| Description of the problem | Traveling slowly on a side road, the front passanger side of my santa fe collapsed with the sound of a terrific boom. The coil spring on the passanger side had broken and dug like a knife into the tire, shredding the tire almost all the way around, leaving a deep, wide gash. Upon inspection, i saw that part of the coil had broken off. This problem is related to hyundia's "capaign 124," a recall for inspection and possible replacement of front end coil springs. |
