Used 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe GLS 4dr SUV (2.7L 6cyl 5M) Consumer Reviews
Lemon.
My 2007 hyundai Santa Fe with 134,000 has just been deemed dangerous to drive. The frame is severely rusted. No CD player and 2 of electric door locks have not functioned since 32,000 miles. I used my life savings to purchase this vehicle and it was driven significantly less than 10,000 miles/yr. Maintenance was performed as recommended. Lots of other issues too. Matthew's Hyundai refused to do an oil change on 7/12/22 because of dangerous frame condition. Said it appeared there were no drainage holes put in frame so water just sat and rusted out frame.

Please some lemon aid
My 2007 Santa Fe has 135,000 miles on it. I purchased new and have driven it less than 9000 miles per year. All maintenance as suggested was performed. I took vehicle into Matthew's Hyundai on 7/12/22 for an oil change. They refused to do it because the frame was rotted and it was dangerous to drive. Possibly because there were no signs of drain holes in frame and water just sat and rotted it out. Also my cd player and 2 windows have not functioned since 32000 miles. No warranty. At 127101 miles 4 new Toyo tires were purchased at Vision dealer. At that time Jeremy Patton Lic #4XU6 told me this vehicle should last 200,000 miles at least. Guess he was mistaken. Hyundai of America has been contacted and they gave me an unfair buy back figure of $8220.

transmission failure at 9 years
transmission failed less than 10 year. Had to replace it for $3500. It has 130k mileage now, with a market value slightly higher than the cost. Hunydai custom service does not care.

Huge Advance
My driving and ownership experience are really excellent. I am the owner of Santa Fe 2000 and next year I am planning to buy new Santa Fe 2007. I have already tried it and I can only say "HUGE ADVANCE!"
