Engine Noise problems of the 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe

11/21/2020 around 12 pm we were pulling out on to the highway in heavy Saturday traffic in between roswell and norcross. As we were accelerating to get onto the road the engine seized and we couldn't get the car to respond. The pedal was being pushed to the floor and the car wouldn't respond. There were no dashboard warning lights or any loud engine noises to say there was an issue. No smoke or steam. We were able to direct the car onto a side street but the car stopped in the middle of the side street. The car electronics started going crazy, the navigation screen and interior lights kept turning themselves on and off like it was a computer rebooting. We smelled something burning so I turned the car off and we got out of the car. . I let the car rest for a few minutes and tried to turn it back on so we could get it in to a safer position and get help but the car wouldn't restart. We even tried using the battery jumper box to try to get it restarted but it wouldn't respond. Had the car towed to the dealership. This car has a theta gdi engine that is currently part of a recall but when I look up my VIN the recall doesn't show up.

The car is a 2014 Santa Fe and out of the blue I started to hear a strange noise from my engine area. Multiple dealerships confirmed that it was the engine that needed to be replaced. One dealership assured me that it would be covered due to a recent recall on Santa Fe engines but come to find out the recall was for a different engine type and not mine. While researching online I have seen several complaints of engine failure for the same type of engine that my Santa Fe has. The car isn't safe to drive at all and when I contacted Hyundai about offering some sort of assistance and to cover the costs of the engine, they refused to do so. There should be a recall and the 3. 3 engines as well. I have had several cars before and never have I ever had an engine fail me.

Vehicle began making a noise out of nowhere, no light indications, nothing. Suddenly the engine died on the interstate, again, no light indications until the vehicle actually stopped running. Vehicle was towed to local shop, found out it had absolutely no oil in it, but there was no oil leak. Engine had broken and told we needed a new engine. Hyundai then told us that they no longer make the 2014 engine, so a replacement would cost $11,000 and have 96,000 miles on it. Our Santa Fe had 73,000 miles on it when this occurred. Sudden engine failure with no indication of an issue, while traveling at a high rate of speed on the interstate could have produce a horrible, if not fatal accident.

I get regular oil changes on my car and have receipts of my last 2 oil changes, but there was no oil in my car and the bearings were dry and rubbing which cause metal shavings to go into my engine. Vehicle was making a noise when I pulled into a Hyundai dealership and they diagnosed it.

Tl the contact owns a 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe. While driving 65 mph, the contact heard a knocking and pinging noise. The contact pulled over, turned off the vehicle, restarted it, and the noises continued while driving 65 mph. The vehicle lost power and the check engine indicator illuminated. The vehicle was towed to rockland Hyundai (55 NY-303, west nyack, NY 10994, (845) 402-8623) where metal shavings were found in the oil pan. The dealer stated that there was no recall, but were reviewing all maintenance records to see if they would repair the vehicle via the current warranty. The manufacturer was contacted and referred the contact back to the dealer. The failure mileage was 78,000.

My car started making a weird humming screeching noise and then the next day it would not start. Found out the bearings have failed and caused complete engine failure. Its the same problem with your 2011-2013 models so the 2014 should be included in that recall. We have spent tons of money keeping the car updated on maintenance for college and this is completely inappropriate for a 2014 to have this happen. The vehicle was in motion when the first noise was noticed then parked immediately thank goodness at her dorm where the car, then would not start the next day and was towed.

While on a family road trip, my Santa Fe started clattering and making noise. It had been running fine and no indicator lights were on. The car just quit in the middle and we had to coast to safety on the side of the road where we waited for hours for Hyundai roadside assistance to tow us to the local dealership. The engine is blown due to a recall. It has now been longer than 60 days and Hyundai does not have an engine to replace it. I have learned that there is now a second recall involving a faulty hood latch which is also a safety hazard.
