2007 Hyundai Veracruz Consumer Reviews

Great SUV FWD

Vehicle

2007 Hyundai Veracruz Limited 4dr SUV (3.8L 6cyl 6A)

Review

I bought the LTD in early April 2007 and have 43600 miles on. I had the fuel pump and twice the brake light switch replaced in the two years. The car has been solid ever since. I bought the aftermarket "SES" 2 pc. grill which closed up the gaping hole in the front. Looks good. the dealer has been great with all issues. I love the looks, the ride, the luxury and the value. I chose it over the CX9 due to price and the Rendesvous which was dated.

Excellent Vehicle

Vehicle

2007 Hyundai Veracruz SE 4dr SUV (3.8L 6cyl 6A)

Review

The Veracruz is a very well built auto. With the addition of a hitch, it even tows reasonably heavy loads without much trouble. The engine is very capable. The interior is nearly perfect. Material quality is terrific and better than my previous Honda. In 60k miles the only issue I have had is a power window switch had to be replaced. Great stereo. Has been in two collisions, front and rear, with no damage other than bumper cover replacement. One of the other vehicles was totalled with trunk and roof creases. Compares well with my wife's Acadia.

Rides like a RX350

Vehicle

2007 Hyundai Veracruz SE 4dr SUV (3.8L 6cyl 6A)

Review

Purchased for styling, comfort, price & warranty after comparing to Pilot, Highlander & Mazda RX9. Subsequently found it to compare equally in size, comfort and features with XC90 and RX350 owned by other family members. Dealer warranty experience has been good on two occasions. Handles great in town and on highway.

Bought Used--Lovin' it!

Vehicle

2007 Hyundai Veracruz Limited 4dr SUV (3.8L 6cyl 6A)

Review

This is my first SUV & I am in love with it! Buying this car used was well worth it b/c I was able to afford the Limited edition with leather seats & ALL the bells & whistles I could imagine. I feel like I'm driving a luxury vehicle! The car drives SO smoothly and it is SO quiet. Stereo sounds great! I read EVERY review on this website before my purchase and I think I made a great choice! I looked at the Honda CR-V as well but the interior honestly looked a little dated after seeing the Veracruz Limited Ed. I NEVER thought I would own a Hyundai-but I agree with another review, that this SUV is a hidden gem! I feel proud and smart that I got a "luxury" car for a great price!

70,000 miles and going strong

Vehicle

2007 Hyundai Veracruz Limited 4dr SUV (3.8L 6cyl 6A)

Review

I have 70K on my vehicle and have three minor issues; a recall, and twice the throttle sensor died and I had to have it towed in. I learned that the first was a faulty program which wasn't corrected when I had it towed first time. Now they have it nailed down. As to complaints from others; I don't know how you're driving, but I get 19.9MPG mixed and 24.5Hwy. I am 6'3" and find the space plenty large enough, and I do some serious driving. One thing - I changed tires this winter and found the Continentals are much better in snow than the Michelin's it came with. Much happier with that change of rubber. Great car love it.

Never Again

Vehicle

2007 Hyundai Veracruz GLS 4dr SUV (3.8L 6cyl 6A)

Review

The transmission is terrible with unwanted clunking, metallic downshifts at stoplights. Several bulletins issued by factory which did nothing. This vehicle is an absolute piece of junk!

Worst vehicle I've ever owned

Vehicle

2007 Hyundai Veracruz GLS 4dr SUV (3.8L 6cyl 6A)

Review

Since day one when it was delivered to me I have had transmission problems! For almost 3 years it has been back and forth to three different dealers. Nobody can stop the vehicles from downshifting when braking and making a loud clunking noise. Meet with Factory Rep. tomorrow. Have contacted state consumer folks and this vehicle DOES qualify as a "Lemon". If necessary, I will force dealer to take it back. Stay away from Hyundai. It has taken me this long to get a 2nd meeting with the factory Representative.

would never buy another one

Vehicle

2007 Hyundai Veracruz Limited 4dr SUV AWD (3.8L 6cyl 6A)

Review

I just recently purchased the veracruz about 4 months ago. Within the first week there was a loud thumping noise in the rear end, then once winter hit I attempted to use the awd feature. I quickly realized that did not work, the loud grinding noise gave that away. So after my wife putting 1000 miles on it, off to the shop it went. replaced entire rear end and 4 wheel drive due to oil contamination, at least that what I was told. While it was in the shop I told them to check the front end,as that was making alot of noise also. they did not, so know I am back in my loaner vehicle,after paying nearly 30k for a vehicle and now back in a loaner car, could not be more dissatisfied.

Luv My Veracruz

Vehicle

2007 Hyundai Veracruz GLS 4dr SUV (3.8L 6cyl 6A)

Review

We purchased the vehicle new in July 06. We bought the GLS FWD. We've loved the vehicle. We average about 18mpg overall. On our summer vacation to Hilton Head, we've averaged over 25 with 7 people and luggage. Only issue we've had is we're on the 3rd battery. Second one was replaced free, 3rd one, I paid for 1/2. Didn't like that. Battery should last longer than that. We've got 40,000 miles on it. Still have the original tires. Lots of room. Handles great.

I hate blue

Vehicle

2007 Hyundai Veracruz GLS 4dr SUV (3.8L 6cyl 6A)

Review

By the title you've surmised it's blue in color. Buying at carmax you don't get a color choice. But color aside our 07 Vera is one great ride more standard features than any vehicle I've ever owned. We have a big family 2 kids who are going to be monsters and 2 dogs who are monsters. My only concern is the light Grey interior not good for boys, very supportive seats, good lumbar support, great exterior views, no blind spots, headlights a different story projector lowbeams have a sharp cutoff of light very good. The highbeams shine into lowflying aircraft. Adjustment I'll have to call on NASA for that. Screrws, gears, plastic not enough time. Or patience well about run out of characters.........
