While driving on the highway, starting around 55mph, the car starts getting wobbly on the road. It is a constant struggle with the steering wheel to keep the car going straight. If there is any wind or driving by trucks, the car becomes even more difficult to control. I have seen many others having the same issue and there does not appear to be a fix, however dealer attempts seem to even worsen the issue with others, so I have yet to address this with the dealer. I do worry when my wife drives the car because she is not used to it, and has ' thrown' her into the breakdown lane several times. I'm hoping Hyundai will acknowledge the issue and come up with a viable solution.

At highway speeds of around 65+ mph, the vehicle requires constant, but very slight, steering corrections where the slightest lapse in attention may result in the vehicle leaving its lane and possibly result in a crash. Oddly, this is most noticeable on smooth, straight, level highways without wind or other vehicles nearby that could affect the tracking of the vehicle. It seems to be an alignment issue (neg. Or 0 deg toe) or an electric power steering system issue (torque sensor too coarse, drive motor too aggressive, or improper gain (I.e. system responds too late to input, then over responds when it does respond))...though these are educated guesses. My first dealers refused to check the alignment because they "have to drive the vehicle to confirm the issue, " and "they are not allow to drive over 65 mph." Even if they were able to drive above 65 mph, they would have to do it on the right type of highway and under the right conditions for the issue to show itself, and I doubt many dealers will go through such an effort. This is a very common complaint with the 2013 models and, to a lesser degree, with the 2014 models. Please see: www.Hyundai-forums.com/dm-2013-santa-fe/152283-2013-santa-fe-sport-steering-issues-33.html note that many people with similar complaints were unable to resolve the problem with an alignment (pointing to the eps having an issue). The same complaints also appear with the Hyundai sonata.

Car wonders when traveling on freeway going at freeway speeds. Correcting for this darting from side to side seems scary at these speeds. Changing the driving mode selection on the steering wheel doesn't change the problem. I still experience the same wondering and darting that I am constantly trying to correct. Thought it might be tires but they are new and no signs of unusual wear. Acts like a worn ball joint or tie rod or the need for an alignment.

2014 Santa Fe sport AWD - the car wanders excessively at highway speeds and the problem becomes worse as the speed increases. The car needs continuous steering correcting just trying to travel in a straight line. The car will dart front right to left at varying degrees of intensity. The car was taken to the dealership with less than 500 miles to address this issue and the dealer checked the alignment but found no issues with it. As described by others, the car behaves as if it had worn out ball joints, however it is a brand new vehicle. I had thought that this was an isolated issue with my vehicle, but after test driving another Santa Fe sport AWD and reading online reviews from places such as edmunds.com and numerous owner community forums by simply searching "Santa Fe wandering", it appears that a vast number of people are experiencing this terrifying anomaly. This issue makes me feel incredibly unsafe driving on the highway especially when passing traffic or next to other vehicles as the car does not want to drive in a straight line.

The contact owns a 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe. The contact stated that while driving approximately 50 mph, the vehicle drifted from left to right. The contact indicated that when driving the vehicle at highway speeds, it was very difficult to keep vehicle in a straight line. The vehicle was taken to the dealer several times where the alignment was adjusted and the tires were checked but the defect persisted. The manufacturer was not informed of the defect. The failure mileage was 150.

Drove new 2014 Santa Fe sport 2.0T for the first time on the highway after buying it 3 days earlier. The vehicle would not maintain a straight path while driving at highway speed. Sf required continuous correction at a varying degree. It is not only that the vehicle wonders, but it does so mildly and aggressively. The vehicle tends to sway and rock all while trying to correct for the continuous wondering. It's a very odd sensation that occurs, just when you think you might go straight for a bit the vehicle will dart to one side and it has no rhythm or reason. Sometimes left sometimes right and the road crown plays no part in the direction. Dealer aligned all 4 wheels twice. Added toe in and camber to the rear. Also, replaced rear springs and shocks. Turns out one of the springs was shorter than the other by 1/4" causing the suspension to be unbalanced. This repair helped for some of the unexplained rocking but now that it is fixed the whole steering issue has been exacerbated. I don't feel safe in the vehicle and intend on selling it. Currently, it has 11K miles. I logged another complaint with Hyundai customer service today too. The fact that potential buyers rarely get to drive the new car for more than 7-10 miles and at speeds rarely above city is a disservice. If Hyundai knows this problem exists and government oversight knows, than it is deceitful and dishonest. Lastly, this vehicle behaves in the same manner as one with worn out ball joints that would not pass a state safety inspection. Yet these Santa fes are still being sold. It's a wolf in sheep's clothing. Buyer beware!
