Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have the same complaint as many santa fe owners. problems of acceleration at 40, along with shifting issues. on several trips to the dealer, leaving the car there for sometimes 7-15 days at a time. it has had 4 throttle position sensors, an alternator and 2 batteries. my mileage is 100,386 and the vehicle needs 3000.00 worth of transmission work. hyundai simply states my vehicle is out of warranty and these issues do not have anything to do with my transmission. i have a signed statement from the transmission shop manager that states a tps problem absolutely will affect the transmission. *nm
