Hyundai's

My Hyundai has been an excellent car since my mom got the car 12 years ago. It's been excellent with getting us to and from different places such as North Carolina and Washington,D.C

Love my santa fe

I love this santa fe, as I can see out so good in it,easy to put groceries or other stuff in the back. Have hauled a lot in it. I bought it used,but it has really been good,every thing that had been done with it,is on record ,so that is good. Someone had traded it in,and I saw it and bought it,before you had time to even get it cleaned up. The previous owner took good care of this car,and it still looks good. 2 of my daughters also had bought Santa Fe's,and I liked thiers. Mileage is about 87,000. I do not put a lot of miles on it so that is good. I don't think I would ever buy a regular car.,after having a suv,and really can't afford to trade it in anyway. I may have paid too much for it,but it has been good,.

187,000 miles and still going strong

Our 2002 Hyundai Santa Fe, just past 187,000 mile and has never fail us. We bought it new in 2002 and have been its only owner. Early in its life it was rear-ended and repaired but you could never tell.. It performs well. We now own two Hyundais!

Solid. Very Reliable!

At times I feel as if I want to complain about this suv because it's a little on the plain side (2002 was the year before they started putting all cool toys on them, no Nav Sys, Backup camera & the radio came w/only a cd & cassette player!) but then I remember how little money I've actually spent repairing it and I realize I can't complain. :) The "Slap Shift" feature plus the 10y/100k mile warranty was the selling point for me on this as my very first new vehicle. I use the slap shift all the time to power into and across heavy traffic. Instantaneous response and it has never let me down! Tough little midsize suv. Sturdy. Stable. Comfortable. Enough room with the back seat down to haul almost anything you would want or for a person plus 2 lg dogs to sleep comfortably on long road trips. It powers around corners with no fear of tip overs. I have the more powerful V6 4WD (all-time all wheel drive) version. Have never had any engine, transmission or rear differential problems with it. (2002 Santa Fe with 120k. I have always set the parking brake when parking before releasing the brake pedal. A habit leftover from my standard shift car days which I'm told is an excellent habit.) It's also awesome in snow! Runs like an energizer bunny! I have powered over packed snow piles and through massive snow drifts (massive for Ohio). During one blizzard this was only one of a handful of vehicles in the neighborhood that could navigate the over 2' of unplowed snow. My only complaints would be about what I consider slightly poor gas mileage. It averages about 20/22mpg highway within legal limits. It's sweet spot seems to be around 85/90mph where it will do 25/26mpg Hwy. Also, the Santa Fe's all seem to have the same body rust spot over the rear wheel well. Over all an excellent vehicle! Every mechanic I have ever spoken to says they very rarely see the '02 era Santa Fe's in for repair. Would always recommend this vehicle to someone looking for a reliable used suv!! :)

The best car ever

I've owned a Toyota Camery, Honda Accord. Volvo240 Station Wagon, Ford Granada, Chevrolet,Nova, and a Dodge Volt. Each car was purchased brand new.Not one of the cars named lasted more than four years with scheduled maintenances. Some only three years. My Hyundai Santa Fe Is the best car that I have owned. I brought this car brand new in 2002, it is 2016 and my car is still running g beautifully and very comfortably. My next car will be a Hyundai!!!

Best car I've ever had! 15 yr old car.

Never had any major problems (mechanical or otherwise) until now, so I cannot complain. Repairs I am doing now is from normal wear & tear of this super auto.great mileage even after 14 yrs.

Santa Fe Lover

I love my vehicle.but wish my rear seats would fold onto themselves. Also would be better if front seat would fold down also, as I am a hauler. Surprising how much I can actually haul in my SUV.

Fanta Fe

I purchased my Hyundai Santa Fe new in 2001. I have worked for GM for over 12 years and bought several GM vehicles during that period. However, Hyundai is the ONLY vehicle I would buy again. Could use a new paint job but other than that, I will keep u the repairs and drive it for another 15 years!

The best vehicle I have ever owned. I have never kept a vehicle this long (2002 - 2016). I have had no significant problem.

Same as above
