Hyundai Santa Fe paint peeling issue likely due to inadequate primer after roof repaint on Hyundai Santa Fe

Some Hyundai Santa Fe owners report experiencing significant paint peeling issues, which they attribute to inadequate primer application during roof repainting. This widespread problem has been observed on various models, with paint peeling off surfaces such as the hood, doors, bonnet, fenders, and roof. Many owners have noted that the paint is peeling down to the primer on the front of the hood, highlighting serious concerns about paint adhesion. Hyundai has acknowledged these defects, leading to a recall for certain Santa Fe vehicles affected by the improper paint application process. Additionally, a class action lawsuit claims that the paint used on these vehicles is defective and prone to premature peeling. In response to these issues, Hyundai has extended warranties for specific models exhibiting peeling or bubbling paint, particularly in white areas of the vehicle.
