THE PANORAMIC SUN ROOF EXPLODED WHILE THE CAR WAS PARKERD AND ENGINE RUNNINGTHE TEMPATURE WAS 77 DEGREES. AFTER SOME INTERNET FOLLOW UP IT SEEMS THIS IS THE #1 PROBLEM IN CANADA AND THERE HAS BEEN AND ON GOING CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IN THE USA FOR THE PAST 5 YEARS. BOTH THE DEALERSHIP AND HUYNDAI KNEW OF THE PROBLEM AND IT WAS FIX UNDER WARRANTY, 1YEAR OLD WITH 9000 MILES. HAD THIS HAPPENED A FREEWAY SPEED WE PROBALLY WOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED ALONG WITH OTHERS. THEY ARE REPLACING THE GLASS ROOFS WITH THE SAME GLASS ROOFS WITH NO FIXES DONE HYUNDAI AND SISTER COMPANY KIA HAVE KNOW OF THIS PROBLEM SINCE BEFORE THE CLASS ACTION SUIT STARTED IN 2012 AND HAVE SEND BULLITTENS TO DEALERSHIPS BUT NO RECALLS THIS IS A MAJOR SAFTEY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED AND NOT JUST COVERED UP BY THE CAR COMPANYS. I HAVE APROX 100 PHOTOS AND CAN NOT DOWN LOAD TO YOUR SITE FOR SOME REASON CURRENTLY I CAN TRY LATER OR MAYBE IF YOU HAVE A EMAIL OR SOMETHING I CAN DO THAT TOO, LET ME KNOW. THIS HAPPENED NOVEMBER 11, 2017 THE CAR WAS BOUGHT IN THE USA KEPT IN THE USA BY USA CITIZENS

SERVICE BRAKES, POWER TRAIN
9/18/17 WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON AND THE VEHICLE WHILE TRYING TO ACCELERATE MOVED SLOW AS IF TO NOT WANT TO SHIFT. I GOT TO THE SIDE OF THE FREEWAY AND TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND WHEN I RE STARTED A FEW MINUETS LATER THE LIGHT WENT OUT AND VEHICLE OPERATED WITHOUT OUT PROBLEM. I MADE APPOINTMENT WITH DEALERSHIP FOR 9/26/17. THEY DID SOME RECALL ITEMS AND I MENTIONED THE PROBLEM AND WAS TOLD IF THE LIGHT IS OUT IT MAY NOT SHOW UP. THE FAILED TO NOT ON SERVICE ORDER THIS ISSUE. ON 10/24/17 WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY AND HAD TRAVELED ABOUT 50 MILES FROM HOME THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN AND THIS TIME IT NOTIFIED ME ON THE RADIO SCREEN TO CONTACT BLUE LINK AS THERE WAS A POSSIBLE CONDITION WITH THE BRAKE SYSTEM. I CONTACTED BLUE LINK AND THEY MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR 10/27/17 AT 8 AM AT THE DEALERSHIP. AFTER 6 HOURS WAITING ON HYUNDAI TECH SUPPORT TO GET BACK WITH THEM TO RUN DIAGNOSTICS. LAST 3 MONTHS VEHICLE MONTHLY REPORT ON VEHICLE SHOWS A PROBLEM WITH THE ABS SYSTEM. THEY CLAIM THEY ARE UNAWARE OF ANY ISSUES.10/24/17

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
PURCHASED NEW 7/172017 SANTA FE ULTIMATE 2.0T. THIS SUV DOES NOT ACCELERATE AND LAGS ON AN INTERMITTENT BASIS HAPPENS AT A LOWER SPEED AND FROM A STOP. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN MAKING A TURNS AND ENTERING FREEWAY OR TRAFFIC CICLES (ROUNDABOUTS) WHEN DEPRESSING ACCELERATOR AND YOUR VEHICLE SLOWLY MOVES FORWARD AND FAILS TO ACCELERATE TO THE REQUIRED SPEED YOU ARE REQUESTING FOR A SECOND OR MORE. NOW YOU HAVE PLACED YOURSELF IN A VERY DANGEROUS POSITION BECAUSE OFTHIS VEHICLES INABILITY TO RESPOND. THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT TAKES OFF. DOES NOT HAPPEN EVERY TIME BUT IS FREQUENT ENOUGH TO BE CONCERNED. HAS HAPPENED CONTINUALLY SINCE NEW. MY WIFE LOVES THE VEHICLE BUT IS AFRAID TO DRIVE IT..NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS BUT THERE ARE CERTAINLY ENOUGH COMPLAINTS THAT SOMEONE SHOULD INVESTIGATE AND GET AFTER HYUNDAI TO FIX THE SITUATION BEFORE SOMEONE GOD FORBID IS KILLED.. OR THAT'S UNFORTUNATELY WHAT IT WILL TAKE TO RESOLVE THIS SERIOUS DEFECT. I LOVE THE VEHICLE ESPECIALLY THE TURBO BUT IT'S SCARY.

POWER TRAIN
I PURCHASED A BRAND NEW 2017 HYUNDAI SANTA FE LIMITED ULTIMATE ON MAY 5 OF THIS YEAR, AND NOTICED A VERY HESITATION DURING THE DRIVE HOME FROM THE DEALERSHIP. I FIGURED IT WAS THE RESULT OF THE ENGINE BREAKING IN AND THAT I SHOULD JUST BE PATIENT. HOWEVER, IT CONTINUED...AND PROGRESSIVELY GOT WORSE. SPECIFICALLY, IT'S MOST PRONOUNCED WHEN I ACCELERATE FROM A DEAD STOP, ACCELERATE OUT OF A ROLLING STOP, ACCELERATE OUT OF A LEFT TURN, OR TRY TO MAKE A QUICK PASSING OR MERGING MANEUVER ON THE FREEWAY. IN ALL OF THESE CONDITIONS, THERE IS A 2 TO 3 SECOND DELAY BEFORE THE TRANSMISSION WILL SUDDENLY DOWNSHIFT AND THE VEHICLE WILL BLAST OFF. THIS IS REALLY DANGEROUS, BECAUSE I'VE HAD NEARLY A DOZEN INSTANCES OF BEING NEARLY REAR ENDED BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WON'T ACCELERATE QUICKLY ENOUGH. THE BEST WAY TO DESCRIBE IT IS TO SAY THAT IT'S LIKE TRYING TO ACCELERATE WITH A DIRTY, SEVERELY CLOGGED, 10-YEAR-OLD ENGINE AIR FILTER, AND THE INTAKE CAN'T GET ENOUGH AIR INTO THE ENGINE TO ACCELERATE AS IT SHOULD. I'VE BEEN TO OUR LOCAL DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND IN EVERY INSTANCE WE'RE TOLD THAT THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO UNTIL HYUNDAI RELEASES AN UPDATE OR A RECALL. BUT IN THE MEANTIME, I GUESS I'M SUPPOSED TO CONTINUE PLAYING RUSSIAN ROULETTE WITH MY LIFE. I'M AT NEARLY 9,000 MILES AND THE HESITATION IS STILL AS PRONOUNCED AS IT WAS IN THE BEGINNING. I'M TRYING REALLY HARD TO BE PATIENT AND NOT KEEP COMPLAINING TO OUR LOCAL SERVICE CENTER...BUT WE'VE HAD QUITE A FEW CLOSE CALLS, EXTREMELY CLOSE, AND I'M REALLY HOPING THAT HYUNDAI WILL PLEASE FIX THIS SOON! IN FACT, I JUST READ AN ARTICLE ABOUT HYUNDAI REPLACING THE ENGINES IN THE '17 SANTA FE'S BECAUSE OF A MANUFACTURING ISSUE WITH THE CRANKSHAFT PIN CAUSING THE EXACT SAME SYMPTOMS I'VE EXPERIENCED. SO I HOPE THAT I CAN PLEASE GET MY VEHICLE REPAIRED BEFORE I END UP IN A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT. THANKS!!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HYUNDAI SANTA FE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING AND THE GEAR IN PARK, THE GEAR AUTOMATICALLY SHIFTED INTO REVERSE AND THE VEHICLE MOVED BACKWARDS. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAS STANDING ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WITH THE PASSENGER DOOR OPEN. THE CONTACT JUMPED INTO THE VEHICLE AND APPLIED THE BRAKES IN ORDER TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE AND PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE PARKING LOT. THE CONTACT TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED THE ENGINE, AND THE VEHICLE RETURNED TO NORMAL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 23,300.

POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
2017 HYUNDAI SANTE FE SPORT AWD - PURCHASED IN OCT 2017. CURRENTLY HAVE 7525 MILES ON VEHICLE. I NOTICED ACCELERATION HESITATION IMMEDIATELY AFTER MAKING IN CITY TURNS (FROM BOTH STATIONARY AND IN MOTION TURNS) AS WELL AS WHEN GETTING ON HIGHWAY (IN MOTION). I AM RETIRED AND DO NOT DRIVE SANTE FE VERY OFTEN. THE PROBLEMS WITH ACCELERATION AFTER MAKING STATIONARY AND IN MOTION TURNS AND GETTING ON HIGHWAY HAS ALWAYS BEEN PRESENT SINCE DAY OF PURCHASE. I HAVE NOTICED THE PROBLEM HAS BECOME MORE PREVALENT AFTER TAKING A 1000 MILE ROAD TRIP THIS PAST AUGUST. THE ACCELERATION/ HESITATION AFTER TURNING IS MORE NOTICEABLE AND IS BECOMING CONCERNING BECAUSE I HAVE TO PRESS PETAL TO FLOOR TO GET THE SANTE FE TO ACCELERATE PROPERLY TO GET OUT OF WAY OF ON COMING TRAFFIC. HESITATIONS/ACCELERATION PROBLEMS OCCURS AFTER TURNING AND WHEN ENTERING A FREEWAY. VERY POOR ENGINE PERFORMANCE GIVEN THE VEHICLE COST OF $35,000. I OWNED A 2011 HYUNDAI SONTA FOR 6 YEARS AND HAD THE SAME 2.4L ENGINE AND I NEVER EXPERIENCED ANY ENGINE HESITATION LIKE I AM NOW WITH THE 2017 HYUNDAI SANTE FE SPORT AWD.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
HAD THIS SANTA FE FOR A LITTLE OVER A YEAR. I HAVE NOTICED SEVERAL INSTANCES OF NOT BEING ABLE TO ACCELERATE, OR GAIN SPEED, ESPECIALLY WHEN TURNING OR STARTING FROM A STOPPED POSITION, IT HESITATES TO START TO THE POINT OF ALMOST BEING HIT SEVERAL TIMES. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO DEALER MANY TIMES, AND THEY KEEP TELLING ME ITS THE WAY I AM DRIVING IT THAT THE ENGINE IS LIKE A STANDARD VEHICLE, BUT THAT DOESNT SEEM SAFE TO ME IF I AM TRYING TO START DRIVING AND IT WONT GO. WHEN IT DOES FINALLY DECIDE TO GO, IT TAKES OFF WAY TOO FAST AND IS LIKE, IT FINALLY DECIDES TO SHIFT INTO GEAR. ALSO WHILE IN PARK, ENGINE REVS TO 2500RPM FOR NO REASON OR IDOLS AT THAT RPM. IT FEELS LIKE THE ENGINE IS PULLING THE CAR FORWARD EVEN WHEN IT IS IN PARK I HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE RUN AROUND SO MANY TIMES, I AM TIRED OF IT. I'M NOT HAPPY TO SEE OTHERS HAVE THIS ISSUE, BUT I AM ALSO GLAD THAT OTHERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEMS.

SERVICE BRAKES, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
SMART CRUISE CONTROL FAILS TO BRAKE INTERMITTENTLY. IT IS DESIGNED TO MATCH SPEED WITH THE CAR IN FRONT OF IT. IT USUALLY WORKS FINE, UNLESS ANOTHER VEHICLE CUTS IN FRONT, EVEN IF THERE IS ENOUGH TIME TO BRAKE. I HAVE TO SLAM ON THE BRAKES MANUALLY TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. I NOW FEAR USING THE CRUISE CONTROL AT ALL, AS IT DOES NOT PERFORM CORRECTLY 100% OF THE TIME. THE DEALER SAID THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG, BUT THIS IS A VERY REAL ISSUE THAT PUTS MY FAMILY AT RISK. THEY HAVE NOW CALLED IN A MASTER TECH FROM HYUNDAI TO LOOK AT IT, BUT I WANTED TO DOCUMENT THIS ISSUE. I NOTICED IT FIRST WITHIN TWO WEEKS OF PURCHASE. HYUNDAI SUPPORT CLOSED MY CASE SEVERAL TIMES WITHOUT ACTION. I BOUGHT IT 5 MONTHS AGO. CURRENT MILEAGE IS 3462, SO IT IS WELL WITHIN WARRANTY.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
MY NEW SANTA FE 2017 HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE CAR NOT REACTING TO PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR. YOUR PRESS THE ACCELERATOR AND THE CAR DOES NOT MOVE AND THE ENGINE DOES NOT REV. THE HESITATION IS ABOUT 2 SECONDS LONG AND IS VERY SCARY. IT HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY AND FROM A STOPPED POSITION. I'M AFRAID AT SOME POINT THERE WILL BE A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT FROM THIS PROBLEM. I'VE HEARD THERE IS A RECALL 16-01-032 FOR THE TCU UPDATE 60CO61R1 BUT I REACHED OUT TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND I DID SOME RESEARCH THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM. I NOTICED THIS PROBLARY A WEEK AFTER PURCHASE.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
CAR HAS SERIOUS, DANGEROUS ACCELERATION PROBLEMS. IT'S MOST NOTICEABLE WHEN TURNING LEFT INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. CAR APPEARS TO LOSE ALL POWER WHEN ACCELERATING - HANGING FOR SECONDS WHILE NOTHING HAPPENS. ENGINE HITS REDLINE ALL THE TIME AND IT BARELY GAINS SPEED. CALLED DEALER AND WAS FIRST TOLD "DUAL CLUTCH WILL LEARN DRIVING STYLE." AFTER NOTING CAR HAS 2K MILES WAS THEN TOLD "THE DELAY IS A CHARACTERISTIC OF THAT CAR." THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS. I'VE ALMOST BEEN T-BONED MULTIPLE TIMES BECAUSE OF THIS. GOOGLING LED ME TO MANY OTHER REPORTS OF THE SAME ISSUE. THIS VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE RECALLED.

MY BRAND NEW 2017 SANTA FE LIMITED HESITATES BADLY WHEN COMING OUT OF TURNS AT A SLOW SPEED AND ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE...JUST SHORT OF COMING TO A STOP. IT ALSO OCCURS WHEN VEHICLE IS AT A STOP THEN I STEP ON THE ACCELERATOR. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE VEHICLE LAGS WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ENTER TRAFFIC OR THE VEHICLE COULD BE HIT FROM BEHIND WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE AND IT MOMENTARILY DOES NOT RESPOND. THIS OCCURS EACH TIME I DRIVE IT.
