As you can see from the attached Recall Repair Invoice the item was repaired on 6/20/22. My problem is the ABS light and the other problems associated with the repair have come on after 1 month and has stayed on all of this time. I called the dealer to see if the RECALL was a problem and they said the speed sensor in the wheel hub was the problem and may have to replace sensor or the entire hub depending on type of unit with a cost of $300.00 plus or the entire hub unit for $600.00 plus. It appears that the RECALL caused the other problem to make money for the dealer and Hyundai. The problem of bad speed sensor is also in other vehicles and is not unique to Hyundia. A friend with a Kia Sportage had the same problem 2 days after the ABS unit was installed, he had the unit replaced not think it was related to ABS RECALL, he and others I have talked with have had the same problem in a short time after replacement of ABS repair was made. I don't know if this is a safety problem but extension of the ABS RECALL and causing a problem to benefit dealers.

2018 Santa Fe Sport had been leaking a few little oil spots in my garage . First noticed the problem at about 80k miles. Took it for an oil change and the technician told us he had a lot of complaints on this model vehicle. Fast forward a few months at our next oill change (3 thousand miles later) and the technician told us we were almost completely out of oil. We took the vehicle to the Hyundai dealership and we were told there was nothing wrong, no oil leaks detected. We were then having to bring the vehicle in to the oil change place in between regularly scheduled oil changes and top off the oil (sometimes taking 3-4 quarts in between oil changes). Coming home from the ballpark a few weeks ago we exited the freeway and the vehicle started shaking and losing power and the check engine light came on. I coasted in to the gas station and checked the oil and the dipstick was bone dry (except for the oil that looked like it had burned to the dipstick). I bought / put in 2 quarts of oil and limped the vehicle home. Took the vehicle to the local Hyundai dealership and now we are being told we need a new 10k dollar engine and now that the vehicle has almost 120k miles it is no longer under warranty. Everyone I have talked to about the issue says this is a common thing for this make / model and that the engines need to be replaced. How is there not a recap for this? Any advise / assistance would be appreciated
