My Pop's friend had this same trouble with his santa fe and it ended up being the throttle control. It's a computer chip and it ended up malfunctioning. He took it to the dealer and they diagnosed and replaced it in 45 minutes.

Take your Veracruz to your dealer and ask them to check the ETC Throttle Body . Veracruz doesn't have any transmission problem (as far as I know). I think your Veracruz has TPS (throttle position sensor) problem. TPS is part of ETC throttle body. Ask them what they can do for you regarding this ETC. Tell them to Reflash or Reprogram the ECU if ever they will replace the ETC throttle body. Have a nice day!
 
Reflash or Reprogram - means updating the ECU
ECU or ECM - means Engine Control Unit ( the computer of your car's engine)

You can get Veracruz wipers on Amazon.

I had the same thing, they scanned the computer and told me that is the way the car is. There was nothing they could do. It is the lock up or the toque converter.

Outback eh? Something tells me Hyundai will be around much longer than Saturn, especially after today's news regarding how bad GM is right now, and 2 hairs away from bankruptcy.

Outback is the Subaru - you're thinking of the Outlook.
 
Or something like that.

I took my 08 Veracruz in twice and they would tell me "cannot duplicate problem" Finally, I insisted they keep it over night because it does the hesitation and reving in the am. They just called me to tell me that they were finally able to duplicate the problem and it was the Throttle Position Sensor. They are also going to reflash the computer. They need both sets of keys to reprogram them as well. Good luck and demand they check the throttle pos. sensor.
