I have an '07 Santa Fe and have noticed that when I go over even the smallest of bumps there's a clunking noise on the right hand side of the vehicle. I thought it was coming from the B pillar around the belt adjuster, but it may be from the RF head restraint. Not sure, but since the same noise doesn't come from the left side it must be an issue ... right? Has anyone else noticed this?

 

I know my 07 Santa Fe has a noise in the RF headrest...........I also had another noise from the right side and it was the sunroof manual opening key inside the glove box....Seems like every little thing likes to move around alot in the santa fe, especially in the glove box and in the storage compartments in your doors

 

I have noticed the same noise with mine until I rode in the passenger seat and then it doesn't do it. For me it appear to be the suspension. I think the noice just carries inside the body and this is feedback noise. I can't hear it once I sit in the passenger seat, but it appear to be coming from the drive side this time.....

Mine is going in for some service on May 31 and I will touch base with the dealership to see.

I will post after that !
