My 2002 sante fe has been recalled for rear trailing arm repair and I've been informed by the dealer that they will not pay for a loaner car. The dealer is far from both my home and work and this will require me to rent a car at my expense. Repairing the defect is the very least Hyundai should do. To truly be at no cost to the consumer, the recall should include a loaner car, as it would with any warranty repair.
