1989 FORD E-150

I have been notified in the last three oil changes to my 2017 Hyundai Sonata that it's missing oil. Today, I went to an oil change even before the oil change was due (the car noted it was not due for another 819 miles or 3 days). There, they told me the car has an engine oil leakage and that it ba... rely had engine oil. I told them, the car didn't even light up as needing oil. They told me to visit a local Hyundai dealer to have it checked ASAP, as they have serviced various Hyundai Sonata and Elantra models with the same issue.Read more

1. The rack and pinion steering rack is leaking power steering hydraulic fluid. The power assist is not working and the vehicle is undrivable. Putting in new fluid does not help as it just drains out from he pinion within half a day. 2. Luckily, the seals on the rack and pinion failed in the communi... ty as low speeds and power steering was lost. Drove back home. No one was hurt. Afraid to think of what would have happened if this had occurred at highway speeds. 3. Not yet confirmed by dealer as car needs towing, which costs money as closest dealer is quiet far away. But many reports of similar incidents across online communities for this vehicle, where folks had to shell out thousands to replace the entire rack and pinion system. The seals are sealed inside and cannot be serviced. 4. Component has not been removed from the car yet or inspected by anyone. Yet to be removed for replacement 5. There were no warning lights, sounds or indications of any kind. No warning of loss of hydraulic pressure or air in system. Just a weird whining noise began when negotiating a slow speed turn and within a minute, all fluid drained and all power assist was lost.Read more
