When I went to check out the santa fe I was waiting to be disappointed... I even tried to find something wrong with it. Well I found something alright. It was a SUV that is well worth your money. My wife loved it from the get go... not me I didn't like the styling and the cloth seats were very uncomfortable. but the leather seats changed all that. other than those minor hang ups the vehicle is closely compared to a lexus. I use to be a valet ... I've driven everything and know whats if it's worth the cash. so if you are to drop some coin on this SUV might as well get it with all the bells and whistles...do not settle!!!! oh and with all the saftey features your insurance should go down to. I don't normaly rave about cars but you get a lot for what you pay for...and you don't pay that much. well done hyundia!
Critical Review
Despite proper maintenance and oil changes I find myself 15K miles out of warranty with a bad engine. My research found that Hyundai extended the warranty, due to engine failure, for 2011-2012 Sonata's but not Santa Fe's despite the fact that the engine is made at the same plant! Don't buy 2011 or 2012 Santa Fe's or Sonata's! My mother's 2011 Sonata, with 68K miles, just blew up last week.

Purchased new Nov 2006 and well maintained ever since. Has been a great car for a great price. Overall, the vehicle has performed well. With 140,000 miles on it now, it has had some issues that the dealership service dept cannot resolve. Our dealership did provide free loaner car while the car is in their service dept for all work that took longer. Continuing to pursue the problem at other Hyundai dealerships to see if the issue can be uncovered.
This is still in very good driving condition, no accidents, only service the vehicle, once redid the alternator, other wear and tear to the struts etc but overall very happy with its performance
Absolutely wonderful car
No cons
This is my third Sante Fe . I absolutely love this car . I’ve had absolutely no issues with these cars ! I now have a 2011 Sante Fe limited . It has 134 , 000 Miles and still no issues . Great car !!
Style is timeless, seat heaters
Gas mileage
The Tuscon was my first choice until I arrived at the dealership and passed the 2007 Santa Fe... it was love at first sight 💝. 17 years later, I'm still in love with my car as Day One. About $8,000 over 240k miles in major repairs for radiator, control arm, leaky gasket into alternator, and O2 sensor. My Santa Fe has been very good to me 👏👏👏

Looking for a 4-door sedan type, automatic transmission, good condition, no underbody rust, especially rocker panels and fenders.
Had a few things very recently changed and maintenance work done to it plugs wires manifold gasket rotors pads callipers
Comfortable car
Not reliable
I wouldn’t pay more then 2500 for a nice one spent 5000$ on the one I bought and have had nothing but mechanical issues consistently.
