Hi Guys. These forums have been invaluable in helping me decide on buying a used Veracruz GLS a week ago. I put it on the road for $25K. It had 7500 miles on it, and so far I can find no major issues with it. The dealer told me it was traded in by someone who wanted to upgrade to a Limited. One thing I have noticed is that when slowing down gradually to a stop, I sometimes feel a hitch in the transmission at about 15-20MPH. It feels like the transmission is not shifting properly. Has anyone else felt this? Is it a problem that can be fixed by reflashing the control unit? Any ideas/feedback would be much appreciated!

I'm very happy with the VC, or at least I was! Today, went to wash vehicle, but never made it there. - Exact same thing happened to my wife last week...so this is the 2nd & 3rd times. - As I slowed to a red light, just before final stop (±3mph), the VC stalled, as if the tranny never made it to first gear or disengaged for the vehicle to idle in drive. - Sticked in in neutral, she wouldn't go to Park, and it started right away...ok (I guess). - Carry on my merry way, next stop at a red light, same thing, but this time, it wouldn't start or go in Park. I had to open up the "shift unlock" access hole & push on the tab so I could put it in Park. - Called roadside assistance...15min. later, she fired up! WTF? »It acted like the computer didn't recognise my key. Anyone?

| I've had a little different tranny characteristic. I seem to feel a "wobble" or hesitation when it shifts into 4th and 5th gear, more so when cold. It almost feels like the vehicle is misfiring but when I put it in neutral and just glide it goes away and the engine runs smooth. It's going in to get checked next week. At first I thought the tires were out of round. | |

If they fix it the first time and that's the end of that one...I'm happy, shit happens. I'll be a little worried for a while and if it doesn't happen again, I'll stop worrying. |

Hi everyone. I own a 2007 Veracruz Limited with about 7K miles on it. So far, it seems to be a terrific car. VERY stable, always feels safe to drive. Good value for the money. I love the quietness, feel, and features of this car. Great stereo system! I've listed a few of the problems I've had so far and would appreciate comments. Front end squeaks and rattles - seem to be coming from the struts. In to dealer twice and they're not sure how to fix this. Headlights - low beams have a sharp horizontal cutoff (don't illuminate roadsigns when close) and high beams are way too high! Extremely bright, but don't do anything to the roadway (only the trees). In to two dealers, and they both told me they are not adjustable. Under the hood, there does seem to be an elaborate adjustment mechanism. From comments I've read on this forum, they are adjustable. Any comments please? Tire overinflation - same as many people had apparently. Mine were 50 psi! Lights dim and fan blower dim briefly when the transmission downshifts. Dealer tells me that all Hyundais do this and it's normal. Seems pretty chintzy for a 21st century vehicle. Thanks!
