The 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe is equipped with a timing chain. It is recommended to replace the coolant every 60,000 miles, while the air filter should be changed between 15,000 to 30,000 miles. Spark plugs typically need to be replaced every 100,000 miles, but if using a copper spark plug, it should be changed every 30,000 miles. Potential engine issues may arise, such as a loose gasket needing to be tightened, spark plug misfiring, oil leaks that require immediate attention, possible excessive oil consumption necessitating earlier oil changes, and the serious risk of engine overheating leading to fire hazards and potential car explosions.
