2002 Santa Fe abs/tcs lights stay on

Friday the Santa Fe goes in for servive to correct this problem (I hope). The service dept. says they are replacing a broken right front toner wheel. We have also been hearing a metal on metal squeal from what we think has been the right front of the vehicle. Can a broken toner wheel cause this sound? The part they ordered was the right front CV shaft. We have been hearing this sound for the past 6 months and the warning lights first showed this behavior in August. Now that winter is here we can sure use the abs.

A broken tone wheel could certainly be rubbing against something else as the vehicle moves, making such a noise, but if it was occurring prior to the lamps coming on, I doubt it's causing the noise you hear. Be sure to let the service facility know about the noise and under what circumstances it occurs.

when I had a problem with the clutch in my 04 Elantra GT.. the service writer went out with me for a short drive.. he said he felt nothing, it felt nornal.. couple months later. it still felt like it was releasing then grabbing then releasing again, so I insisted a mechanic take it out, he wasnt gone but 2 mins when he came back and said the clutch was shot.... turned out the throughout bearing was bent... I would INSIST that you go out with a mechanic so he can drive it... service writes often dont know what they are talking about and sluff ya off.. where the mechanic knows what to look for...
