Hyundai Santa Fe

"Surprisingly good handling with the stock tires. Acceleration is good but can be a bit "step like" as the RPMs climb"

"Bad - Rattle behind the driver's seat that they can't locate or fix"

"Handled great in bad weather"

"The engine is powerful and accelerates well for a large car."

"Icreasingly sluggish acceleration"

"Very peppy with 6 cylinder. Like the adjustable steering (comfort to sporty). Love the short turning radius. Very easy to maneuver and park."

"ACCELERATES VERY WELL 4 WHEE DRIVE DOES IT IN SNOE STEERING AND BRAKING EXCWLLENT"

"Did you know the nav system on the Santa Fee requires a $300+ update every year. The nav system is very poor. I found it missing a complete city. I called the Nav software people and told them they were missing a city and they told me to buy an map update. so I use my smartphone app."

"Transmission slow to downshift. Also no sport mode, shifts up too soon."

"Has great acceleration from a standstill it is really noticeable WITH THE TURBO ENGINE"

"Excellent handling in all weather"

"The vehicle, for it's size, has really good acceleration with excellent transmission response. It handles well on all types of highways, from narrow two-lane country roads in the hills of Southern West Virginia to the Southern Interstates. I'm amazed at the short turning radius for a vehicle of this size. The back-up camera combined with the small turning radius makes parking very easy."

"Vehicles responds well in all altitudes and driving conditions which is very helpful when traveling through unfamiliar areas and terrains."

"Very powerful engine, handles very well."

"The engine is great and very responsive. Passing is easy with the power that I get from the V6 engine. Engine is super quiet and cruising at highway speeds is effortless. The handling is very good and feel confident in taking corners sharper than with my Jeep. Braking is excellent. Love this SUV"

"I really enjoy the acceleration and handling and f this vehicle. At high speeds the vehicle remains stable and smooth. The acceleration is great for merging onto highways and passing. Handling is solid for a vehicle of this size."

"Good turning radius. Great pickup when passing other vehicles. Good in snow."

"The GLS (base model). Has very comfortable seats with height and electric lumbar adjustments. Ride quality remains good and road noise is low."

"Tires make a very distracting road noise"

"Everything about the comfort is very good. Seats are adjustable for my wife and I despite being vastly different sizes. Interior noise allows me to make business phone calls with little extraneous noise. Space and the interior are roomy."

"The seats are very comfortable, with plenty of leg room for all three rows of seats. The second row seats have heated seat cushions controlled by the back seat passengers. The vehicle is fairly quiet on the highway, and the ride is firmly controlled with little vehicle lean in corners and controlled motion over pavement irregularities."

"Increasingly noisy ride ( shakes, rattles, vibrations )"

"Seats are very uncomfortable, could use a lot more seat padding."

"Rolling sofa. Handling is fair. Good for long trips but not so great in traffic and around town. Stiff ride but dumped the Kumho OEM tires for Continental True Contact and car is like new."

"noise from door seals , also if seat is complete back you will damage rubber seal getting in and out of car."

"Seats comfortable for 8 - 10 hours driving. Road noise is minimal. Ride is no harsh but could be a little more gentle."

"We have had recurring problems with the electric adjustments of the drivers seat that were never solved by the dealer and will require comparatively expensive control switches to repair now that it is out of warranty."

"We can take cross country road trips and not have pain or exhaustion due to long times seated and clear vision while driving."

"I have a really odd rattling noise that has developed in the passenger side headrest of my Santa Fe. I actually swapped out the headrest with the one on the driver side to see if that would fix it… And it seemed like it did temporarily… But it returned shortly thereafter. Truthfully that is the only complaint I have about this car."

"The car top rack is so noisy we can't use the sunroof."

"very expensive annual maintenance costs. numerous problems, all expensive to fix."

"Best value and features at this price point. Has proven to be very reliable. Highly recommended!"

"This is a car and an excellent value."

"Not worth it - poor acceleration, engine knocks, multiple trips back to the dealer to fix probbens and recalls I would never buy this car again"

"Think the price was good in relationship to comparable vehicles"

"Got a good deal."

"It is a good utilitarian vehicle for hauling people (up to 7) and purchases."

"We test drove the Toyota Highlander and the Hyundai Santa Fe. To get the same features in the Toyota (leather seats, sunroof, heated steering wheel, etc.) would have cost at least $10,000 more. Great value with Hyundai!"

"For the interior size for 5 adults is very good. The additional seating for two more people is rather cumbersome to get into and is better suited for kids but two smaller adults can get in there for a short ride."

"AS NOTED THOUSANDS UNDER THE COMPETIIION"

"The big plus is the 5-year bumper-to-bumper warranty. Just had the back-up camera replaced. I researched all the other SUVs before buying the Santa Fe and it would have cost me between $8,000-12,000 more for a comparably-equipped SUV- with an inferior warranty."

"Over all only needed regular maintenance"

"Most SUV you pay for all the extras addons this vehicle had a more standard feature. Has a very smooth ride. and good gas miles on the freeways."

"THE LIMITED WASS THOUSANDS UNDERTHE COMPETITION FRO THE SAME AMENITIES"

"mileage,easy to drive, comfortable, good breaks and steering."

"Excel ant car for price, should swap my clk mercedies for one today."
