Hyundai Santa Fe - 2012

I wish now that I would had another choice of color but that is the only issue I had. I love my Santa Fe and I see so many on the road. It is a great vehicle.

This is my third Santa Fe and I love it. This may be my forever car. I would only buy a new Santa Fe if I win the lottery and can buy it outright.

I love the comfort, the size, the feel, the performance and all my passengers LOVE all my blue lighted interior buttons! Me too.

Great SUV for the money

I Love my Santa Fe. Great overall price, features,comfort, drivability and style. Tight steering hugs the road. I feel safe behind the wheel. Don't like some of the plastic exterior pieces like the front grill and bumper. I've enjoyed owning one.

Ok but not thrilled

It works, but not my best car. Have taken it in several times, it does have the warranty but not that exciting.

Great, just avoid the service department.

Apparently, the service department employs junior high dropouts, and not mechanics. Who knew?

Just what I wanted.

I love to drive the Santa Fe. The seats are comfortable and it "zips" around in traffic with ease. Long distance driving is equally impressive. I traded in a Camery because my husband and I found it too low to the ground when getting in and out. I am not disappointed with any feature of my Santa Fe.

My Hyundai experience

I am very pleased with the purchase I made. I just completed a five thousand mile trip which lasted four weeks, not problem at all with the vehicles performance. My only issue is with the highway mileage which is not what was expected,

2012 Hyundai Santa Fe I bought it new at McCarthy Hyundai Blue springs

Low maintenance. Gas mileage 24 in town about 26 on trips. Car has a shorter wheelbase than I like. It's to light to suit me. Outside of that it's a great car.

I love everything about this vehicle, the only thing I wish it had is a automatic hatch opener, which I see they do have on now.

Great Car

I love my Hyundai Santa Fe. I have had it for 3 years now and am still glad I bought it. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because I have a red car with beige seats and was kind of hesitant to buy it because of that, just not a fan of light colored seats. I now realize why it's not a good idea because the drivers seat looks dirty and I was going to get seat covers but since there are air bags in the seats that wasn't a possibility. Overall there has not been any major issues. I did have a defect in the door on the inside where the leather started to wrinkle and cause a small rip but that was fixed under warranty. There is lots of room and I love the fact that in the back there is a hidden space to store packages.
