    2011 santa fe leaks oil constantly. It's more noticeable when the car is stationary, because our driveway is always covered with oil stains.

Dealer stated there was no problem when i first bought the car and noticed the issue.

In every case the gas peddle (throttle) is fully released and when i push on the gas peddle, nothing happens. The motor does not speed up, the throttle is not engaging anything. Several times i pushed the peddle half the…
