This has been a good vehicle since buying used. Great interior layout and features for the price. Gas consumption and braking could be better. No problems so far. Would recommend this vehicle to anyone wanting a good comfortable SUV.
great suv

I work 120 miles from home and was tired of riding on a crowded company bus for 2 hours. I bought a 05 Santa Fe from a elderly gentleman on marketplace. It had 121k on it and sat for 7 years. I changed the timing belt ,water pump and a window relay. This little Hyundai has been great in all weather conditions. Wyoming can be brutal in the winter and I've had no issues getting home in extreme cold ,ice or heavy snow.. sometimes I'll take four coworkers with meall over 200 lbs and it does fine. In the last 6 years I've added 80k to it and have had to replace rear shocks ,a couple of fuses n relays, alternator belt and plugs..I've driven it through blizzards, 100 degree heat ,ice storms it keeps on going love it.. Great little SUV for what I paid.

I have been very happy with performance of the car and have to say they have been extremely helpful in the service center of Hyundai. The 5 year bumper to bumper is amazing. The only real issue is the gas mileage - with heat and AWD kicking in sometimes (winter time), I am getting around 10-12 miles/gallon (stop and go on the roads), which is horrible.
Most Unreliable car I ever had, would give it 0
