2002 Hyundai Santa Fe review from North America
"Good car, cheap, worth the money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Only thing I have noticed wrong with the car, is when I get over 70, the wheel shakes pretty badly, but it was like that when I first bought the car used.
General comments?
I am only 16 years old and this is my first car. I bought a 2002 Hyundai Santa Fe, and I bought it used at 60,000 miles and for about 6,200.
I was hoping to get an SUV, because I have to drive about 2 hours each weekend during the winter through the snow, and this car holds up really well. I don't have the all wheel drive version, but even just the 2 wheel drive does really well. It's great in snow and rain.
Another reason I got this car, is because for an SUV, it has pretty good gas mileage. It's a good car, pretty cheap and I HIGHLY recommend it.
The only thing I could complain about is how when I go over 70, the wheel shakes, but that has happened since I had the car. But GREAT CAR!
