2007 Hyundai Santa Fe Owner Comments

problem #2

Santa Fe GLS

Hyundai announced a recall for the Veracruz model for the exact same issue. Oil leaks due to faulty design or faulty components cause oil to lead onto alternator which causes severe electrical problems and complete loss of power while driving. Also leads to failure of alternator and charging system. While the problem is the same as that identified in the Veracruz, Hyundai has not extended the recall to the Santa Fe. This should be addressed and the same recall applied to the 2007 Santa Fe (and presumably later models as well).

Santa Fe Limited V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 110,000 miles

This was the 2nd front valve cover replacement and alternator replacement. This one not under warranty. Oil had leaked onto the alternator and killed it.
