Most reliable car I ever owned

Lack of second key 🔑 has not pleased me. I would recommend that you guys get us at least 2 keys . And yet, not remote working 💁🏽‍♂️

Amazing and Awesome

I have always wanted to have a Hyundai SantaFe and when I saw it at the dealer I feel in love with it. Now I have it!

No buyer's remorse

Up to this point in time the vehicle has been excellent. The comfort and power are impressive. My only real concern is that I wish the car was a bit quieter. Road noise on roads that are not absolute smooth could be better.

Great mid size SUV for the money

Great SUV up until I saw the recalls for 2014 santa fe sport for things that can be life threatening in the right scenario my mom drives this vehicle daily on the interstate these recalls if on her particular are deadly. I would recommend this car for other buyers but only after a hyunday dealer looked at the recall issues

Has transmission problems.

Will not change gears. The RPM’s going really high before it changes gears. I had to replace parts to the air conditioner . Makes noises when you turn the streaking wheel on a shape left turn. I know there were recalls back in 2008 and I think they are having the same problem just no recalls for the 2014. I had a 2007 Veracruz and my daughter has it now and it has over 260;000 miles on it. Mine has 106 and I have had more problem with this then I ever did with it. I was sold on the Hyundai with the Veracruz but not the Santa fe

excellent value for the money, a bit more power.

The Santa Fe is well designed with lots of room for entry which pleases my wife. The 2.4 runs well and though a bit more pop would be nice generally it performs very well.
