NHTSA complaint #11234688, filed 2019-07, 50,000 miles“Abs, downhill, and traction control indicator lights illuminate on the dash. Hyundai dealer says a rear wheel bearing/wheel speed sensor is failing and needs to be replaced. They said they've seen this many times and when looking online these seem destined to fail on my hyndai Santa Fe's 3-6 years into the vehicle life. There is a TSB for this issue that says it relates to sea water, but it may just be any water/wet conditions. I believe a recall is needed for this issue.”
NHTSA complaint #11398670, filed 2021-03, 65,000 miles“All wheel drive system does not engage. Was told by Hyundai service team that this is a recurring problem in the Santa Fe and a very expensive fix. I myself have seen hundreds of people with this issue on various forums. Car only has 123,000 miles as of 12/21/2020”
NHTSA complaint #11384586, filed 2020-12, 118,000 miles“I was driving east to an ave, but another driver hit me on the passenger side. When the driver hit my car we spinned half way. The passenger sitting on the passenger side got hurt on her arm. The accident was sort of big. The car door on passenger side and the door behind the passenger was dented in. Getting hit that hard should have deployed the airbag and the Hyundai emergency calling system. However none of them were working when the car was hit. …”
