Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2013-2017 Santa Fe and Santa Fe Sport vehicles. In the affected vehicles, the secondary hood latch actuating cable may corrode and bind, causing the secondary hood latch to remain in the unlatched position when the hood is closed.
If the hood is not securely closed or the primary latch is inadvertently released and the secondary latch is not engaged, the hood could unexpectedly open while driving, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will replace the secondary latch cable, free of charge. The recall began on August 4, 2017. Owner's may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-671-3059. Hyundai's number for the recall is 163.

Tires, pressure monitoring and regulating systemsMar 6, 2017
Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2017 Santa Fe Sport vehicles. The affected vehicles have a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that may not have been set in the correct mode during vehicle assembly, and therefore will not provide an appropriate warning in the event of an underinflated tire. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 138, "Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems."
An underinflated inflated tire can increase the risk of a crash.
Hyundai will notify owners, and dealers will replace the TPMS sensors, free of charge. The recall began March 31, 2017. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-800-633-5151. Hyundai's number for the recall is 159.

Electrical system, wiringNov 21, 2016
Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 Tucson vehicles manufactured May 19, 2015, to November 14, 2016, and 2017 Santa Fe vehicles manufactured November 28, 2015, to November 14, 2016. The affected vehicles may be equipped with an accessory trailer hitch wiring harness that, due to a malfunction of the tow hitch module, may result, in the trailer brake lights being constantly illuminated. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, " Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
If the trailer brake lights stay illuminated while being used, other drivers may be confused, increasing the risk of a crash.

Seat belts, front, warning light/devicesMar 10, 2016
Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 Santa Fe vehicles manufactured September 1, 2015 to February 12, 2016. In the affected vehicles, the wires in the front seat belt buckle harnesses may be damaged by the seat's height adjuster mechanism, resulting in a failure to provide an audible warning when front seat occupants do not fasten their seat belts. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection."
Without a warning to remind the front seat occupants that their seat belts are not buckled, they may forget to buckle their seat belt, increasing their risk of injury in the event of a crash.

The recall began on April 27, 2016. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-800-633-5151. Hyundai's number for this recall is 141.

MY CAR JUST TURNED OFF. WHILE I WAS DRIVING UNDER 15 MILES, IT TURNED OFF, THIS HAS HAPPENED 3!TIMES SINCE I GOT THE CAR. THE SEATBELT IN THE 2ND ROW BEHIND THE PASSENGER SEAT SOMETIMES DOESN'T WANT TO LOCK. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THEY WEREN'T ABLE TO RECREATE THE PROBLEMS SO THERE'S NOTHING THAT THEY COULD DO ABOUT IT. I SPOKE TO THEIR CORPORATE OFFICE AND SENT EMAILS AND NO ONE CAN FIX THE ISSUES.

WHILE I AM DRIVING AND MY CAR IS CHANGING GEARS, IT DOES FINE UNTIL ITS IN FOURTH GEAR. THE RPM WILL GO TO ABOUT 2,800 UNTIL IT CHANGES TO FIFTH GEAR. ONVE ITS IN 5TH GEAR THE RPM WILL GO INTO A "NEUTRAL" STATE AND REV FROM 4,700 RPM TO 5,700 WITHOUT ANY ACCELERATION. THIS HAPPENS WHEN ACCELERATING UP A FREEWAY ENTRANCE . I HAVE BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP 3X NOW AND ALL THEY KEEP SAYING IS THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS AN UPDATE. AND THE ADAPTIVE VALUES NEED TO BE RE- LEARNED. I HAVE NOW HAD MY TRANSMISSION FLUID FILLED ONCE AND THEN I PAID TO GET A TRANNY FLUSH. AND ADADPTIVE VALUES RESET TWICE. NOTHING HAS CHANGED. I HAVE 38,000 MILES AND THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT THE LAST 15,000 MILES.

CAR COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING AT A SLOW SPEED TURNING RIGHT FROM A STOP SIGN, WAS LUCKY TO BE ABLE TO PULL OVER TO SIDE OF ROAD. ALL ELECTRICAL/COMPUTER SHUT DOWN, ENGINE CUT OFF. RESTARTED BUT ENGINE SPUTTERS, FEELS LIKE IT IS TRYING TO SHIFT GEARS WHILE STILL IN PARK. IT WAS A VERY UNSAFE SITUATION. WAS NOT ABLE TO GET STARTED TO DRIVE HOME. ONE WEEK EARLIER I NOTICED THE COMPUTER ACTING UP WHEN I FIRST STARTED UP, BUT RESTATED AND DROVE ANYWAY (NO PROBLEM THAT TIME WHILE DRIVING).

I PARKED MY CAR PARALLEL TO THE CURB ON A CITY STREET. I MOVED THE SHIFTER FROM "DRIVE" TO "PARK". I DID NOT TURN OFF THE ENGINE BECAUSE I WAS ONLY GOING TO GET OUT FOR A FEW SECONDS TO OPEN THE DOOR BEHIND ME TO LET SOME SENIOR CITIZENS TO GET IN THE CAR. I RELEASED MY SEAT BELT BUCKLE AND PROCEED TO OPEN THE DRIVER-SIDE CAR DOOR. AS SOON AS MY FEET WERE ON THE GROUND AND MY BODY WAS OUTSIDE OF THE CAR, THE CAR STARTED TO MOVE IN REVERSE DIRECTION. THE CAR WAS MOVING FAIRLY QUICKLY BECAUSE WITHIN A SPLIT SECOND, I WAS KNOCKED TO THE GROUND BY THE CAR DOOR WITH THE LEFT FRONT WHEEL ON TOP OF MY LEFT FOOT. THE WHEEL PROCEEDED TO ROLL OVER MY LEFT ANKLE, LEG, THIGH, HIP, ABDOMEN, CHEST, AND FINALLY MY RIGHT UPPER ARM AND SHOULDER JOINT. THE CAR CONTINUED TO TRAVEL IN REVERSE BY JUMPING THE CURB ONTO THE SIDE WALK AND FINALLY STOPPED BY HEAVY BUSHES IN FRONT OF A BUILDING. UPON INSPECTION, THE SHIFTER HAD SLIPPED INTO THE "REVERSE" POSITION. BASED ON THE GRADIENT OF THE ROAD SERVICE WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING, THE REMOVAL OF MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE WOULD HAVE IMMEDIATELY ALLOWED THE CAR TO MOVE BACKWARD HAD THE SHIFTER WAS IN REVERSE WHICH WOULD MAKE EXITING MY WHOLE BODY OUT OF THE CAR WITHOUT NOTICING CAR MOVEMENT VERY UNLIKELY IF NOT IMPOSSIBLE, PARTICULARLY FOR A 72 YEAR OLD MALE WHO IS RECOVERING FROM AN OPEN HEART SURGERY AND TWO BRAIN SURGERIES. THE SHIFTING MECHANISM AND THE ASSOCIATED CONTROL MUST BE FAULTY RESULTING IN THE "FALSE PARK" POSITION.

STICKY STEERING WHEEL WHEN TRAVELING ON STRAIGHT ROADWAYS AND HIGHWAYS ABOVE 40 MPH. I NOTICED A SLIGHT STICK TO THE STEERING WHEEL WHILE TRAVELING ON THE FREEWAY OR ON A STRAIGHT ROAD ABOVE 40 MPH. THIS PROBLEM STARTED AT 15,000 MILES. THE STEERING WHEEL TENDS TO STICK WHEN TRYING TO TRACK STRAIGHT WHICH CAUSES ME TO CONSISTENTLY SWERVE WHILE TRYING TO CORRECT. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY WERE ABLE TO IDENTIFY THE ISSUE AS A BAD MDPS UNIT (STEERING COLUMN SHAFT ASSEMBLY) PART#56310-2W840. WHILE AT THE SHOP, I DECIDED TO DO SOME RESEARCH ON MY OWN AND FOUND THAT THIS UNIT HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED IN OTHER MAKES AND MODELS AS A BAD UNIT DUE TO A RUBBER COUPLER INSIDE THE MDPS AND HYUNDAI HAS EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THESE PARTS. I BELIEVE THAT THERE SHOULD BE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THIS PART BEYOND THE FACTORY WARRANTY FOR THE 2017 HYUNDAI SANTA FE. WE HAVE OWNED THIS CAR FOR 1 YEAR 11 MOS AND IT CURRENTLY HAS 16261 MILES. NOTES FROM DEALERSHIP TECH: " THE STEERING WAS STICKING. THE COLUMN WAS AT FAULT INTERNAL FAILURE. I WAS UNABLE TO ISOLATE WHAT PART OF THE MOTOR DRIVEN STEERING UNIT WAS THE ROOT CUASE OF THE STICKING. ALL PARTS TESTED GOOD BUT I STILL HAD THE ISSUE. I PERFORMED A STEERING WHEEL CALIBRATION AND RESET THE STEERING FEEL ZERO. I REDROVE THE CAR AND NOTED AFTER DRIVING ON A STRAIGHT LEVEL ROAD AND 40-60 MPH SPEEDS THAT WHEN I MOVED THE STEERING LEFT OR RIGHT THAT THERE WAS A NOTICABLE STICKING. BEFORE THE STEERING FELT LIKE IT HAD ASSIST. I REPLACED THE MDPS COMPLETE UNIT RESET THE TOW VARIANT CODED AND DROVE THE CAR AGAIN"

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT SPEEDS OVER 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE DRIFTS TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT. I HAVE TO OVER CORRECT THE STEERING AND FORCE THE VEHICLE TO STAY STRAIGHT. THE DEALER PERFORMED AN ALIGNMENT. HOWEVER; IT DID NOT CORRECT THE ISSUE. I'M AFRAID FOR OUR SAFETY.

WHILE DRIVING HIGHWAY SPEED, STEERING WHEEL FEELS LIKE IT GETS STUCK WHILE TRYING TO MAINTAIN STEERING. AS YOU TURN THE STEERING WHEEL LEFT TO RIGHT AND RIGHT TO LEFT TRYING TO MAINTAIN LANE IT FEELS LIKE THE STEERING WHEEL CATCHES EACH TIME YOU SLIGHTLY TURN THE STEERING WHEEL AND CAUSES YOU TO OVER CORRECT MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN LANE. FEEL IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE, ESPECIALLY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES WHERE I OVERCORRECTED AND THE CAR VEERED OUT OF ITS LANE. VEHICLE HAS BEEN TAKEN TO DEALER TWICE SO FAR AND THEY SAY THEY CAN'T RECREATE THE SITUATION, EVEN THOUGH I DROVE THE CAR WITH SERVICE PERSON IN IT AND THE "STICKING" OCCURRED WHILE I DROVE IT.
