Love it! Wish I could afford a newer version. Someday!

This is my 4th Hyundai; I have owned 3 new ones. My 2014 was totaled last year. I'm retired so can't afford a car payment & bought my 2005 SantaFe for 4k. Love it - will upgrade sometime soon. Thanks

It's the perfect size for me.

I absolutely love my Santa Fe! It's got the right amount of oomph I need. Perfect in storage space, passenger room and quite frankly I love how it drives. I don't have any conplaints about this car at all.

Immediate live affair!

This review is based on my first experience with My Santa Fe. I loved it from the beginning . With back problems the comfort of the drivers seat was great! I sat in other parts of the car as well. The feel of the ride was smooth . It had great pick up. It was 2005 so it was nicely equipped for a 2005 vehicle. The vehicle has held up very well.

Oldie but a goodie

I've had this car for a good long time, bought it new back in 2005. It's reliable, easy to fix, handles well and has a great speaker system (important!). Holds a good amount of cargo and handles snow and off road conditions great.

Great Ride. Feels solid driving. Convenient

Very good and reliable overall. We do have an intermittent braking problem the dealer could not find even after explaining in detail , ABS engages and or hydraulics don’t braking at slow speeds 15-20 mph on wet or uneven roads. See 2004 exiter crack problem. We took in 5 times dealer not able to discover. It’s gonna take pulling exiter to find and it started happening within 1st year. If you purchase a 2005 or earlier Santa Fe make sure to have exiter ring checked for cracks. Drive it at 15.20 mph on a slope and ride brake to a stop. It usually triggers then.

The best car all the way

Since the moment I bought it. The car never had any issue. Almost 13 years and the car is running without any problem. So if you are thinking to buy a car please don’t hesitate the Hyundai StaFe is the right for you.

I am the greatest fan of your Santa Fe model. I've been a loyal leasee and buyer since 2001. From a manual stickshift to the 3 row automatic with the panoramic roof, heated/cooled everything - these vehicles have performed well and are very reliable. I will always be a Hyundai Santa Fe fan. I have 3 vehicles and am looking to buying another one in the near future. Go Santa Feers!!! Great - Reliable - SUV :)

2005 Santa Fe

I love my Santa Fe. I don't drive it much, just close to home but it's been very reliable. It has a nice smooth ride. It's 12+ years old and I still have original brakes and tires. I take it in usually every 6 months even if I don't have many miles on it.

Santa Fe is my forever vehicle

Do you recall as a young person that your vehicle Was your everything well now I am70 years old ,I bought this car in 2005 a brand new Santa Fe and IT STILL LOOKS AND RIDES BRAND NEW! TRY ONE ON !! The Santa Fe is reliable looks good and it measures up to anything on the road right now and this is a 13 year old vehicle it still looks and runs sharp when the time comes I will replace it with another Santa Fe without a doubt I recently became handicapped so my wife is now the driver and I am the Passenger now there is a heartbreaker but it is just as great looking out the passenger window as it was looking out the driver side window AND because of the design and interior room I can still comfortably get in and out of the car stepping up to the comfortable seats if you’re looking for a midsize SUV a good front wheel or 4 Wheel Dr. car consider to Santa Fe you’d be doing yourself a favor and I think you’ll agree with me 100%

One of the best vehicles owned.

Overall, this is an excellent rating for the 2005 Hyundai's Santa Fe. So it's highly recommended for performance, reliability, body, 4-wheel during inclement weather traversing up and down roads. My vehicle is still a favorite among other small SUVs.

Keeping this car maintained

This vehicle is over twelve years old, oil changes, tire rotation has been a blessing. Taking this vehicle to the dealership has proven after 12200 it will continue to run in excellent shape. Will return

Dependable SUV

Initially bought this vehicle for my wife after having done a lot of research on dependability and safety. Purchased this as a used one owner vehicle from a dealership. Initial owner had performed all maintenance and after having owned it for the last 7+ years it has performed flawlessly and has needed only basic maintenance. Would definitely consider this vehicle again.

It's reliable.

This is the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. It's nearing 100,000 miles and l3 years without any needs beyond scheduled servicing. When I bought it I had hoped it would last as long as I was alive and fit to drive, and I haven't been disappointed.

Great service.

My 2005 Santa Fe was an excellent choice when I first bought it in 2005. It has given me great driving, and it has not given me any problems since the one I had while visiting in this area...Am I a Hyundai for life, you bet I am....I own a 2010 Sonata and it has also given me great driving.....you need to buy Hyundai to see what great vehicles they are.
