On Thursday-October 29,2014 I had a tire blowout. Then on Friday, October 30,2014 my brakes went out. This is my second time putting on brakes with this vehicle so often. And out of all of my vehicle ownerships I have never put brakes on before.

Santa Fe

2005 Santa Fe wheels are impossible to remove when attempting to rotate the tires. The dealer suggested bearing grease be applied each time the tire are rotated. The consumer contacted the manufacturer and they advised the consumer to take the vehicle to the dealer each time for service.
