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

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
