2003 - Hyundai Santa Fe - March 29, 2011. The front right spring broke on my Santa Fe and punctured the tire. Luckly I was just pulling out of a parking lot and not on the road. Had this happened while I was driving, I may not be here today. I had to replace both front springs, struts, and four new tires for the entire cost of $1300. I would like Hyundai to be responsible for this repair cost since it was there defected spring that broke.

Was just pulling the car down the drive way and the front passenger side tire blew out. I stopped the car and a friend was going to change the tire. He noticed the spring had broken loose and punctured the tire. The car had been sitting in the drive way for 12 to 15 hours before we went to drive it. We had not even made it on the road and was only going a couple miles per hour and about 15 to 20 feet. We were on our way, going out of town and were thankful that we did not have this happen going 65 mph on the highway were we could have been hurt or hurt some one else. Several times a week we have a new born and a two year old in this vehicle. Thankfully they were not with us. This front end suspension problem needs to be looked at, somebody is not going to be as lucky as we were. For us it was the drive way and not driving on the high way at a high speeds with our family.

Passanger side spring seperated causing tire damage.
I was travelling down the highway at 70mph when, all of a sudden, I heard a bang and the car veered out of control. It was a terrifying experience. I regained control of the car I was able to safely pull to the side of the road to investigate and I noticed that the coil spring broke. The following day I brought my vehicle to the Hyundai dealer and they charged an outrageous amount to replace. Not very likely that I would purchase another Hyundai.

One month ago,with 40,600 miles on my Hyundai Santa Fe the right front spring broke and shredded my tire which the Hyundai dealer replaced under warranty. Three weeks later the left front spring broke and shredded that tire also. If I had been on the express way, I probably wouldn't be here to tell about it. In the past fifty years I have owned 15 cars and never had a front spring break down much less two in three weeks. Even though the Hyundai dealer,patrick of schaumburg, replaced these springs under warranty, I still incurred a $200. 00 car rental bill. Hyundai doesn't seem to know what the cause is of these spring failures at only 40,600 miles. Any help as to the cause of this problem would be greatly appreciated.
