Recently reported Visibility problems of the 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe

The Wiper problem

The sunvisors for passenger and driver are defective. I have had the car since 2013 and have had to replace both visors at least once a year, if not more frequently. The visor will suddenly break, swing down, impairing vision of the driver while the car is in motion, including highway speeds.   Read details...

The Rear Window Defogger problem

Driving ~10-15 mph in public park, 2 kids in carseats in back seat. Weather was rainy. I had just turned on the rear window defroster for defog about 4-5 minutes prior. Sudden loud "boom" and rear/back window exploded, sending shards of glass into passenger compartment.   Read details...
