I bought this 2007 Santa Fe in November, 2007. I took good care of the car and had done all maintenance at Hyundai dealers. Since the summer of 2011 (car mileage less than 48000 miles), I felt the car had abnormal noise from front, also felt suspension became bumpy. So I brought it to the dealer in December, 2011. They found both left and right front suspension sway bar links were worn out. Those parts are not supposed to be wear parts. But Hyundai refused to admit their failure within warranty is a quality issue. As part of the suspension system, their failure could result in dangerous situation to people. I want them to admit that part failure and recall it.

Second set of tires cupping. First set replaced at 23000 miles. Current tires bad at 58000 miles. Have no reason for this. Tire rotation done every 5000 miles. Tires not over-inflated. Not alignment issue, although alignment was done and bolts replaced at 23000 miles. Sounds like a Hyundai suspension problem.

Rattling underneath front on uneven pavement. Stabilizer bar replaced at 79,000 miles. I don't believe this is normal "wear and tear".

This complaint refers to the SRS airbag system in the Santa Fe. While the airbag system is intact I have been told by a certified Hyundai repair center that the clock spring and the junction box have failed. Given the premature nature of this failure I believe that this system is flawed and represents a widespread hazard to the american public. In addition, all four brake rotors and the sway bar needed to be replaced with less than 70,000 miles due to excessive wear which rendered them unsafe (according to the aforementioned center).

2007 Hyundai Santa Fe - the tires are prematurely wearing out. Every 15 months or so the tires must be replaced. Good tires and rotated regularly. There is something wrong. There are too many other people with the same problem. The dealer has replaced sway/tie rods, aligned tires, still tires wear out. Vehicle is still under warranty but the cost of the tires comes out of my pocket. Something must be done to identify the cause of this.

I just had to have my rear brakes completely done at a cost of 500 dollars. I heard no noise, and there was no indication that there was any problems with the brakes except the fact that the brake light was on. I drive 95% highway and consequently very rarely use my brakes. I also had to have a front end alignment done and now my rear alignment is out of whack.

Major problems with our 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe including gas tank door latch needing to be replaced, car shaking uncontrollably, which the dealer diagnosed as a coil issue. The last problem led to the car being towed to the dealer. They are replacing the transmission due a failure of the car to accelerate and then lurch into gear, creating a very dangerous situation.
