The Hyundai Santa Fe's electronic parking brake has had issues reported by owners across several years, from 2007 to 2010. Problems include the brake not remaining engaged, leading to instances of serious injury. Even after turning off the engine, putting the car in park, and activating the emergency brake, some vehicles have been observed to roll backwards. In one instance, a driver expressed concern because their young child was able to move the gear shift to neutral while the vehicle was off, resulting in both the child and the car rolling into oncoming traffic. There have also been cases where both the emergency brake and regular brakes failed to work at highway speeds. Additionally, some drivers have experienced parking brake malfunctions at under 30,000 miles on the odometer.
