Problem overview

Some Hyundai Santa Fe owners report experiencing door locking issues, which may be linked to a faulty door lock actuator that can prevent doors from locking or unlocking properly. Additionally, some owners have noted unexpected activation of emergency flashers, suggesting potential electrical wiring problems that could affect various components, including the door locks. Malfunctions in the touch sensors used for locking and unlocking the vehicle may also contribute to these issues. To effectively resolve these concerns, it is recommended that owners seek inspection and diagnostics from a qualified mechanic or Hyundai service center to identify and address the underlying problems.
