We have been dealing personally with the peeling paint defect on our Hyundai Santa Fe for years. Despite numerous attempts to resolve the issue, we find ourselves facing consistent rejection. Our vehicle, crucial in our daily life, was not included in the specific Hyundai recall year range, leaving us without recourse and burdened by financial responsibility for a manufacturing defect.

Paint peeling isn't merely an aesthetic flaw; it affects the reliability of the vehicle, potentially leading to further deterioration. As the peeling progresses, the exposed metal is vulnerable to rust and other damages. It’s a deeper issue that compromises the integrity and value of our vehicles, an issue we should not shoulder alone.

Hyundai has acknowledged this issue in part by issuing recalls for certain model years, but the problem’s scope clearly extends beyond the recall limits, affecting owners like us who have been inadvertently overlooked. We urge Hyundai to expand their recall criteria to encompass all affected vehicles, irrespective of their manufacturing year.

This petition seeks not only to bring justice to those who've unfairly borne repair costs but also to ensure that Hyundai actively supports all their customers who are dealing with this problem. Hyundai, as a responsible manufacturer, should recognize their accountability and assist in rectifying their oversight by offering comprehensive resolutions like extending the recall, providing free repairs, or offering goodwill paint jobs.

Sign this petition to hold Hyundai accountable and demand a fair resolution for all affected Hyundai Santa Fe owners.
