In rainy humid conditions, the air conditioning compressor will shut down causing warm air to blow inside the car cabin. This immediately causes the windows to fog up causing a very dangerous driving condition. This has now happened 5 times since owning the car. If you turn the car off, let it rest for a few minutes, then turn back on the air compressor will work again but only for the short time. We have taken the…

When slowing down for traffic lights, turns or merging into traffic lanes, when the brake is released and the accelerator is pushed, at random times the car hesitates and all power is lost momentarily.

The automatic climate control system in my 2010 santa fe limited would occasionally stop running the air conditioning compressor, usually during heavy rain or humid conditions. Even with the a/c switch and indicator light on, the compressor would still not activate until the ignition was cycled. This caused the interior windows to fog up heavily and not clear, leading to a dangerous situation in which one instance…

2010 santa fe gl - about 60% of starting has a jerk/kick. It's like something engaged suddenly. Taken to the dealer twice and showed no abnormal readings. On aug. 19/2010, while driving on the highway at 110 km/hr there was a loud bang as if something hit the car from behind. I thought the truck beside me lost a wheel and struck my car. Had to get off the highway and do a visual inspection which revealed nothing. My…
