Scared to get my car back now
As much as I wanted it back from the dealer, I am afraid now. Let me give you some details and see what you think.
I have a 2002 Hyundai Sonata, 6 cyl, 4 dr sedan with approx 40,000 miles on it. I take very good care of it, regularly change the oil and other things that need to be done. Last week, it started hesitating when I started it and then on Wednesday it didn't start at all. That was a week ago. It has been at the dealer ever since. They said when they got it that there was no compression in the engine, leading them to think the crank case and timing belt (please forgive me, I know nothing about cars). It was supposed to be completed this past Wednesday and it was not. Yesterday the person handling my account was not in, and no one ever called me back. So today I spoke with the service writer handling my car. She told me that yesterday they got the car started, without replacing anything! She said they are investigating it further and will call me back later. What is going on with my car? She did lie to me? If she didn't, and they don't find out why my car did this, what do I do? Should I try to get rid of it? What if the trade-in amount is less than what is left on my car loan? Will my car be reliable?
Sorry for all the questions, I just don't know what to do now.
