no... as much as possible, mas ok for me na makita na maging maayos ang pakikitungo ng mga members sa isat isa... respetuhan lang ika nga...

O.T. lang po....

Ha, ha, ha! That was a funny video. Nice peace offering, sir eddiebauer. Hope that we just keep all threads as objective and genuinely informative as much as possible. I know that may be difficult to attain as we are all not perfect........akin to what other tsikoteers had said that there ain't no perfect cars. PEACE TO ALL TSIKOTEER FAMILY MEMBERS!!!!!!!!

Sir, paano po explanation dun sa mga ibang threads na nasisirang mga SUV, daming cases na naitala dun. Sa tingin nyo ba hindi naging praktikal yung mga bumili nung mga nasiraang kotse? Akala ko pa naman subok na yung mga brand nila. Yung sa friend ko ang astig ng SUV nya, kaso mahina daw preno, nasira agad yung hydraulics sa tailgate. Aling brand ba sa 500k price bracket ang hindi sirain sir? Balak ko rin magdagdag pang daily commute sana. Naging praktikal naman po ako kasi may house n lot na kami.

Sir, agree naman po ako na walang perfect na kotse. lahat yan may pwedeng masira sa loob lang ng 5 years pero hindi yung tipong pabalik balik ka ng casa para ipagawa. Ito po kasi ang nabasa ko sa ibang forums tungkol sa hyundai cars dito sa tsikot. Kaya kung ganito, mas maganda po kung masubukan muna bago bumili kaya mas maganda yung mura muna tulad ng getz. Kapag okay ang performance ng getz after 5 years so okay na. sa akin okay lang magantay ng bagong modelo na sigurado na. malinaw na po ba sir?

nabasa ko po pala ngayon yung 1.5M peso SUV Comparo sa CAR COMPARISONS. Lumalabas po talaga dun n parang godsend na ang santa fe kaya no wonder na kapag ito ang topic maraming nagrereact. Subukan nyo pong basahin yung page 7. hehehe funny lang.

peace po tayo mga sirs

ang labo at todo off topic ka naman e, di naman hyundai cars in general ang topic e kundi Hyundai Santa Fe puro Hyundai tinitira mo e, kesyo ganto sabi ng ibang forum maging specific ka naman, di ka na nga nakakatulong, sinasayang mo pa purpose ng thread na to


nakaroon kaba ng problema dati sa Hyundai o ngayon? kasi dapat imbes na tirahin mo ng tirahin ang Hyundai pakita mo yung ibang threads na may sinasabing problema para magtulungan tayong maayos ang problem diba? online community tayo e hindi laitan ng kotse o brand

[DragonHeart]

everyone should have an open mind when purchasing a vehicle because there is not perfect vehicle not even the most expensive, limited edition, handcrafted vehicle is perfect there will always be problems and faults because of human error... this forum is about bringing out information so that the viewing public will know what is happening and so that the information will guide or aide them in their purchase... time and time again I have read people bashing Hyundai and even the Santa Fe because it is Korean... its as if the only car manufacturer worthy of selling vehicles is Toyota because of what some people claim to be a problem free vehicle... if Toyota is so great then why do they have this problem

sorry mods if this is off-topic... if you want a perfect vehicle why not buy the FJ Cruiser like in the link I provided, its really a worry free vehicle...

[scharnhorst]

nako, a couple of the guys here are really asking to get banned.

Maybe some of the Santa Fe owners can post their current mileages, as well as any mechanical problems (or even just pet peeves) that they have encountered during their ownership of the vehicle.

Perhaps we can scrape up just enough objectivity to salvage this thread. Cool lang, mga guys, flaming another person's opinions or ride isn't worth getting banned for

Kung singled out sa yo ang Hyundai cars being problematic based on your experience and browsing the hyundai threads. Then, I suggest you do browse the other threads concerning other brands. Magugulat ka same din mababasa mo. Pabalik balik din sila sa casa. Yan ang reality about the fact that there are no perfect vehicle. If you think only hyundai brands ang pabalik balik sa casa, you are mistaken. One more thing, the topic is SF d ba, let's stick to authentic problems any tsikoteer would post about the title. Santa Fe Recall.
You are trying to justify buying a less expensive vehicle to be a wise practice. I don't agree with you. Who in their right mind would risk 500k pesos just to see the outcome in 5 years or wouldn't mind wasting their hard earned money? You contradict yourself, sa getz na mura, okay lang maghintay ng 5 years? SF being 3x expensive, not worth the risk? Kung sirain pareho, talo ka pa rin, mura man o mahal nabili mo. Kung ang suggestion mo e maghintay ng 5 years for every new model bago bumili, e di laging old model ang ride mo,.Bakit pa ko bibili e may next gen model na by that time.
Lastly, care to enlighten us on w/c upcoming new model ang sigurado. Kaya nga new. How would anyone know for a fact na walang magiging recalls? Wait another 5 years?????

Binasa ko nga uli sir yung page 7. 3 months ago na pala yun. I think it's a sad episode when people attack one another over a car. But I was glad to read the post by pup2 at the lower part of the page. A very wise comment if I may say so. Pls do check it out again. I agree with him all the way, I hope you do too.

This thread is completely unsalvageable.

It was started by a member who does nothing but trash Hyundais in other threads, and it's kept alive by other members who have nothing to do but fight with people online, and others who have a bone to pick with Korean cars in general.

And, as a lot of us mentioned, time and again... the topic is misleading, and the units involved in the said recall were either the generation I Santa Fe (never sold locally) or a tiny number of US-assembled Santa Fes which were never sold and will never be seen in the Philippines.

As such, it's weird that it's still a sticky... since all stickied recalls refer specifically to Philippine market vehicles.

I've already complained to one or two moderators, and I'm surprised that it's still pinned to the top of the page, instead of being left to rest with the rest of the regular threads, which include numerous threads regarding recalls of other brands from other countries.

[caloyski5]

bakit hindi pa un-stickied ito?

[Memphis Raines]

Niky - I guess you win the bet this thread is here to stay..

[niky]

Hahaha... where's my TCash?

Hahaha... where's my TCash?

I'll wire it to you as soon as I reach the amount I only have 1,500 left, spent it on some chicks :naughty2:

Mukhang may gera dito sa Thread na ito ha. Cool lang mga barako! At least informed lang ang mga readers dito.

[C190]

We aren't arguing that you have no right to post this information. Indeed, it's good to be informed.

The debate is whether or not this should be a sticky.

A thread is stickied if the problem is major enough to warrant concern for local consumers. Such has happened with the thread about Toyota D4D problems, which has affected dozens of buyers of Toyota Diesels, both on tsikot and out in the real world.

That's also the case with the Honda Civic cam position sensor problems and the Innova rear driveshaft recall, which directly affect Filipino consumers.

There is no sticky, however, regarding CRV fires... there is a recall defect on US CRVs which cause them to catch fire due to a mis-specced oil filter.

There is also numerous Toyota recalls in the US, which, though people post them here... are NOT stickied, because they have absolutely nothing to do with local Toyota owners.

Now, if this thread were about Hyundai Starex aircon problems or transmission problems, it would deserve to be a sticky.

The recalls listed in your links refer to the previous generation Santa Fe, which was never sold here.

The other recall pertains to 2006 Santa Fes built in the US only. Also not sold here... and, as stated, none of the affected units were sold to customers.

Neither of these recalls affect current or future owners of Santa Fes in the Philippines. Not at all.

Thus, this thread doesn't need to be stickied. The fact that it still is is quite perplexing to me.

up.........

[C190]

Well, making this thread still open or even making it a sticky is very misleading to potential Santa Fe buyers who might think that there's a REAL recall for units being sold here.

How many people have just seen the title of this thread without opening the links posted and reading carefully (as what Horsepower did)?

The said recall was made over a year ago.

im removing this thread from the sticky list... im also closing this thread.
