2019 Hyundai Santa Fe issues with cold weather

Asked by Kalen Jan 28, 2019 at 11:14 AM about the 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My wife just got a 2019 Santa Fe 3 months ago(brand new)
and it would not start this morning. I live in northern
Minnesota so it's been pretty cold these last few weeks.
But even at 30 below on previous occasions it never even
hesitated. Cut to this morning at 5 below and it was
completely dead. Key fob wouldn't even unlock doors. Had
to call a tow truck to come jump start her since I'm at work
and he says this is a common issue for all new push button
vehicles. They will just randomly die in the cold. He got it
jumped, left, then the vehicle died again in the driveway
while idleing. Is this a common issue?? Is there a remedy?
