2017 HYUNDAI SANTA FE SPORT Complaints

My vehicle is consuming oil at an unacceptable rate. I have to put oil in it weekly and the oil indicator light doesn’t work. It has been ongoing since I purchased it and the Hyundai service center said it was carbon build up which they had cleaned. It cost me over $500 and didn’t solve the issues. It also doesn’t always want to shift gears and feels like it’s starting to go into limp mode. Which I had to have my vehicle towed last year and they said it was spark plugs. I am extremely disappointed and regret getting this “certified” vehicle.

Starting in September 2022 the paint is peeling in several areas of 2017 Hyundai Santa fe with 36,000 miles. I have called many dealers around my area and No one will address this issue. All local Hyundai dealers refuse to address the recall . I called Hyundai corporate on several occasions and they refused to help me with this issue. I was told to find a dealer willing to paint it. There are not dealers with a Hyundai certified body shop that will paint it under the warranty. Hyundai sent a letter on Feb 13, 2023 stating the have extended the warranty but I am unable to get a dealer to repaint my peeling vehicle. Hyundai has refused to help me with this issue and told me if I cant find someone I will have to pay out of pocket for the paint to be fixed.
