Good utilitarian vehicle

Like the interior design. Nice dashboard design. Much more space than previous Santa Fe. Nice to have third row seating. Good gas mileage for htrac version. Exterior design very boxy, but I bought on its utilitarian value. Don't like that the rpm goes to zero at a traffic light, but I think the EPA is to blame for that. Sucks that I have a one second delay when the light turns green. Should have come with a rear hitch.

good and bad

Good, comfortable, reasonable MPG and looks. Bad, Tires, need replaced @ 18,000 miles. control panel hard to use in bright daylight, Car Transmission is very very loose. Complained @ the dealer (Jenkins) was told it was normal. (put in park and will still move, when you take foot off of the brake). Don't believe the dealer wants to fix!! Finally, Step on the gas and (at times) and no go or motor race's.

Love to drive it!

Comfortable car, easy to drive but I am still learning to use all of the tech. I am 81 and challenged technology. Th 3rd Rowe of seats is a waste of space I have never used them. I would rather had more leg room in 2nd Rowe & storage area. It would be nice if after you drive the car you would have a tutorial on the technology. Invite new owners up for a Q & A session. Have coffee & treats. I know I would drive the 80 miles. Try it, you might sell a few few more cars.

base model review

The vehicle doesn't go backwards up a small hill at a reasonable speed. It's 0 or too fast. I would guess the removal of the tourqe converter required a lower reverse gear that didn't happen on my model. My tires wore out in 9000 miles. I'm old and don't drive fast. I'm sure you could check. Dealer said they can't do anything but charge me full price for new tires. Having brake noise after not driving it for a couple hours in reverse only. And only a couple seconds. Dealership said the brakes are wearing unevenly and wanted to change my to clean and grease the caliper slide pins. It's just barely over a year old with 9000 miles on it. Even though I paid for the extended warranty! I guess the brakes are just as good as the tires are! At the time of sale I probably could have been upsold on the remote start having control over the climate control. And roof bars and hitch with wire harness as they are good deals at the time of sale. It would have been money better spent then the extended warranty. Not a fan of the privacy invasion. It never seemed like my phone was listening to me unless I was in this car. It's nice the newer ones have dash cameras. Wish mine came with one. The incentive that got us in the door was only for a really bad interest rate. Should have walked out then. My last vehicle was a 2009 sonata. Never had much of a problem with it for the 16 years I drove it. Maybe you didn't cheap out on the important stuff. Time will tell.

Love the vehicle.

The Santa Fe is a great vehicle. I like the way it drives and the functionality of it. It is roomy and comfortable. A few things I would add are factory drive cameras in the front and rear. Change for extra cloud storage. Also add a windshield heater down the drivers side for ice a snow buildup. Then add a built in fluid level gages and service chart in the computer system for owners.

Great but could be better

I have had this vehicle for just over a year. Besides 3 recalls, the only issue I had was a dead battery twice during winter. I would expect the cold not to drain a new battery. I got the matte paint but would not recommend it as it requires a lot more care. The interior is fantastic and levels beyond Honda but some small things were overlooked that wills have made the interior perfect.

Underwhelming and regretful

I had very high hopes for this vehicle. Unfortunately as time went on the flaws came out more and more and became harder to ignore. This vehicle is not one I have confidence in. I worry its features for safety make it more dangerous than less

Very Spacious

The spacious areas aee nice and roomy. That really is the best for this SUV against others I looked for. I looked all over and this has space. The transmission failed at 9,000 miles and had to be replaced. Took 6 weeks in a loaner vehicle provided by Huffines McKinney. The molding and plastic in the whole vehicle scratches very easily , like behind the drivers seat etc and in the back.
