RECALL 194 IS RELATED TO POTENTIAL ELECTRICAL FIRE. THIS RECALL HAS BEEN OUT SINCE 9/2020 AND YET NO DEALERSHIP HAS PARTS TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I HAVE CALL AT LEAST 3 TIMES AND GET TOLD "PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE". LAT CALL IS THE DATE BELOW.

The contact owned a 2015 Hyundai Santa Fe. The contact stated while driving 25 mph, when he lost control of the vehicle and multiple warning lights were illuminated. The contact stated while attempting to park on the side of the road, he saw smoke entering the AC vents. The contact and his son (front passenger) were able to exit the vehicle before it exploded. The contact stated the fire was located in the front of the vehicle. The contact stated no one was injured nor sought medical attention. The fire department was able to extinguish the fire, but was unaware if a fire report was filed. The police report was filed. The vehicle was not drivable. The insurance company deemed the vehicle total loss. The vehicle was towed to a towing yard. The contact called the local dealer and made them aware of the failure. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The contact stated two days after the incident, he received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V303000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC) and associated the failure with this recall.

Leak which may cause a fire. This is second recall for same problem. I feel unsafe while driving. They say if ABS light comes on to stop immediately. Unable to park in my garage or close to the house. No incidents as of now. I do not understand why this is taking so long and we are expected to drive an unsafe vehicle. Value of car has also dropped.

AS PART OF NHTSA RECALL #20V-520, HYUNDAI RECALL #194, I WAS INFORMED THE PART THAT HAS STARTED FIRES, WOULD MAY MERELY BE INSPECTED AND NOT REPLACED. THIS PART SHOULD BE REPLACED SINCE IT IS KNOWN TO START FIRES.

RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE; TOLD TO PARK CAR OUTSIDE AS IT COULD CATCH FINE. TOOK CAR TO DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT REPAIRED. WAS TOLD DIAGNOSTIC SHOW ABS MODULE WAS NOT LEAKING, THEREFORE NO REPAIR NEEDED ALTHOUGH THEY COULDN'T GUARANTEE IT WOULDN'T LEAK IN THE FUTURE. CALLED HYUNDAI CORPORATE (LISTENED TO CAMPAIGN 953) DETAILING THAT AN ELECTRONIC UPDATE WAS INSTALLED WHICH IF THE LEAK OCCURS, THE CAR WOULD BE PLACED IN A MODE THAT WOULD NOT ALLOW IT TO BE DRIVEN FAST AND TO IMMEDIATELY GO TO HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP. I WANT MY CAR REPAIRED AND PART REPLACED. THIS ELECTRONIC UPDATE DOES NOT DO THAT ... IF THE CORPORATION KNOWS THE PART IS FAULTY THEY SHOULD REPLACE ALL, NOT JUST THOSE THAT TEST BAD AT THE TIME OF THE CHECK. WAS GIVEN NO OTHER RECOURSE.

IN LATE SEPTEMBER WE RECEIVED A RECALL NOTIFICATION ("CAMPAIGNE194") FROM THE MANUFACTURER STATING THAT A BREAK FLUID LEAK IN THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM COULD CAUSE AN ELECTRICAL SHORT WITH POTENTIAL FIRE IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. MY WIFE IMMEDIATELY WENT TO THE DEALER, FITZGERALD HYUNDAI ROCKVILLE MD, TO GET IT FIXED. THEY SAID THE FIX WAS NOT READY AND THAT WE WOULD BE CONTACTED. WHEN TOLD THEM THAT WE PLANNED TO DRIVE TO SOUTH FLORIDA (FROM JUST NORTH OF WASHINGTON DC), THEY BRUSHED OFF HER CONCERN WITH A CARELESS ATTITUDE. WE ARE NERVOUS ABOUT DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT ALL AND SEE ON YOUR WEBSITE THAT THE MANUFACTURER IS OBLIGED "TO REMEDY THIS SAFETY RECALL FOR YOUR VEHICLE IN A TIMELY MANNER". WE HAVE RECEIVED NO FOLLOW-UP FROM THEM AND FEEL THAT GIVEN THIS BEGAN IN AUGUST, A "TIMELY MANNER" HAS NOT BEEN MET. IS OUR VEHICLE SAFE TO DRIVE?! WE THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR QUICK RESPONSE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HYUNDAI SANTA FE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING, THE BRAKES LOCKED UP AND STARTED TO SHIFT WITH THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT FLASHING. THE CONTACT CALLED NALLEY HYUNDAI (7909 MALL PKWY, STONECREST, GA 30038) AND INFORMED THE DEALER OF THE FAILURE AND SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT. THE VIN WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V520000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 92,225.

2015 HYUNDAI SANTA FEE I BOUGHT NEW, TURBO SPORT. AT 26,750 MILES THE DISC PADS ON ALL 4 WHEELS FELL OFF THE STEEL BACKING PLATES. THE PADS IN THE FRONT WERE PAPER THIN AND THE BACK WERE SOMEWHAT BETTER. THE "SQUEALERS" THAT WARN YOU OF PAD THICKNESS NEVER MADE A SOUND. DANGEROUS SITUATION. I'M A 50 YEAR SERVICE MECHANICS, NEVER SAW THIS BEFORE. THE PADS COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT WITH LACK OF STOPPING. I'M NOT ASKING FOR MONEY BACK FROM THEM, WARNING OWNERS NOT TO EXPECT THE 50K MILEAGE STANDARD FOR HYUNDAI VEHICLES. I CALLED THEM AT HEADQUARTERS TO WARN THEM OF THIS SITUATION. COULD HAVE CAUSED GRAND MOTHER AND CHILD SOME SERIOUS OUT COME AS THAT IS THE ONLY USE FOR THIS VEHICLE. BEWARE

I FOUND ABS ALARM MESSAGE ON DASHBOARD. WHEN I VISITED LOCAL DEALER SHOP, IT IS PROBLEM ON ABS MODULE. BUT I HEARD 2015 HYUNDAI SANTA FE HAS RECALL FOR ABS MODULE. BUT DEALER SHOP TOLD ME MU CAR IS NOT INCLUDED IN RECALL.I JUST WONDER WHY MY CAR IS NOT AVAILABLE RECALL. IT IS SAME KIND OF CAR. I WOULD LIKE THEY INVESTIGATE MY CAR IS AVAILABLR RECALL.
