Replying to: somedai1 (Jan 10, 2008 8:24 pm) We called the manufacturer yesterday to try to get some assistance on the bill. Maybe they would reduce the amount of the bill due to them never seeing this happen before but they refused. Said nothing they could do. We are now looking at a new Toyota 4Runner.

Replying to: somedai1 (Jan 12, 2008 7:38 am) I don't think we would have the money to hire an attorney and drag this out. We have decided to have a used engine with 22,000 miles put in the car and keep it at another garage but we are looking at purchasing a 2008 4Runner. We will never buy another car from Joe Holland in Charleston WV. The service man (Jayson) who was assigned to us was always rude and his service manager wasn't any more help than he was. We have still not heard from the manufacturer and we have called them twice. No return calls. Thanks for your help.

Does anyone know where the crank shaft sensor is located on the Sante Fe 02? I have replaced the fuel pump thinking that was the problem, but not. Test drove and the car died, got it started and drove it home. Now it will not start at all. |

Replying to: chiwlf (Mar 30, 2008 11:58 am) At this very moment, my 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe is being repaired at the local Hyundai dealership. On Tuesday nite, my Santa Fe started stalling - on a busy street - and then stopped when the engine light came on. After over an hour, roadside service arrived and gave me a "jump". After turning on my lights, high beam and the air conditioner, he said there was nothing "major" wrong with my vehicle; neither the battery nor the altenator were the problem. After letting it run for a few minutes, I attempted to drive home. Less than 2 miles later, it stopped again. Again, I let it run for 10-15 minutes and drove the last 2 miles home. The next morning it was towed to the dealer. Their assessment: "Battery testing bad. Charging system tested fine. Replaced battery and retested system. Condition corrected." I agreed to have the battery replaced based on this assessment - although the roadside service said there was no problem with my battery, since I had 55,700 miles on my vehicle. I purchased 4 new tires in August and did not get a front-end alignment. Therefore, I told them to do a front-end alignment as well. When I got my bill, I was being charged for a "4-wheel alignment" rather than a front-end alignment. The service department person told me each of these procedures cost the same. Again, what did I ask for? What did I receive? I paid my bill and fewer than 2 miles later, my vehicle stopped - on the expressway!! I immediately phoned the dealer and made him aware of the magnitude of my discontent. They sent a tow truck - over an hour later. They loaned me a 2008 Santa Fe and reminded me that I was responsible for the gas. I received a call yesterday afternoon and, after running additional test, it was determined that that the Crank Sensor went bad. It is covered under the 5/60. I'll pick it up later this afternoon. Let us not talk about how I really, really feel about my experience... ImaniKristina (ichessmom2  aol.com)
