Hyundai Santa Fe sport 2. 0 engine 2015 as I was driving down the highway going about 75-80mph I started to hear a weird noise. When I decreased my speed the noise disappeared as I began to increase my speed the noise started again. It sounded like ticking/rattling noise. There was no indication lights that something was wrong. Nothing! I had to spend money to have the SUV towed to the dealership and for the dealership to tell me that the motor is gone and that it will cost me $5,500. 00 to have it fixed. I am not a happy camper.

2014 Hyundai Santa Fe sport- brake light/ abs light/ hill descent control light came on in vehicle and after a day or two never turned off. Took car to dealership and was asked to make appointment. The next day a triangle with exclamation point light turned on along with a steering wheel with exclamation point light and the steering wheel became loose at this time. Drove myself home and after parking I turned vehicle off but the engine continued to make humming noises like something was still running. Restarted car and then turned off engine again and the noise stopped. I went inside my house and less than 5 minutes later there was a loud banging on my front door- a neighbor that ran up to inform me my car was on fire. I completed regular maintenance on this vehicle and it only had 35,000 miles. Please look into this situation so that no others go through this devastating situation that I faced today.

Incident occurred on I-65. My husband and I were traveling home from a quick road trip. While passing another vehicle at 75mph, our sante made a weird noise, then loud sound and went dead. My husband fought to control the car, barely avoided a possible fatal crash. We called Hyundai roadside assistance and was told they only tow 47 miles. The nearest dealer was 50 miles away. We were left stranded, no service or tow truck from Hyundai showed up. Had to call family to come get us (nearly 3 hours away). We had to rent a uhaul auto transport and truck to recover our car on the side of I-65, heading to our hometown, we were stranded in verbena, al. Hyundai finally towed car to dealership once in hometown, was told by service tech that our car had "catastrophic engine damage and a new engine has been ordered, at no charge, due to our car was part of the recall. Was told we "might" be reimbursed for our incurred expense of having to tow the car ourselves. We purchased the car brand new, with an added roadside assistance package, which we were assured we'd never be stranded, which proved a useless sales ploy. 3 disabled persons and a highway patrol officer had to manually load the car onto the auto transport, one of which fell on the road and cut their knee. Why is additional roadside assistance offered when the dealership neglected to inform us that there was only a 47 mile towing radius. We were assured that "we'd be covered no matter where we might travel. We have a rental, which resulted in us paying a deposit out of our own pocket, "that should be refunded upon return of the rental". Full reimbursement and or a new car should be offered, due to the catastrophic engine damage (the term the Hyundai service tech used) that occurred to our 2014 Santa Fe sport with less than 53,000 miles. Thanks Hyundai roadside assistance for leaving us stranded.
