So, I’ve had a 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe GLS for a while now. transmission issues are kinda a thing, and mine started acting up after like 100k miles. oil leaks too, usually from the front seal. shifting gets rough sometimes, especially in cold weather. anyone else have a rough time with the brakes ? they feel a bit mushy sometimes. And the aircon’s been acting up, needs some freon refill.
speaking of, headlights going out too early can be a pain, right? any way to fix it?
hope you can help me out with this, my car started making this weird grinding noise last week. keeps happening when i take a left turn, any idea what that could be?
Been a 'Murican and I’ve had my fair share of headaches with the 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe 2004 GLS. Shaky suspension, electrical gremlins – nothing frigid that chilly Canadian weather ain’t made worse. Steering sometimes feels off and don’t get me started on the AC – frostier outside, chillier in-car. Fans 'cept the engine noise!
I’ve had my '04 Santa Fe GLS in Toronto for years. Love her, but she’s got quirks. Knock on wood, but those knock sensors are a pain – false warnings more than once.

I’ve owned a '04 Hyundai Santa Fe GLS here in Canada, and got hit with a few quirks early on. The AC unit was like a broken fan, barely cooling us down in the summer heat.

Overall, worth it for the space, but definitely needs love and care around these parts.
