What Owners Say
"Air conditioning stopped working, brought it into the Hyundai dealership and they couldn't figure out why it stopped working. They guessed it was the A/C compressor, but couldn't say for sure. To avoid spending over $1,000 without reason I brought it into another garage and they added more refrigerant. It keeps failing after every winter, then has to be filled again."
Nicholas S., CT (2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Limited 3.3-L V6)"Very frustrating I didn't use the AC during the winter and I passed my warranty miles then, when I went to use the AC in the Spring, it was broken"
Anonymous, OH (2013 Hyundai Santa Fe 3.3-L V6)"Went out and had to be replaced."
Anonymous, OH (2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Limited 3.3-L V6)"AC simply shut down, fan blower, compressor, etc., only way to "reset" is to power down the vehicle completely then restart the vehicle. Had it "repaired" once and worked fine for about a year. Just shut off the other day - no apparent reason excep"

Anonymous, NH (2013 Hyundai Santa Fe GLS 3.3-L V6)"The heat or air conditioning will not come on when you change the temperature setting unless you turn the setting all the way down or up. Have not taken in to be repaired yet. I use manual controls to turn on heat or air conditioning instead of automatic temperature settings."
Anonymous, VA (2013 Hyundai Santa Fe GLS 3.3-L V6)"Took car in before the 100,000 mile warranty expired due to the fan when on for the windshield makes a noise. Unable to diagnose without taking apart the dashboard etc. Too expensive and not covered under warranty. I will live with the noise."

"AC stopped working. Car overheated. Towed to Spokane, WA (110 miles away) twice before problem was totally stalked. Hyundai payed towing expenses. First fixed a relay switch which had burned. 2nd time was the part just past the first relay which was malfunctioning."
