  • Price and reliablity - 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe

    We were looking for a small SUV. We looked at the Ford Escape and found that 36 months for a warranty couldnt compete with the Santa Fe. We got a 6 cylinder instead of a 4 cylinder for less money.

  • Sante Fe Irritation - 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe
    By -

    We are not getting near the gas mileage as listed by the manufacturer and find this very disappointing. We are irritated enough about it that we have discussed trading it in to get another (more expensive) vehicle of the same size which gets better mileage. Although I really do not like the exterior design we were pleased with the overall performance, interior looks, and handling. It has lots of pep.

  • Sorta Beware - 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe
    By -

    This vehicle is great, except that it burns oil. Hy. Corp said that it is normal to burn 1 QT / 1000 miles. Dont buy into this. It took 2 months to finally get the Corporation to fix it. Now the dealership is tearing down the engine to find out the problem. Other than the burning of oil, I have enjoyed this vehicle, especially in the snow, where it plowed through 1 1/2 of snow.

  • Chirp has always served me well! - 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe
    By -

    Yes, I named my Santa Fe "Chirp". It has been a great vehicle. I bought it used in 06 and until this year, only needed routine maintenance (Crank Shaft Sensor went out in March). I just rolled over to 90,000 miles last week and I am looking forward to many more miles with Chirp!
