| Description of the problem | 2013 santa fe 2. 0 awd- fuel gauge does not read correctly therefore you do not know how much gas you have in the car. First time i pumped gas it stopped at 3/4 and met clicking. 2nd time pumped it never stopped and the tank over flowed. My average mpg does not go higher then 15 mile per gallon! My range shows only 250 on a full tank. Hyundai knows this is an issues and i don't believe they know how to fix it. I recommend everyone contact their local lemon law attorney and start the process if you have tried 4 or more time with hyundai to resolve this. I started my process and its looking like they have to give me 100%'of my money back and no less. Oh also excessive wind noise on driver side when driving. |
