| 2008 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | AS I WAS DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 35MPH GOING UP A HILL, MY 2008 HYUNDAI SANTA FE ACCELERATED AT A VERY HIGH RATE OF SPEED AND PUSHING THE BRAKES AT FULL PRESSURE ONLY SLOWED THE VEHICLE IT WOULD NOT STOP AND THE ENGINE REVVED. I WAS IN A PANIC BECAUSE VEHICLES WERE IN FRONT OF ME AND I ALMOST SLAMMED INTO THEM. I MANAGED TO PULL TO THE SIDE AND TRAVEL ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TRYING TO STOP MY VEHICLE. I FINALLY SHIFTED FROM DRIVE TO NEUTRAL ALL THE WHILE PUSHING THE BRAKES AND GOT THE VEHICLE IN PARK. I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO SCARED IN MY LIFE AND FORTUNATELY DID NOT HIT ANY OTHER VEHICLE. I CALLED A TOW TRUCK TO TOW THE VEHICLE TO MY GARAGE BECAUSE I WAS TO AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. I AM AWAITING DIAGNOSIS.. UNFORTUNATELY IT WAS LATE FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND THE GARAGE WAS CLOSED. THEY WILL NOT BE ABLE TO LOOK AT UNTIL MONDAY. *TR |
| 2007 | STEERING | I WAS MAKING A SHARP CIRCLE TYPE CURVE TO THE RIGHT AND THE STEERING WHEEL COMPLETELY LOCKED UP. I DID NOT LOSE ANY POWER, THE BRAKES WORKED FINE, AND NO LIGHTS LIT UP ON THE PANEL. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF THE VEHICLE. THE LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP AS WELL AS THE HYUNDAI CUSTOMER SERVICE REP AT THE CORPORATE PHONE NUMBER WERE VERY UNCONCERNED. I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM ONLINE FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF HOURS, AND THIS APPEARS TO BE A VERY COMMON AND VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM. *TR |
