Question, did they move the front rims to the rear and drive it? If it were a bad rim, then the vibration would move from the steering to the seat. If all the rims were an issue, you would also feel it in the seat as well as the steering. Doesn't the dealer have another Veracruz in stock with same/different rims? Easy way to find out is swap rims and test drive the other vehicle, it the vibration transfers, then the problem has been found, if not, well, they were looking in the wrong place.
 
Also, it does not need to be the same model Veracruz to do this test, it can be a base, or an AWD, all that is being tested are the rims, and the rims between a base, to high end AWD are all the same bolt pattern.
 
Edit: One more thing. When they mount the wheels to the car, are they using a torque wrench, or impact with torque tubes? You would be surprised how big a difference it can make when properly torqued over quickly torqued. Before going any further, get this question answered and if they used torque tubes on an Impact, have them retorque using a calibrated torque wrench, or find some other place that will do it. Some rims, especially after market fancy rims, if not torqued with a calibrated torque wrench can exhibit vibration issues due to the rim warping. On a balancer, the method used to secure it is usually a cone that presses with equal force against the rim, so they balance true, but if the rotor that the rim attaches to is not perfectly flat, and the wheel isn't torqued properly, it can cause a vibration such as you are experiencing. It could be a rotor causing this too.

Any idea when they'll hit the dealer lots? The Mid-Atlantic region seemed to get a real late start on the '09s, and I didn't see any '10s listed within a 100 miles of Philadelphia.

No idea. I was following the Elantra Touring a bit and the 2010's are on sale in Canada already but there aren't any around here.

I also expect the new revised Nav system and bluetooth to appear. The revised system works with both XM and USB. Not sure on rear seat entertainment.

Whistle noise from side mirrors by billclark99

Am I the only one, or has anyone else noticed this. As soon as I get over 80 KM/hour (45 MPH) there is a whistle coming from air rushing between the door frame and both side mirrors. Even with the windows closed I can hear it.

I haven't heard any wind noise even 90 MPH in my 08. I suggest you have the door seals looked at or replaced. I had to have the rear drivers door seal replaced as it fell off one day and I could never get it to stay in place, it was stretched when they put it on, so it didn't sit right. The new one fits perfectly.
