CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2011 Hyundai Santa Fe has a problem with the engine stalling while driving. Both our data & the NHTSA's complaint data show a significant defect trend at low mileage.
In a 2-page letter sent August 2014 to Santa Fe owners, Hyundai claims the engine stalling only occurs under a "specific set of operating conditions".
However a class action lawsuit filed around the same time details multiple claims from Sante Fe owners that claim the engine stalling happens at any time, under any conditions.
2011 has top coat peeling on hood, handles and black metal
2011 Santa fe clear coat peeling on hood getting bigger by the day. 3 handles are peeling. and the black trim piece. I have contacted the place I purchased it from, the only thing they will replace is the trim piece. its so very sad that I still owes so much money and a new car it looks 15 years old.
I have contacted Hyundai Regional office and its past 3 years but not the 36,000 miles. they wont help me out. I have only 22,000. not sure what I'm going to do as im in the red. on this car, I had to trade another one in for this one as it was a lemon with many electrical issues.
on Edmonds there is hundreds of complaints something needs to be rectified.
"I'm a very unhappy driver. its embarrassing
