Why are there transmission problems in the Hyundai Santa Fe?
Damico says he took the Santa Fe to a Hyundai dealership and was told the vehicle was working as intended and no repairs were needed. According to the lawsuit, the transmission problems present safety hazards because the SUVs can’t be trusted to do what drivers want them to do.
Why does my Hyundai Santa Fe shutter when I change gears?
Both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive models were affected.

Most drivers said this happened when they were first driving the vehicle and not once it had warmed up.
