I have experienced trouble with a brand new car, which has been ongoing for about 1 year. I have taken my vehicle in to this location, which is where I purchased it. Each time, I was told they could not find a problem. I took the vehicle to a different location where a problem was diagnosed and I was told it was repaired. However, the vehicle now present with even more problems; it continues to shut off on me and I hear an awful sound. Also, when I shift to drive, I get a message on the dashboard prompting me to shift to PARK. Another thing that happens is, as I am pulling off, I get a message suggesting I "Shift to P or N and start engine manually". I also had to replace all 4 tires before reaching ****** miles. *** tire shop confirmed what the dealership told me, that the tires that came on my vehicle were old to begin with. To date, there has been no attempt at resolution aside from telling me I have the option to take my vehicle to another dealer. This is a brand new vehicle and there is no way I should have this much trouble and need so many visits for diagnostic only to be told no one can find an actual problem. *** dealer has been willing to change my oil, which is covered under warranty, but I am told they cannot change the oil filter. I am stressed and physically exhausted, not to mention the emotional anguish of wondering when I will be stranded when the vehicle finally shuts off and refuses to start again. I am currently under warranty which is not being honored and I believe the dealer is stalling because this is obviously a lemon. Please help me investigate and assist me in resolving this matter.Business response

I took my car in Sept/Nov23 due to oil issues.I was told after several visits,I could start oil consumption test for a new engine (3 phases).1st phase was completed but when returning my car for the 2nd phase,I was told I would have to leave my car the same day,for 2 days by the Service provider ******.Shocked no one explained the phases prior, she then told me they didn't have loaner cars to give out, so I have to figure things out.I explained I can not leave my car on short notice & would return following week. I called to speak with the Serv. Manager ******* to discuss a loaner&abruptly learned he was no longer employed there. So I reached out to hyundai affairs&the new manager ****** who assured me a loaner. A week later, received a loaner, but my car was there for 2 mnths opposed to 2 days.****** explained a tech spilled chemicals under the hood while conducting the test. The chemicals burned through parts&they had to be replaced.Eventually receiving my car back, I returned for 3rd phase in Dec 23, I received another loaner. I tried getting in contact with ****** & the service provider ****** a few weeks later (end of Jan/early **** *** was told ****** was no longer employed there by ****** I tired reaching out to the new manager ********* unsuccessful.I went to the dealership in person&was eventually able to get in contact.He said that he would look into where my car was&let me know where the tech was at with the work&would call me back by 5pm.I never received a call&was unable to get in contact with him or the service provider ****** for weeks&I was also in contact with hyundai affairs who were also unsuccessful at reaching them.I asked my uncle to call&he was finally able to get in touch&Kevin explained that my car still hasn't been worked on&his goal is to have it by this Saturday 3/9/24. He also explained that Hyundai would not be warranting the engine or the other parts they replaced&if anything else happens it would be on me&up to hyundai for next steps.Business response

The consumer will still have the remainder/balance of the full factory warranty on this vehicle.Customer response

Complaint: 21390158
I am rejecting this response because:My warranty will expire at 100k miles I'm currently at 92k. Which means my warranty will expire in 2 to 3 months, when my car is completed. My current warranty only covers the powertrain (my original engine) not the shortblock engine they are rebuilding with a few manufactured new parts or the parts that are/parts replaced after the technician spilled chemicals under the hood. So it is ethical and ideal to warranty everything that was replaced, the engine is not entirely new and I'm unaware of everything that was affected or could potentially be affected by the chemical spill.
Sincerely,
***************************Business response

Hyundai will honor the rest of the 10/100 powertrain warrant. If another issue happens internally with the engine that are *************. We have to put in a prior approval (PA) and they will determine if they will warranty the repairs or not. We have no authority to extend any manufacturer warranty.Initial Complaint

December of 2022 is when the issue first occurred. Check engine light came on. Then I noticed the vehicle was burning oil. I took it to Autozone and they stated it was a misfire on cylinder 3. I took it to Napleton, when I purchased the vehicle it was called ****** Auto. They sold the business to Napleton. Napleton changed spark plugs. They didnt fix the issue. You will see that in the paper work I have attached. After like about 4-5 months Napleton ended up replacing the engine. As of last Wednesday November 8, 2023, my check engine light came back on and has been on ever since. I went to OReilly Auto Parts to have them read the code. They stated that its a misfire on cylinder 3. I reached out to Napleton to schedule an appointment and the earliest they have is November 27, 2023. I also opened another case with Hyundai because when this issue first started back in December of 2022, I open a case with them because that case was closed once Napleton replaced the engine. They have not contacted me regarding the new case that I opened last week. At this point I just want them to give me another vehicle. I feel like this vehicle is defected off the assembly line. Please help me resolve this issue.Business response

We sold ************************* a brand new non titled **** Hyundai Palisade. All accessories and parts that were suppose to come with the vehicle came with it at the time of purchase. The (fake fee) that the customer is referring too is ******** Doc Fee of $347.26 that is charged to every retail customer that we sell a car too. The only issue the vehicle had was there was a sticky residue left near the cup holder area which we told the customer we would be able to take care of during weekdays when our detail shop is open. ************************* which is the Son of ************************* has been talking on her behalf thru out this whole process.

I had my vehicle towed to Napleton Downtown Hyundai *******, 24 hours letter a service department tech called me and obviously it was a game of phone tag. when i was able to reach the Service Tech, he was very rude and just an A@$hole. the vehicle was diagnose and i was told to provide maintenance records on the vehicle. I provided the records but no explanation was provided as to why the vehicle engine failed and why its being repaired. after the vehicle engine was replaced but again no explanation was given as to whether this was a new Engine or a used engine, if there is a new or does the original warranty is still valid.Business response

Good morning BBB,
I was able to reach out to this customer the week of 5/11/2023 , after some phone tag and some back and forth emailing I was able to get this client on the phone.
I explained to him what was done to his car . That we installed a factory provided engine to replace the defective/malfunctioning one that installed at the factory when his Kone was being produced.
We were also to explain to him that the engine failure was do in no part to his maintenance habits, which are perfect by the way. The Factory warranty that came witht the Kona when originally purchased remains on this vehicle with no exceptions.
Best wishes
Fixed Operations Director

Re: id # ********
To whom concerned,
As you are aware, the only time the *************** tows and/or impounds vehicles off the street is if there is outstanding parking violations registered to the plate number of the vehicle. That being said, ******************* will have to settle the money she owes to the *************** for prior parking tickets before they will release the vehicle form impound. Once the charges are paid ******************** can have the vehicle towed back to our facility for repairs. We will not nor can we assist in or pay for the fines ******************** has complied on her vehicle.
If any questions arise please feel free to call,
