 I am the original owner, purchasing the vehicle (rated 18mpg City/22 Hwy) with 56 miles on the odometer.  I've never gotten more than 15mpg with it and usually around 12mpg is more accurate.  I've taken it into the dealer where I bought it several times only to be told there's nothing wrong with it. Several bulbs burned out the first year. All in all it's been a decent car albeit it way underpowered.  It took winter/snowy driving in Quebec, CA without a hitch but even with new tires, in the rain it feels uneasy. I can't say I'd buy another Santa Fe but Hyundai does a good job for the money.
