2024 Hyundai Santa FE complaints

The failure occurred in the sidewalls of the two factory‑supplied all‑season tires on the passenger‑side (front and rear) of my 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe. Both tires exhibit pronounced bulges on the outer sidewall of the front passenger tire. Tire size is 255/45 R20 105V M+S The rear OEM tire was replaced on February 10, 2025 and front OEM tire (with DOT codes visible) remain mounted on the vehicle, but I must replace it to keep the vehicle operational. I noticed the bulging of the second tire today, July 29, 2025. Sidewall bulges indicate internal cord separation. A sudden loss of air pressure or blowout—especially at highway speeds—could result in rapid vehicle instability, loss of control, and a potentially serious crash, endangering occupants and other road users. No, the problem has yet to be inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance or others. However there is mounting conserns and simular reports of the same problem occurring with other owners of 2024 Hyundai SantaFes with the same OEM tire. No warning lamps, messages or other symptons prior to the problem occuring. There has been no off‑road use, curb impacts, overloading, or manufacturing advisories at the time of discovery. My best assessment is a potential manufacturing or design defect in the OEM tire sidewall construction causing premature internal separation under normal use.

I was driving and the car started to loose power and then the engine light came on and the car would not go. Everything happened at one time. The wrecker took the car to the dealer and the dealer confirmed the transmission went out. It is very dangerous for a new car to have the transmission fail while driving. This is a new car. The transmission failed and it is available for inspection at the dealer. The car is currently at the dealer and I am waiting to find out how long it will take to get a new power train.

I tried to open the doors of my locked vehicle with the key fob and there was no response. I tried several times and nothing happened. I called AAA and they opened the door with my valet key and was able to pop the trunk. He checked the battery and it was working fine. He then noticed that the wire connecting the battery to the fuse box has melted at the point of contract with the fuse box and actually melted part of the plastic fuse box. There was nothing he could do, so I had to have the car towed to the dealer. I was lucky that the total meltdown of the electrical system did not occur when I was driving or I would not have been able to see any of the controls on the inside of the auto and not be able to use the gear shift to put the car in park.

I was driving on the freeway at 70MPH it was dusk. The traffic was light and I was exiting the freeway. Two lanes exit and then split each direction. There is a car next to me but is not coming into my lane and nobody in front of me. Suddenly a collision alarm starts going off the vehicle brakes and the emergency steering notification lights up on the dash and the vehicle swerves to the left almost hitting the median. After this occurred the transmission started having issues at speeds under 15mph with shifting. It would rev up to about 3500rpms then lunge.

Forward attention assist keeps going off. For no reason. Eyes are on the road and head is forward

The glass on the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe seems to be incredibly unsafe. 2 weeks after purchasing the vehicle, while driving on [XXX], something kicked up into the windshield and cracked it. The crack was about 12 inches long. Overnight, the crack doubled in length. The replacement glass that was ordered to Safelite was broken upon delivery. While waiting for a new windshield, something else hit the windshield on the interstate and there was another chip. 2 weeks after my windshield was finally replaced, I found that the passenger front window was cracked in the top corner and had no idea why. Within 2 days, the window was cracked all the way from the top to the bottom. This weekend, something hit the windshield on the interstate again, and the windshield is once again cracked/chipped. I have owned 11 cars in 16 years and none of them have ever had windshield damage, despite spending my entire driving life in the same area. Now, a new car that I purchased for the purpose of avoiding maintenance costs has had 3 cracked/broken windows in 12 months, and I've spent $1000 on glass and will now have to spend another $100-$500 more to fix this one. Hyundai warranty does not cover it. Glass coverage is not an option for insurance in North Carolina. I believe that the glass on newer Hyundai vehicles is very cheap, defective, and unsafe.

The Adaptive Cruise control cannot be used while wearing certain sunglasses. The car has a Driver Awareness Warning that is supposed to warn the driver if eyes are not on the road. It does not work with certain glasses. While driving at interstate speeds, I engaged the Adaptive Cruise control only to have it shut off and quickly slow down. After fumbling with different glasses while driving, I found a pair that will work with the Adaptive Cruise control. In the display, there is a toggle to turn off the Driver Awareness option, but as soon as you turn on the Adaptive Cruise, the Driver Awareness turns on again. If the Driver Awareness function cannot be turned off it is a safety issue. My favorite driving glasses cannot be used and I think this issue will cause accidents with the quick slowing on the highway. There should be a way to turn off the Driver awareness so I can use the adaptive cruise with my sunglasses.

This truck has repeatedly gone in for service over 6 times for multiple issues. The worst issue which they cannot fix is the vehicle going into limp mode while driving . Loosing all acceleration then racing on its own . This is a very dangerous problem when on the highway.hyundai service keeps telling me that the diagnostic is not showing a problem. This can be caused due to many things including transmission electrical or computer problems. I have reported to the office of consumer affairs and they claim hyundai dealership in myrtle beach has not responded to them. meanwhile i am driving in a very scary situation not knowing when this will occur. This happens at random times with no warning. This has happened at least 10 times in the last few months.

Vehicle has about 4k miles. Received “transmission system error, check transmission oil immediately”. The vehicle barely drives. Has a hard time changing gears. Hyundai says there are no recalls and are not being helpful in getting help. They say everything is fine but it is clearly not working. Brand new vehicle and cannot get it fixed.

I’m writing to report a recurring issue with the Forward Attention Warning (FAW) system in my 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe. The system frequently triggers warnings even when I am fully attentive and driving safely. These alerts are not only distracting, but they also reduce my confidence in the vehicle’s safety systems overall. I have reviewed the settings and attempted to adjust or disable the FAW feature, but it either cannot be turned off entirely or continues to act erratically despite adjustments. I’ve also verified that the cabin camera is clean and unobstructed.

The contact owns a 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe. The contact stated that while the vehicle was idling at the dealer, the transmission became inoperable. There was an unknown warning light illuminated. Additionally, the contact stated that there was a hole in the front driver's seat. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, but the dealer declined to service the vehicle or honor the service plan. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 2,600.

The Forward Attention Warning device located on the steering column (camera) cannot be disengaged. This device does not allow me to wear dark or polarized sunglasses, which I need since I have eye issues. This is a safety issue for me and others, especially since I am [XXX] [XXX] and there are times when the visor doesn't cover the sun. You can 'disengage' it in the Driver Assistance settings but it does not stop the warnings nor does it stop it from disengaging your cruise control. If you look to the side of the vehicle, look up to pull the visor down, or wear polarized or dark sunglasses, it will also shut off your cruise control. I have taken the vehicle in to the Gainesville GA Hyundai and told them about this issue but they have said that there is no fix for this. BTW -- there are a bunch of posts on Reddit about this issue. This problem isn't a failure of the system, it is a design flaw. I noticed it on the day I bought the vehicle. Now, it is an annoyance to the point that I am looking at buying a new vehicle. I have only had the vehicle a year....not happy.

Since buying this vehicle I have had problems with shaking while braking… specifically while going at a higher speed downhills. At 3000 miles I took it in and they shaved down my rotors and stated it would need to be replaced if it didn’t fix it. The problem continued, when I would bring it to the dealership they would deny being able to replicate the problem. Upon searching on Reddit I saw that others are having problems with their rotors on their Santa Fe prematurely needing replacement. This has been a problem since I bought the car and I feel like it’s a significant safety problem that Hyundai will not cover under warranty.

Upon first start up of the day, dashboard notification states “Transmission system error! Check transmission oil immediately”, vehicle will not accelerate over 10mph with this error. After turning vehicle off, error is gone and vehicle operates as normal. Dealership is aware of this notification but states they could not duplicate it & found no issues.

The forward attention camera won’t turn off even when selected off in settings… I’m unable to drive comfortably with one hand at 12 o clock without constant beeps and warnings. its MADDENING.

Transmission. Less than 6 months of buying the vehicle, Hyundai replaced the transmission and now I’m still having problems..it revved up to 2.3 rpms but didn’t change gears then jerks into gear..not everyday but atleast once a week. I’m waiting now on the dealership to look at my car now..but they’re dragging their feet.

This is for the Forward Attention Warning…..this feature is misleading. I can be looking straight at the road and it will beep at me. We need a way to turn it completely off. This alone causes me to look at the camera instead of the road.

I purchased a brand new 2024 santa fe xrt back in March of 2024. And around December my front end started shaking and I had bad vibrations in my front in when I was finally able to get it into the hyundai dealership in January they told me it was my front 2 rotors where warped my vehicle only has 13k miles and shouldn't have rotor issuses. Even though it was covered under warranty all the dealership did was resurface the rotors and said the vibration is gone. They also said if it does it again just to bring it back but a new vehicle shouldn't have warped rotor issues with less than 15k miles.

The driver assist warning/dinging coffee cup is a distraction while driving. It can ding up to every 4 minutes. This is a feature that should be able to be turned off.

The transmission is the problem that caused the vehicle to downshift while driving and resulted is a sudden jerk and slowdown in speed. My safety was at risk as the car slowed down suddenly and almost caused the vehicle behind me to rear end my vehicle. But luckily the other driver was able to stop. I previously brought the vehicle to Hyundai service (12/12/24) and they indicated that they couldn’t replicate the problem and there was no situation. The vehicle will be brought to the aforementioned service center again to check the situation (1/07/25). There were no warning the first time it happened, as mentioned earlier and after the second incident the car displayed the message that occurred the first time again which I have attached.

When I first start my car for the day, I get an error message, which says transmission error get transmission checked immediately. I’m unable to put my car into gear and when I try to go forward the transmission acts as if insufficient transmission fluid and does not accelerate properly and go into gear. I went to a Hyundai dealer in October 2024!to get the car serviced. The Hyundai dealer flushed the transmission system For a while I no longer got the transmission error message on the dash. A few weeks later I had the transmission error again and the car would not go into gear. I took the car in for a second time to be serviced by Hyundai dealer They said that they reset the software. About a week later I got the transmission error message again, along with the difficulty of engage in the transmission. The workaround I had for this was to turn the car off and turn it back on again and that would get rid of the transmission error message until the next day. I plan to take my car in to a Hyundai dealer this week and report to them that I’ve been having this transmission error message almost daily for the last week. This problem makes the car feel unreliable, and it is a potential safety risk to not be able to accelerate and change gear when operating the vehicle. The car also lurches foreard slightly after parking and turning off thr ignition.

On December4th 2024 my car rolled forward into a barrier post. I stopped to get air in my tires and the Parking Allert went off as I got near the barrier post. I then parked my car. I left my car running and driver door partially opened. I dropped the valve cap between the spokes of the last tire being filled. So, I got into the car and backed up about three feet to get the cap. Parked the car got out and it rolled forward into the barrier post. I was completely out of the car but just by my driver door. I tried to get back in but it was too quick. Subsequently, I drove to work to let my supervisor know i would need time to go to the dealership. I was concerned air bags would deploy since that didnt happen. Also because the car didnt stop on its own felt the integrity of systems were questionable. So, I repeated the steps at work like the incident. Except, I stayed in the car. The car beeped and the dash said Shift to P when my door was open and placing in drive and reverse. I NEVER got any indications of such when the car hit the barrier. I found the two DTC's that showed on my Hyundai App were related to DTC U110387 and U110382. I had 99 miles on the car having purchased it with 15 miles on it. The original date of these DTCs is Aug 27th, 2024, with a last reported Aug 30, 2024. I see recalls 24V529000 and 24V246000. I don't know if they are related. but this has to be addressed. My car is at the dealership being repaired and my insurance rate will no doubt go up and the va

THE CRUISE CONTROL USES A CAMERA , THE IS SUPPOSED TO WATCH YOUR EYES , TO MAKE SURE YOU ARE WATCHING THE ROAD . UNFORTUNATELY , IF YOU ARE WEARING GLASSES ( WHICH I MUST WHEN I AM DRIVING ) THE LIGHT REFLECTING OFF THEM MAKES THE UNIT THINK I AM NOT WATCHING THE ROAD . FOR BACKROUND, I WAS A HIGHWAY PATROL OFFIGER FOR 30 YEARS . I AM VERY ATTENTIVE TO THE ROAD AHEAD OF ME . IT SEEMS HYUNDAI KNOWS OF THIS PROBLEM , WHICH SUDDENLY DISENGAGES THE CRUISE CONTROL , CAUSING RAPID DECELERATION OF THE VEHICLE . AT HIGHWAY SPEED , THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS . IT HAS BEEN NOTED ON MANY FORUMS , AND MY DEALER KNOWS ABOUT THE PROBLEM , BUT THERE IS NO WAY TO DISCONNECT THE CAMERA FROM THE SYSTEM . THIS IS REALLY AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN .

The contact owns a 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe. The contact received a notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V529000 (Power Train) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The local dealer was contacted. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. VIN tool confirms parts not available.

My vehicle was in for repairs at both a collision shop and a dealership following a minor accident. When I got the vehicle back, I found that the seat controls were not working, preventing me from moving the seat backward or forward. During a test drive, the car lost power despite the gas pedal being fully pressed; it wouldn't accelerate and then suddenly jerked forward. This could have caused an accident if I had been on a busy highway. Further testing revealed an abnormal noise at 1500 RPM in multiple gears. The vehicle has been towed back to the dealership, but there's no word yet on when it will be fixed. Hyundai has been contacted multiple times, as the car has been awaiting parts and undergoing repairs for over four months. They don't seem to be taking these safety issues seriously nor helpful in resolving the issue.

This vehicle has a Driver Attention Alert System which track driver's eye and head movement to determine driver attention levels. This system can be disabled outside of using Cruise Control through the setup menu. However, when in Cruise Control, this system CANNOT be disabled. Unfortunately, if you're wearing sun glasses the system declares the driver is inattentive and produces a distracting aural and visual warning. If no action is taken the vehicle will automatically come to a stop, even on the freeway! This option is a driver distraction and does not allow the driver to wear sunglasses increasing the risk of motor vehicle accidents. Several customer have complained to Hyundai about this system. there needs to be driver-selectable option to enable/disable, even in Cruise Control mode.

I have owned my vehicle since July 29th 2024 and have now replaced two windshields on my car. It has less than 6000 miles on it. I have looked online and many other people have had the same issues with Hyundai windshields. Something is not right with the glass itself, these tiny rocks should not be basically shattering my windshield while I’m driving.

After car is idle, when pressing the gas, the car instantly stops as if you have slammed on the break, feeling like you have driven into a brick wall. The intensity of the stop causes you to jerk aggressively in your seat. This has happened on more than one occasion. Without a seatbelt it would cause injury as well as the possibility of causing an accident with other vehicles. When this happens, there were no warning lights or messages shown to indicate an issue. The vehicle is currently at the dealership as of 9/20/2024, they are trying to replicate the issue however it has been more than 2 weeks, and they have not found a resolution. They have run diagnostics tests and there was nothing that indicated the issue with the vehicle. As of today, 10/9/2024, the issue has not been resolved and the vehicle remains in the dealers possession.

The issue I have is related to the transmission and exactly what is outlined in the Hyundai Santa Fe recall 236. My car was not included in that recall though. But the problem is exactly the same.

The vehicle has a digital instrument panel. Today the instrumental panel started flickering, sometimes all warning lights will flash, and then the panel will go completely black/blank while driving. Sometimes a red "NO SIGNAL" warning will flash across the screen. When this happens, there's no speedometer, engine temperature, or any information about the vehicle. This vehicle is 1-month old and has about 1300 miles.

The media screen console part of my 2024 Santa Fe has been glitching since July. Dealer has already looked at it and said there’s nothing to fix… now the screen flickers AND the audio glitches over and over the same few seconds.. then turn the car OFF and the audio stays playing over and over. Cannot turn off the media console or adjust volume. Screen goes out when using backup camera. I mostly have videos of these issues as you can’t tell in photos what’s wrong.

At approximately 1500 miles on the odometer, I started to receive a warning roughly one out of every 3 times I started my 2024 HYUNDAI SANTA FE. The warning would flash red and read "Transmission System Error!, Check transmission oil immediately" and would refuse to move out of first gear, revving to approximately 5000 RPMs. The onboard vehicle diagnostic system reads all systems NORMAL when performed and this error requires a vehicle restart to clear.

While the car was in park, we used the auto start feature to get the A/C going as we walked to the car. We heard a loud popping sound then shut the car off. My husband looked under the hood to look around for what could have made the noise and asked me to start the car. When I did, the car started moving forward on it's own with my husband standing in front of it and our 3 kids in the car to witness, which was scary but fortunately nobody was hurt and we were parking and not in traffic. I was able to use the brakes to get it to stop moving. We drove it about a mile and when attempting to put it in park, it prompted me to use the parking break because the Park function wasn't available. When I attempted to put it in drive, it flashed through all of the gears before saying, "Shift gear malfunction" then "Service Immediately." I used the parking break and was able to turn the car off after a few attempts of it going into accessory mode. This was 30 days after purchasing the car brand new with 10 miles on it leaving the lot. We found the safety recall posted online on July 8th, but were not informed by the dealership.The dealership didn't have a loaner to provide, so we had to pay out of pocket for a rental car for 7 weeks before they finally provided a loaner for the final week before it was repaired 60 days later. We were told there was no ETA on when the parts would be received, but we had to call the Service Advisor or go in person because they were not responsive by phone or

The digital gage cluster went black on my 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe Calligraphy (AWD) while I was driving on September 5, 2024. There were no prior warnings or indicators to alert me that anything was going to fail/not operate properly. I was entering a school zone and could not determine what speed I was traveling at to ensure that I was not moving too fast and endangering children, as well as walking parents; I pulled over and activated my Heads-Up-Display (HUD) to see if I could utilize it to safely continue my journey. I was able to use the HUD to know my speed. I initially had the HUD turned off because my daughter, who is a new driver, said that it was distracting to her. This occurred first yesterday. I thought that it may have been due to my system conducting a software update, but the issue appears to be intermittent. It sometimes comes back on, but it only remains on for no more than 10-15 minutes before going black again. Since it is a new vehicle and under warranty, I scheduled an appointment with the local Hyundai dealership the same night the issue first occurred to have the problem evaluated. When I arrived the next morning I was told that it would take about two (2) weeks for it to be diagnosed!?! I then went to a friend, who is a certified mechanic specializing in electronics, to take a quick assessment. She didn't discover anything during her observation, but decided to check online to see if there were any reports of this issue occurring prior to my incident. S

On Wednesday, August 28, 2024, I was driving southbound on Interstate 95 in Florida at 72 miles per hour in the left lane. As I approached my exit, I attempted to switch to the middle lane when, suddenly, the car stalled. Pressing the gas pedal had no effect, and the car rapidly lost speed. Fortunately, the drivers around me, who were all traveling at speeds exceeding 70 miles per hour, slowed down, allowing me to safely pull over onto the shoulder of the highway. The following morning, I contacted the dealer and drove the car in for inspection. I was shocked to learn that the car, which is a brand-new lease with only 1,500 miles and less than two months old, requires a new transmission. After this terrifying experience, I no longer feel safe driving this vehicle, even after the transmission is replaced. This is my first Hyundai, and in 25 years of leasing cars, ranging from Honda to Maserati, I have never encountered an issue like this. The whole point of leasing a car is to avoid situations like this one. This is completely unacceptable.

Car purchase on [XXX] Within the first week, the car exhibited alarming signs of overheating. The hood was scorching, and heat emanated from the vehicle's exterior, all after just 30 minutes of driving. This was a matter of immediate concern. I took the car to Jim Ellis Hyundai on June 14, 2024. I reported that the car was running hot, the engine was making noise, and heat was coming from it. I also told them that after shutting off the vehicle, the fan blew for another 35 minutes to cool down the car. On July 12, 2024, I was forced to return the car to Jim Ellis due to the same persistent issue. This time, the car was overheating and leaking water under the dashboard. Listed below are all the problems I have had with this vehicle since I purchased The car was reported running hot, and the front hood was hot to touch after driving for 30 minutes. There was a loud noise from the car Noise from car 35 minutes after car has been shut off. I thought I was the fan trying to cool down the vehicle. Water is leaking from under the dashboard by the accelerator pedal. Another issue reported on 8/21/2024 to Potemkin Hyundai The car stops automatically while backing up. Nothing behind me. The car shuts off while switching to reverse or drive. Car stopping while backing up The vehicle rolls backward when shut off. Car shaking vigorously trying to backup out of my driveway.

The contact owns a 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe. The contact stated that on several occasions while driving at various speeds, the vehicle lost motive power and failed to accelerate as intended. Additionally, the message "Transmission System Check" was displayed, and the check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was towed to a dealer; however, the failure was not able to be replicated. The failure persisted. The vehicle was taken to another dealer where it was diagnosed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired but the failure persisted. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 3,800.

I bought my car in 2024 and my monitor keeps glitching out. One month into buying the car, the monitor began glitching out, affecting my gps.These problems began in March. I took it to service in May, and they said they had it fixed. However, after a little bit, the same monitor problems came back. There were multiple times where my monitor went completely blank when I was driving far, leaving me shocked and scared. The monitor also went completely blank when I was reversing, almost leading to an accident because of this car's failure. I contacted service again, and they said that I would have to wait a month for the car to be looked at. But I don't want to wait this long, because I am not comfortable with this car anymore and am scared that something might happen because of the monitor glitches.

Involved in a car accident 4/24 going 60 mph, driver cut over and made contact near driver side door, causing us to also slam into a concrete wall on passenger door. After 3 months and up to 29k in damages, insurance declared our car a total loss on 7/23/24. On 7/25/24 the recall was released. No airbags deployed but I had 2 airbag safety codes on my phone (after accident) I didn’t have the car for. 4/11 and on. POA was signed on 7/24/24 releasing car to at fault party’s insurance. Hyundai said they can’t do any investigation on the car to determine if it was a fault. Collision site and dealership was surprised airbags did not deploy. The final damage reported was the inner most pillar that was “last line of defense, cannot be repaired must be replaced” per collision site, had a crack all the way down. I was 30 weeks pregnant and now dealing with ongoing back issues and my toddler was in her car seat. Going that speed with that much damage and hit on both sides should have deployed airbags. Also interesting timing our car was totaled 2 days before official recall. All seatbelts in car “deployed” but side airbags did not. No airbags did

Transmission failure. Problem confirmed by dealership on 7/22. Problem arose on 7/20 with car jumping forward abrublty and started making a clicking noise and hesitating. Did not learn about recall until I logged into my insurance company website to pay my insurance and it listed a recall on my Santa Fe on 7/20. Dropped car off at dealership on 7/22 and was told later that day it would need a new transmission and the dealership was told by Hyundai to give me a loaner car until Hyundai decided what to do about my car. I filed a claim on 7/23 with Hyundai about doing a buy back. I was told I would receive a call in 2-3 business days but have yet to receive one. I called Hyundai on 7/31 and was told my case manager had left a voice mail for me on 7/29 but I have no vm or missed call. I was given my case managers direct phone number and left a vm. Today is 8/1 and my 2024 Santa Fe Calligraphy that I bought on 6/28 and drove for only 3 weeks is sitting in the dealerships parking lot and per dealership, on 7/31 they are still waiting to hear from HYUNDAI. It has 1300 miles on it and luckily I did not get stranded 400 miles away while on vacation. I am very upset that no one contacted me or when problems started to occur with this vehicle, nothing was done and the vehicles were still being sold to the public

The contact owns a 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe. The contact stated while operating the vehicle, there was water leaking into the cabin of the vehicle from underneath the instrument panel onto the accelerator pedal. Additionally, while operating the vehicle, the engine and outside the vehicle were extremely hot, and the temperature gauge had malfunctioned. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 100.

On July 3, 2024 the vehicle was parked on my driveway. My driveway is very steep, the sun was out and it was windy. I opened the car and got in, the wind caught the door and it slammed shut. The back window shattered and many small glass particles were on ground behind the car and on the backs of the second and third row seats that were down. If someone had been sitting in the third row seat they would have been cover in glass. The dealer said that this could not have happened as described, but it did, and that I should repair the window my self. The glass is only 1/8 inch thick and I asked the glass company if they could get a thicker pane, none is available. I believe the manufacturer should recall and replace the back window with a stronger pane. Pictures and repair invoice to be mailed.

Our 2024 Santa Fe while traveling 70mph on the freeway suddenly lost power and went into what Hyundai warranty described as "limp mode'. This happened 2x. The 1st time was June 26, 2024 and the 2nd time was June 29th 2024. Both times the high pressure fuel pump was diagnosed by 2 different Hyundai dealership service facilities.Both times were highly potentially serious risk situations- traveling at highway speeds in traffic when suddenly losing engine power, and having to navigate off freeway/highway with no acceleration, basically rolling/drifting off.

DCT transmission issue

Two incidents prior to taking in to the dealership: Thursday, 6/27: Car would not reverse when trying to get out of parking spot. Even though it was indicating reverse it kept moving forward in neutral Friday, 6/28: Car would not go into park. When I tried to set it in park it switched between gears erratically before ending on neutral. Received warning to take it to the dealer and could not turn off car—it stayed in accessory mode. Wednesday, 7/3: Learned from dealer that there was a hole in transmission. No update on how long it will take to be repaired.

Shuddering/shaking when driving. Whether or not when accelerating. Turn vehicle on and it jolted and died but would start up again after a few minutes.
