All the recalls on my car have been completed. I’m currently at 195,000 km. I’ve had this car for just over a year, and I bought it used from a Kia dealership. Recently, my engine stalled on the highway due to low oil. For the past few months, I’ve been told at every oil change that my car is burning oil excessively. Now, I have to go for oil top-ups between oil changes.
My mechanic mentioned that this is a common problem with Hyundai Tucsons, but when I contact Hyundai, they tell me there’s no recall on my engine. The other day, while driving on the highway at 110 km/h, the engine suddenly revved up to 4000-5000 RPM. I had to slow down to 60 km/h in the slow lane with my hazards on to keep the RPMs at 2000 until I got home. It was also making a sputtering noise, and the dipstick showed that there wasn’t enough oil.
What are my options and fix’s for this?
