Engine Belts And Pulleys Problems of Hyundai Veloster

2015 Hyundai Veloster turbo (original owner). The vehicle has three severe safety defects: trunk/hatch latch failure: the hatchback lift support/latch fails, refusing to stay open. It unexpectedly fell, which has caused repeated, severe impacts to my head and neck, resulting in an injury requiring surgery. I must manually prop it open with a Mini ball to load cargo. Engine & turbo failure / oil consumption: history of engine acceleration issues and turbo failures since 4,000 miles. At 44,000 miles, the turbo completely failed, the car started to whine, then rattle, and completely turned off. Dealer (Hyundai escondido) forced a $2,200 out-of-pocket replacement despite being under warranty, citing a lack of at-home oil change receipts. The vehicle now has a documented, rapid oil leak and excessive consumption issue that the dealer refuses to repair, despite being reported prior to warranty expiration. Seat belts: the front and rear seat belt latches are malfunctioning, intermittently releasing on their own, failing to release properly, or failing to latch securely, compromising the safety of a [xxx] passenger. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

Car was running fine, maybe a little loud on startup. Under a left hand turn on surface streets, adding power at about 30 mph, engine stalled in high 3rd gear with a check engine light, battery light, and low oil pressure light. I pulled over and could not get the car to restart (sounded like the alternator and belt were moving, but the motor would not turn over. ) got it towed to a dealership, where they are in the process of getting approval for a new motor. They claim that the motor lost all compression, and failed a bearing test. It would not surprise me if it was a bearing failure on the crankshaft, like others have mentioned on here. Should probably be under the recall that included the 2016 model year, as clearly that problem was not resolved in the 2017 model year gamma engines.
