FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE, STRUCTURE:BODY, ENGINE
WHILE DRIVING HOME, MY VEHICLE BEGAN TO MAKE CLUNKING NOISES, WHILE IN THE PROCESS OF EXITING THE HIGHWAY, FOR SAFETY REASONS, THE CAR CUT OFF ON THE EXIT RAMP. BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO RESTART THE VEHICLE; A PASSERBY SHOUTED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS ON FIRE. UPON EXITING THE VEHICLE THE POLICE WERE ON THE SCENE AND EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TOWED TO A LOCAL BODY SHOP TO AWAIT A TOW TO MY PLACE OF RESIDENCE. *TR

SEATS, VISIBILITY/WIPER
ON THREE OCCASIONS NOW, I HAVE NEARLY HIT A PEDESTRIAN IN A CROSSWALK, BECAUSE I DID NOT SEE THAT PEDESTRIAN. ALL THREE WERE HIDDEN FROM MY VIEW BY A COMBINATION OF THE DRIVER SIDE MIRROR AND THE FRAME OF THE CAR ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD. TOGETHER, THE PLACEMENT OF THESE TWO FEATURES CREATES A SURPRISINGLY LARGE BLIND SPOT. I THINK IT IS PARTLY RELATED TO THE FACT THAT THE SEATS IN THE CAR ALSO CANNOT BE RAISED ENOUGH; I HAVE GOOD FRONT VISIBILITY, BUT IF I COULD GET HIGHER I DO THINK THE MIRROR MIGHT BE LESS OF AN OBSTACLE. EACH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED, I LEARN A NEW TYPE OF SITUATION IN WHICH I MUST NOT TRUST WHAT I SEE, BUT I WORRY ABOUT UNANTICIPATED SITUATIONS IN THE FUTURE.

VISIBILITY:SUN/MOON ROOF ASSEMBLY
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HYUNDAI SANTA FE. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE PANORAMIC SUN ROOF FRACTURED OUT ON THE ROADWAY WITHOUT WARNING. THE FABRIC CLOSURE WAS SHUT, WHICH PREVENTED THE FRAGMENTS FROM ENTERING THE TOP PORTION OF THE SUN ROOF WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE AND PARKED. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND ASKED THE CONTACT TO TOW THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,000. UPDATED 08/22/2017*JS

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SEATS
DRIVER'S SEAT LURCHES FORWARD AND BACKWARDS AT RANDOM TIMES WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAPPENS REGARDLESS OF SPEED, BRAKE/ ACCELERATION/ CRUISE CONTROL, TYPE OF ROAD, DIRECTION OR MOVEMENT ETC. OFTEN TIMES WHILE THE CAR IS PARKED OR IN MOTION, THE SEAT WILL NOT MOVE AT ALL IN ANY DIRECTION. ALSO, THE ABS, TRACTION CONTROL, AND DOWNHILL LIGHT HAVE ALL BEEN TURNING ON AND OFF AT RANDOM, AND, WHILE PARKED AND WITHOUT PROVOCATION, MY SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE BEGAN JUMPING. LESS IMPORTANT, THE DRIVER'S SEAT A/C DOES NOT WORK CONSISTENTLY WHICH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THIS IS AN ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTION, HOWEVER, THE MULTIPLE TIMES I HAVE TAKEN THIS VEHICLE INTO THE "SERVICE CENTER", THE MECHANICS SAID THEY COULD NOT RECREATE THE PROBLEM AND SENT MY BROKEN CAR HOME, SO THE OFFICIAL REASON IS UNKNOWN. I AM ONLY 5'2" SO THIS HAS CAUSED ME CONSIDERABLE PROBLEMS WITH SUDDENLY NOT BEING ABLE TO REACH THE PEDALS, AND HAS ALMOST RESULTED IN NUMEROUS ACCIDENTS.

ENGINE
THE HYUNDAI SONATA ENGINES HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR SAFETY CONCERNS BECAUSE THEY CAN STALL AT ANY TIME. THE SANTA FE SPORTS HAVE THE SAME ENGINES BUT HAVE NOT BEEN RECALLED. MINE DID JUST THIS. LUCKILY I WAS ON A QUIET ROAD WITH NO ONE BEHIND ME.

ENGINE
WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AROUND TOWN, THE ENGINE SUDDENLY STARTED MAKING A LOUD KNOCKING NOISE. THE MILEAGE WAS AT 63K MILES. WE STOPPED DRIVING IT IMMEDIATELY AND TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHO SERVICES IT FOR US (MAPLE HILL KALAMAZOO) AND WERE INFORMED THE ENGINE SEIZED. THE FIRST THING THEY DID WAS CHECK THE OIL, WHICH WAS FULL. THEY HAVE DONE ALL OF OUR SERVICE FOR US. THEY SAID THERE IS SOMETHING BANGING AROUND INSIDE THE ENGINE. IN SEARCHING THE INTERNET I FOUND THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE SONATA ENGINE (15V568000). THE ENGINE IN OUR CAR IS THE SAME 4 CYLINDER ENGINE AS IN THE SONATA. THE SERVICE MANAGER AT MAPLE HILL CONTACTED THE HYUNDAI FACTORY REP WHO TOLD HIM TO TAKE THE ENGINE APART AND SEND HIM PICTURES. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE GOING TO DO, BUT I THINK THEY WILL WORK WITH YOU.

THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V624000 (TIRES). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE DOT NUMBER WAS UNKNOWN.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, STEERING, SUSPENSION
I HAVE A 2014 HYUNDAI SANTA FE SPORT AWD. THIS IS MY 3RD HYUNDAI. I HAVE REALLY BEEN IMPRESSED UNTIL NOW. MY CAR WANDERS ALL OVER THE ROAD WHEN DRIVING OVER 50MPH EITHER ON A ROAD OR INTERSTATE. I HAVE TO WORK HARD TO HOLD THE WHEEL TO KEEP THE VEHICLE STRAIGHT. THE HANDLING IS AWFUL I FEEL LIKE MY CAR IS SKATING ALL OVER THE ROAD. LIKE I AM DRIVING ON ICE. THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I HAVE BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP, HAD THE ALIGNMENT CHECKED, HAD A NEW ALIGNMENT PERFORMED, AS WELL AS REPLACE THE TIRES. THIS HAS NOT FIXED THE ISSUE. I FEEL IT IS UNSAFE TO PUT MY 5 YEAR OLD IN THE VEHICLE. I CANNOT KEEP THE STEERING STRAIGHT. WHAT IS HYUNDAI DOING TO FIX THIS ISSUE? I AM MAKING PAYMENTS ON A VEHICLE I FEEL IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND NO ONE CAN TELL ME WHY?

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE THE END OF JUNE 2014, WHICH I THINK I GOT A LEMON. MY GAS RELEASE CAP WOULD NOT OPEN AND WAS TOLD THAT A PART NEEDED TO BE ORDER. I TOOK MY CAR IN TO SOUTH BOULEVARD HYUNDAI YESTERDAY MORNING, SO THEY (SERVICE TECH) CAN OPEN THE GAS CAP SO I COULD PUT GAS IN MY CAR. I DON'T THINK PARTS SHOULD BE BREAKING LIKE THAT IN THE SHORT TIME THAT I HAD THE CAR, SO THE CAP WAS OPEN AND THE SERVICE TECH LEFT THE BROKEN PIECE INSIDE THE CAP, HE THEN TOLD ME THAT THE PART WILL BE IN NEXT TUESDAY, IWHICH HE DID NOT SOUND CONVINCING. WHEN I FIRST GOT THE CAR, THERE WAS A TEAR IN THE VISOR AND IT TOKKM A COUPLE OF WEEKS TO GET THAT REPLACE AAFTER I PUSHED THEM TO DO IT, I WAS ALSO INFORMED THE CABIN AIR FILTER NEED TO BE REPLACED. I DON'T THINK I SHOULD BE REPLACING ANYTHING OTHER THAN REG OIL FILTERS. NOW I HEAR A SLIGHT WHISPER IN THE CAR, THEN THE CAR ALMOST CUT OFF ON ME. I CAN SEE IF I AM ABUSING THE VEHICLE BUT I AM NOT, ALL I DO IS DRIVE TO A FROM WORK AND TO THE GROCERY STORE, NOW SINCE THE GAS CAP WILL NOT CLOSE I AM AFRAID TO GO ANYWHERE THINK SOMEONE MAY PUT SOMETHING IN THE GAS TANK OR BREAK THE CAP DOOR OFF, I DON'T LIKE DRIVING SEE MY GAS CAP DOOR IS OPEN. I ALSO HAVE A TRUNK RELEASE FEATURE ON MY KEY CHAIN BUT DON'T HAVE THE FEATURE ON THE CAR, I CALLED HYUNDAY USA AND WAS TOLD THAT I SHOULD HAVE THAT FEATURE, AND WHEN I CONTACT HYUNDAI ON SOUTH BOULEVARD IN CHARLOTTE, NC I WAS TOLD I CANNOT GET THAT FEATURE., VERY DISAPPOINTING ABOUT PAYING FOR A $25,000.00 CAR, AS AND CANNOT GET THE HELP THAT I NEED, AS FAR AS THE CABIN AIR FILTER, THE TECH STATED THAT I WOULD BE SMELLING SOMETHING FOWL, AND I DO, AND IS MAKING MY HEAD HURTS EVERYTIME I GET IN THE CAR, I JUST HOPE I DON'T GET CANCEL FROM IT.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I TOOK MY CAR IN TO THE DEALER FOR ROUTINE OIL CHANGE AND TIRE ROTATION. THE SERVICE ADVISOR CAME OUT AND ASKED ME IF I HAD A RECENT BLOWOUT. I SAID NO. SHE SAID WHEN THE TECH ROTATED THE TIRE HE NOTICED A BULGE IN THE SIDEWALL OF THE REAR PASSENGER TIRE. THEY ADVISED IT WAS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE IT THAT WAY, SO THEY PUT THE SPARE ON. ONE OTHER TIRE WAS SHOWING CABLE. BOTH TIRES ARE AT 5/32. I BOUGHT THIS CAR USED, IN JUNE 2015. CAR FAX SHOWED NO REPORTS OF ANY ISSUES, HOWEVER, THERE WAS NOTICEABLE BODY WORK AND REPAINT (POORLY DONE AND I HAVE PICTURES). THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD A BLOWOUT IN THE LESS THAN 12 MONTHS THEY HAD THE VEHICLE. THEY NEVER REPORTED IT, BUT THE DEALER MENTIONED IT. I HAVE 19" TIRES ON MY SANTA FE SPORT 2.0T. IS IT POSSIBLE THE RECALL ON THE 17" TIRES SHOULD HAVE INCLUDED THE 19" TIRES AS WELL? THESE ARE STILL THE ORIGINAL TIRES. I HAVEN'T OWNED THE CAR A YEAR YET. I TRAVEL 140+ MILES A DAY TO AND FROM WORK. MY SAFETY IS VERY IMPORTANT.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
PURCHASED NEW , MARCH '14. IN FOR PERIODIC SERVICE 2-22-16 REPORTED OCCASIONAL HESITATION OF 1 TO 2 SECONDS AFTER A STOP OR SLOW FORWARD MOTION. THE DEALER PUT THE CAR ON DIAGNOSTIC MACHINES. "NO PROBLEM." REVISITED THE DEALER EXPLICITLY FOR THE SAME PROBLEM ON 3-7-16. BUT NOW, IN ADDITION TO THE MOMENTARY LAGS, THERE HAD BEEN A COUPLE INCIDENTS OF LONGER LAGS OF 5 TO 10 SECONDS. AGAIN, THE SERVICE REPORT WAS WRITTEN UP WITH "NO PROBLEM". NOW I'M MAKING A 3RD APPOINTMENT BECAUSE THE HESITATION IS HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY AND I'VE HAD THE LONG COUNT LAGS (10 SECS OR LONGER) HAPPEN TWICE IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS. THE PROBLEM HAS NOW MOVED FROM BEING AN IRRITANT TO BEING LIFE THREATENING. INCIDENTS HAPPEN ON STREETS AND HIGHWAYS WHEN ENTERING AND CROSSING TRAFFIC. VERY UNSAFE, AND NERVE RATTLING. PLEASE REFER TO NHTSA INCIDENT # 10836613 & 1082431

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
PREVIOUSLY REPORTED TO DEALER THAT CAR OFTEN STALLED OR HESITATED WHEN ACCELERATING AFTER A STOP OR VERY SLOW FORWARD MOTION. THIS HAS ENDED UP IN NUMEROUS HESITATIONS AND NEAR ACCIDENTS WHEN ENTERING INTO TRAFFIC. ON FRIDAY, 1/29/16 WHILE EXITING FROM THE 9TH TIER OF A PARKING GARAGE THE HESITATION HAPPENED ON ALL 9 TIERS AS I ROUNDED THE CORNER TO THE NEXT TIER AND BEGAN TO ACCELERATE. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT AGAIN WITH THE DEALER ON 2/19/16 AND WILL REPORT FURTHER AFTER THAT BUT SUSPECT I WILL GET THE SAME MESSAGE THAT THEY "COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG".

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
OCCASIONALLY RIGHT AFTER I FILL THE CAR WITH GAS THERE IS AN OVERPOWERING ODOR OF GAS INSIDE THE CAR FOR A DAY OR SO. I LIVE IN NEW JERSEY, WHERE SELF-SERVICE IS NOT ALLOWED, AND SOMETIMES THEY FILL IT TO THE ABSOLUTE LIMIT, WHICH MAY BE THE CAUSE. REGARDLESS, THIS IS TERRIBLY UNSAFE BECAUSE GASOLINE FUMES ARE TOXIC. THE ODOR IS NOT FROM A LITTLE SPILLAGE ON THE BODY OF THE CAR, FROM THE HOSE AT THE GAS STATION. IT IS INSIDE THE CAR, AND VERY STRONG. THE DATE BELOW IS ONLY THE MOST RECENT DATE. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES.

STRUCTURE:BODY, VISIBILITY:SUN/MOON ROOF ASSEMBLY
I WAS DRIVING DOWN A TWO LANE ROAD ABOUT NOON ON DEC. 22. THE TEMPERATURE WAS ABOUT 70. I WAS GOING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH. I WAS NOT TURNING, JUST GOING STRAIGHT DOWN THE ROAD. IT SOUNDED LIKE THERE WAS AN EXPLOSION. I PULLED OFF THE ROAD AS THE GLASS SUNROOF SHATTERED AND FELL IN ON MY DAUGHTER AND ME. THERE WAS NO OTHER CAR NEAR ME. NOTHING HIT MY CAR. I CALLED HYUNDAI WAS TOLD THAT IT WASN'T COVERED BY THEM AND WOULD BE MY RESPONSIBILITY TO HAVE FIXED. I WAS STUCK ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH THE GLASS LITERALLY FALLING IN ON US. I CLOSED THE COVER AND WE DROVE VERY SLOWLY (ABOUT 15 MILES) TO A PLACE WHERE WE COULD VACUUM UP THE GLASS. IT WAS IN BOTH THE FRONT AND BACK SEATS. WE CUT OUR HANDS TRYING TO CLEAN IT UP BUT WE HAD NO CHOICE. THE GLASS CONTINUED TO FALL AS WE DROVE AND RAIN WAS PREDICTED. WE HAD TO DO OUR BEST TO BE ABLE TO DRIVE IT ANOTHER 30 MILES TO PLACE TO GET IT WORKED ON. IT'S BEEN 24 DAYS (YES, RENTAL CAR FEES!) AND I STILL AND WAITING ON MY CAR. I DON'T WANT THE SUNROOF ANY LONGER BECAUSE I'M SCARED IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN BUT I THINK I'M STUCK WITH IT. THE MAN AT THE REPAIR PLACE BELIEVES IT WAS A FAULTY PRESSURE REGULATOR. I DON'T HAVE ANY RECEIPTS FOR THE REPAIRS YET BECAUSE I STILL DON'T HAVE MY CAR BACK. IT WAS VERY SCARY AND NOT SURE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO SOMEONE DRIVING ON A BUSY HIGHWAY IF THIS OCCURS.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
HI, I BOUGHT A HYUNDAI SANTA FE 2014 ON DECEMBER LAST YEAR AND A FEW MONTHS AGO IT'S STARTED TO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE BSD (BLIND SPOT DETECTOR). FOR SOME REASON IT'S JUST STOP WORKING FROM A FEW HOURS AND IT'S TURN ON AGAIN BY ITSELF. I CAN READ IN THE DASH SCREEN THE WARNING (BSD NO WORKING). I MAKE AN APPOINTMENT WITH HYUNDAI SERVICE CENTER BUT THEY CAN'T HELP ME BECAUSE THE CAR DON'T GIVE TO THEM ANY CODE REGARDING THIS PROBLEM. FOR ME THIS IS A BIG ISSUE BECAUSE SOMETIME WORKS AND SOMETIMES NOT, THIS CAN LEAD ME TO AN ACCIDENT. TYPICALLY THIS HAPPEN WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION.

I WENT TO A DEALERSHOP, THEY INSPECTED MY CAR BUT COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. HOWEVER MY CAR STOPPED WORKING ON THE LOCAL AREA , 2015 SEP.4TH. AGAIN, THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG IN MY CAR. I ASKED HYUNDAI HEADQUARTER AND DEALERSHIP TO CHECK IF THERE IS A REPORT REGARDING THIS ISSUE, THEY DO NOT GIVE ME ANY ANSWER ABOUT IT. PLEASE CHECK AND LET ME KNOW WHAT I AM SUPPOSED TO DO. I DO NOT WANT TO GET KILLED ON THE ROAD AND KILL SOMEONE BECAUSE OF MY CAR.
