Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Occasionaly as i drive at night the headlights will dim, clock will flash, and the windshield wipers will slow down because the alernator will not charge the battery. occasionaly when i stop and turn the car off i will come back out to restart the car and it will not start because of the battery being dead and not being charged by the alternator. i have already had the battery and alternator replaced once on 7/26/02 and it is starting to do the same thing again. i am in contact with several other santa fe owners at www.santafeforum.net and alot of them are having the same problem.
