Great Vehicle

This vehicle has never let me down. As it gets older a few things need to be done outside of regular maintenance. I will be buying a new Hyundai when the time comes to retire this vehicle. It may not be a Santa Fe but it will be a Hyundai.

17-year 'love affair' with my '04 Santa Fe

I am the original owner of my '04 Santa Fe (since October 2004) and have enjoyed every day of dependable, comfortable driving; I have and still am very confident that the vehicle will perform exceptionally well in all types of weather and roads. By the way, I also purchased as the original owner a 2002 Santa Fe (I still drive it) and was so impressed with the performance that when an additional vehicle was needed in 2004 I immediately thought of purchasing a second Santa Fe in 2004. Both have been very dependable.

A oldie but a goodie

I have had this car for 17 yrs. It still in great shape,I have not had any major issues besides the normal breaksand tire repair on it. I make sure that I get it in every 3,000 miles for a oil change. Most dependable car I have ever had. I know one of these days it will give out but until then I'm not getting rid of it.

Hyundai Santa Fe going strong at 17 years

My 2004 Sante Fe has been the most dependable vehicle I've ever owned. Never left me stranded. Only repairs are normal things. Still has original exhaust, transmission, power window motors...the only thing I've needed is a new air conditioner. Everything else normal wear and tear.

Hyun Dai 2004 Santa Fe

This had been one of the most dependable, least expensive, intuitive, non complicated, well performing vehicle I have owned. Inexpensive to drive and own and ready to go when you are. All weather capable.

Great SUV

Wonderful car - didn't give me any major problems for a long time. The only thing is the minute it hits 130,000 miles, prepare that you will be paying a $2000 bill for repairs. I would recommend it.

Great Car

We are original owners of a 2004 Santa fe. This car has been virtually maintenance free other than basic oil changes, etc. Has 150k miles an is extremely reliable and has taken us in travels to many western states and east of the Rockies. Been a great family car.

Reliability.

Best vehicle I have ever owned and I’m 77 years old. Would like a new Sante Fe but they are too expensive for me. The vehicle is very comfortable and handles nicely. Highway driving is a pleasure in the Sante Fe.

2004 Hyundai Santa Fe V-6 AWD

Bought it 2nd hand with 24,000 miles, now has 81,000. Brakes were replaced once, exhaust system piping repaired once. Other than that it has been amazing in it's dependability, gas mileage, road handling, steering, comfort, load capacity, visibility...all excellent. The most important feature to me is the intuitive design of the no-nonsense dashboard. Many people want a lot of "junk" on the steering wheel and dash board which, to me, is a distraction and unnecessary for safe driving and transportation. The controls makes it easy to operate them without taking your eyes off the road.

Love my Santa Fe

I bought this new in 2004. I always took care of the oil changes and maintainence and guidelines. I have never had a problem. There was a recall on the gas tank , that Betten notified me about and they took care of very quickly. I would buy another Santa Fe

2004 Hyundai Santa Fe

Almost 200,000 miles and still goes like hell. Outside of normal wear out parts, this has been a very reliable vehicle and per the ads back when, handles the lousy after winter pot hole filled roads around here very well.

'TOUGH' little SUV

These earlier models run steady if taken care of. Plenty of room for people.Trunk space is huge for an SUV, but with the row seat down, you are ready do some moving. Despite it's age, there's plenty of features to make life easier.

15 years old and still runs like a Swiss watch

This car has over 125,000 miles on it and it is still going strong. In the second half of the ninth year of the warranty the power steering went out and Hyundai honored the ten year warranty. The car is as peppy as ever and a pleasure to drive. Whoever gets this car as a used car when and if we decide to trade will be getting a real gem.

2004 Santa Fe

Love my 2004 Santa fe, wish they still made the cars that way. I have passed the 2004 down to my son and now drive a 2015 Tucson, but my heart is still with the Santa Fe, wish you still made them that way. Just the right size and built to last, never had any trouble with it and its over 100,000 miles and still going strong.. I might add that my son is a rough driver and has had the car for 3 1/2 years and it still runs great!! Thanks Hyundai for making a car that lasts.. If you would bring this body style back with some updates I would trade the Tucson and go back to a Santa Fe again.

Loving my Santa Fe

It might be 14 years old but it has lived in 6 states has driven me all over the place and has caused me absolutely not one problem. I had an a/c problem in the beginning but it was addressed and fixed. I love my Hyundai.

It's been a great car

I have had my Hyundai for 14 yrs. Have not had any major trouble with it. I just got back from taking it to Iowa, Illinois, and Michigan. It's been a very trustworthy car. Love my Hyundai. I will buy another one when I'm ready for a new one.
