2008 Reliabilty

The vehicle was originally purchased in 2008 for personal and business use. The car has exceeded my expectations. It now has 210,000 miles and has had minimum repairs. I would definitely purchase another Hyundai,.

Love my Santa Fe

My Santa Fe is almost 10 years old and I still love it. Over the course of the past 10 years, my service has been minimal and my truck has been very reliable. My husband said I should think about trading it in for a new Santa Fe, but there is nothing wrong with mine and I can't justify getting a new one right now, but when I do, it will be another Santa Fe from Fuccillo.

It's been a great car

After 10 years, I would expect some things to break and they have, but overall it has been the most reliable car I've ever owned. It is very spacious and handles very well. The ride is smooth and quiet. Sure, some of the tech is a little outdated, but it is such a good car, I can deal without having a backup camera and Bluetooth. I doubt I will trade it in for a while. Someone would have to make me a really good deal for me to part with it.

One of the best vehicles I have owned

First, I am impressed with the company itself. Hyundai goes out of their way to make sure that not only you are driving a good vehicle but when your vehicle is serviced they do follow-ups to make sure you received quality care. This is the first company that I have felt truly cares about their customers' experiences and follow through. I bought my vehicle new, and when I was shopping the cars they showed the process of actually building it. My vehicle was assembled in Oklahoma; which for me was important. It had a few more options than I had expected and the only "flaws" were due to my not having enough knowledge (knowing what engine I wanted and what features at the time of purchase) things I figured out after I bought the car. However, the company makes it a point to maintain contact with its customers and keep you notified if there are any recalls or anything. The vehicle itself has always been a joy to drive. It has great handling with a wonderful turn ratio. The braking system is spectacular and even the entertainment features at a base level were better than I had expected. I have already recommended Hyundai to friends and family over the years. Others who have driven my car were impressed by the way it handles. I didn't give it a 10 for comfort simply because in the year/model I drive I do tend to hit my head when I enter the car on occasion if I am not paying enough attention. Also, the features were based on my own vehicle - things that probably could have been better had I known what I wanted at the time of purchase. Overall this has been a wonderful vehicle to drive and experience. Reliable through the years as I have made it a point to make sure I take care of it and it has take care of me.

2008 Hyundai Santa fe

I have had my 2008 Santa Fe for almost 10 years and it still feels like a new car. It has kept its style as well as reliability. I continue to keep excellent maintenance at my local dealer's service department. In the future I will purchase another Hyundai but keep this one too. It's family....

2008 Hyundai Santa Fe Limited

We purchased this car from a Honda dealer in Sanford, NC. We actually tried the Tucson, but the seats seem too small for me and my wife liked the Santa Fe. The milwas around 55,000 miles when we bought it and now it has over 183,000 miles on it. We drove it on a 3 week trip to Yellowstone National Park in September 2015 and did not have any problems with the car. The entire trip was about 6,700 miles. I did have to wash it a couple of time to get the bugs and dirt off the car, but the performance of this car in driving through mountains and even several unpaved roads was great. We have also taken many trip to Michigan City, IN to see my Wife's Daughters and grandchildren and that is about a 2,000 mile round trip. In fact, we did that trip 5 times in 2017. When we bought this car, my Wife was very pleased with the airbag set up on the car, also the Sirius Radio, and it sits much higher abouve the road than her previous car. She feels very safe in the Santa Fe. We don't have any plans to purchase another car at this time, but when we do, we will be checking the inventory at Parkway Hyundai.

Best Vehicle EVER

I bought my Santa Fe new. It has been the best, most reliable vehicle ever. It just turned over 200k miles, and all I have EVER had done is standard maintenance. My next vehicle with also be a Santa Fe.

2008 Hyundai Sant Fe

Out of the 7 cars I've bought in my lifetime, about the best car I've owned (only 1 other make/model could rival it). Have about 180,000 miles on it & with doing proper maintenance had very little go wrong with it--hopefully will continue for another year when I will be in market for another car. Next car I buy plan to look at the new Santa Fe's and maybe the Tucson.

Smooth and dependable ride

I bought my 2008 Sante Fe new and now have over 180,000 miles on it. I have changed my oil as recommended and use synthetic oil. The tires are a little pricey but well worth it for the comfortable ride. The only thing I would change is to have a little cushier seat.

Lynn's 2018 Hyundai

I have enjoyed my Hyundai all these years and, hopefully, will be getting another one sometime this year. It has been very reliable until now and I'm beginning to have problems with it. Will get another one.

Love my Hyundai Santa Fe

I have a 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe -- bought it new. This has been the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. It is comfortable, great for traveling, hauling, and just run of the mill driving around. I have had very few problems beyond regular wear and tear. Better gas mileage would make it perfect.

Santa Fe 2008

Purchased this vehicle in March 2009, have had no maintenance issues over the 9 years that we have driven it. The warranty is great and the price for the car you got is outstanding. It has plenty of cargo room and gets decent gas mileage.

2018 Santa Fe

My Santa Fe is really comfortable. The ride is always smooth and enjoyable. With all the safety gadgets that are installed in the vehicle I feel a lot safer. It has a great turning radius compared to other suvs. I can easily u-turn out of tight spots. I’m in love with my new Santa Fe!

Satisfy

I bought my Santa Fe new in 2008. Ten years later, 135k miles, still have it, and the only thing that I have had to do to it, is regular maintenance. The biggest cost that happen just recently, was fuel pump and senser replacement. Which I look at being long term maintenance too. Excellent vehicles, and would buy another one.

auto review

Keep in mind that this car is 10 yrs old so not up to date with the newest gadgets. I have had almost no problems with this car in 10 yrs and the couple of issues have been paid for by the extended service contract. I love my santa fe. It has plenty of power and I have driven cross country several times. I get about 24 to 27 MPG. Wonderful automobile and I will replace it with another when I am ready........

best suv

One of the best SUV in the market. It never regret to purchase SANTA FE models. Since I drove 10 years, I have not had any major issue so far. I am planning to drive additional 10 year more years. It is such a good car.
