Car will not start in the morning, dead battery, have to use battery charger every night. Car emits white smoke. When on freeway car will not go above 60mph, seems like it is in limp mode.
There is a recall on the engine for 2014 Santa Fe recall # 162.. I was informed by Hyundai mfg that my car needs to be inspected right away. My engine is vibrating and the engine light came on three times. I am at risk and very concerned. The dealer did absolutely nothing and advised that theres no remedy. The mfg however is saying there''s a remedy to replace the engine block. Very frustrating dealing with the dealer but gave car back to me. I would like to get to the bottom of this engine recall and what exactly is going to be done about it. I pray that I will be safe and my kids.

I just want to complain about the delay on the remedy for the recall of the engine block. They said it was going to be ready in may, it is now May 31st and nothing has happened.

I purchased the car in Aug. 2014 manufactured in ga July 2014. The car will unpredictably upon starting up lacks power it has been in and out of the shop with no fix. It will hardly go until you stop turn the engine off then restart it at which point it resets and regains its power as before. I am concerned this is very similar to the recalls that are occurring currently with this car but they stop recalls for the problem with those made 2012- May 2014, this car was made 2 months later and is having the same issue as those described in the recall for bearing damage. Please look into this as the problem did not stop with the cars in May 2014. The dealership has no resolve for the issue and I am certain it is the bearing issue after having reviewed the problem/recall with the cars manufactured just months prior at the ga facility. It has exhibited this problem multiple times.
Takata recall very low quality of material used for the rubber hose that connects the coolant. My Santa Fe's rubber hose deteriorated which caused a leak. Without any warnings or changes in the temp gauge, I drove the car normally until one morning I was on the parkway and each time I would accelerate the engine would have a hard time, it felt like I am dragging. Finally got to my destination half an hr later and the engine overheated. Drove it next block over to a gas station popped the trunk open and the coolant was completely empty even though I just topped it off few days ago. Turned off my car to run in and get a bottle of coolant. Tried starting the car and it stalled. I waited about an hr and a half at the parking lot sitting and waiting and it finally started back up. Electrical issue: A couple of days ago, I was driving in my 2014 Santa Fe sport and the radio suddenly shut off thinking I pressed a button by accident. After a couple of minutes it turned back on. It was randomly doing it until two days ago it finally stopped working. I made an appointment with a Hyundai service agent. Vehicle at 40,000 miles apprarently it is not under warranty (36,000mi) ofcourse, for them to diagnose the problem they charge you about $140 after tax just to diagnose it. How much to fix the radio? agent said, "it will be about $1700 but since the lease is up I can put you in a brand new tucson and I will fix the radio free of charge and credit you back for the diagnostics charge". I walked out of the dealership. And airbag light keeps coming on pas side.

As a result I struck a vehicle stopped on the shoulder of the interstate. The airbags in the other vehicle deployed. The airbags in my vehicle did not deploy. The front end collision was bad enough that the SUV was declared a total loss. The adjuster also found that the firewall had split and appeared to be faulty. Due to the airbags not deploying during the collision I suffered a concussion and various other injuries as well as loss of hours at work, loss of pay, medical bills and expenses in addition to owning money on my car loan as the insurance did not cover the cost of the loan.

The Hyundai sonata engines have been recalled for safety concerns because they can stall at any time. The Santa Fe sports have the same engines but have not been recalled. Mine did just this. Luckily I was on a quiet road with no one behind me.
While driving the vehicle around town, the engine suddenly started making a loud knocking noise. The mileage was at 63K miles. We stopped driving it immediately and took it to the dealer who services it for us (maple hill kalamazoo) and were informed the engine seized. The first thing they did was check the oil, which was full. They have done all of our service for us. They said there is something banging around inside the engine. In searching the internet I found there is a recall for the sonata engine (15V568000). The engine in our car is the same 4 cylinder engine as in the sonata. The service manager at maple hill contacted the Hyundai factory rep who told him to take the engine apart and send him pictures. The service manager said I don't know what they are going to do, but I think they will work with you.
