Filing a complaint against hyundai northeast auto outlet at 3301 grant av reporting the hyundai service dept. I own a 2001 hyundai santa fe. I took my car to service dept.,for the 34 pt. Checkup on 11/26/07. Also,decided to get car inspected at the same time. They replaced the crankshft sensor. Was told to drive my car at least 150 miles so that they can reset the monitors with the engine light on. This cost me $257.00 now,visit #2- on 1/03/08 all of a sudden they find 3 new problems. They replaced a valve cannister,purge valve,gas cap. They state they also cleared the codes to pass inspection. But, again i had to drive my car another 50+ miles again so that they could reset the monitors. Engine light was off, which was a good sign. This cost me $508.00. However, the next morning,i started up the car. It started very rough and felt like it was ready to stall out on me. Engine light came back on also. Visit #3- on, 1/8/08 took car back again,explained what happened. They said to leave it overnight. The next day, service manager calls me at work. She tells me that their was a #4 cylinder misfire code, needed a fuel injector,spark plugs, plug wires,timing belt, serpentine belt,belt tensioner,oill change and fuel injector service. Estimated at least $1200.00. This was very upsetting. I declined all work and file a customer complaint against them. My car was running fine when i took it the first time. This is an unfair practice by these people and they need to get reported. Perhaps, their mechanic triggered something on the codes to create these problems all of a sudden. I need your help or some advise on how to further pursue this problem. Thank you for your cooperation. *tr

The engine light kept coming on causing a down shifting after a banging in the transmission. The dealer could not find anything. It was a sensor that should be covered under the running gear. Without it the car does not drive. That is part of the running gear. I should not have to pay 231.00. If i can not drive the car due to the transmission that should be considered as part of the running gear. *jb

I have had ball joints on my 2001 santa fe replaced three times since 5/03. The first was 5/03 at 44k and the dealer replaced covered under warranty, the second was 9/04 at 80k no longer under warranty had a private mechanic complete, and the third was 3/05 at 100k again by a private mechanic. I have called hyundai 3 times with no response to my inquiries.

My santa fe lx-awd rear differential which also could be defined as rear axle was totally failed and all the differential fluid is leaking and the whole thing need to be replace. My car is 87k mile while hyundai services dealer stated that this part is covered under the 5/60k bumper to bumper warranty. I still believed that this part should be covered under the power train warranty; which it is 10/100k miles. When i go into most websites to shop for this part they mostly related to the power train parts. The dealer expected me to pay nearly $2400 for just this part to be fix. This is not included labor yet. There is no way for me to afford to pay for this part and of course not to mention about labor....I seriously feel that this part should be covered under the power train 10/100k warranty instead of 6/60k warranty. Since this is part of a transmission turning the transaxle to the rear because of my car is awd! I don't know what to say but the part is ridiculously expensive for anyone to afford to pay another $3k to fix it. I feel to point that i rather save my $3k right now and buy a use accord/camry to drive. I am writing this complaint here is to ask nhtsa to help me verify the condition of the rear differential/rear axle on my 2001 hyundai santa fe lx awd to see if the part should be covered under bumper to bumper or under power train. As you can see your part selection is also stated power train: rear differential unit. I was hoping for a recall then that would be great or check at the price point of the part. It is too expensive ($2400) just this part alone. *nm

My hyundai sata fe, 2001, was parked and unattended when the car ignited into flames. A witness saw the fire begin in the hood of the car. According to the fire department incident report, there was no crime or arson. Instead it clearly says that the cause of ignition was accidental, and the equipment or heat source failed. It was explained to me that there was a malfunction in the engine due to manufacturer. This was the responsibility of hyundai. Hyundai did not want to take responsibility to for the malfunction in the engine. Geico's claim department notified me that my car was declared a total loss. The investigator clearly stated that this accident was not due to my actions. They also said that i was lucky that i was not in the car or i could have been in a serious accident or burned in the fire. Hyundai did not want to help me with this matter. I still have a loan out on the car. My car was still under 60,000 miles and i had full warranty. Geico has settled for a small amount of money. All i wanted was another car. I would have been happy with a used car to replace the car which went up in flames due to hyundai's poor manufacturing. Damage resulting i have been unfortunate because i was without a car for a long period of time. During that time, i was unable to commute back and forth to work. I am paying insurance for the car, even though geico considered the car a total loss. All i want is a replacement of my car. *ak

This vehicle is still under warranty. The weather stripping on the drivers side door has a 4" long piece torn out of it at mid door level and the door frame has an abrasion approximately 6" long at mid door level. I took the vehicle to the dealership and was told that the drivers side seat belt caused the abrasion and the torn weather stripping. I was told that the cost to replace the weather stripping would be $98.00. I believe that the seat belt retractor is defective, in that it does not fully retract into the seat belt holder after the drivers seat belt is disengaged. *la

The vehicle felt as though it was jumping out of gears, the dealer replaced a module. *jb
