2019 Hyundai Santa Fe Owner Comments

problem #1

Jan 012021

Santa Fe SEL 2.4L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 9,000 miles

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

The dealership did the first oil change and did not mention anything about this problem. When I did the 2nd oil change myself at 9000 miles, I noticed the strong smell of gasoline. It was so bad I had to take the oil pan outside the garage. There is knowledge of this engine being prone to catch fire, so now I know why.

Reached out to Hyundai, because this is clearly a manufacturing problem, and Chris very politely declined to take the car back.

I feel ripped off because the money that I paid for this car was not defective, and I got a defective car. I don't want repairs because it is not something that got broken. I want the car that I paid for. One with no defects in the manufacturing process.

Really disappointed with the brand. I drove a Honda prior to this one with 0 problems for 10 years.
