WE WERE DRIVING DOWN 231 WHEN SUDDENLY MY CAR STOPS AND WE TRY TO GET IN NON TRAFFIC...WHEN WE GO TO CRANK IT...IT SOUNDS LIKE THE ENGINE IS FALLING APART...WE HAVE REGULAR OIL CHANGES! NOW THEY SAY MY ENGINE IS BLOWN? WHAT IS GOING ON HERE? RECALL

WHILE UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS, AFTER OPERATING FOR APPROX. 10 MINUTES, I WAS DRIVING ON A STATE ROUTE WITH TRAFFIC AND THE ENGINE COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. NO WARNING, NO DASH WARNING LIGHTS, NOT STALLING OF ENGINE, IT SIMPLY SHUT OFF. HAD TO PULL OFF SIDE OF ROAD, THRU TRAFFIC, AND LEAVE VEHICLE SITTING UNTIL IT COULD BE TOWED.

2013 HYUNDAI SANTA FE SPORT - HAD ENGINE REPLACED DUE TO RECALL END OF JUNE 2019. OCTOBER 6TH CAR STARED BUCKING AND UNABLE TO GO MORE THAN 3-5 MPH WITH PEDAL TO FLOOR. CAR TOWED TO HYUNDAI WHO AFTER INSPECTION SAID IT WAS THROTTLE BODY. COST TO REPAIR WAS JUST ABOUT $900. HAD TO RENT CAR IN ORDER TO GET TO WORK. PICKED UP CAR ON MONDAY NIGHT. WEDNESDAY MORNING MADE IT ABOUT 2 MILES FROM HOUSE AND CAR DID EXACTLY THE SAME THING. HAD IT TOWED TO HYUNDAI AGAIN!!! THE PROVIDED A RENTAL CAR THIS TIME. THEY RESET CODE AND CHECKED THAT THROTTLE BODY WAS PROPERLY INSTALLED AND THAT ALL CONNECTIONS TIGHT. HYUNDAI SAID THEY DROVE CAR FOR 60 MILES AND COULD NOT REPLICATE PROBLEM. PRIOR TO PICK UP I INFORMED HYUNDAI SERVICE MANAGER THAT I WAS NOT CONFIDENT THAT THEY FIXED PROBLEM. PICKED UP CAR FRIDAY. IT IS NOW MONDAY MORNING (3 DAYS LATER) AND DIDN'T EVEN MAKE IT OUT OF MY DEVELOPMENT. SAME PROBLEM!!! SHAME ON HYUNDAI!!! I AM FEARFUL TO DRIVE THIS CAR EVEN IF THEY FIX THIS PROBLEM. DON'T TRUST THAT ENGINE REPLACEMENT WAS DONE CORRECTLY.

MY ENGINE IS VERY LOUD AND IS KNOCKING. I HAVE A FEW FRIENDS WHO HAVE THE SAME VEHICLE AND THEIRS IS QUITE BARELY HEAR IT RUNNING. I SENT A LETTER TO THE HYUNDAI CORPORATE OFFICE TO COMPLAINT HEARD NOTHING BACK MY VEHICLE HAS A LITTLE OVER 64,000 MILES ONE OF MY FRIENDS HAS 93,000 MILES AND HER SANTA FE IS QUITE. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THERE IS SOMETHING GOING ON WITH MY VEHICLE,ALSO THE OILD STICK LOOKS BURNT.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AROUND 65MPH WITH MY WIFE AND 6 MONTH OLD WHEN I REALIZED THAT APPLYING THE GAS PEDAL WAS HAVING NO EFFECT. THE TACHOMETER SHOWED 0 RPM. I APPLIED THE BRAKES BUT THEY WERE VERY HARD TO PRESS. I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY PULL OVER. WE THEN NOTICED A BURNING SMELL AND A LITTLE SMOKE AND GOT OUT OF THE CAR. THE VEHICLE WOULD MAKE NO ATTEMPT TO START AND HAD TO BE TOWED. THE HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP HAS TOLD ME THE CRANKSHAFT SEIZED. THEY ARE SUBMITTING DOCUMENTATION TO HYUNDAI FOR WARRANTY AUTHORIZATION RELATED TO THE RECALLS INVOLVING ENGINE FIRES. THE VEHICLE GAVE NO WARNING THAT ANYTHING WAS WRONG UNTIL AFTER THE ENGINE STOPPED.

ENGINE FAILED ON HIGHWAY, HAD TO PULL OVER AND CAR NEVER STARTED BACK UP.

AT LESS THAN 73,000 MILES, MY ENGINE STARTED "KNOCKING" ON MY 2013 HYUNDAI SANTA FE. BROUGHT IT IN TO TONY HYUNDAI WAPAIO FOR A DIAGNOSTIC. METAL SHAVINGS WERE FOUND IN THE OIL. OFFICIAL ASSESSMENT: PREMATURE BEARING WEAR WITHIN THE ENGINE.

HAD OIL CHANGED 1,100 MILES AGO. THREW A ROD, RUINED ENGINE. MECHANIC SAID MY DIPSTICK WAS 'BONE DRY'. IT WASN'T EVEN TOUCHING THE OIL. MY OIL WAS CHANGED AT THE DEALERSHIP. I'VE BEEN TOLD BY ENGINE PARTS SUPPLIER THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH MY YEAR, MAKE, AND MODEL. HE DIDN'T KNOW THE DETAILS OF MY ISSUE AT ALL. YET DESCRIBED IT PERFECTLY . I WAS DRIVING ON A BUSY HIGHWAY WHEN ENGINE FAILED. I WAS TRAVELING 65 MPH WHICH WAS THE SPEED LIMIT. I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO SIDE OF ROAD.

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE ENGINE COMPLETELY SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING AND THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD. FIGURED IT WAS THE ALTERNATOR, CHANGED IT OUT AND NOW THE CAR MAKES A VERY LOUD CLICKING NOISE. HAD IT DIAGNOSED AND IT NEEDS NEW LIFTERS ALONG WITH POSSIBLE MACHINING OF THE PISTONS/HEAD TO GET THEM SMOOTH AND THE MECHANIC STATED THE CAR WAS A FEW HUNDRED REVOLUTIONS FROM SEIZING. ADDITIONALLY THERE WERE SMALL METAL SHAVINGS IN THE OIL WHEN CHANGED, WAS TOLD IT WAS A TOP END PROBLEM (HENCE THE LIFTERS). I CALLED THE HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP IN DOVER DE AND THEY STATED THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE BUT NO RECALL SO THEY'RE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING IT!!

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN I ACCELERATED TO PASS A CAR, IT STARTED TO LOSE POWER. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SHOULDER HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP.

THEY HAD THE CAR FOR 3 MONTHS. 1 MONTH LATER SAME EXACT PROBLEM. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD IT WAS BECAUSE OF THE RECALL. WHY WOULD THIS HAPPEN AGAIN WITH A NEW ENGINE? I WAS TOLD THEY GOT A BAD BATCH OF ENGINES AND A NEW ENGINE WAS REPLACED WITH A NEWER ENGINE. THIS TIME THEY HAD THE CAR FOR A MONTH. I PICK UP THE CAR 4 DAYS LATER SAME PROBLEM.
