You havent lived until you are driving home from NY into New jersey going over the outerbridge crossing bridge , just picture it its you and your 2014 Hyundai Sante Fe Sport , all of a sudden you feel a slight decline of power. Your engine makes a never heard before sound. Then you start slowing down the engine is now grumbling sounding. The engine light is flashing ,now you are crawling into New Jersey , you hear louder sounds , think what to do , you dont want to stop on the side of RT 440 , Luckily there is enough power to get to an exit in Perth Amboy NJ. I stop at a gas station , now the engine is pretty much dead.
Guess what its the metal shavings you have heard about in the poorly engineered manufactureing process Hyundai has warned about for years. They Know about this defect in their engines , but just wait until peoples engines die on them on the highways , luckily maybe no one will die, hopefully. That is their plan , let poor people drive the cars with known engine defects , maybe they wont get in a horrific accident!.
Then if they are OK and make it home alive , and expend their cash on towing fees , and such make them wait to collect the money. WAIT WAIT you call , they say we will send you a check in the future. In the future. In the future.
True story
Our other vehicle is a Hyundai Sonata quess what year , 2014 - same engine , after they replaced the Sante Fe engine they say it too is guaranteed to fail just like the other car did. Just HOLD ON TIGHTLY TO THE STEERING WHEEL IF YOU FEEL ANYTHING PRAY !!!! They do not care !
