2nd engine I paid for. Engine has no oil leaks no burning oil. Out of nowhere engine starts knocking no oil in engine. And now due to a bankrupcy I can't even purchase a new car and I can't afford to replace the engine at my cost again. Jones Hyundai was contacted the first time and the did nothing.

I heard something drop and then the car started smoking. I pulled to the side of the highway, turned off the car, and went to open the hood, but saw flames. The entire front half was engulfed in flames. A couple years ago I had to get an engine replacement due to oil over consumption. The same issues started happening again and the dealership was not helpful with getting the situation figured out.

Brakes lose of brake pressure when bumps are hit. Reapply brakes to regain pressure engine burning oil issues and overheating issues. This has resulted in my 1. 6 l having engine failure and it is not on the recall list as the 2. 0's and up are. Being that they are the same motor other than the size of pistons and turbo confuses me.

I was losing oil without an obvious oil leak. The psi in the 3rd cylinder was 90 and when spark plugs were replaced the new ones were covered in oil. I was told I needed a new engine. I contacted Hyundai and they told me to take it to a certified Hyundai mechanic and have them diagnose it and submit a repair assistance request as I was the second owner and the car is 8 years old with 80,000 miles. It cost $700 for the diagnostic and I was told I needed a new engine. Hyundai denied the repair assistance request and I had to pay $700 for the diagnostic. Neither the repair shop or Hyundai thought to tell me that I should do an oil consumption test because doing so would have likely made Hyundai responsible like many of the other engine recalls they are dealing with. I have since had to replace the engine myself.
Is burning to much oil and mostly times smoke my car just have 110,543 miles. . .

I had problems with my engine. Found out the rod bearing was gone. Call Hyundai and power train warranty expire weeks before it happened. Had to swap engines on the car because it was bad. Always had problems with the engine burning oil really bad. I also had problems with the transmission gears dropping out of no were. Last time it happened when I when to make a right turn and shift it into 2nd gear and when it shift to 3rd it drop to 1. Thankfully there wasn't any other car behind me. It would of definitely cost an accident and had my 1 year old with me. I talk to Hyundai and told me they couldn't do much about it because they didn't know about anyone else with same issues.
On Friday, 1/31/19, my son as driving home from work and his check engine light and oil indicator light went on. He took the car (my12 Hyundai Veloster) to pep boys for service the following morning, sat. 2/1/20, and described what happened. They inspected the car and advised the oil seemed to be burning faster than normal, but did an oil change. They advised if the warning lights came on again, to take it to Hyundai. They also advised we would need to bring the car in for oil changes approx. Every 3k miles, rather than 5-7k miles. No concern was communicated to keep driving the car. The next day, Sunday, 2/2/20, he was entering the 605 fwy (south) at firestone blvd in norwalk, CA and he heard a rattling in the engine, then saw black smoke coming from the engine. He pulled the car over on the shoulder, then saw flames coming from the engine. He exited the vehicle safely and called 911. The car became engulfed in blames and was totaled. The fire dept put out the fire. The chp officer pointed out the trail of oil on the shoulder where my son had driven and pulled over. Upon doing some internet research after the fire, we saw that my13 Hyundai Velosters had a recall for an issue that could lead to engine fires. We have had all regular service done on the car at pep boys and had not had any prior engine issues.
Burns oil and makes noisy when hit the gas pedal also it pushes it self when stoping.
The air/fuel mixture in the engine caused the oil to burn through faster than it should, increased pressure and caused the cylinder to damage the engine. This resulted in me having to replace the engine. The electrical system caused the vehicle to idle rough at low rpm, and eventually stalled at an intersection on a busy highway.
Engine is burning up oil. No visible leaks. Have taken it to dealership twice but I'm adding more than a quart each month.
