    My 2004 3.5L Santa Fe has 70,000 miles. When is the recommended
    interval for timing belt replacement?

    My 2004 3.5L Santa Fe has 70,000 miles. When is the recommended
    The recommended interval is 60k miles, however if you bought the car in
    California you may be covered under the 10 year/100k miles warranty if you
    don't replace the belt and it fails after 60k. Perhaps HyundaiTech can
    confirm this (?)

    Best to call Hyundai for the California details. The owner's manual read
    something similar to "recommended but not required in California." It'
    not clear whether that means the vehicle is currently in or registered i
    California

    Thanks for the tip. I’m not in Calif. but it still seems that I’m
    pushing the belt change a bit. I’ll get it done right away
