2003 Hyundai Sant Fe

I love this car. It gets good gas mileage, great on and off road, and never had a problem with it. I call it my Soccer dad car and the kids fit perfectly inside. I would recommend the Santa Fe new and old to anyone with a family or looking to start a family.

Best Car Ever

I really did not want to buy a new car in 2003. I wanted to wait until I was closer to my retirement (2008). It was, without a doubt, the best buy I have ever made. I worked the Graveyard shift and did a lot of uphill driving in the snow and ice. Never had a bit of trouble driving during winter. The All-Wheel Drive was outstanding. I always felt safe in this car. The Santa Fe is now 15 years old, and it was the best investment I have ever made. It drives and handles like a dream. I think this car will outlast me. LOL

2003 Santa Fe

Great car... minimal repairs needed in 15 years. The car has only had the required service on the recommended mileage markers and has had the recommend replacements to keep it functioning in good condition. Just had an axial replaced and spark plugs at 120,000 miles.

Best Car I Have Owned

My 2003 Hyundai Santa Fe is the best and most reliable car I have owned during my lifetime. In fact I am so fond of it that I dread having to buy a new car to replace it, so I keep relying on the service people at Planet Hyundai to keep it running for me. The only improvement I can think of is the gas mileage.

Great

I have a 2003 Santa Fe that I love. I have hauled all sorts of things in my Santa Fe. It's comfortable for passengers. Lots of leg room in back seat. Did have a/c issues but finally they were resolved.

Hyundai Santa Fe - Built To Last!

The Hyundai Santa Fe 2003 is built to last SUV. I had this SUV for last 15 years with no issue and regular maintenance. Also, it was reasonable priced compared to other SUVs in the market at that time. We are very happy with the SUV!

2003 Hyundai

I purchased the vehicle new and it still runs like a new car because I do the service, and I have so much confidence in the dealer's service garage where I purchased the vehicle. Good product and just as important, good maintenance, has never let me down.

2004 Santa Fe

I am the original owner. I take care of my car, and in turn my car takes care of me. The property is always clean, good coffee and I feel safe behind the wheel especially after service received at McCombs.

My 2003 Santa Fe

I love my Hyundai Santa Fe. That's why I still have it. My goal is to get it to 300,000 miles and it will make it for sure. I love the way it drives and rides and what I can do with the vehicle. It's the perfect size for me. Once I reach my mileage goal, chances are I will buy a new Santa Fe.

Santa Fe AWD

Over 238,000 miles on this car and it has been exceptionally reliable. I have driven this vehicle during snow, ice, and rain storms, also including Hurricanes. Coastal to Mountains and everything in between. I'm a Plant Engineering Supervisor at a local Hospital and the Santa Fe has never let me down. I need to respond quickly to Emergency Call-Outs for the Hospital's infrastructure and I have no worries about my travels.

Love, Love, my car! It has been the best car I"ve ever owned.

When I purchased my 2003 Hynduai Sante Fe from the dealer Park Place Lexus it had 25,000 miles . I curently have 170,000 miles. I've owed alot of vehicles in my lifetime but, overall this vehicle is very well built with the exception of the air conditioning. I had to replace blower switch 4 times not built very well. The blower twice , compressor, and condenser.

It’s a 2003 with 270000+ miles on it and it’s still running. Mostly just regular maintenance done on it and it runs fine. It’s been a well running reliable car. When I shopped for my last car I looked at hyundai again. Bought another one 2014 and Lov it also!
