Engine Problem

Update: Hyundai corp requested all of our maintenance records. Agreed to “reimburse “ us for rental car. Dealership has had our car for 4 weeks and nothing has been done on it other than to diagnose as blown engine. Initially told us that since it’s 16k out of warranty they would not cover the $18,000 repair! After sending in all documents and further inspection of our car they agreed to pay $13,000 of the $18,000 bill. I believe that they would not pay anything if they did believe that their Theta engine was faulty. How would you proceed?

My 2013 6 cylinder had the same issue at 114,000 miles. They are stonewalling me at every turn. They will NOT work with me at all. I am the 2nd owner. Bought it with 43664. Oil changes every 5000 miles with synthetic oil. I will not buy another one.
