What owners wrote
To whom it may concern, two weeks ago my 2013 hyundai santafe sport turbo (which I purchased new in 2013) experienced an engine stall as I was driving on the freeway. I was able to coast to the side of the road and then experienced an engine fire that has caused extensive damage. The fire was extinguished as quickly as possible, but not before extensive damage had been caused.
ABS sensors going bad on these models. Happend today when I was just sitting with SUV running. Got a c1209 bad right rear sensor, read up on it and more people have had multiple failures with this. Some stated they got recalls depending on where they live and others didn't.
