    I wanted to say thank you for your video!! I have a Hyundai Santa Fe 2013. My mechanic wanted to replace the whole turbo because I had a loss in power at $2000. After watching your video I asked him to check the turbo actuator and because of your video I saved a lot of money on that part. That was the fix the actuator was bad. So I wanted to thank you so very much I love all your videos!!

    I am surprised you didn't speak about the main issue, the burning of oil. My 2017 Sanatfe burns oil so fast. There's no oil level sensor in such a modern vehicle. Failure to manually check oil on a bi-weekly basis will lead to you engine breaking. If u want to get this vehicle check and top up oil every 2weeks otherwise your engine will break.

    I have a 2014 Santa Fe Sport 2.0T. Last September, (2020) we were pulling a utility trailer (empty) back to our house, about an hours drive. We just bought it (used). It was banging up and down at the tongue, and I was getting concerned, though it wasn't loose. Suddenly, the engine slowed down, wouldn't rev up, but I was able to maintain some speed. I stopped to check it out, nothing seems to be wrong otherwise. So a check with a meter at an auto parts store revealed my knock sensor went out due to the noise my trailer was making. After checking up on line, we found the sensor was on *recall* . So check your VIN to see if yours is on recall. After talking to Hyundai, they said the *whole engine was on recall* ! So they replaced the engine with a new factory engine including the knock sensor and, according the build sheet, the turbo as well! Didn't charge us a thing. Took about six weeks, they gave us a loaner car from the rental next door. No issues, 100% guaranteed engine, full drive train to a hundred thousand miles! It was around 76K when it went out. So I still have a hundred thousand miles on it to go! I just wished that American cars and trucks (are you reading this GM?) would give this kind of service!

    Knock sensor tripped in my used 2013 Santa Fe just a few months after I bought it. Turned out to be a machining error on the bolts, causing metal flakes to get into the oil and circulate. I got a brand new engine installed by Hyundai via recall. Love my Santa Fe and I love that the company made it right. Will be upgrading to a newer one soon!

Sent an oil sample to Blackstone and it came back no issues and no trace metals indicating a bearing issue. This car had a Carfax showing dealer oil changes every 4000 miles. I think one of the keys is frequent oil changes and making sure the oil level does not get low on these cars.

    Thanks A1 Auto, for the informative video. I bought a 2017 Sport , lease return, from my local dealer in 2018. Called the former lessor, to get his input. He told me the reason he returned it after only a year, was that he needed the larger model to haul his grandchildren around. So he bought the version with extra seating. Otherwise he loved it. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed this vehicle, and would consider another in the future. Mine now has 58k, and is dealer maintained. I will say, I do prefer the screen location in this model, to the newest version. Gas mileage has been steady, between 25-28mpg. I’m hoping to keep this one for many years, because it does feel like a solid design and ride. Very comfy.

      Watch out for the oil pressure sensor on the 3.3 V6. It can blow apart on hard acceleration. Results in Massive oil loss oil pressure light on and a big repair bill with a tow as you won’t have enough oil in the engine to drive it to a service station. Dealers are well aware of this common problem with the V6 and the oil pressure switch can blow out more than once in the life of the car. Should definitely be a recall.
      3.3 V6 is also direct gas injection and gets oil dirty faster than most engines and has comparably poor mileage to other V6s

    I beg to differ on issue P2562 - "Turbo Waste gate actuator voltage out of range". This can be fixed by simply adjusting the length of the actuator's connecting rod to bring the voltage output of the actuator back into its required voltage range (typically 3.9 to 4.1 volts DC). This should be tried first to eliminate the need to replace the actuator or turbo unit. Takes about 1 hr for an inexperienced mechanic to complete. I've done it myself, and it worked great and saved me a LOT of money.

    One key issue (arguably the single most important) not mentioned in this video: the direct fuel injection for this series WILL cause catastrophic engine failure sometime between 30,000 and 200,000 miles. Mine died at 123,000. Through the course of this drama, I spoke with multiple Hyundai techs who told me it's sort of a "public secret" that Hyundai has chosen to omit from any service bulletins. The upside is that if you take your Hyundai in to the dealer, they're very likely to replace your engine with a rebuilt engine one (which will, sadly demonstrate the same failure at some point-in which case, you'll have to "rinse & repeat.")

      Just had this done on April of 2022. They have a recall now on several Hyundai and Kia engines 2011-2016. I've had so many issues with ignition coils, spark plugs, turbo and yet they did NOT replace those parts due to the main issue that led to these parts failing. I've just purchased another set of ignition coils since the engine was replaced. Replacing the engine (which is actually just failed parts inside it) does not fix the domino parts that have been affected by these issues that car makers will not take responsibility for. Not impressed by dealerships lack of pushing for makers to actually fix the FULL issues that consumers should not have to cover due to their poor craftsmanship.

    Another common problem I have found with and a few other hyundais, is the discharge hose from the a/c compressor leaks, the rubber hose must shrink in the aluminium crimp letting the gas leak out, It's easy to tell, just look at the hoses that run off the compressor, it's the thinner of the 2, look there the rubber hose is crimped to the aluminium, if it's covered in oil, there's your problem, the hose will either need to be repaired or replaced with a new one

    I had to replace 3 wheel hubs to pass inspection in April of 2019, haven't had a problem with them since.
    My back-up camera hasn't worked since I bought it. I've lost 2 windshields.

    This vehicle on the video seems to have significant rust and corrosion on exposed under vehicle parts. We don't see that here in a dryer part of the country. Another "issue" with this vehicle is premature wear from the front sway bar links that results in clunking even over very small bumps. Best to replace with Moog links which have fittings to grease. This vehicle, as most know, has a GDI injection system which can result in excessive loss of performance/power due to carbon build up on the back side of the intake valves. I have found that an intake cleaner (such as CRC) simply sprayed into the intake makes a significant difference. A way to reduce the build up this is to install a simple oil "catch can" in line with the vacuum line going into the PCV .....just have to drain the "can" about every oil change.

    I have a 2019 2.0 litre turbo Santa Fe (it's 5 years old now) with push button start. There are 76k kilometerrs on it. Sometimes it won't start. I hear the clicking of the starter relay picking up, but the starter won't even turn over. It's almost like there is some kind of interlock issue.
    It's very intermittent and just starting happening about 1 year ago. The battery is ok. I swapped the starter relay and that did'nt make any difference.
    Sometimes when it won't start, I wait a few minutes and then try starting it through the bluelink app; and it still won't start. Then I'll try again 10 minutes later and it starts ok from the push button. Sometimes it does start from blue link app.
    I also changed the batteries in the key fob and that did'nt make a difference.
    It's a very random issue but lately it's happening more frequently.
    Next I will try cleaning the starter electrical terminal connections (positive and ground terminals) but I doubt that is the issue.
    Does anybody else have this issue ?
    Any ideas what else I can check ?
    I did take it to the dealership and they scanned it for codes and found nothing. They tried to replicate the non-start issue, but it kept starting ok at the dealership.
    Any feedback will be greatly appreciated.

    Have a 2013 hyandai Sante Fe. After driving and going up the smallest of hills, the breaks will engage and the car will not move until it cools off. It will also have a burning smell of which we assume was from brake fluid leaking?? Took to dealership and they couldn’t figure it out but wanted to charge $2000 to replace abs system but couldn’t guarantee that would fix the problem. This was what was told after having the car at dealership for over 2 weeks. We couldn’t pay $2000 for what “may or May not be the problem “, so took it to a shop and he replaced the abs sensor and system and still didn’t work and he finally gave up not able to figure it out. Made complaint to Hyundai, took info and about 3 weeks later they called and said there’s nothing they can do. It’s not on recall. Do you know what could possibly be causing break to engage after going up the smallest of hills. When it does it, it also smells of fluid as if the break fluid is leaking out. It will not move until it cools off and it got to the point where it didn’t matter if it was a hill, it would just stop. And isn’t it ridiculous dealership can’t figure it out? We can’t drive it and can’t afford new car. Help!!

    1. Is it ok to remove the shield underneath the vehicle to allow easier access to the oil drain bolt and filter? I live in the south so no worries of snow, salt getting up into my engine.
    2. My Santa Fe does not come equipped with foglights, only the cover knockouts, i want to eventually install foglamps, does this vehicle have the factory foglamp wiring harnesses to connect into?
    3. Does the 2.4L have a timing belt or timing chain?

    Nice video, thank you. I'm no mechanic but I do own a 2018 Santa Fe Ultimate and have not had any of these issues (knock on wood). I did find what I think to be a major design problem on this vehicle. After seeing the "Check AEB System light" come on with every startup, I brought the vehicle to the dealer thinking this issue would be covered by the warranty that is still in affect. I was told this issue is due to the radar sensor located way on the bottom front of the front bumper being damaged. As far as I know of there has been no front end collision but I was shown some minor damage on the lowest point of the bumper. Where I'm from (and probably 95 percent of the US population). it is totally possible and probable that the bottom of the bumper scrapped the floor exiting a strip mall parking lot at a low speed. It also may have hit some somewhat packed snow when driving down an unplowed street or getting out of a parking space with snow shoveled hills between the spot and the road . The bumper could also may been hit by someone backing into a parking spot in front of me. The way I see it is any car in any major city is going to run into these types of issues and will incur some minor cosmetic damage and is to be expected when using your vehicle for everyday life. Putting an expensive (over $1700) safety feature part in such a vulnerable place is just down right wrong! I don't know if other car makers do this as well. While observing other cars for the last 2 days, I have not noticed any with a similar 4 X 7 black mirrored box on the lower front bumper that hides/protects the radar sensor on my Santa Fe and other Hyundais I've seen, but it may be there as well. I've owned 3 other Hyundais and still drive a 2009 Elantra and have been pretty satisfied Now that I splurged on a top tier Hyundai I am very disappointed. 😡

      Hi! I have the same vehicle. Just did a trip from Florida to the Texas Panhandle and back. Absolutely no issues and everything function properly. I did have an oil change in Texas. Upon returning, the ABS light came on and my front end was covered with splattered bugs. After scrubbing everything off including the black box, everything is fine now. Just wondering if you may have had splattered bugs with debris that's covering the front sensor?

    The knock sensor has a recall to reprogram it. The engines also eat the main bearings and fail. Hyundai has extended the warranty from 5 years 100k km to 10 years 200k km and replace the engine. Thst should be the number 1 problem in the car.

    I had a 2014 Hyundai Sant Fe limited AWD and the AC went out at 60,000 miles as well as the transmission and I never towed anything with it... This winter we had a bad snowstorm and my husband got stuck trying to go up a hill with NEW tires (and it's close to $1k to replace tires on this thing). It having AWD was one of the main reasons we bought it and paid wayyyy too much for it. Cars were driving past him like it was nothing!
    We had multiple electrical issues with it as well. The check engine light constantly came on and off and after running diagnostics, no one could figure out what the heck was wrong with the thing. And don't get me started on that stupid key fob. If the battery dies in it, you can't drive at all. So you better keep button batteries with you at all times. And the cargo space is crap too. If someone wants third row seating and decent trunk space, get a minivan or a large SUV.
    Overall, just not worth how much I paid for the vehicle. Everyone told me to get a Honda or Hyundai and now I will get American made since the parts are at least readily available and don't cost an arm and a leg. I know most reviews are positive on this vehicle, but I wouldn't recommend it.

    Need to add turbo oil feed line to the list. Hard to diagnose because it drips oil onto the drive shaft which throws oil all over. If you have oil on the passanger side suspension arms and lower section of the engine but not directly below the valve cover then the turbo oil feed tube is most likely your culprit.
