yah,  still have not taken in my 2014 sonata and santa fe for a fuel line recall where they replace about 1-2 feet of rubber hose that can deteriote over time and leak gas and possible catch the engine on fire.  EVERYTIME I have called the stealerships,  there is a 2 month backlog to get in an appt. that only takes 30 minutes.  I find that disgraceful that all hyundai dealers are backlogged on all these massive recalls, most so with the 2.4L engine that has bad internal rod bearings of which I had my 2.4L sonata engine replaced near 40K miles ago around 86K mile mark free of charge, but took 2 months to get a new engine  done but Hyundai paid for 2 months of rental car reimbursement costing them well over another 1 grand expense.

But Cookie, if you had made the appointment the 1st time you called you no doubt would have the fuel line replaced by now and be motoring happily down the road.
