“I was driving at high speed of 55 MPH and experienced a high-speed stall on my 2013 Hyundai tuscon. I heard a knocking sound and then all my lights came on (oil,engine,etc.). I was so scared and made it to the shoulder safely. Thank god. I tried to start the car but it wouldn't start. I also, saw smoke so I didn't know what was happening. So I was stranded on the highway and called a tow truck and they towed me to the mechanics shop in my town. The mechanic stated to me that there is oil leaking underneath and that my engine is shot! …”
NHTSA complaint #11407201, filed 2021-04, 99,000 miles“We experienced engine failure of a 2013 Hyundai Tucson on 2/20/24. There were no warning lights displayed on the instrument panel.

We were not notified nor aware of potential engine failure issues. The research we’ve been able to obtain regarding Service Campaign 966 (“SC966”) appears to exclude the 2013 Tucson model unless it has a Theta II engine. …”
