In the United States, safety car
recalls must be performed at no charge to the customer. Car
manufacturers are required by law to mail notices of car recalls to
owners and dealers.
Notices get lost in the mail or
discarded as junk mail. Even after these attempts to notify
customers, only 72% of owners affected by safety issue Hyundai Santa Fe Recalls
have the recall work completed. Hyundai Santa Fe Recalls
The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) regularly announces vehicle safety car
recalls in an effort to inform and urge owners to get problems
repaired quickly.
Car Accident Advice often obtains
recall notices before dealers and owners. The NHTSA recommends
that you wait for the mailed bulletin to arrive before requesting
the work to be done. However, you can ask your
Hyundai Santa Fe recalls dealer when the next recall update notice is expected at their shop.

Summary
On certain sport utility vehicles equipped with 3.5-liter V-6 engines, 4-wheel drive and antilock braking systems (ABS), if the brake pedal is depressed at speeds between 3 and 12 mph when the brake pad friction surfaces are wet, a vibration may occur between the brake discs and pads causing ABS sensor electronic signal noise to develop. At speeds below 5 mph, the ABS sensor signal noise may cause the ABS electronic control unit (ECU) to activate the ABS, extending the stopping distance. If an extended stopping distance occurs, it could result in a crash.

Remedy:
Dealers will reprogram the ABS ECU. The manufacturer has reported that owner notification was expected to begin during April 2004. Owners may contact Hyundai at 1-800-633-5151.
