Known issues on the 2011 Santa Fe. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers the rear brake calipers: on vehicles built from September 28 through November 25, 2010, some of the rear brake calipers may not have been properly machined, and as a result brake fluid will leak, followed by illumination of the malfunction indicator light. The second is an equipment recall from Curt Manufacturing covering tow package wiring harnesses, part number 55538, which connect tow vehicle lighting circuits to trailer lighting circuits; without the circuit protection, the module can overheat, possibly resulting in a fire. The third covers the brake light switch, where failure to illuminate the stop lamps during braking or an inability to disengage the cruise control is the reported concern. Owners have filed 268 complaints for the year and Hyundai has issued 96 technical service bulletins. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.
From tracing a rear brake fluid leak to testing a stop lamp switch or working through a scheduled service, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2011 Santa Fe.
