Used 2009 Hyundai Santa Fe Consumer Reviews
Love My Santa Baby!
Bought it after trading in a Mazda Miata Convertible. . . which I dearly loved! But grandchildren have arrived and I must do the grandmotherly thing. This vehicle had the highest safety rating and had great reviews on Edmunds. So there was no great debate on which way I would go.
Great Value
Bought the Santa Fe after my wife's van was totaled. My wife is short so driving position and comfort were VERY important for her. Looked at ALL the competition. Came down to a used Toyota Highlander or new Santa Fe for about the same cost. Honestly, we liked the Highlanders better, but the Santa Fe was the best value, had less road noise, and had many features the Toyota didn't, including a long warranty. Just got back from an 1100 mile family trip (4 of us). Great ride, but disappointed with gas mileage. Only getting about 19.5 on the highway. But if the Electronic Stability Control was turned off, got about 22 mpg. This has to be fixed!

2009 Santa Fe GLS 6cyl 4AT
I purchased a new Hyundai in July due to the Cash for Clunkers program. I had a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee, that I have loved, but it was getting ready to hit 200K. I drove several different models from the Kia Sportage, to the Toyota RAV4, Chevrolet Equinox, and the Santa Fe. On my second fillup I got 24 mpg-unbelievable!The inside is well designed except for the seats are not comfortable; driver's side. They are very stiff and not nearly as comfortable as the Jeep or other American cars. Please include fog lights as standard on this vehicle. The paint job is beautiful and I am thrilled about the warranty! Love the sound system and I usually put custom sound systems in the car after purchase.
Owned One Now Own Two
I Live in all 4-seasons, have 4 vehicles (2-trucks, and 2-family movers). I have purchased two Hyundias with the 3.3 V-6, FWD, and love them both. Bang for the buck, Hyundia gives your George Washington's a smile. If i were a salesman I'd sell this like sleds on a snow day without school. Look at the competition, vote with your dollar, and tomorrow you'll be happy in your Sante Fe...If you buy the 3.3 v-6, cuz we're American and need the power! :)LoL
Best car and best price
Best car in the class, especially the very nice interior, and the very rich standard features. Beautiful style. Best price with very clear sales information.
