Driving down the road at 65 mph, the engine started making a ticking noise. Further down the road the ticking became knocking. This prompted the command center to tell me to turn the vehicle off immediately. The vehicle would no longer crank and was giving a camshaft sensor code. I received a recall notice 5 days later. Had the vehicle towed to the dealership. After being told I would need a new engine, and that it wasn't a recall issue, I called national. After a week or so it was confirmed that Hyundai would replace the motor at their expense. Never confirming it was because of the recall though I had all the symptoms other than catching on fire. It has now been 2 months and my motor is supposedly on back order, but coming in weekly. Hyundai seems to really be dragging there feet though they lost a lawsuit over motor issues before.
Mileage approx 68,000 with regular oil changes, the engine made loud clanking sounds upon startup. Car was towed to dealer where diagnosis was catastrophic engine failure due to connecting rod bearings wearing prematurely despite sufficient oil in reservoir. Car has been at van nuys, CA hundyai dealer since early November 2020. In early December, hundyai posted a recall 198 which specified connecting rod bearing wearing prematurely on their "safety recalls and service campaigns" website page. However, my VIN number references no recalls. Meanwhile, the long block engine in my model is no longer available or manufactured. A short block would have to be adapted. Hundyai offered a 75% of repair "good will" payment, but that was before their admission of problems with the connecting rods. I notice on your site that others have the same problem. I've had to rent a car for twelve weeks with no end in sight. The dealership would charge me at least $1600 as my 25% of the repair. Hundyai should pay 100% and reimburse me my car rental expenses. I still have no idea when the car will be repaired. It is sitting at the dealer.
When accelerating there is a ticking noise coming from engine. This has been happening for a while after I got the update and new wiring harness from the campaign. I'm scared to drive my car, I accelerate slowly because I get nervous it will blow up. I took this car to a Hyundai dealership and they quoted me over 500 dollars for this repair and it might not even fix it.

On September 1,2019 my car wouldnt start. I purchased a battery and a it turned over. On September 8th I drove to get a oil change and tune up which seemed abnormal when I got home. There was a ticking noise. I wasnt sure what was causing the ticking noise so I didnt drive the car. On September 9th I got into car and started it when I noticed a knocking noise, the noise accelerated once I pressed on gas pedal so I didnt want to drive it. My check engine light is rapidly blinking.

While driving my vehicle when I go to accelerate there is a clicking or ticking noise and the car acts as if it doesn't want to accelerate. I've tried getting a mechanic to look at the vehicle and have even replaced parts but the problem continues. I tried looking online and I find a lot of people having the same issue.
When depressing the brake my car is making a clicking noise. Went to the dealer and he said it is normal. Previously it was little but now days it is making loud noise while driving. When we depress the brake and try to change the gear from p to d the gear rod is making same clicking noise. When read forums I heard that it is the problem with the solenoid but the dealer does not want to do because he has to do it for free. When asked the dealer he said that it does not come under warranty. Now the noise is really loud and no one is helping me out.
