problem #2

Jun 202016

Santa Fe

  • 100 miles
When depressing the accelerator at speeds less than about 10mph, the vehicle has a very significant hesitation - about 2 seconds when the vehicle is completely non-responsive. Happens every time at low speed turns, and is dangerous with vehicles behind.

problem #1

Santa Fe

  • 500 miles
The car appears to hesitate upon acceleration from a low speed, most noticeably coming out of turns. The hesitation is random and jerks the car forward and back. I took in for service and they say no fix is available. Dealer said it was not a safety issue but a satisfaction issue. That is a false statement, as it is indeed a huge safety issue. Others have indicated a similar problem as well in the Santa Fe online forums (www.santafeforums.com/acceleration-issues-T10953.html?S=8588ca5231adda19bda5C53064ae9cc8&T=10953)
