Review 2 of 264

Price Paid:  $0.00 from Pathway

Year / Model Reviewed:
2009 Limited

Strengths:
HANDLING, WIND NOISE, INTERIOR, PICK-UP

Weaknesses:
gas mileage

leatherette beige seats become discoloured
very quickly. In our case every two weeks.
Interior seats were all cleaned and treated with a protecting sealant and discoloured re-occurred in two weeks.
The bottom left side of the driver's seat
is where this black dirt substance appears.

Was told that it is due to the light beige colour of the leatherette seats, the material used, the colour of clothing worned and the in and out of the car.

If it occurred 2 or 3 times a year it would be understandable but EVERY TWO WEEKS - !

Could the dirt come from within the seat?

Hyundai Canada informed us that the seats are defective and nothing can be done.

My wife is the primary driver and she uses the vehicle mainly to go to and from work.

Using warm water and a mild soap cleans the surface of the seat. We purchased the car for 5 years therefore will have to clean the seat approx. 120 times.

If there is a problem with the light beige leatherette seats may be the consumer should be forwarned of it.

Summary:
Hyundai Canada should re-test their leatherette light beige seats or at least have a representative actually come and see our seat problem. The black substance which appears on the seat has never been defenitely identified.

Year / Model Reviewed:
2009 Santa fe

Strengths:
Good looks. best options for the price along with a good warranty, lots of storage and reclining rear seats

Weaknesses:
light brown leather seats develope black dust marks on the sides every week and needs to be cleaned often. Ruff ride, Finding an after market oil filter impossable (no such thing available, dealer only)

Summary:
The vehicle did give me acouple of surprises when doing routine maintance. With little information given at time of purchase from salesman/ dealership (felt as if I was on my own, just wanted the sale!)All in all, very satisfied so far
