Remove this ad Hi, Got a 2007 Santa-Fe 2.2L deisel, clutch failed a few months back and ever since the warranty replacement I have had the ESP warning light coming on about 15 minutes into a journey. Hyundai dealer had a look at a few times and recommend that I get the wheels alligned, as it MIGHT fix it. I am thinking they should have done wheel allignment when re-building the car with the new clutch - can anyone confirm this ? Surely drive shafts would have been removed ans ball joints disconnected ?? I am not chuffed with the level of service form the dealer. Any comments or advice ?

Have them do that instead of wasting your time with actions that 'might' fix it. Santa Fe -- It doesn't get any better than this!

(Duh, so it will just happen again, won't it ?). I will book it back in for them to look at it again after New Year. Does it mean the ABS doesnt work when the ESP OFF light is on ? Graeme

As far as I know, the anti-lock brakes will still function normally. Santa Fe -- It doesn't get any better than this!

I live in Yorkshire and have had three Santa Fé s serviced over nine years (well over 250,000 miles worth!) mainly at Horbury Bridge near Wakefield and they are VERY good. 8 cylinders are twice as much fun as 4
