| Description of the problem | Leaving my home to travel out of town, the engine light came on. After having a diagnostic test completed i was told the sensors in the gas tank are malfunctioning (p0464) and this is a known issue with 2007 hyundai sante fe models. The gauge telling me how much gas i have is not reading correctly due to the sensor malfunction and can cause me to run out of gas at any time. The dealer refuses to do anything about it without charging me a $98 "diagnostic fee" even though the diagnostic was done elsewhere. I have an extended warranty on this vehicle but they refuse to honor that as well. |
