  • Why is there white, crusty buildup on my Santa Fe’s battery post?

This buildup — known as corrosion — can impede the flow of electricity and cause a range of issues, from poor performance to premature battery failure.
  • What do I do about corrosion on my Santa Fe car battery? Regularly inspecting and cleaning your battery terminals will help keep your Santa Fe’s electrical system running smoothly. Before cleaning, reference your owner’s manual for instructions on how to disconnect the battery cables.
