I am reporting a severe and hazardous failure involving my 2019 Hyundai Accent. On August 8, 2025, between 9:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m., while driving on Mopac (Loop 1), a heavily traveled highway in Austin, Texas, the vehicle abruptly experienced an overheating issue without any prior warning. The engine rapidly lost power, causing the vehicle to become unstable in traffic. I managed to maneuver the vehicle to the far-right shoulder, but when I attempted to accelerate and further distance the car from the road, the engine failed completely, emitting a severe sound resembling an explosion followed by an immediate shutdown, rendering the vehicle inoperable. This failure posed an immediate safety hazard. The vehicle was disabled in a dark and high-speed traffic environment, significantly increasing the likelihood of being struck by other vehicles. During the incident, I encountered difficulty releasing my seatbelt, briefly confining myself inside. The sudden breakdown caused me severe distress, leading to a panic and an asthma attack. Although I did not seek medical attention, the physical and emotional consequences were substantial. Since the breakdown, the vehicle has remained completely undrivable and incapable of restarting. The issue has not been replicated due to the vehicle’s inoperability. Prior to this occurrence, I had maintained regular oil changes and performed necessary maintenance, and no warning lamps, error messages, or symptoms manifested before the failure occurred. The manufacturer has been notified, and I am awaiting review by a case manager. The vehicle hasn’t been inspected by a dealership yet. Following the towing of the vehicle to my residence, a mechanic was dispatched to conduct an inspection. The mechanic indicated that the engine may require replacement. However, insurance representatives subsequently arrived and were unable to provide assistance. They asserted that the issue was of a technical and electrical nature and deemed the vehicle a tot

About 8 months to a year ago my car started losing power and started using a lot of oil without an oil leak. Now it has a loud knocking noise in the engine. I have taken it to a mechanic and they said they some vehicles have recalls.

I was driving and all of a sudden my car was shaking and I lost my traction control and I could not stop my car with brakes. I have ABS and Traction control warning lights on in my vehicle.

WHEN YOU MADE A CLOSED TURN TO THE RIGHT, MADE A STRONG STRIKE ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE SUSPENSION. IT SOUNDED LIKE A LOOSE NUT IN AN ALUMINUM TRAY. ONE MONTH LATER IN MY HUSBAND DRIVING THE VEHICLE MADE THE RIGHT TURNING TO HEARD THE SOUND AND MADE THE APPOINTMENT TO DISCOVER THAT WAS THE JOINT SHAFT BOLT LOOSE.

my vehicle had a fuel injector lock open flooding the car until it damaged the O2 sensor and also contaminating the engine oil. the car went through about two and a half gallons of gas in 3 minutes. during the repair process I mentioned to the dealership that the engine oil smells like gas and was a quart and a half higher than what it was after the last oil change 5 days prior. I'm believing the Quart and a half was most certainly all gas. the dealership informed me they could not repair the oil as it was not covered under warranty. if I wanted to dispute the warranty I had to contact Hyundai customer service. That was April 25th 2023 and as of May 23rd 2023 despite repeated phone calls Hyundai customer service they have never called me back. there are 2 safety issues in regards to this 1. when the fuel injector locked open dumping two and a half gallons of gas vapor in 3 minutes could easily have led to a fire or worse. 2. refusing to replace the contaminated engine oil is a safety issue because gas in the oil will cause the engine to fail. if this happens on the interstate which I drive all the time it could lead to a catastrophic accident involving me and other cars. eventually because I didn't have the money the dealership comped the oil change (I do not have the money for the change because had I changed the oil 5 days prior to the breakdown). the dealership recognized the safety hazard from contaminate engine oil but Hyundai motor company of America refuses to even call me back and if they had it their way would I would have just had me drive in a vehicle that represented a danger. the repair invoice has the oil change listed as warranty but it was not likely to be covered by warranty as the service customer service manager informed me they're going to have to fight with Hyundai and will probably end up competent in the long run. this was after 2 weeks of fighting with Hyundai to get them to pay for it and still they have never called me back.
