2017 HYUNDAI SANTA FE Complaints

While Driving home the car just lost power while going 50mph. The engine started knocking then the engine light started flashing and the car wouldn't go above 37mph. This is definitely not good. I was holding up traffic trying to pull over while not being able to even do the speed limit. Also the oil consumption is outrageous! I have never owned a vehicle where I had to add oil as much as I do in this one.

I had to replace my engine at approximately 111,000 miles. Prior to replacing the engine, the car required frequent oil changes prior to the 3,000 mile time frame. I took it to the Hyundai dealership but they said because it wasn't this specific issue, it wasn't covered under the special extended warranty. The car received regular oil changes and maintenance. I had to take the car to another maintenance shop to have the car repaired.

Car is consuming oil quickly. After two thousand miles the entire tank is burned

The car started making a knocking sound, no service lights had been on prior to this or during this time, and within five minutes the car stopped working and shut down. I was able to get the car back on only to have it breakdown again within a minute. I was able to get it far enough into a parking spot to let it sit for about 15 minutes and when i turned it on again it had a horrible loud knocking sound, and yet still no service lights. The dealership said there was a bearing failure and that they are seeing it all the time and yet my make and model is not covered under the class action suits or engine repairs though they are seeing it in my make and model over and over again. Hyundai is refusing to assist.

I purchased this vehicle only 9 months ago. After driving it for about 2 months I noticed that the engine oil level was so low that the dipstick was about dry. I added oil and chalked it up to the vehicle maybe just having some age to it as the mileage was approaching 100,000 miles at that time. I continued to drive the vehicle checking the oil twice a week needing to add oil about a quart a week. About a month ago the car stalled on me and now i’m being told the engine has a cylinder number 4 failure.

The car burns oil excessively. I have never had to change my oil, because there is never any oil left. I can fill the engine with oil and check it a week later and it will be low. I have checked underneath the car when it has been sitting and there is no evident leak. This car goes through oil very quickly. There is a recall on this vehicle for an older year for the same exact issue I am having, but not a recall on this year of this vehicle.

I am having excessive oil consumption, pinging of the engine and a delay in acceleration. 2 quarts in 700 miles

Driving north on a southern California freeway at 65MPH and the engine lost complete power. The "Check Engine Light" immediately came on and I was able to safely coast off the freeway. I did not try to restart the car but instead had it towed to the nearest Hyundai dealer. The dealer replaced the spark plugs, performed a diagnostic test, and determined there was "low engine problem" and stated the engine needed to be replaced. They then said it might qualify for Hyundai's extended engine warranty program and submitted a claim. During this claim waiting period, I submitted a machanical breakdown claim to my auto insurance company who immediately sent a specialist to the dealer and reviewed the work done to date, and requested a compression test and determined it was a "top end problem". The insurance company specialist then requested the dealer remove valve cover and cylender head for further inspection and to confirm the car had been properly maintained. The dealer said the cost would be around $3,000 and the insurance company said this cost would be my responsibility. Days later, the dealer informed me Hyundai denied my extended engine warranty claim. In conclusion, I have self performed 90% of the oil and filter changes (using OEM filters) per manufactures recommendations and believe I have a valid claim under Hyundai's extended warranty.

Back in January 2022 my car stalled, I took it to my mechanic and he said that I had no oil. My car has 33175 miles. He filled it up. Four months later it stalled again, I brought to the same mechanic again, he told me to take it to the dealer because the car is consuming oil. May 18 2022 dropped the car off at the Hyundai dealer and they told me they were keeping it. After numerous phone calls to them they allowed me to pick up my car June 22 2002 and they did nothing, they told that my car had a consumption problem and that I need to drive it for one thousand miles and have the oil checked. July 12 2022 My milage now is 33397 he added oil. I came back after 510 miles and they had to put a quart of oil in, I have everything documented. Milage was 33685. September 19 2022 Mike added 1/2 quart of oil, milage was 34109. November 25 2022 milage was 34870 they added 2 1/2 quarts of oil. On January 23 2023 I called corporate and got a case number #20630111, not satisfied dealing with the dealer anymore. All the time I was going to the dealer no one documented anything that happened with the car. On February 24 2023 I brought the car back to the dealer and the oil consumption problem has been approved they put a tamper seal for the oil filter and drain plug to start the oil consumption test. My milage was 36129. I am petrified to drive the car for fear that I am going to stall out and get hit, I am 75 years old, I work, pick up grandkids and take care of my 101 year old mother, they don’t seem to care. I drove the car 1000 miles and on May 5 2023 I brought it back for an oil check up, it was 2 1/2 quarts short. I have a paper that says “time line of the recall” it says “the TSB instructed dealers to inspect and repair if the oil consumption was over 1 quart/ 1000 miles “ Every time I went to the dealer I took a picture of the dipstick and the milage. I was hoping you would be able to see that my car is not safe on the road and that I am petrified to drive it. Please help
