My dads Hyundai Genesis has been in the shop for the last 4 months. Took them a month to diagnose and 3 months to get a broken part in from Korea. This is a brand new $85000 car. They have provided him a loaner but he is still making payments on his car with no timetable for repair. My sister also has a genesis that has become a parts cannon for ver the last 2 years. No way I would buy one. Totally different animal and Genesis actually split off from Hyundai several years ago, prob the reason for the parts shortage. But I agree, no way I’d buy a $85K luxury Kia or Hyundai. You buy a Kia or Hyundai to keep from paying Honda and Toyota prices, not to pay Cadillac prices.
My 2015 sonata has been great and unless they’ve changed them up, the Santa Fe shares the same drive train as a sonata. On my 4th Hyundai/Kia and zero problems with any of them. Santa Fe and Rav4 prices are basically the same. Actually Hoover Toyota has some Rav 4's that are cheaper than the lowest priced Santa Fe at Hoover Hyundai. But Santa Fe and Rav4 aren’t comparable. The Tucson is the Rav4 competition. Rav4 needs another row of seats to compete with the Santa Fe.

Have a BIL that is the QC director at Montgomery plant. He doesn’t have anything bad to say about them. Even behind closed doors.

A lot of the Hyundai SUV's are made at the KIA
plant in West Point.
Any differences are superficial/name only.
Don't know the price difference, but customer
preference would be the important thing in my
book looking only at resale time.

We bought my wife a ‘22 Telluride a few months ago. It’s an absolutely wonderful vehicle. Plenty of room and every bell and whistle you could ever want. They are proud of those things tho. But up until that time she was driving an ‘03 Lexus LS 430 with 270K miles so it was time to upgrade.
We looked at several other SUV’s but that one was our favorite. Gardendale Kia is who we bought from.

I’m about to buy the bride a new ride. She’s done with her 2018 Ford Explorer and we are considering either the Kia Telluride or the Hyundai Sante Fa or Pallisade.
Any first hand experience with either of the rides would be greatly appreciated. Just curious what model explorer and what trouble she’s had? We have a 2015 limited and it’s been a great vehicle so far. But it’s only got about 118,000 miles.
