The valve over eventually leaks oil that drips down on to the alternator. This cause the electrical system to fail, the battery and brake lights come on. Then slowly all lights come on as battery shuts down. This is a known issue with this engine. This happened to me yesterday while driving at night leaving the car unable to drive. When the battery completely shuts down you cannot even move the vehicle out of Park, as electric is needed to disengage the the shifter from park, so you cannot even push the vehicle off of the road. Hyundai has a recall for the exact same engine in the Veracruz.

Dealership had me make an appointment and come in for the 188 recall (ABS relay installation), kept me for 2 hours, tried to sell me about $2,000 in unrelated maintenance, then told me that they did not have the parts to perform the relay service. They therefore wasted my time when they had no intention of performing the recall work. The recall work has not been done, and I've wasted a work day. Dealer rep was also intimidating with regard to the maintenance he was recommending.

We purchased our 2007 hyundai entourage in 2015 and 2 months after we bought it both doors motors stopped working. The driver side passenger door will only open about 10 to 15 inches. We've had to use the handles to open both door and the handles broke. I can only assume that they broke because they were not made to be used since the doors are supposed to be used with a remote and are motorized. We've also had to replace our head lights and back lights about 6 to 8 times that's more than I've changed any lhead lights on all my vehicles in my entire 44 years of owning cars. This vehicle has had 6 recalls since we purchased it in 2015. Please just recall and replace the whole vehicle to make up for how poorly this vehicle was made and thrown together. Ty
