CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2012 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 to owners in August 2014, 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.
When I bought the car in 2016. After couple thousand kilometers the banging noise started when backing up and only when I back up. Took it to mechanic checked rear brake calipers, every thing seems fine. It still a ongoing thing. Pissed off with Hyundia.
