Um, can someone explain what these are? Why would I need "rollover sensors"? It seems like it would be pretty obvious when the vehicle is rolling over. The 07 and up Santa Fes all have tire pressure monitoring (an anti-rollover feature) along with electronic stability control (an anti-rollover feature), as well as curtain airbags. What does a "rollover sensor" do for you?

Truthfully I have no opinion either way -- however I wouldn't believe anything just because it's in a manual. Even technical documents can resemble cheap advertising these days. |

On the NHTSA (govt) side, Santa Fe has a perfect 5 stars all around, with a rollover rating as high as possible for the type of the vehicle. Still, rollover sensors are good to have for some. Which of its competitors have them? Just curious.
