Any idea what action we can take to get something done?

Wow! Ridiculous. One thing you COULD try is take it to another Hyundai dealer if you've got one near to you. I mean, any Hyundai dealer can service it, and I would try finding one with the best ratings. It's not a surefire plan, but if they couldn't fix it the first two times, why could they fix it the third time?

After that, if it's still not fixed, you could try calling Hyundai. This has had mixed results for some people, but you can always try.

BTW

Personally I wouldn't run 91 octane to fix any problem that should be resolved through waranty.. or run 3rd party plugs. Thats fine if you want to for your own reasons, but not to fix something that should run just fine on with OEM parts...but thats my opinion.

I'm sorry I didn't update my own thread, I swear I thought I did. Dealer couldnt find anything wrong and cleared the codes and sent it into Hyundai Canada (they opened a case for me whatever that means). It hasn't been an issue since.

What did they do as far as service goes those 2 times?
