2002 Hyundai Santa Fe LX review from North America
"A comfortable ride with SUV capabilities"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
During extremely cold weather, the front left speaker would crackle.
General comments?
I love my Santa Fe.
It has the most comfortable drive. It has a smooth ride and excellent control unlike some sport utilities that drive like a truck.
It looks great and draws attention. I have had numerous strangers come up and ask me about it. I even came out of the store one day and found a person walking around the car checking it out. He was embarrassed when he heard me unlock the doors from a few feet away!
