We have a new Santa Fe …
We have a new Santa Fe … About six months old that has a very long crack in the windshield. Disappeared out of nowhere… we literally went to the car get in the car and noticed a giant split horizontally across most of the windshield. After further inspection there seems to be a very small impact mark without any chipping. Assuming it’s from a small stone etc., although we don’t recall any impact loud enough to create any kind of concern. I don’t know the science behind it but we have many many cars that have been hit by stones and rocks and even have had chips in them, none of which resulted in such severe cracking like we see on our Santa Fe. We took it in the Hyundai and they said there’s nothing they can do to cover it because of the impact mark. They said it was not safe to have a crack like that and get it repaired immediately, so we need to make an insurance claim. Unfortunately will have to do that due to some of the lane assist technology built into the window, but we’re asking/hoping we don’t have to use Hyundai glass again. Obviously this is happening enough to have folks file a class action lawsuit. I’m not sure if that lawsuit is only for the Palisade, but if anybody else is having a problem with the Santa Fe i’d like to know in case Santa fe’s are not covered under the Palisade suit.
