Driving along the interstate when engine had reduced engine power for a moment, then stalled around 70mph. Made it to an exit ramp luckily. Engine hesitated to restart, once it did start engine started knocking and had next to no power. Towed to Hyundai dealer, Hyundai dealer stated that Hyundai has had major problems with these engines and Hyundai should cover it fully. Dealership proceeded to pull oil pan and valve cover without our consent and with no communication for days. Confirmed the engine was bad, metal shavings in oil pan, rod bearings failed. Common problem. Waiting on Hyundai for approval. Service advisor quit, we were informed 6 days later that Hyundai is only willing to cover 65% of cost and we would have to pay 35% ($3,500. 0) out of pocket. We refused to pay; they stated we would have to pay diagnosis, but they ended up waiving that. Technicians did not fully secure oil pan or valve cover. Oil under car where it was parked, have photos and videos to back this claim up. Have rental car and many tow bills in to the mix now. Why would the dealer tell us Hyundai fully cover this but they don�t? we need this issue fixed. Many other Tucson owners deal with the same problem, with the same engine as the other cars, but theirs get replaced free or charge and expenses paid by Hyundai.

On Saturday may 4, 2019, my son was on guard duty at vmi and he lent his car to his close friend and roommate to attend a family event in arlington, va. After about 100 miles on the road while matt agnew was driving it on interstate 81 going north, the car started to slow suddenly, and the engine and gas light came on the dashboard, with no other earlier warning. He had to scan the area quickly to make sure other drivers were paying attention as he was quickly dropping below the minimum speed limit. This same thing was happening to multiple car owners of this make/model year. The car downright stop running in the middle of the interstate, with no warning. This put my son's long-time friend and room mate at risk! every service and tow station within 60 miles of harrisonburg were busy or closed. This sudden stall issue was known on 2/5/2019 and with your systems knowing the current owner, address, and my vehicle #, there is no excuse for not alerting me! I have incurred additional towing fees because I had my son's friend towed to the closest residential area off the highway where there was a local service station. Come to find out after they did a once over the car, that there were metal shavings in the oil and the tech had to hand-crank the engine to get it started. In other words, it met all the criteria for this issue known by Hyundai. I have had my vehicle regularly serviced at the Hyundai dealer service twice in December 2018, November 2018, and many other times before this. Nothing was ever mentioned to me about this deficiency. I have called and sent email and letters asking Hyundai to repair this known manufacturer defect. Every place near the tow address was closed. I drove above the speedlimit as it was hot and humid and they were not in airconditioning.
Engibe stalled on the highway, almost killed me.
