The Santa Fe is well built. I bought it after it was used as a rental vehicle. It had a high mileage, which has never affected the vehicle performance. Since I bought it seven years ago, I have only had to replace two internal components. One being the gas cap, the other being a gasket. It has a smooth freeway drive but not the greatest gas mileage. Its interior has adequate space. A good car for a mom with messy kids who have a lot of stuff!
