It's a great little suv

I love this little suv , it handles well and is very comfortable . I take senior citizens around in it and they have no trouble getting in or out of it. The interior is very roomy and comfortable as well , love the visibility as too . This is a very comfortable suv that acts like a car . I would love to be able to afford a new one . The only thing that is troublesome is that I am at 155,00.00 miles and am having to have some major repairs like the air compressor / idol / tension arm / radiator / some very large ticket items and I was hoping it would last a few more miles before needing all of these things . Don't get me wrong I love this little suv but the repairs now are not as much fun . If I could get a really good deal on another used one I would be really interested in that for sure.

An oldie but a goodie.

Yes, I know my car is getting on in years. 2005 was a while ago. So far. Though, no major issues. Granted it is fairly low miles(<80,000) but still comfortable and looks great. Runs very well with regular maintenance.

Dependable

I have had my vehicle for twelve years. I have kept up the service and it has been a great vehicle. When I'm ready to get another vehicle I will definitely come back here.

Great Car

I have had this car now for 11 years almost 12, have changed out 2 sensors and AC Compressor. And all the regular maintenance that is required for any car. I will be back when I need another car. Love the style of this one, all the new ones look like every other car on the road. What happened to making your cars stand out on the road. Do Not like that the new Santa Fe looks like the Chevy SUV.

Love my Hyundai Santa Fe!

I've had my Hyundai Santa Fe for 12 years. I love her so much I don't want a new vehicle. She has over 227,000 miles and she keeps taking care of me! Good road clearance for snow, great stability and sooooo easy to drive. Best SUV ever!

@ 12 Years Still Going Strong

I have had my Santa Fe since 2005. I had bought it brand new. Twelve years later, as in flash forward to right now, it is still going strong at more than 160K miles.

A Great Buy

This has been the most reliable vehicle I have ever had. I bought it in 2005 and have put very little money into it with the exception of oil, tires and break adjustments. It has 113,000 miles on it and nothing that I can see will prevent it from going another 113. The 10-year warranty was a deciding factor. It was wise of Hyundai to offer that, because in the time I have had the Santa Fe, I only used the warranty once and that was for a very minor issue.
