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.

I have always taken great care of my vehicles, I never had any issues with Hyundai however this paint peeling is really horrible. I cant understand why they wont just resolve the issue and yet it is continuing with even newer models. It started about two weeks ago and yeah we all get road dings but all of a sudden I'm losing chunks at a time you can see the close up of the larger piece that its just going to continue. The cost to fix is going to be ridiculous.
