Multiple complaints about the engine stalling while driving at different speeds causing very dangerous situations the vehicle looses power steering and proper braking mine has done this once so far and I have seen multiple complaints online of the same this happening to others who own the same year make model of the vehicle.
I have a 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe sport 2. 0 with 8500 miles on it. Since I took possession of this car, I have been having repeated occurrences of engine stalling coupled with the traction control light going on. This happens when I make either left or right turns into traffic: acceleration stalls completely for 2-3 seconds, and the traction control warning light flashes. I cannot get the car to accelerate at all, even with the pedal fully depressed to the floor. The engine revs extremely hard, but the car does not accelerate. This happens on completely dry pavement. There is something seriously wrong with the 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe, and someone is going to die as a result of this problem. I have come close to being rear ended multiple times, and I have nearly been t-boned when taking a turn in front of on-coming traffic. I have researched this problem online, and it is wide spread with hundreds of identical complaints. This needs to be addressed immediately before someone dies in the 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe.
2017 Santa Fe sport 2. 0t ultimate awd - hesitation occurs when accelerating from low speeds, most frequently observed when making turns. Stepping on the accelerator causes the traction control light to blink and the engine to effectively stall out for a few seconds. When the throttle does engage after the hesitation, it is in a violent manner. This happens more frequently than not, and is incredibly dangerous. I've owned this vehicle for over a year and have 20,000+ miles on it. This is a reoccurring issue. Had I been aware of this site, I would've filed a complaint immediately.
While driving at a slow speed in a parking lot, the vehicle engine stalled and the driver lost the ability to steer or otherwise control the vehicle.
Vehicle was in motion on a country road when the engine stalled and the driver lost the ability to steer or otherwise control the vehicle. After having the vehicle towed into the shop, the cylinder number 1 fuel injector was replaced and there was excessive amounts of fuel in the oil.
Engine stalled (died) when attempting to cross 3 lanes of traffic. This occurred 2 times when on vacation. Vehicle was returned to dealer for service. Dealer had vehicle for over a month and said they couldn't duplicate problem. During this time there was a national recall issued by Hyundai for Santa Fe. I thought are problems would be solved. But was informed that the recall only covered upto production year 2015. We received a 2017 Santa Fe loaner for use during the time they assessed our vehicle, this vehicle also stalled. I reported this to the service Mar. He said he couldn't do anything until Hyundai authorized a recall for 2017. I told him that they probably won't until they sold off all their new vehicle inventory. We took our vehicle home. 1 day later the vehicle stalled when my wife pulled out on to a busy highway. These vehicles are a significant safety hazard.
The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe. While driving, the engine stalled without warning. The dealer and manufacturer were not notified. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 9,000.
Engine stalling at slow speeds. Further, at slow speeds, there is a significant delay of several seconds for power delivery. For example, if driving slowly, say at 5 mph, and power is needed immediately (such as in an emergency or a lane change situation), nothing happens for over 3 seconds when the accelerator pedal is depressed, followed by a dangerous lurch when power is delivered suddenly. This is a highly dangerous and unacceptable condition. I spoke to the dealer, who dismissed my complaint and claimed that "all cars are the same these days". This is a regular problem that occurs multiple times every day.
Engine stalls at any speeds while driving. Tech at dealership could not find the problem. Dealership stated they never had a problem like this before. The engine is a 2. 0t which was subject to recalls for the same problem. Hyundai currently settling class action suit for Hyundai sonatas with the same problem in model years 2011-2014 2. 0t engines. Speeds when occurring 40-65 mph. Eleven incidents so far since purchasing the vehicle 4/8/2016.
