why does my 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe intermittently not start.

Asked by Paul Apr 06, 2020 at 05:14 PM about the 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe 2.4L GLS AWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe some times won't start but the starter is spinning
along just fine. It just doesn't engage the gear until after numerous tries, then it
starts right up strong as ever. What could be causing this?
