2007/2008 Veracruz Service Issues by biocranialjks
Sep 10, 2007 (2:34 pm)

Well, I have only had the 2008 Veracruz for about 3 weeks with under 1,500 miles on it and the air bag light is on. My wife was told that this could be up to a 5 hour diagnostic test and the dealer does not offer a loaner car. I am not sure about shuttle service either.
 
Anyone have any service issues so far with 2007 or 2008?

2500 miles and no service issues so far. As a service to your fellow VC owners, please update us on your experience.

I took the car in last Saturday morning and it took about 3 hours. Technician said it may have been caused by switching from driver's positions too much? I only drive the car on weekends so I don't think that is too much. Anyhow, he said that if it happens again, we need to bring it in during the weekday and they may need to order parts for it.

No loaner car for a warranty issue? I would put their feet in the fire over that one. It's my understanding that it's NOT a dealer option, it's covered by HYUNDAI. I'm assuming you're getting the car serviced where you purchased.

2007/2008 Veracruz Jacking Points by jseidel

I reviewed the owner's manual, and the technical shop manuals on Hyundai's web site - there is no mention of jack points to safely lift the vehicle. The Veracruz has a subframe, on rubber bushings, to support the engine and strut assemblies. The only jack points mentioned is for the emergency jack to change a tire. Using a floor jack to raise the entire front or rear of the vehicle is not mentioned in Hyundai's literature. Even with a great warranty I prefer to work on my car when possible -- I have had bad experiences more often than not, even with auto dealers. My Veracruze Limited was delivered with 50 lbs in each tire and half a quart low on oil. From what I can tell, the vehicle was just washed and delivered. There was a two page check-off sheet that was not touched - this is normal.

I don't know why dealers can figure simple prep out. Lots of people test drive cars and are unhappy with the ride, all because the prep wasn't done and the salesperson was too lazy to check to see if the tires were aired down to recommended pressures.

Lights dimming by xquuzme

I have a 2007 Veracruz which I love, but one annoying thing is that the lights dim and the heat/AC blower slows briefly when downshifting as I slow down to come to a stop. The dealer tells me this is normal, but I haven't had lights dim like this since driving an old car with a bad alternator. Anyone else experience this?

Gas Filter Recall by jmaulsby

I took my 07 Veracruz in today for the 15,000 mile oil change and the service dept. informed me that there is a recall on this vehicle. I never received any notice from Hyundai. They did not even have a filter in stock.
 
I also had a squeak in the rear of the vehicle. The spare tire was flat which allowed it to move from side to side in the carrier; causing a squeak. Service tech stated that the spare "had a pinhole in the top of the tire and it could not be fixed." To my knowledge, the spare has never been touched since it left Korea. The warranty does not cover tire parts. $95 for a new tire installed. Since it is the spare, I am going to check for a better price at Walmart or Discount Tire.

I took my 07 in for warranty work this morning and when they put the vehicle up on their lift, they managed to break the red reflector on the bumper. Obviously, the replacement is no charge, but I can not imagine how the service tech did this. I make mistakes on my job and I suppose everyone does occasionally.

Has anyone had problems with paint wearing off rear door well from grit being thrown up from front tires. I'm driving a 2007 Veracruz. Suggestions
