2017 HYUNDAI SANTA FE Complaints

The check engine light came on one day and then before I could take it in to be checked, about two days, the light had turned back off again so I thought it was fine. Then, I was driving 2 hours from my home and on the way back the engine started to make a terrible knocking and screeching noise. It seemed like it was going to break down. I was on a country road so I quickly turned around and made my way back to a truck stop about a mile away. I had to pay to get the car towed to my local dealership an hour away. While at the dealership, after inspection, I was told it was a Rod Bearing Failure in my engine. This absolutely put me at risk as I was driving a far distance and an hour from my home. The dealership then got my service records and gave them to my extended warranty carrier- Assurant. They agreed to cover the over $10,000 cost with just my $50 copay. The car now has a different, used motor in it. My concern now is that I have had the same problem that other Santa Fe's have had in prior years but this one doesn't have a recall. Now, I'm driving with another one of these motors with worries that I'll have the same problem as before and be responsible for the fix. I asked the dealership and Hyundai USA case manager if they would warranty this new to me, used motor AND reimburse me for the 40 days that I had to pay for a rental vehicle and was told NO.

My O2 sensor failed and is under my insurance investigation due to engine light that came on and upon inspection it was determined to have caught on fire under the vehicle. My safety and my children's were at risk potentially may have gone up in flames. Currently the insurance is pending review of any recalls for O2 sensor to determine if Hyundai is handling damages. At this time Hyundai has not taken responsibility.

While on a road trip, the engine light came on. A further check at a Hyundai authorized mechanic showed the engine had suffered from high oil consumption and ran low on oil. There was no obvious oil leak. As a result, I must replace the engine and I am unsure if Hyundai will cover the cost.

Just received another letter from Hyundai (First one in Feb./March this one in June) telling me about the same problem with the ABS System and how it might short out and cause an engine fire. STILL NO REMEDY! The letter said I'd receive a second notice ...I guess they meant a third notice! What's taking so long to find a fix??? I'm supposed to be confident taking this vehicle on a trip knowing it may short out and cause a fire at any time while driving or parked!?? This is not acceptable.

I own a Hyundai Santa Fe Sport 2017 white pearl. On April 25th, 2022 I drove non-stop for a couple of hours. The car never before showed any symptoms and it is always parked in my indoor garage. When I left home it was in perfect condition and then when I reached the destination the hood had several paint peelings. I went to Hyundai Philpott in Nederland, TX and they told me that they are aware of this problem and that I should wait for a recall to be made since many cars like mine were having the same issue (especially the white ones).
