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.

The dealer service representative - during the "free oil change" service - threatened me with cancelling my vehicle warranty if I did not have dealer-recommended maintenance performed. The dealer-recommended maintenance was nothing more than a multi-point inspection, fuel additive and detailing the interior - what a joke.
