Santa Fe (CM - 2007-12) :: Horn Going Off By Itself?
New 2012 Santa Fe with factory remote start alarm (installed at the dealer). Had it for a few weeks now. Park it in the garage with our other vehicles. In the middle of the night I wake up to hearing a horn going off at irregular intervals for about 20 seconds. Since this was very sudden and startling to say the least, I waited to see if it would stop before running downstairs with the baseball bat . Also the alarm system on the home was not tripped so I hesitated to jump to that conclusion. So after what appeared to be 20 seconds the horn stopped and I grabbed the key fob and locked the doors twice and heard the confirmation horn beep.
Now about the horn... like i said it wasn't at regular intervals as you so often hear as car alarms have. Instead it was irregular as if someone was just sitting in it and honking the horn as they wished. Second, the horn tone sounded like the loud horn on the Santa Fe. I say this because I've come to learn that all our other vehicles parked in the garage don't have horns as loud as the Santa Fe. This distinction I clearly picked up on from day one. Now at 4 in the AM is it possible I was wrong and it was one of the other vehicles?... possibly I guess, but the likelihood is not since I've had those other vehicles for a long time and this never happened before the Santa Fe.
Santa Fe (CM - 2007-12) :: Horn Fuse Burned In Hood Relay Box
Just noticed I have no more horn... I had car alarm issues for a while and the alarm would sound all day in the parking garage while I was at work (was keeping the car unlocked at home...) Finally fixed the hood pin.
Going back to the horn, the horn fuse was burned in the hood relay box, and when I replaced it and tried the horn again, it burned again... Where to start? Do I go for new relays, new horns, new wiring or all of the above...

If you push the remote lock button twice the horn beep is very load and startling. Can this be programed for a lower volume sound?

My girlfriend went to start her car this morning only to find that it would not start and there is a click coming from the horn fuse. Went to try to jump start the car and the horn actually came on, but still would not start. I have researched a little and found this can be a common problem with the rubber bumper under the hood or caused by unlocking the door with the key and not not the remote start. She called hyndai and they suggested to charge the battery and then try to shut the alarm off with the fob.

I have a 2010 Santa fe that will sometimes not start when using the key. The starter turns just fine but the engine won't fire up. However, with the remote starter it will always start.
The vehicle is under warranty for a few more weeks but the mechanic couldn't diagnose anything because it started just fine in the shop.
Santa Fe (DM - 2013+) :: Sound From Stock Horn With Car Alarm
Every time my car alarm goes off, the horn sounds like a clown car. The kids on my 10 year old baseball team even joke about it--its that bad. So, is it just me or are y'all embarrassed when the alarm goes off?

Last Saturday and today, I drove the car to run some errands. When hot, I turned it off for 5 to 10 minutes. Then it wouldn't start, the starter was cranking strong but the engine didn't start. I tried for 15 minutes with the same result.
Then, I waited for the engine to cool for an hour, it started fine. Both times the temperature outside was around -25 Celsius.
The dealer says he can't do anything if can't replicate the problem. The car is Santa Fe V6 FWD 2011 with 44 000 km.

Santa Fe (CM - 2007-12) :: Car Would Crank 5 Seconds Before Start
It has only happened 2 times so far. I understand it's normal when it's really cold outside. But it's still warm here. I booked an appointment with dealer next week but I want to knowledge myself before going. Can this be battery? Or starter? I remember there's a common problem on my model that a oil leak will damage the starter. Will that cause this symptom?

I just bought a used 2007 Hondai santa fe. 65K. Loved it until four times when I turn key to start the car 'stumbles'. Dealer finds nothing wrong. What I notice today is I did not have my foot on the brake. My 11 yr old Subaru started w/o (not good I know) so I developed a bad habit. So now I wonder if this is not a problem but rather a safety feature and I need to always have my foot on the brake at start.

So for the last few weeks our 2007 3.3L V6 GL is having trouble starting (extended crank). Sometimes it's fine, but other times the engine just turns, so it takes 2 or 3 tries to get it to start.
Initially this seems like a fuel filter issue to me, but these fuel filters are "unserviceable", which I believe means they shouldn't ever have to be replaced (right?). I just had a servicing done at Midas, and they weren't able to tell me what the problem was.
The vehicle has 94k kms (58k miles) on it.
Santa Fe (CM - 2007-12) :: Remote Start Not Working
The 2012 SF I bought last weekend has a sticker on the radiator brace near the left head light stating the vehicle has a remote start function and there is a blue button with a key symbol on the fob that (I think) is supposed to make it work, but I have yet to get the remote start to operate. What's the secret? Is there a selection in the ECU that enables/disables it? Do I need to cross my eyes when I push the button? This would be great to have on cold or hot mornings - if I can get it to work.

Like the title says, the engine turns over but it doesn't start. Sequence is something like this:
Turn key to on.
Wait until all the lights and gongs have stopped.
Turn to start for 3 to 4 seconds.
No start.
Turn everything off and repeat 1 to 3 times.
It starts.
Santa Fe (CM - 2007-12) :: No Start After Gas Tank Topped Up
I drive a 2007 Santa Fe and my car refused to start after the last the two times I topped up my gas tank.
I am confused and not sure what it could be? Ignition and lights come on, which makes me think it's not electrical. Car also starts up fine between gas station visits. Problem comes up only immediately after I top up. I am able to start up on the second try after I wait a few seconds.
Could I have a clogged fuel line or valve?
Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: Disable Alarm Without Disabling Horn / Locks?
Since my warranty has expired, I have had a problem with my alarm regularly firing after ~10 mins of the car being locked, regardless of whether I engage the alarm or just simply lock the car. I have brought the car to a dealer to troubleshoot multiple times and they can't figure out the issue. Is there a way to disable the alarm so I can still lock the car? Currently, my only workaround is to leave the car unlocked all the time.

I recently had a new coil pack put in my 2008 Santa Fe, about a week ago. Got up for work this morning and it would not turn over. It makes the clicking noise but will not catch. I jump started it and it worked. Got out of work and it wouldn't start again, got a jump start and took it to pep boys where they tested the battery as good. Could it be a shortage somewhere from the previous work done?
