I'll first start off with what I didn't like. The window control panel went out just one month after buying. We got that fixed and then the back drivers side door lock quit working. I do like the smooth ride and the decent fuel mileage.

My Santa Fe has been both reliable and a great value. I have 122,000 miles, and have only had one major repair that was needed. All other work on the vehicle has been routine maintenance and expected wear items (belts, brakes, etc.). It has also been a great value. The interior's quality is on par with any luxury vehicle I have been in. The engine is smooth and quite powerful. The transmission/all wheel drive are very smooth and completely automated.
