not cause any injury's so far.
