Radio Reception Problems in Santa Fe
I have had the Santa fe GLS for more than 2 years and I continue to be very
unhappy with the radio reception. My other car (a chrysler sebring) does not have similar problems. Huyndai has tried to fix it but cannot find a/the problem. Is anybody else experiencing this? Is it simply something that cannot be rectified given the way the antenna is built into the rear window? Thanks, Klaus |

Re: Radio Reception Problems in Santa Fe
Well I don't know what the problem is either cause I had the same factory
radio in my Accent that my girlfriend has in her Santa Fe and the reception is definitly poorer in the latter.

Re: Radio Reception Problems in Santa Fe
About a month ago my radio was take over by martains..... as I am
listening to sports talk show, it changes to CD1 and no audio, then back to radio with loads of static. If I turn off the radio, it comes back on at full blast without notice & not immediately. When it is in CD1 mode you cannot turn it off. So yesterday in 19 minutes I got a new one & all sounds great!

Re: Radio Reception Problems in Santa Fe
Just for my own curiousity, is it AM or FM or both? I have an XG350, and
I'll almost bet they are the same radio. The FM is pretty good, but the AM is a worthless piece of junk. You can almost build a crystal radio like we used to have as kids, and get better reception. The Koreans must not have broadcast 550 to 1700 khz AM in their country. It has to be either that or engineer that designed it never went past third grade or studied electronics.. My AM on a 5000 watt station receives about 5 miles. Gary |
Re: Radio Reception Problems in Santa Fe
Well I have to say we don't listen to the farm reports much (AM) but I had
the same radio in my Accent and definitely got better reception than in the girlfriends Santa Fe, and now I have a Golf and it's head and shoulder above her Santa Fe for radio reception but that's comparing apples and oranges. It must be the antenna or something in the Santa Fe that is the problem.
