A flashing check engine light on a 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe is an urgent warning.

2024 Hyundai Santa Fe Check Engine Light Codes

Common engine-light codes on a 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe include P0420 (catalyst system efficiency), P0171/P0174 (fuel trim/system lean), P0300–P0304 (random or cylinder-specific misfires), and P0130–P0167 (oxygen sensor circuits). Each code has cost and drivability implications: for example, leaving P0420 untreated can lead to catalytic converter damage and significantly higher repair costs; ignoring P030 misfires can cause poor performance, increased fuel consumption, and possible engine damage. At Coggin Deland Hyundai we translate codes into clear repair plans and highlight how fixing problems early delivers immediate savings (better mpg, fewer breakdowns) and long-term value (longer component life, preserved resale value). Our certified technicians in Deland, FL use OEM replacement parts, factory diagnostic tools, and calibrated repair procedures to ensure accuracy and reliability.
