2014 Santa Fe
Not really satisfied with my Santa Fe. There is a problem when the gears shift, the transmission makes a sound. We took it in, had a New trans. (so they say) put in and it still does it! When we took it back in, there was a Car hauler there with new Santa Fe's on it, my husband and one of the service personnel took it for a drive and it did the same thing! We've had the car Ten months now and have had no issue from it as of yet. The Bluetooth does not download my phonebook contacts like it should. Cannot get it to download my Home phone number, so everytime I want to call my house, I have to tell it to "dial a number"! Sad when you pay that much money on a car and things don't work right!
FABULOUS!
big but not too big, fabulous acceleration, great price,

Got rid of this vehicle
Got rid of this vehicle because of issues with electrical circuits and check engine lights. Was good until three years and 31500 miles. That's when problems started. Dealer could not find or fix electrical problems. So much for the "best warranty in the business." I cannot recommend this vehicle if you are looking for a long term vehicle.

Best Value of many.
We searched for a replacement for our 2006 Toyota Sequoia, wanting to go down in size. We looked at Toyota first, not finding the Highlander very appealing to us and dealer selection was awful. We also looked at Buick, Ford, GM and Dodge. We were very surprised when we began comparing features, options, overall cost and warranties of all the above. We found the Hyundai to be the best overall value by wide margin. Love driving it and the features are great. We had to drive a long way to find the one we wanted but well worth it! 11-14-18: Still working perfectly. Has not been taken into dealer for any issue, serviced regularly with no issues whatsoever! Even still driving with original factory tires. Would buy vehicle again but, no need to. Looking to hang on to this one for many more years.

Spontaneous cracks in navigation screen.
About 27,000 miles down the road, <4 years ownership (3 yr/30K) warranty I noticed I couldn't enter info into the GPS screen for directions. I brought the car to the dealership and they discovered 2 cracks in the screen that would cost $4K to repair. Yes, 4 thousand dollars!! Needless to say that wasn't going to happen at that price. HYUNDAI USA wasn't able to help either. So we're stuck owing several thousand dollars on a 5 year loan. Otherwise the car runs great and we love everything else about it -- and would have recommended it to anyone until now. We're extremely dissatisfied and disappointed in the lack of support from Hyundai. So much so that we just purchased a second SUV and it is NOT a Hyundai.

Hyundai Santa Fe STEERING PROBLEMS
My 2014 Hyundai is a nice vehicle but unsafe when driving on highways due to steering wandering all over the lane I am supposed to be in. It wanders from side to side and the wandering increases as the vehicle increases in speed over 50 MPH. Constant steering corrections have to be made just to keep the vehicle in the lane it is supposed to be in and even then it still wanders back and forth noticeable.

Very happy with this purchase
I did so much research before finally making a decision on an SUV. I am so excited and pleased with the Santa Fe! I purchased a GLS with the Premium and Tech packages, and I could not be happier. The build quality, look and feel, and handling are such a huge leap over my 2011 Highlander Limited. I could not be happier.
Incredibly impressed
We added this to our 2013 Sonata after the other midsize SUV we lease was bought back by another manufacturer as a lemon. We are incredibly impressed with all of the features in this car. It looks great, rides nicely, if a bit firm, has tons of room for 2 car seats and all the stuff that little kids come with and great technology. I admit that the panoramic sunroof was one of the biggest selling features. If you haven't seen it - you must - it beats all other competitors. The only demerits I give are on the telescoping steering wheel - wish it came back a little more and the rear view camera - the lines do not move when you turn the wheel - which is weird as the Sonata does.
Uggg. It's a Hyundia. Need I say more?
Had no choice but to rent this vehicle when I selected an SUV via online rental website for my trip. If I had known that my only choice was this car, I would have asked for a non-SUV and definitely not anything KIA or Hyundai. Cheap interior, cheap ride. From the grip of the steering wheel to the road feel, it simply isn't up to snuff with other more venerable economy car companies. If you're looking for this as a new car because the other makers' SUVs may be a little more expense, then buy used.

AWD failure
Was told the spines in the transmission have broken, you have no way of knowing they broke until the dealership inspects the transmission. The tranny could have broken under warranty but i have no way of knowing. The dealership was able to inspect the tranny as it was off due to the engine blowing, cost the fix the tranny is 6k. A 2014 1700,000km car with a blown engine and tranny, was not worth the price at all.
