problem #1

Oct 012013

Santa Fe

  • Automatic transmission
  • 27,962 miles

My vehicle started to vibrate occasionally, I brought it in many, many times, it would not do it for them. So eventually it started to violently shake and they finally said oh maybe there is a problem! So to this point they made me feel like I was just crazy and it cost me days in wages because I would bring it down and they would keep it to "look" for the issue, I wouldn't drive it to meetings out of town. I didn't trust it.

Eventually they said there was a clamp missing, one that held the axle together, but I was never in danger, they say!! I feel this is an important piece of the car and one someone should have noticed earlier, I was driving this for 12 months before they found it. I still do not trust the vehicle and dealership. I will never recommend Hyundai anything to anyone!!!!
