Great vehicle. Overall I am pleased! Concerned about exhaust system.

I noticed on my new 2026 Hyundai Santa Fe, and the others on the lot at Hyundai of El Paso, that on the exhaust system (catalytic converter, muffler and exhaust pipe that there are multiple welds that appear to be rusting. I am concerned that they will rust out in time. Below I will include pictures taken recently. My vehicle was purchased 12/8/2025. I believed that the vehicle was assembled at a plant in Georgia. Also as to not raise the prices too much, the 2026 did not have a stainless steel exhaust and was modified. I appreciated keeping the cost from rising, but am concerned about this issue. Please contact me with a response by phone (preferred) and/or email. Thank you, Richard "John" Lassere

Roomy

This is our second Santa Fe and we needed more room. This has a 3rd row seat. We have the limited edition which is packed with features. Love the Bose sound system too.

Great value

The new santa fe is packed with luxury features for the price. It could use a more sl eek ecpxterior intead of the old school box shape. Seat belt buckles are clunky, I detect a future recall if issues persist with the buckles not fastening or unfastening easily. Transmission has hard shifting, but other than that smooth ride.

Brand new 26' Gone Horribly wrong

My 6th Hyundai and 4th Santa Fe & 2nd Santa Fe Hybrid--since leaving the showroom--it's been a complete disaster, too much to fully explain unless I can get a phone call from someone I can understand, please! I have THREE highly defective tires and have been to the service center 5 times-now they want me to drive my car with unsafe, dangerous tires back to my original dealership 175 miles away...HELPPPP!!!

Every detail covered

We’ve had many new cars and Hyundai is best by far for quality, comfort, technology especially, price and looks. We had a 2023 Sante Fe plug in hybrid and it was great, but this 2026 hybrid is PERFECT!

Quiet smooth ride, great tech

This car is very quiet, super comfortable, and has all the latest technology. I love doing the remote start/climate start with the app, and the storage space is fantastic. One thing, we live on kind of a busy street and the automatic breaking/accident prevention sometimes makes it tough to back out of my driveway; that’s the only negative thing I can think about this car. I really love it.

2026 Hyundai Sante Fe hybrid

Overall I'm very pleased with my new Hyundai Sante Fe. However, I am disappointed with two things. First I was very surprised that the new vehicle did not have a spare tire. A driver should have peace of mind that there is a spare donut tire and not a can of foam. I am told some tire dealers will not repair tires that have the foam in them. Second, the navigation system map leaves alot to be desired. The map is very difficult to read. Street names should be in bold print and not small light face type. This is a safety hazard because the driver can not try to read the map and keep his eye on the road. I have owned numerous Ford vehicles whose navigation screens are much easier to read. I hope you can correct my concern in the future.

This is out 3rd Santa Fe!

Our 2026 Santa Fe HEV is a dream to drive. The ride is smooth. The electronics are a marvel. The comfort is grand. I'm not a fan of the cramped third row, but so far it has carried one adult passenger successfully, but he had to extend his legs out between the two captain's chairs of the second row.
