Here you go---some info on Lemon Laws in Illinois. I just happened to stumble on this and thought I'd post it, since I sort of diverted you off course with BBB stuff.

Well here we go again. Another dealership and still the same issue that they cannot replicate the issue. I believe that Hyundai Corporate has taken issue that the BBB complaint has been filed and now they are just trying to make me look stupid. I was told, and I ma not sure if this is true, so I will pose the question, does anyone know if the only way to fix the problem, under warranty is to take it to a Hyundai dealership? I mean they already have it a case open on it, and they act like I am making it up. I gave very specific instructions on what happens, when it happens and so on. I have even stated I would drive with the mechanic or whoever is test driving the car to show them the issue and they have declined. Any ideas?

07 Santa Fe CV Boot & ECU Replaced by grutza
Jul 30, 2009 (12:43 pm)

I go to an independent mechanic and he stated the left front CV boot was leaking grease. I scheduled an appointment for the following week.
 
Over the weekend I experienced what some others have, ESC light off, cruise won't work, brake lights won't function and can't shift gears without using the override button.
 
Both were replaced under warranty, the brake light issue they were familiar with and looked to see if my VIN was covered under recall or TSB. It wasn't but replaced the ECU, according to my paperwork, under warranty along with the CV boot.
 
On another note, they had a Equus in the showroom. Looks great.

Figured it out! Our Santa Fe finally did not start after we shut it off and figured out the fuel pump went out. Took it to Dealership where they replaced the pump. Here comes the shock.....it had been re-wired directly to the fuse box causing the pump to function all the time with the key on/engine off! Yes, you read right...it was "hot wired" by passing the original harness and relay switch.
 
We purchased it used in Las Vegas, NV.
 
Anyone have an idea why someone would do this?

If your tires are new, I would contact the tire maker, as they can replace your tires for free. I'm not sure an alignment will help unless you get new tires.

'07 S, Fe - replaced rear wiper blade by jcwsbltd

'07 Santa Fe Ltd - saw the rubber split and drooping down on my rear wiper today, so read the manual for replacement size and Whoa ! - it says simnply to refer to Dealer for rear wiper replacement.
 
I went to the dealer and they wanted $40 (yes- $40) to replace it. i said I wasn't paying that much for it and went to Pep-Boys. Got a 13" blade for $6-99 and they replaced it for free.
 
However, be warned - the OEM blade arm assembly is a plastic arm, which would not come off, so the Tech. had to pull out the old rubber blade, take out the new one from it's metal arm and push the new one in to the existing prongs on the original blade arm.
 
Anyone else had the same problem or an easier experience for replacement?

Roof Rack Cross Bars by srz948

Are the cross bars on the Santa Fe roof rack easily removed? If so an explanation of how is greatly appreciated. I might be taking a long trip and I understand the cross bars could reduce mileage by 4%. Thank You.
