2015 Hyundai Santa Fe Body & Structure Problems

THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR WILL NOT OPEN EITHER FROM THE INSIDE OR OUTSIDE. THIS HAPPENED OUT OF THE BLUE. CAR IS A 2015...AND NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. IN RESEARCHING MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH HYUNDAI MODELS AND YEARS. WE HAVE TALKED WITH THE DEALERSHIP, TAKEN IT TO A LOCKSMITH (COULDN'T OPEN WITH A SLIM JIM AND AN INDEPENDENT THAT USED TO WORK FOR HYUNDAI WHO SAID HE WOULD HAVE TO DESTROY THE PANEL TO GET INSIDE TO CHECK THE ASSEMBLY AND REPAIR. DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE IF A FAST EXIT IS NEEDED. HYUNDAI FORUMS HAVE THE ISSUE BEING ASKED ABOUT FREQUENTLY INVOLVING ONE DOOR OR WITH MULTIPLE DOORS

PANORAMIC SUNROOF EXPLODED OVER MY HEAD WHILE I WAS DRIVING, JUST STARTING TO MERGE ON THE FREEWAY.

FOLLOWING WARRANTY WORK ON DEFECTIVE DOOR LOCKS, THE REAR TAILGATE OPENS ELECTRONICALLY BUT OFTENTIMES WILL CLOSE IMMEDIATELY ON YOU. IT IS INCONSISTENT, SOMETIMES IT OCCURS TWICE IN A ROW AND SOMETIMES IT IS EVERY THIRD OPENING. IT HAS COME DOWN ON MY HEAD AND THAT OF MY WIFE. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF AND HAPPENS WHEN USING THE INTERIOR BUTTON, THE BUTTON ON THE KEY FOB AND THE BUTTON ON THE TAILGATE HANDLE.

WE HAVE BEEN WARNED THAT THE HOOD MAY BLOW OFF INTO THE WINDSHEILD WHILE TRAVELING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. SAID THEY HAVE A FIX BUT IT HAS BEEN A COUPLE OF MONTHS BEFORE THEY SAY THEY HAVE A PART TO FIX IT. WE ARE AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR AT THIS POINT

I RECEIVED RECALL FOR SECONDARY HOOD LATCH WHICH CAN CAUSE HOOD TO REMAIN OPEN AND OBSCURE DRIVER VISION. I SCHEDULED APPOINTMENT WITH RICK CASE HYUNDAI. WHEN I GOT THERE, I WAS TOLD PART WAS NOT IN STOCK AND THEY COULD NOT RESCHEDULE BECAUSE THEY WEREN'T SURE WHEN THEY COULD GET PART. I CALLED POTAMKIN HYUNDAI AND HAD TO LEAVE A MESSAGE BECAUSE THEY DID NOT ANSWER THEIR SERVICE PHONE. I AM FILING COMPLAINT IN CASE SOMETHING HAPPENS, HYUNDAI CAN BE HELD LIABLE FOR NOT FIXING THIS ISSUE IN A TIMELY MANNER.

I RECEIVED A RECALL FROM YOU REGARDING THE SECONDARY LATCH ON THE HOOD RELEASE. I CALLED THE DEALER TO ARRANGE CORRECTION. DEALER REP SAID THAT PARTS ON BACK ORDER AND I COULD BE PUT ON WAITING LIST. I CALLED HYUNDAI FINANCE AS THE VEHICLE IS LEASED AND SAID CAN YOU DO ANYTHING? THEY SAID TO TAKE VEHICLE TO DEALER AND HAVE LATCH INSPECTED. I CALLED DEALER BACK AND ASKED FOR AN APPOINTMENT. TODAY IS AUGUST 7, THEY SET AN APPOINTMENT FOR SEPTEMBER 5. I SAID AN INSPECTION REQUIRING 5 MINUTES TAKES A MONTH? PAPERWORK, REP SAID. MY COMPLAINT IS THAT YOU ISSUED AN IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL AND MF. HAS NO PARTS? IS SEALER STALLING? DEALER NAME IS JOHNSON HYUNDAI IN CARY, NORTH CAROLINA. DON'T SEND RECALLS IF THE COMPANY WON'T CO-OPERATE! *TR
