2019 Hyundai Santa FE Brakes Problems

“My vehicle applies the brakes while driving on busy roads when nothing is in my path. I've almost been rear ended a few times because of it and Hyundai has no resolution. Then also my vehicle has lane assist and the computer fought me steering the wheel while driving down the highway. Hyundai replaced steering components in the vehicle but don't know why it happened so they never diagnosed the problem. We have tried to go to Hyundai about the issue but basically they only care about our money we pay and not our safety.”

“I had rented a Hyundai sante fe in september 2019. I had the vehicle for a few weeks with no issues until I drove over the mountains. I had pulled into a parking lot and was looking to park, coasting through the parking lot, I then backed up and found a parking spot. I was turning right in at a very slow speed, a virtual crawl into a parking space when I pressed the brakes to stop the vehicle when it suddenly revs its engine and began accelerating out of control jumping over the front parking curb and slamming into a chain link fence. …”

“Stopped vehicle on side of neighborhood road on moderate downward incline. Placed vehicle in park and at idle. A few minutes later, shifted car into drive and proceeded to pull out into roadway. Vehicle seemed to lose power steering as well as power braking. As the vehicle turned a corner, it lost acceleration (car slowed to a stop as accelerator was pressed) , and tachometer decreased to zero. Pulled to side of road as car slowed to a stop. Total distance car travelled at this point was about 75 feet). Put car in park and turned off engine. …”

“Was at a complete stop at a light with a car in front me, I had plenty of space when I started accelerating and then suddenly the automatic system braked hard. Like there was literally NO REASON for what the car did. It took a few seconds to get out of that issue but then was able to proceed as normal. There have been at least 2 other times where a side sensor was triggered while on the freeway violently jerking me to the left, nearly putting into another lane.”

“The contact owned a 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe. The contact stated that as his daughter was driving at 20 MPH on the highway, she depressed the brake pedal, the brakes failed to respond, and the vehicle started to smoke from the engine and into the cabin. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact's daughter then tried to depress the brake pedal again, and the contact's daughter then jumped out of the vehicle on the ramp. …”
