2001 Hyundai Santa Fe review from UK and Ireland
"I was very disappointed"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Multiple complete electronic failure. Speedometer, tachometer, gauges, cruise control failure.
Eventually, radio began spontaneously turning on and off.
General comments?
Of the approximate six months we had the car, well over half the time was back at the shop. First, speed sensor was replaced and eventually, the entire vehicle was rewired. Even after all of this, the problem remained.
Eventually, Hyundai took it back under the Lemon Law and we got a Hyundai Sonata in replacement.
