NHTSA Complaint #10604953 — 2010 HYUNDAI SANTA FE

WHILE DRIVING IN RAIN AND HIGH HUMIDITY, GOING SOUTH ON ROUTE 95, A/C COOLING STOPPED WORKING AND ONLY WARM AIR WAS BLOWING THROUGH THE VENTS. STOPPED WORKING FOR OVER AN HOUR, UNTIL I STOPPED FOR GAS IN FT. PIECE. WHEN I RESTARTED, IT BEGAN TO WORK AND WORKED FOR ANOTHER 20 MINUTES BEFORE IT STOPPED. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER ON JUNE 3. DEALER SAID HE COULD NOT REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM AND WOULD DO NOTHING. IT HAPPENED AGAIN ON JUNE 13 WHILE DRIVING. I WENT BACK TO THE DEALER AND HE AGAIN SAID HE COULD NOT REPRODUCE IT AND WOULD DO NOTHING. I REPORTED IT HYUNDAI WOULD SAID IT COULD NOT BE REPRODUCED AND WOULD DO NOTHING. I FOUND NUMEROUS INSTANCES, ON THE INTERNET, OF PEOPLE REPORTING THIS PROBLEM, BUT WAS TOLD UNLESS I COULD REPRODUCE ON MY VEHICLE, NOTHING WOULD BE DONE. I HAVE TO WAIT FOR IT TO HAPPEN AGAIN AND HOPE THE CAR DEALER IS OPEN. *TR
