Vehicle blew a head gasket. Mechanic said rear bank head bolts were not torqued to spec. Was of the opinion it came off the assembly line that way. I never had it max to red level on overheating and was shocked that the engine was damaged. The vehicle began to sporadic temp spikes then back down before I could even pull off. This happened on residential streets, on the interstate, anywhere really. This happened one day, then would be fine for a week, then started it again. I was on my way home from church and the engine temp started acting sporadically. I would pull off and it would cool within a second or 2. I tried to make it home, but the engine temp gauge stopped cooling back down to quickly. I called aaa and had it towed to a mechanic. Blown head gasket. Almost $5,000 to fix. I have taken prestine care of this auto. My 2nd Hyundai vehicle but now I'm looking at other brands. A little gun shy of Hyundais now.

My Santa Fe has only 78,000 miles on it and has been maintained very well. Despite this, during our evacuation for hurricane irma, the engine completely locked up on the highway, driving about 70 mph with cruise control. The vehicle was not under strain, we were not towing anything and only had 2 persons in the car. We were left having to get the vehicle towed to a repair shop where I was informed the the theta ii 2. 4l engine that was in my vehicle was on recall. However the recall only covered this engine in the Hyundai sonata models and for some reason was not covered in the Santa Fe. I can't imagine why an identical engine would be recalled for this problem in one model vehicle but not in another. I had even had the oil changed 3 weeks prior, which the mechanic confirmed that everything appeared fully functional and in good working order with the oil, transmission and cooling system.

While driving in rain and high humidity, going south on route 95, a/c cooling stopped working and only warm air was blowing through the vents. Stopped working for over an hour, until I stopped for gas in ft. Piece. When I restarted, it began to work and worked for another 20 minutes before it stopped. I brought it to the dealer on Jun 3. Dealer said he could not reproduce the problem and would do nothing. It happened again on Jun 13 while driving. I went back to the dealer and he again said he could not reproduce it and would do nothing. I reported it Hyundai would said it could not be reproduced and would do nothing. I found numerous instances, on the internet, of people reporting this problem, but was told unless I could reproduce on my vehicle, nothing would be done. I have to wait for it to happen again and hope the car dealer is open.

Driving from my mother's home, where I was visiting, to the grocery store not three miles away my 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe all of sudden lost power and started overheating. I was able to pull it off the road and called roadside service for assistance. This being the fourth of July long weekend, the orlando dealership was not open. The following day I spoke to the service assistant at orlando Hyundai. Several hours later, I was informed that the radiator was damaged and not a warranty item, the repair was $700. Being from out of the area I had no choice but to pay the money and get the car fixed. The cause of the failure, according to the service manager, was some item damaged the radiator and using his words "probably road debris" passing through the grill. He continued the explanation that there are not barriers that would prevent small items from passing through the grill and damaging the condenser and radiator while traveling on the highways. Asking the service manager if this could happen again, he replied yes. The failure of Hyundai to foresee, design and provide any type of screen barrier behind the grill allows any type of debris to cause harm to the condenser or radiator at any time. The vehicle was repaired on July 5, 2008 by orlando Hyundai in orlando FL. I disputed this claim as subjective to Hyundai of America as soon as I returned. They sent me to my local dealer, jenkins Hyundai of bradenton. The service manager there told me he couldn't do anything. I was given the runaround. I suggest the following solution, sent in by another compliant, should be listened to. A small amount of hardware cloth attached to the back of the grill would deflect most all debris and protect the condenser and radiator from damage while still allowing ample air flow. Today, my car overheated again! I will bring it to the dealer tomorrow without confidence in this product or the warranty which is why I bought the car in the first place.
