What owners wrote

We bought a brand new 2007 hyundai santa fe on 8/20/07. The "ESC off" light intermittently illuminates on the dashboard. The first time I took it to the dealer for the problem was at 765 miles on 9/13/07. A special part was ordered per the repair order. The next time I took it to the dealer for the same problem was on 10/4/07 at 1863 miles. On 9/4/08 at 14721 miles, it happened again. This time I had an incident right near the dealer where the car lurched forward and pulled to the right.

Reported at 16,158 miles, October 2008

Electronic stability control (ESC) malfunction light illuminated, check engine light on. Diagnostic scan indicated a bad brake lite switch. Same symptoms as NHTSA campaign 09v122000 but hyundai dealer and customer assistance center claim vehicle is not part of this campaign.
