Oil is leaking from the turbo oil feed hose onto the hot engine, hot exhaust and engine undercover that has a potential for a fire hazard in addition to toxic fumes from oil burning seeping into the car.

My check engine light turned on and my car has power hesitation during acceleration. This happend 1-2 days out of the week until the forth time it happened the check engine light stayed on and continues to have power hesitation as well as high idling at all times, burning oil, smoke coming from the exhaust, and the brakes are extremely hard when needing to brake. I took it to a local mechanic and they did a diagnostic that returned a code of p0010 and they referred me to a Hyundai dealership for repair. I was also given a technical service bulletin with a campaign number of 15-01-022-1. I took it to the dealership and they also came back with the same code. I have paid for the parts and diagnostic and they couldn't give an estimate of when the parts would be available because they are on back order. Here I am two weeks later calling the dealership to follow up and was told by the parts department that they contacted Hyundai directly and there are 1800 of those parts on back order with an estimated time of being at least two months for the parts to come in. Hyundai also stated that they have submitted a high priority for them. I will be without a vehicle for who knows how long.
When engine is running oil leaks from engine and on to exhaust causing smoke to come out from under the hood and the smell of burning oil to enter the cabin.

The week of 2/3/20 I reported my vehicle's lose of power at interstate speeds and the illumination & chiming of the check engine light. I took the car to the dealer where they ran engine diagnostics and began an oil consumption test. On 3/2/20 the vehicle again lost power on the interstate. Again I took it to the dealer where they did the t3g campaign. Yesterday 3/17/20 the engine light came on and remained on for 5 starts of the engine. The dealer could not replicate the symptom on 3/18/20. The vehicle failed the oil consumption test by 363 miles and the dealer is submitting a claim for a new engine. This model year car has serious defects and may not be safe to drive.
Engine oil consumption: more than 1 quarter every 1,000 miles but the mechanic did not find any leaking. The vehicle has total 55,000 miles and I drive about 1000 miles/month on freeway and local streets. I also found many reports on the websites and many Hyundai dealers had tested the oil consumption and waiting to the response from Hyundai headquarters.
Hi NHTSA, I drive a 2015 Hyundai Sonata and followed all the recommended maintenance. I started to notice my oil level was below low after 2000 miles at 47000 on the vehicle. I thought it was not filled correctly and had my mechanic check it. Also, I told my Hyundai dealership in laurel, MD about the finding. I decided to top off my oil and closely monitor the status. On my next oil change, after 2000 miles my oil was low again. I add roughly 1. 5 qts to top it off. I brought my car until Hyundai for an oil consumption test. The mechanic did not note how much oil he started as the baseline; however, the dip stick was over the full mark. After 3000 miles, my oil was at the low level. Per Hyundai owner manual, I can drive 7500 miles between oil changes with non - extreme driving. Hyundai stated my car was not consuming oil, and this is normal.
Engine has to many recalls did all of them. Engine staring shaking and burning oil and consuming fuel. This vehicle could be a hazard or can stop in middle of highway and provoking accident or death.

I've been having an oil consumption issue on my vehicle. I've been getting my oil changed on time regularly & the oil seems to burn off extremely faster than it should. Every time I get my oil changed I've been told that there aren't any leaks. Now my check engine light is on & my engine is shaking. Ive only had my car for 3 years & my air bag light came on out of no where. Also my gear shift seems to lock up & wont release from park to drive.
Disappearing oil. For years now my car has been progressively using oil. Now I can't even go a week without putting in more oil and it has fouled spark plugs and left me stranded twice now, and continues to excessively consume oil. I finally got tired of this at 130k miles and took it to reliable Hyundai in springfield, mo. This dealership has been completely useless in offering any help, answers, or solutions. They've already charged me $400 for a �combustion chamber cleaning� - told me I would be reimbursed if it didn't work, then when it was obvious it didn't work they did not refund me. They have made me jump through hoops in hopes I will eventually get a new engine, but repeatedly remind me ultimately that may not happen. In 2 months I have had to go to reliable Hyundai, missing work, 11 times for their oil consumption test when it's obvious nothing is going to change because �that's Hyundai's protocol. I am going to lose my job for attendance and even after that, Hyundai still might not fix the issue. Horrible company, with horrible practices and customer service. Now I'm stuck with a car that has lost a tremendous amount of value, continues to devour oil, and Hyundai doesn't want to do anything about it until after I go there nearly 15 times. Unacceptable. When I bought my car I didn't get a �it'll prolly only make it to 140k miles� discount. Force Hyundai to recall all of their faulty engines for oil consumption as well! if I wasn't so diligent my engine would have seized by now. I shouldn't be punished for making sure my vehicle is properly maintained.
Engine has approximately 60,000 miles and burns between half to one quart of oil every 1,000 miles. Hyundai dealer performed an "oil consumption test" where they recorded oil level after 1,000 miles three times. After the first 1k miles it was down about half a quart of oil, same on second 1k miles, and about 1 quart on third 1k miles. Hyundai advised this is normal oil consumption and would not investigate further unless average use was more than 1 quart after 1k miles. The suggested oil change interval from Hyundai is 7,500 miles. At the rate of oil consumption the vehicle would be out of oil before the recommended service interval for oil changes.
I was told I need a need engine because of sludge indicating that I hadn't had regular oil changes. The car is two years old and I've had five oil changes. They won't pay for the engine but I've seen that this is an on going problem for these cars. Not my car is smoking even worst. They did three of the oil changes and another company that's now out of business did the others and I can't prove it because it was independently owned. . . There is no way to check the records. They completed an oil consumption test because we were losing oil. The car didn't start smoking until June 2017. We had been complaining since we had the car because it always seemed at this it didn't have any get up and go. They said that was because there are three different car modes; economy (which we always drive in), normal and sport. We never believed that. A police stopped my husband yesterday and said we can't drive the car with all that smoke pouring out the back. What am I to do? the car is only two years old! it had a little over 4k miles when we first purchased it. They said an oil change was completed prior to us purchasing the car. We never had any warning light that our oil was low.
At about 7000 mi. The engine began burning oil at 13 k mi. It has been to the dealer twice they say it is normal burning 3/4 qt in less than 3k miles is more pollution than normal I would think.
Engine oil consumption: 1 quarter every 1,000 miles and increasing.
