"Rod problem, seized up"
Anonymous, IN (2016 Hyundai Sonata Sport 2.0-L 4 Cyl turbo)"Car is using oil at 2.1 quarts per 1000 miles. Currently going forward with oil consumption tests every 1000 miles."
Anonymous A., UT (2016 Hyundai Sonata SE 1.6-L 4 Cyl turbo)"Oil consumption issue. Brought it in under warranty. Consuming 2 quarts of oil per week by the end. Hyundai refused to help.A person would have to be insane to buy a car from this company. They would not help."
Anonymous A., VA (2016 Hyundai Sonata Limited 2.4-L 4 Cyl)"Engine siezed on me . Under recall and replaced engine for free"
Anonymous A., MA (2016 Hyundai Sonata SE 2.4-L 4 Cyl)"Consuming about 0.75-1 quart of oil every thousand miles. Purchased the car used with 35k miles and has about 94k now."
Anonymous, KY (2016 Hyundai Sonata SE 2.4-L 4 Cyl)"Hyundai has had problems with some 2.4-litre engines consuming excessive oil. My engine is currently being evaluated by a Hyundai dealer for possible replacement."
Anonymous, KY (2016 Hyundai Sonata Sport 2.4-L 4 Cyl)"Hyundai's 2.4L engine has a history of excessive oil leakage. Hyundai issued a TSB but didn't widely publicize it. Under the TSB, after following a proceedure if you use more than a quart of oil in 1000 miles they perform an engine cleaning. If after that you still consume more than a quart in 1000 miles they may make the decision to rebuild your engine. The sad thing is, they consider using a quart every 1000 miles "normal". I sure don't"
Anonymous A., VA (2016 Hyundai Sonata SE 2.4-L 4 Cyl)"We own two 2016 Hyundai Sonatas. I started noticing that one of them was consuming oil more than I expected at about 30k miles. I bought the car used with 18k miles. At the time I didnt think much of it but I should have taken it to the dealer to document. The problem got worse and I finally took it in at 84k miles for the issue and was denied coverage by the dealer who said Hyundai corporate declined coverage. A while later I called Hyundai corporate and they told me I needed to take the car in for an oil consumption test. I am doing it now and not hopeful for any resolution. Otherwise the car has been great but this is a major problem I have never had on any other car. Our other sonata (same year and mileage) has the same issue but it is not as bad. The other sonata had 35k miles when we bought it used. I have always done oil changes correctly myself and at the proper interval, using synthetic oil and Hyundai filters."
