This is my sister's, she bought it new less than two years ago... She phoned me last night, and she's quite upset. It's burning a litre (quart) in 1000 kms (600 miles). There is no tailpipe smoke and no leaks. I think the catalytic converter is cleaning up the oil smoke (?). She commutes with it daily, 100 kms hwy each way. I've ridden shotgun with her, she's a careful, easy driver.
She took it to the dealer, they printed out a sheet from Hyundai which said that oil consumption is not a problem unless it's more than 1 litre per 1000 kms
. They then said sorry, nothing we can do, and sent her on her way. This was the dealer that sold her the car new, less than two years ago.
I'm going to tell her she should go back and demand an oil consumption test.
I took a quick look at Hyundai forums last night, I'll look again this morning. Her Tuscon has the 2.0 non turbo engine.
Anyone out there who has dealt with a Hyundai warranty issue problem recently? How did you resolve it? Thanks...
