February 26th, 2012 03:18 AM #1Hi,
ISSUE:
Knocking and low power Hyundai Accent
ECM Failure
Dealer: Hyundai Quezon Avenue
Earlier today I brought my Hyundai Accent 1.4 MT at Hyundai Quezon Avenue for my 1k PMS. I couldn't bear the knocking problem and low power so I asked the SA to have the ECU updated using your Euro 2 ECM.
The knocking issue was lessened but what's worse is that extreme low power is evident in this case! I had to step on the pedal about 3-4k rpms or even more to get the car moving and interestingly enough the car went from fuel efficient to gas guzzling machine!!! Not only that, the engine noise had increased terribly! NO EXAGGERATION!!!
What's best about today, around 11pm along SLEX (Saturday 25.02.2011) the accent's check engine light lit up and the engine died down!!!!! I WAS WITH MY WIFE FOR CRYING OUT LOUD IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT!!!! A BRAND NEW CAR WITH ONLY 1 MONTH USAGE???????
I tried to start the engine but to no avail. Was about to call the towing service but I thought of troubleshooting by removing the negative battery terminal for a few minutes and placed it back again, well it did start. Thank Goodness! Congratulations HYUNDAI ASIA RESOURCES INC. for bringing this defective unit here and luckily I'm the only one in this so I will demand...
Replace my unit as soon as possible!!!
If you can just imagine the desperation and frustration i have now, I hope you take action immediately!
I sent you people my first email last week and I didn't hear anything from you!
This will be my final plea as your customer to please take action or I would be forced to resort in legal remedies.
Do contact me as soon as possible!
Regards.
