Air Brake Antilock Problems of Hyundai Santa Fe

After starting the car each time, and either backing up and then pulling forward or pulling forward, there is a popping sound and a slight vibration in the accelerator pedal. I took the car back to the dealer and was told that it was the motor mounts, then it was the master cylinder. After having my boss who is a mechanic, drive the car, he said that it was neither of those items, and could possibly have someething to do with the drive train or the u-joints. I relayed this information to the service department and they then went back over the car, and said that they had to call their corporate office. After that call, I was informaed that the noise had to do with the abs system, checking itself. But I wonder if this is the case, since it only happens when I am in a forward motion. I enjoy driving this car, and would reccommend it to anyone who asked. It is comfortable, fun to drive and the noise hasn't seemd to alter the operation of the car and any form.

Usually when there are rainy conditons when I am attempting to inititate driving my vehicle, I have a problem with braking, the brakes will sound very loudly and experience excessive vibration and have extended stopping distance. In a few instances I almost hit other cars and the curb because the car would not stop.

Was pulling into parking lot of shopping mall, as I pulled into parking space I applied the abs brakes and they went all the way to the floor without stopping my vehicle. I then took my foot off the brake and applied it again, with the same results. Before I could use the emergency brake I struck the vehicle ahead of me.

The night I took delivery of the vehical I had electrical problems this was to be fix by dealership, well now 8/15/2004 there are more elec. Problems the fuses are blowing and the brakes are not stopping as should be. Also the trasmission when appling the gas pulls to the right, and between 40/60 mph jecksing sensation to the vehicle.

A crack in the windshield appeared one day. Nothing had hit the windshield. It is a small arc on the drivers side about 3" from the bottom of the windshield. When I brought it to the dealership they said that something hit it and the heat inside the car caused it to crack. The place where they said something hit the windshield only the point of a pin could fit in. I know nothing hit it. One a few occasions I have noticed a grinding sound coming from the transmission. I also have had the abs engage when the breaks were not being applied and the road surface dry. There wasn't a reason for them to engage.
