My Dad owns a 2015 Sonata with the 2.5. He brought his car to the dealer to have the stolen car recall done. I guess it’s some download and window decals. While the car was there the tech noticed an oil leak from the timing cover. My 79 year old Dad told them the car is still under warranty. The advisor said oh, that’s right. The car was ready for pick up by the end of the day. The car only has 33,000 miles on it. My parents live in the Socal desert where the summer temps are 100 degrees for a good 3-4 months of the year.
I watched a youtube video on replacing the front crank shaft on this 2.5 and it looks pretty time consuming. The valve cover and timing cover need to be removed. I don’t know if the oil pan does or not? I could see this being over $1500 easy if they had to pay for it.
