CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2008 Veracruz has a minor trend of complaints where the valve cover leaks oil onto the alternator, causing alternator failure. The problem starts with the battery warning light & typically all the other warning lights coming on in quick succession. Luckily, that problem was covered in a 2014 recall.
Overall, It's a solid reliable vehicle with no major problems reported.
The switch on the steering wheel to telescope in and out..up and down quit working...the auto adjustment works part time...Hyundai dealer says that was an ongoing problem with Veracruz's steering wheels but would not be able to cover the costs per Hyundai...another disappointment from Hyundai....can't for the life of me understand why auto companies won't FIX their mistakes....well yeah I do..MONEY! Don't they realize that if the STAND by their products, people would be loyal? That's exactly why I stopped buying American made cars!!!!
