great car, I bought it with 178000km
Problems:
It built rust in the rear fenders
head gasket cracked leading to overheating issues

Positive:
fuel consumption is AMAZING. It was as good as my civic 2012.
great performance, I did many trips back and forth from montreal to toronto with no issues.

I had a 2012 civic for 2 years. I bought it already 2 years old.
I live in Montreal and winter and salt are very aggressive on the car here.
So I had no rust at all in the car and neither did any rust proofing.
The car is amazing on gas, NO MAINTENANCE at all, very reliable, performance is great.
The BAD THING is the internal room. Very small internally and not a family car at all, it was very challenging with a baby seat as we had to put the front passenger seat forward so a big adult would not sit in the front neither in the back, so something to consider if you have a baby. On the other hand, the trunk is very roomy.
Apart from that they changed the design in 2013 and again in 2016 but I was very disappointed to see that there is no flat floor in the rear sits in the 2016 civic which makes it even more challenging for adults in the back.

I have purchased in 2014 my 2009 Veracruz GL FWD. I Live in Montreal so the winter here is aggressive enough.
Overall it is an excellent car, I have purchased at a very good price(also because it is not a 4x4), very well maintained, etc.
I was badly surprised with the fuel consumption, it is simply TERRIBLE. I am doing 17 to 20 L/100KM which is insane.
I have already cleaned fuel injectors, filters, etc etc and did not improve.
Another thing is that in winter time, when starting the car for the first time in the day there is a very loud knock on the engine. Some say that it is because of the lack of the oil in the lifters... well, I do not know but this is a concern to me.
Another concern: RUST
Even taking a lot of care I noticed rust forming at the bottom of the front doors and behind the read bumper, so something to watch.

It is important to say that even though it is not in production by Hyundai anymore, the veracruz still has a current design, it is a beautiful truck, amazing the number of courtesy lights and special things it has, internal room is also fabulous to a point that an adult like me (6,3ft) can sit comfortably in the 3rd row seats.
Also, the FWD in the winter is perfectly fine even in rough conditions, the traction control does an excellent job.
