 Know your dealership. They are the ones who will either help or ignore you with future situations.  We had a 2003 Sante Fe for 13 years and 104000 miles. We gave it to our grandkids and purchased a 2016 Tuscon based on the great experience our Sante Fe gave us. We are more than pleased. I am keeping an eye on the transmission problems that are starting to pop up. I don't want a repeat of the experience we had with a recall the Sante Fe had on the front coils.  Hence, I suggest one keep abreast of problems as they occur and avoid unpleasant surprises later
