ODI #11746127ENGINE

I am filing a safety complaint regarding my Hyundai vehicle after experiencing a sudden engine failure that appears consistent with known rod bearing and engine defects affecting certain Hyundai engines. While driving, my vehicle began making a knocking noise and shortly thereafter suffered catastrophic engine failure. The engine lost power and became inoperable, requiring the vehicle to be towed. This failure occurred without any prior indication that the engine was about to fail. My concern is that this type of engine failure creates a significant safety hazard because it can occur unexpectedly while driving, potentially causing a loss of power in traffic and increasing the risk of a crash. The dealership inspected the vehicle and engine but did not report excessive sludge buildup. I have provided available maintenance records showing that oil changes were performed during my ownership. Despite this, there appears to be disagreement regarding the cause of the failure. I am aware of reports involving rod bearing and engine failures in similar Hyundai vehicles and believe NHTSA should investigate whether this failure is related to a broader manufacturing or design defect. The cost of replacing the engine is substantial, and consumers may be placed at risk if these failures occur while vehicles are being operated on public roads. I am requesting that NHTSA review this issue and determine whether additional investigation, recalls, or other corrective actions are warranted.

ODI #11745682ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while driving at undisclosed speeds, the vehicle was consuming an excessive amount of engine oil. The contact stated that oil was frequently added to the engine. The vehicle became inoperable. The vehicle was towed to a dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the catalytic converter needed to be replaced. The catalytic converter was replaced; however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was returned to the dealer for inspection, and the catalytic converter was replaced a second time. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure persisted. No additional repairs were performed. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 86,000.

ODI #11743121ENGINE

2017 Hyundai Tucson | VIN: [XXX] | Mileage: 75,000 I have owned this vehicle for approximately five years and have experienced severe excessive oil consumption for the past two to three years. The issue was first discovered when the vehicle entered protective mode due to critically low oil levels despite a routine oil change having been performed only a few months prior. I am currently required to add approximately one quart of oil every month to maintain safe operating levels. I visited an authorized Hyundai dealership to have an oil consumption test performed. The dealership informed me that if the test confirmed excessive consumption, I would be required to pay out of pocket for an engine replacement. I declined, as Hyundai Motor America has publicly acknowledged this exact defect in the 2017 Tucson through NHTSA Recall 21V727000, multiple Technical Service Bulletins, and a class action settlement covering 2014-2021 Tucson vehicles with the Nu 2.0-liter GDI engine. My VIN was found ineligible on the class action settlement website despite the acknowledged defect. Hyundai has admitted this engine suffers from premature bearing wear, excessive oil consumption, and risk of engine failure and fire. I am requesting NHTSA investigate why my VIN falls outside current recall coverage despite presenting identical symptoms to affected vehicles.

Catalytic converter has now failed twice with only 105,000 miles

ODI #11743306ENGINE

The engine (connecting rod bearings in the 2.0L Nu GDI engine) failed. The vehicle entered limp mode with DTC P1326, then died on the road and the engine seized completely (will not turn by hand when attempted; only clicks on starter). It is currently at First Hyundai dealer in [XXX], under Repair Order #XXXand available for inspection. The vehicle suddenly lost power and died while driving on the road. This created a significant risk of an accident or being stranded in traffic. I was on a busy highway and almost got hit twice. There is also a known fire risk associated with this exact defect (oil leaking onto hot engine components), as stated in Recall 209 (NHTSA 21V727). The vehicle was towed to First Hyundai. They have documented the no-start/seized condition on Repair Order #XXX. A prior independent scanner reading showed P1326 before the code was cleared. The dealer has not performed the full diagnostic inspection (scheduled around June 11). Hyundai Corporate (Claim #XXX) has been notified but has not responded after multiple escalation emails. The vehicle first went into limp mode ("Engine Protection Mode") with DTC P1326 on the scanner. Shortly after, the engine died completely and would not restart. This occurred after Recall 209 (bearing/KSDS campaign) was completed on XXX. Additional Details: This is a known issue with premature connecting rod bearing wear. The dealer is refusing to provide a loaner/rental upon drop-off, which contradicts TSB 22-01-023H (Dealer Best Practices for P1326 vehicles). The vehicle has been inoperable since 6/4 ..with no resolution. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Left rear passenger door latch failure to open either from inside or outside. This is a mechanical failure of the cables operating the latch. A passenger could not easily exit the vehicle in an emergency situation, also there is no way short of breaking the glass to easily access or if necessary extricate the passenger in an emergency situation. As evidenced from online searches and forums this failure is all too common and has been addressed with a narrow set of vehicles with an extended warranty applied to this failure. This is an issue of safety. There needs to be a recall to upgrade affected vehicles and their door mechanisms.

ODI #11739215ENGINE

I am submitting a complaint regarding a 2017 Hyundai Tucson Ultimate AWD equipped with the 1.6L Turbo Gamma GDI engine. My vehicle currently has approximately 127,000 miles and has experienced sudden engine knocking consistent with rod bearing failure and/or catastrophic internal engine damage. The vehicle has been properly maintained, including regular oil changes. However, the engine began consuming excessive oil without warning. Upon inspection by an independent repair facility, the engine was found to have extremely low oil levels despite being within the normal oil change interval. After refilling the oil, the engine continued making severe knocking noises, and the repair facility advised that the engine is likely non-repairable and requires replacement. This failure appears materially similar to the rod bearing and engine failure issues already widely documented in Hyundai/Kia engine defect investigations and class action settlements involving related Gamma and GDI engine platforms. I have learned that Hyundai extended warranties for certain vehicles with similar engine defects up to 15 years/150,000 miles; however, my specific Tucson trim/engine configuration does not appear included despite experiencing the same type of failure. This vehicle has also previously required major drivetrain repairs under warranty, including two transmission replacements and turbocharger replacement. My concern is both financial and safety-related. A sudden engine failure or seizure while driving could create a serious roadway hazard and risk of loss of power in traffic. Additionally, Hyundai dealerships have advised that replacement engines for this vehicle are no longer readily available. I believe Hyundai should further investigate whether the 2017 Tucson 1.6T Gamma GDI engine should be included in existing engine defect warranty extensions and/or recalls.

The vehicle has experienced life-threatening safety defects during operation; shaking, hesitation, and stalling in high-speed traffic. The vehicle unexpectedly stalled/lost power while driving, putting myself and others in direct risk of collision. The Hyundai dealership claimed it needed an Actuator Gasket replacement, Throttle Body replacement, and ECM/TCM update. The vehicle had NO warning lights until after it stalled, then warning lights illuminated briefly. The Hyundai dealership claimed repairs were "completed" 5/8/26; within 72 hours of "completion" the vehicle's symptoms reappeared. The Hyundai Executive Case Manager has made NO efforts to resolve this LIFE-THREATENING SAFETY issue. This has put myself and children in danger and is legally unsafe to drive.

My 2017 Hyundai Tucson is experiencing dangerous, sudden engine stalling, which are symptoms directly matching Service Campaign T1B. These critical safety issues surfaced following a total engine replacement in June 2025. Despite the vehicle being within the 12-month/12,000 mile workmanship warranty, the dealership is refusing to honor this coverage or offer goodwill assistance. My claim is based on a documented pattern of physical and technical negligence: - Failure to Update Software: The dealership failed to perform the mandatory ECM/TCM software integration (Campaign T1B) during engine swap, which is required to prevent the exact stalling I am now experiencing. - Dismissal of Warning Lights (Code P0456): One day after the engine replacement was “completed,” I returned to the dealership because the Check Engine Light illuminated with Code P0456. This was dismissed by the service provider without a proper diagnostic resolution, despite being a direct indicator of improper vacuum line reconnection during the engine installation. - Mechanical Negligence (Coolant Leak): Post-engine swap, the vehicle developed a coolant leak, which was a direct result of improper reassembly. Additional proof of the lack of due diligence during the repair. The lack of follow-through, combined with the dismissal of a life-safety defect and poor physical workmanship, suggests a total failure in the case management process. I am urgently requesting assistance to resolve this hazardous situation.

ODI #11735176UNKNOWN OR OTHER,VISIBILITY/WIPER2 INJURIES

The panoramic sunroof glass suddenly shattered while the vehicle was being driven on the interstate, with no visible impact, object strike, or prior damage observed. The component involved is the sunroof glass panel, and it has already been removed and replaced through insurance repairs, so it is not available for inspection (however, pictures are available upon request). The incident created a loud, explosion-like sound and resulted in glass fragments falling into the interior of the vehicle, including onto the driver and the front-seat passenger, causing minor injuries. This also created a significant safety risk due to driver distraction, panic, and the potential for more serious injury while the vehicle was in motion at highway speeds. The issue has not been reproduced or independently duplicated by a dealer or service center; however, it was inspected and documented by the insurance company and repair facility during the claims and repair process, which confirmed that full glass replacement was necessary. The vehicle or component has been inspected by insurance representatives and a repair shop, but it has not been inspected by the manufacturer or law enforcement. There were no warning lamps, dashboard messages, or any prior symptoms indicating a problem before the failure occurred, and the sunroof appeared to fail suddenly and without any advance indication while the vehicle was in motion.

ODI #11733137ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,ENGINE

The vehicle has a difficult time turning over when cranking, the RPMs are sticking and the car periodically shuts off at red lights. Several warning lights pop up when it won't crank and then other warnings when the car just completely shuts off at red lights. I drive the interstate in [XXX] daily for work, so with the engine stalling my safety is at risk every time I drive it. Likewise when it won't crank, my safety is at risk. I had two Hyundai recalls updated in my car in 2022, Hyundai Recall 209 which was a connecting rod bearing test and my car passed so they installed the other Hyundai Recall 966 which was software update for the knock sensor detection system to alert the driver of future issues. Those issues are now current. The software is detecting a critical failure which is why the car is shutting off - entering limp mode, or the engine is failing. On April 9th through the 11th, 2026 my vehicle was inspected by a Hyundai dealership, where a technician identified a developing engine concern and advised me to continue driving the vehicle.

To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally escalate an unresolved safety issue involving my 2017 Hyundai Tucson (VIN: [XXX] ) that has now been ongoing for over two years. I have made repeated attempts to complete a safety recall repair through multiple authorized Hyundai dealerships, including Hyundai of [XXX] and Hyundai in [XXX] . Despite scheduling several appointments, I have consistently been turned away, had appointments effectively canceled, or been told that no one is available to perform the repair. This has occurred across more than one location and over an extended period of time. This is unacceptable. A federally mandated safety recall especially one involving the engine is not optional and must be completed within a reasonable timeframe. The continued failure to complete this repair places me at risk and reflects a serious breakdown in both dealership accountability and corporate oversight. Additionally, my vehicle has experienced significant paint chipping. While I understand this may not be a safety recall issue, it has affected the overall condition and value of my vehicle. Given the prolonged delay and inconvenience I have experienced, I am requesting that this concern also be reviewed for potential goodwill repair or coverage. At this point, I am requesting immediate action: Assignment of a case manager A confirmed and honored appointment date for recall repair at a dealership that is able to complete the work Written confirmation that the repair will be completed without further delay Information regarding a loaner vehicle or transportation if the repair requires extended time Please note that I am filing a formal complaint with the Illinois Attorney General’s Office due to the repeated failure to complete a federally required safety recall. If this matter is not resolved promptly, I will pursue additional consumer protection and legal remedies. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

On March 10, 2026, my 2017 Hyundai Tucson entered 'Limp Home Mode' while driving, a known safety defect that causes a sudden loss of engine power. Diagnostic testing confirmed error code P1326 (Knock Sensor Detection System - KSDS). Despite this vehicle being covered under the Theta II Engine Class Action Settlement (Recall 209), which provides a 15-year/150,000-mile extended warranty for this specific issue, the dealership (Jim Ellis Hyundai of Atlanta) is refusing to perform the warrantied repair. Instead, the dealership has provided an estimate (#XXX) attempting to charge me $816.22 for the knock sensor replacement. They are also withholding the full GDS diagnostic scan reports and freeze frame data despite multiple written requests. Furthermore, the dealership is threatening to charge daily storage fees while actively denying a mandated safety repair. This refusal to honor the settlement warranty leaves the vehicle in an unsafe, unrepaired condition. This vehicle is a subject of the In re: Hyundai and Kia Engine Litigation II settlement. The refusal of the dealership to perform the KSDS-related repair (P1326}) is a direct violation of the court-approved settlement terms and a failure to address a documented safety defect.

When I restarted the vehicle, the warning message disappeared even though the vehicle would not realistically have cooled down that quickly. The issue concerns me because it could create a dangerous situation in traffic if the vehicle loses power or hesitates to accelerate when pulling into traffic or climbing a hill. The problem has occurred without warning and does not leave and persistent warning lights afterwards. I am very scared to drive this car, especially when I have my child with me. If I need to move out of the way and someone is driving that is not paying attention, there will be an accident because of the hesitation and the non-movement when I accelerate. I am reporting this issue in case it is related to a defect with the transmission system in this vehicle.

The contact's wife owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that the engine was consuming an excessive amount of engine oil. During frequent oil checks, the oil on the dipstick was low soon after an oil change. The vehicle was taken to the dealer approximately 15 times for oil consumption issues. Several oil consumption tests were performed on the vehicle for every 1,000 miles driven; however, the results varied from normal to low oil consumption. The engine had been partially disassembled twice, and pictures were taken and sent to the manufacturer. The manufacturer approved a combustion chamber cleaning to be performed on the vehicle; however, the failure persisted. The contact had spoken with the manufacturer several times and was provided a case number. The manufacturer ultimately denied the request for an engine replacement. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 63,547.

While driving on the interstate at highway speed, my 2017 Hyundai Tucson lost power without any warning lights or prior symptoms. The vehicle experienced an immediate loss of propulsion while I was traveling in traffic, creating a dangerous situation because surrounding vehicles were also moving at highway speed & I had to quicky maneuver the vehicle to the shoulder with no power. The vehicle had approximately 73,861 miles at the time of the failure. After the incident, the vehicle was taken to a Hyundai dealership and diagnosed with a burned exhaust valve requiring replacement of the cylinder head & valve. The estimated cost of repair provided by the dealership was approximately 7550. The vehicle had no prior warning lights or symptoms before the sudden loss of power. A sudden engine failure resulting in loss of propulsion at highway speed presents a serious safety risk to both the driver and surrounding traffic. This was an extremely dangerous failure.

I have poured quarts and quarts of oil in this vehicle because it burns oil at an alarming rate until it eventually runs dry and the engine seizes.

Purchased used via Carvana in Sept 2025, check engine light came on while driving it home indicating a pre-existing mechanical defect. We submitted the claim through Silver Rock (Carvana's warranty company) and brought to their approved mechanic. The recommended the following repairs, several that were denied by Carvana/SilverRock: spark plugs, alternator, serpentine belt, fuel injection service, electrical ignition coil. A month later check engine light illuminated again and through further diagnostics the mechanic found that 2 of the faulty spark plugs were an incorrect model/fit for our vehicle and reported that information which resulted in replacement being approved (a month after initial request). Fast forward to January 2026 we experienced the widely reported knocking noise while driving coming from the engine and had it towed. The damage is a thrown rod and damaged bearing, which is consistent with the current oil consumption litigation, requiring engine replacement. Our 2017 Tucson 1.6 L turbocharge is not included in the recall. Furthermore, Carfax report shows last oil change reported was 2023. Carvana confirms an oil change is part of their 150 point inspection before a sale, however unable to provide me with documentation and failed to report a record of the work to Carfax. There are many instances of negligence on Carvana's part from failure to provide record of maintenance, which is also failure to adhere to their standard policy, and declining recommended service directly from their approved mechanic, knowing that this vehicle could be impacted by the well known defects through Hyundai.

2017 Hyundai Tucson SE vehicle mileage approx. 54,000 miles Was driving on a Highway doing approx. 65-70mph within 30 minutes of the 1hr and 1/2 drive I had lost complete POWER STEERING. Wheel stiffened up and was scary and difficult to lane change to a slower lane or attempt to pull over at 11:00PM due too safety and could not pull over for over an 1 hour until I was home safely. Had to hold the wheel tightly for an hour. It was very difficult to turn and enter my double wide driveway and took 3 times to get car straight enough and pull in without Power Steering. Turned vehicle off and I had looked into possible issues with the (EPS) Electric Power Steering and read possible loss of Power Steering check MDPS Fuse in vehicle Interior Fuse Panel for blown fuse and all was Fine with that Fuse.. Then checked MDPS Fuse Panel in engine compartment near battery and found no issue on the long circuit fuse for the MDPS. After researching 2017 Tucson EPS issues I ran a test by Turning Key on and turn Wheel all the way too Right and leave it there for a minute then turn wheel all the way too the Left and leave there for a minute ,then turn steering wheel till wheels are straight and turn key off. Then start car and see if Power Steering comes back when turning steering wheel in which it did but I'm still skeptical if that was the Fix. Hyundai Car dealership wants to charge me $250 too run tests and diagnostics with computer system. Why should I have to pay for this since there have been numerous recalls on 2017 Tucson and the failure rate on some of the Electronics and Safety features and Engine issues and was originally in for a New Paint job for the Recall. And I just received a notification for the Anti-Theft Ignition Cylinder Protector hardware too be installed Free of charge for the ignition and hardware to be added.

Following the knock sensor detection system update, this car has a P1326 code that forces it into limp mode. Occurs during moderate-hard acceleration, e.g. getting on a highway. The car is limited to ≤2000 RPM and ≤ 45 mph, and rapidly decelerates to that speed if necessary. Acceleration is very limited. This occurs roughly every two weeks, despite having a brand new sensor installed by Hyundai. Hyundai has also allegedly performed cleaning on the sensor and related parts.

The vehicle has a transmission (powertrain) malfunction that first appeared in July 2025, a few weeks after I purchased the vehicle and after the warranty had expired. At the time the issue began, the vehicle had well under 80,000 miles. The transmission slips, fails to properly engage, and cannot provide sufficient power, particularly when accelerating or driving uphill. The vehicle struggles to move forward and behaves unpredictably during normal driving conditions. This defect has put my safety and the safety of others at risk. On one occasion, the transmission failed while I was driving and I became stuck in the middle of an intersection, unable to accelerate, creating a serious traffic hazard. The issue has been reproduced consistently and has persisted despite repeated transmission fluid services. Multiple mechanics have inspected the vehicle and have indicated that the problem is not due to lack of maintenance, but instead is likely caused by the transmission not being properly filled with transmission fluid at the time of manufacture. Despite servicing, the problem continues, indicating an internal or manufacturing-related defect. I have also been in contact with multiple owners of the same make and model vehicle who report the same transmission failure, suggesting this is a widespread issue rather than an isolated incident.

am submitting a safety complaint regarding my Hyundai vehicle due to repeated engine power loss (limp mode), excessive oil loss, and a denied engine recall replacement. I initially brought my vehicle to the dealership after experiencing engine power loss/limp mode, engine oil loss, and illuminated check engine warning lights. The dealership confirmed that my vehicle was covered under an engine recall and stated that the recall procedure was completed. As part of this process, the dealership performed an engine combustion-related service and charged me approximately $1,600. After this repair, I drove the vehicle for approximately 1,000 miles. When I returned the vehicle to the dealership, the vehicle entered limp mode on the same day it was brought in, and the check engine light was illuminated again. The dealership advised me that the vehicle had lost an excessive amount of engine oil during the 1,000-mile period. Due to the continued engine issues and oil loss, the dealership requested a full engine replacement under the recall. However, Hyundai denied the engine recall replacement request. The vehicle’s repeated loss of power, excessive oil consumption, and limp mode create a serious safety concern, especially while driving at normal road speeds. I am concerned that the recall remedy was ineffective and that the denial of an engine replacement places drivers at risk. I am requesting that NHTSA review this matter for potential safety defects and improper handling of a known engine recall issue.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds or accelerating from idle, there was a knocking sound coming from the engine. While accelerating from idle, the vehicle failed to exceed 30 MPH, requiring that the driver slowly accelerate and gradually increase the speed. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a certified mechanic who diagnosed the vehicle with transmission failure. The mechanic replaced the brakes and tires. The vehicle was then taken to the dealer, who diagnosed failures with the muffler assembly and catalytic converter related to the failure to accelerate. The failure persisted, and the vehicle was returned to the dealer, who confirmed the noises coming from the engine while the accelerator pedal was depressed, with a burning odor, and oil issues. After five visits to the dealer, an oil leak from the drain plug was determined. The drain plug and oil pan were replaced a year and six months later. The vehicle continued to fail to accelerate properly, making it difficult to drive uphill. The vehicle was taken to another dealer, Niagara Hyundai of Grand Island (1910 Alvin Rd, Grand Island, NY 14072), who confirmed that the vehicle was not safe to drive. The catalytic converter was replaced again but the failure persisted, and there was no engine oil in the vehicle. While driving 65 MPH, the vehicle started shaking. The contact pulled over to the side of the road and waited approximately 10–15 minutes before continuing to drive at 50 MPH. The contact inspected the vehicle and noticed that the engine was hot. The vehicle was towed back to the second dealer, who performed an oil consumption test requiring the contact to drive 1,000 miles. The test determined the engine oil level was extremely low. The dealer suggested a chamber cleaning, but the request was still pending. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and opened a case. The failure mileage was approximately 63,000.

Issue was first noticed in October 2025 - there are roughly 70k miles on the vehicle. It is a 2017 vehicle, and has regular service (oil, inspection). There was a class action lawsuit for this issue (wylie v hyundai), which was settled prior to the purchase of the vehicle. Vehicle stutters when shifting into and out of first gear. A local mechanic and hyundai both confirmed that it was a transmission defect. The Hyundai dealership initially thought it was an actuator issue, but has since said that it is a faulty gear assembly. it has a DCT (dual clutch transmission). Vehicle suddenly stops and is erratic when driving. Coming out of a stop risks the vehicle shuddering; going through an intersection or turning cross traffic is extremely dangerous as the vehicle could stop momentarily and cause a collision. Vehicle is unable to maintain flow of traffic. The problem appears to be widespread - there are various forums we found where others have this same issue. There were no warnings on the dashboard prior to the issue. When issue appeared a check engine light was displayed.

I’m submitting this complaint to report what appears to be a serious safety-related engine issue in my 2017 Hyundai Tucson Sport 2WD with the 1.6L DI Turbo engine [T-GDI GAMMA]. I’m aware of NHTSA Recall 21V-727, which covers 2017 Hyundai Tucson models with the 2.0L engine for premature engine bearing wear. The symptoms covered by that recall are nearly identical to the symptoms my vehicle is now showing. My VIN shows no open recalls or service campaigns on Hyundai’s website, but the problems I’m experiencing match those found in many other consumer reports for this same year, make, and model. My vehicle has only 80,000 miles and has had regular maintenance. Examples include loud knocking from the engine that rises and falls with RPM, and metal shavings in the oil. One complaint that reflects the same pattern can be found in NHTSA ID 11680114, which describes engine knocking and metal debris with no warning lights or alerts. My vehicle has also shown no warning indicators. These issues pose a safety risk because they can lead to sudden engine failure while driving. Based on the volume of similar complaints and the overlap with the existing recall, I’m concerned that the defect may affect more than the engines currently covered under 21V-727. I’m requesting that NHTSA review this matter and determine whether Hyundai should extend or expand the recall to include vehicles equipped with the 2017 Hyundai Tucson Sport 2WD 1.6L DI Turbo DOHC 4cyl. Please investigate this issue and hold Hyundai accountable if these defects extend beyond the vehicles already listed.

Component/system: Engine / powertrain – excessive engine oil consumption. The original engine is still in the vehicle and is available for inspection upon request. On 11/7/2025 my dealer (Ourisman Hyundai in [XXX] ) added 2 quarts of oil at 90,999 miles after the dipstick showed a very low level. After that visit, we drove approximately 713 miles (mostly highway, including a college visit trip), and the oil level again dropped close to the same low point on the dipstick. On 11/22/2025 at 2:10 PM, with mileage at 91,815, the dipstick again showed a significantly low oil level. I am concerned that this abnormal oil consumption could lead to sudden engine failure or loss of power while driving at highway speeds, putting my family and others on the road at risk. This vehicle is used regularly for my daughter’s college visits and everyday transportation. The dealer has acknowledged the concern, previously performed a combustion chamber cleaning on 8/11/2025 (Invoice #XXX), and has submitted a request to Hyundai for assistance. However, a formal oil consumption test or official diagnosis has NOT yet been completed, so the exact cause is UNKNOWN. The vehicle has been inspected by the dealer, and Hyundai Motor America has opened a case, but there has been no final decision or repair yet.

My 2017 Hyundai Tucson is experiencing severe oil consumption, which appears to be related to a known manufacturing defect affecting Hyundai engines from this period. My vehicle is burning through oil rapidly between normal oil change intervals, and it has begun showing signs of low oil levels despite no external leaks. This creates a serious safety concern because the engine can fail without warning. The dealership has acknowledged that excessive oil consumption is a known issue for this engine but refuses to provide assistance because I do not have “enough oil change documentation” over the years. However, this issue is not caused by lack of maintenance — it is a widespread internal defect that Hyundai has issued multiple technical service bulletins for. My car has been maintained, and oil changes were performed at regular intervals, even if I do not have complete paperwork. The rapid oil burning is ongoing and dangerous. I am concerned about the engine seizing, stalling, or failing while driving, which could lead to a crash. This is a safety hazard that should be investigated and included with other Hyundai engine cases. Requested Action: I am asking NHTSA to investigate this oil consumption defect affecting the 2017 Hyundai Tucson and require Hyundai to provide a remedy, including repair or engine replacement, regardless of perfect maintenance documentation, since this problem stems from a manufacturing flaw.

Hyundai Corporate acknowledged silicone use would be “shoddy work,” yet refuses further review, stating they’ve “never had a customer dispute something within 18 months later.” If Hyundai engines arrive sealed and shops don’t handle insulation, silicone should not be present.

Had an oil change on September 29th. The mechanic brought to my attention metal shavings in the oil and advised that I should get rid of the car because it won’t last much longer. It drove fine for a day until the next afternoon I was driving on the highway with my children and the engine started knocking loudly. The car stopped accelerating past 45 mph. I was close to my house fortunately but barely made it as it sounded like the engine would blow. It is now sitting in my driveway still knocking when I start it and don’t feel safe driving it anywhere. There were 0 warning lights. I was not aware of the engine issues these cars had until I did some research and looks like it’s very common. Seeing some people had luck getting replacement engines in the past and many others not. This needs to be addressed and Hyundai needs to be held responsible for the awful oil consumption issue resulting in failing engines. We should not have to provide proof of maintenance when clearly this is an issue regardless.

NHTSA Complaint – 2017 Hyundai Tucson Oil Consumption, Engine Defect, and Branded Title I am filing this complaint regarding my 2017 Hyundai Tucson, which suffers from abnormal oil consumption and engine problems. In addition, Hyundai Motor Company internally “branded” the title without disclosure, which voided my eligibility for warranty coverage. These issues create both serious safety risks and consumer protection concerns. 1.Oil Consumption and Engine Issues •This Tucson has had oil consumption problems since the first owner, which I only discovered a year after purchasing the vehicle. •The vehicle burns oil excessively between service intervals, often requiring top-offs after just a few hundred miles. •Critically, the low oil pressure warning light provides no early warning. It only activates once oil levels are already dangerously low, leaving no safe margin to protect the engine. •On multiple occasions, I was unaware the engine oil had dropped to unsafe levels until the vehicle was already at risk of engine damage. •The engine makes knocking/tapping noises, hesitates under acceleration, and has rough idling when oil levels drop — all signs of internal engine damage that could lead to sudden failure while driving. 2.Hyundai’s Branded Title Practice •Roughly one year after purchasing from CarMax, I learned that Hyundai had internally branded the title in their own system due to oil consumption reported by the first owner. •This branding was never disclosed to me or to CarMax, and the official state-issued title and Carfax report both showed “clean.” •Hyundai uses this internal branding to void the extended engine warranty that should have applied to my vehicle. •Despite repeated requests, Hyundai has refused to provide documentation of when or why this branding occurred. 3.Warranty and Safety Concerns •Hyundai has issued Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) and extended warranties for engine failures caused by piston rings and bearings

My 2017 Hyundai Tucson has been chonking out and having acceleration problems. I thought it was because of AC running. When I took it in for inspection my mechanic stated it was misfiring. I am meticulous about routine maintenance (I.e. tire rotation and/or replacement, oil change, inspection, etc), as well as whatever if any repairs are needed. I immediately reached out to my local Hyundai dealer but they never responded. It should be corrected by Hyundai and a recall issued. After researching the issue I see I’m not the only one with a problem. The 1.6 L engine should have been recalled because apparently the same turbo engine in the GDI model was. I have all my maintenance records to support my claim. Come Hyundai!!! I thought you stood behind your vehicles?????

My engine has been burning oil. The engine light has been on for just over the past year because an O2 sensor in the catalytic converter needs replacing, however, this is unrelated to the issue. The oil light started flickering earlier this year (approx 8 months ago) but would never stay on. I called my mechanic and they recommended I check the oil. Sure enough it needed oil. Since then I have had to continuously add oil in between oil changes, however, the oil light rarely comes on or flickers to indicate this need, I just need to check. The engine has been making a ticking sound and that gets louder or worse I have noticed as the engine burns the oil. I have read up on other 2017 Hyundai Tucsons having the same engine failures and that some are covered under recall but mine does not seem to be. My mechanic has informed me that the engine needs to be rebuilt in order to fix the problem. I am worried about the car dying on me or causing an accident because of the failing engine. Yes, this problem has been confirmed by my mechanic.

My 2017 Hyundai Tucson Limited 1.6L Turbo (with 7-speed EcoShift DCT) has ongoing transmission problems. The vehicle hesitates, jolts, and sometimes fails to accelerate from a stop, which creates a serious safety risk when entering traffic or crossing intersections. The problem has been reproduced and confirmed by the Hyundai dealership in Fairfield, CT. They diagnosed the transmission and recommended a complete replacement at a cost of over $7,000. This issue matches the defect described in NHTSA Recall 16V628000 and Hyundai Service Campaign T1B, which involved the same 7-speed EcoShift DCT in 2016–2017 Tucson models. However, my VIN was not included even though I am experiencing the exact same safety defect. No warning lamps appeared before the hesitation/judder began. The safety risk is significant because the vehicle can fail to accelerate as expected in traffic, increasing the chance of a crash.

Hyundai Tucson 2017 – Known Transmission Defect Ignored I own a 2017 Hyundai Tucson with the dual-clutch transmission. For months I experienced serious hesitation and sputtering when accelerating from a stop or low speed—a clear safety risk when trying to merge into traffic or cross intersections. On July 23, 2025, I dropped my vehicle at Huffines Hyundai in Plano. It sat there for nearly a month until August 21, when they finally admitted they could reproduce the issue. The problem matched exactly what Hyundai itself identified in its own service bulletins regarding this model’s transmission. Despite acknowledging it’s a known defect, Hyundai: Refused to cover the repair, Would not even reimburse my $200 third-party warranty deductible, Has failed to issue a recall, leaving countless owners with the same unsafe problem. This is deplorable customer care. Hyundai and its dealerships know this defect exists, can reproduce it, and yet leave customers to pay out of pocket for a manufacturer-caused safety hazard.

While driving to work on I-26 in the far left lane at approximately 55 mph, my vehicle suddenly and completely shut off without warning. The engine power was lost instantly, forcing the car to come to an abrupt stop in live interstate traffic. I had no prior indication of a problem—no warning lights, no messages, no abnormal performance. It took three attempts to restart the vehicle. When it finally restarted, the engine made a loud knocking noise, and the car could only move at a dangerously slow crawl. I had to cross multiple lanes of high-speed traffic to reach the right shoulder, nearly causing several accidents in the process. Other drivers had to brake hard and swerve to avoid colliding with me. This situation could have easily resulted in a multi-vehicle crash, severe injury, or death. After pulling over and shutting the vehicle off, I checked the oil dipstick and found it completely dry. The engine had failed with no warning whatsoever. The vehicle was later inspected at an independent service center and I was told the engine must be replaced, and that the vehicle is not safe to drive. I am now left without reliable transportation due to this sudden failure. This incident represents an extreme safety hazard. Losing all engine power in the far left lane of an interstate at highway speeds placed my life, and the lives of countless other motorists, in immediate danger. The outcome could easily have been catastrophic. To reiterate: the engine failed without any warning or indication, creating a life-threatening emergency situation. This is a critical safety defect that requires urgent investigation.

I am the original owner of my 2017 Hyundai Tucson. I am a [XXX] retired teacher. I became aware that my 2017 Hyundai Tucson was consuming oil in August 2024. I took my Tucson to Buerkle Hyundai, where it was purchased, and they set my vehicle up for oil consumption testing. Every 1,000-1,100 miles my car's oil level needed to be checked by an authorized Hyundai dealership. This required time and planning. I began working with Luther Hyundai in Burnsville, MN for testing as they are close to my house and requested to take over when I brought my vehicle in for the first check. This engine issue is covered by my 10 year/100,000 mile warranty. My vehicle's oil level was checked as required for the testing. Hyundai considers a vehicle burning 1 quart of oil or less per 1,000 miles to be acceptable. My vehicle consistently consumed oil and when checked May 9, 2025, in 817 miles my car had consumed 1.5 quarts of oil. My vehicle had 88,689 miles on it. My car met the requirements for a new engine, which I'd been told was the warranty repair. Luther Hyundai, Burnsville, MN submitted the repair request. Next I was told I'd have to provide oil change invoices. I brought in oil change invoices for the past four years. Then I was told I'd need to provide invoices dating back to the purchase of the car, 8 years of maintenance records. That seemed extreme but I provided those. Somehow Hyundai Warranty Division is stating my vehicle maintenance is negligent despite having my oil change records that proved otherwise. They have denied warranty repair. Luther Hyundai's service manager wrote emails stating that my vehicle had been well taken care of and serviced. Hyundai Warranty division refused the repair again. When I asked for a written statement of reasoning I was told they could not send one. My vehicle is not safe to drive. I cannot understand how Hyundai can deny a valid warranty claim. I need my Tucson repaired and the warranty honored. I'm unable to upload all files. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The turbocharger on my 2017 Hyundai Tucson 1.6T has failed three times within one year. Most recently, the dealership diagnosed the turbo’s wastegate actuator as being completely open, resulting in severe power loss and unsafe driving conditions. The replacement turbo from an authorized parts supplier is still under a 5-year warranty, and the dealership confirmed there were no oil feed or installation issues contributing to this repeated failure. Component/System Failed: Turbocharger (wastegate actuator stuck fully open). The failed turbocharger is available for inspection upon request. Safety Risk: The vehicle experienced severe loss of power while and also the dealer made me aware there is a valve stuck in the turbo itself and if i drive it it could blow the motor up, which made merging and accelerating unsafe and could have resulted in a collision. The lack of engine power when entering traffic or climbing steep grades put both myself and other drivers at risk. Dealer Confirmation: The issue has been confirmed and documented by a Hyundai dealership service center. This is the third turbocharger replacement within one year for the same vehicle, indicating a potential defect or underlying issue. Warning Lamps/Symptoms: The check engine light illuminated (P0299 – Underboost) prior to the failure. I also experienced significant loss of acceleration and increased fuel consumption. These symptoms began days before the dealership confirmed the wastegate actuator failure. Resolution Sought: I am requesting Hyundai Consumer Affairs review this case due to repeated turbo failures, potential underlying defects, and financial burden. I would like to know what Hyundai can do to address the repeated turbocharger failures and associated labor costs.

My 2017 Hyundai Tucson 1.6 liter is experiencing severe engine issues that closely mirror those subject to recent class action lawsuits. The engine exhibits excessive oil consumption. I have experienced a sudden loss of power on roadways in traffic as well as on the highway. This issue happened just today. Unfortunately due to a loss of smell, I have been unable to smell if there has been burning oil, however in between my last two oil changes (I only bought the car in October) I had to go it to get it refilled or refill it myself. I use full synthetic oil as well. I brought it into a reputable mechanic and I have been told if I continue to drive the vehicle the excessive oil consumption will lead to premature engine failure, potentially causing a dangerous stall or accident, putting myself and other motorists or pedestrians at risk. The mechanic received codes P0420, P0300, P0302, P0303, and P0304. They were able to conclude oil consumption based on the low amount of oil in the vehicle, the spark plugs being oil fouled, the misfiring on three cylinders, and the P0420 code. I called customer service, the Hyundai dealership in Clive, IA, and the contact for the class action lawsuit and litigation II. I was informed my VIN number was not part of the current recalls or class action, however the symptoms are identical to those widely reported.

I have a 2017 Hyundai Tucson with approximately 120,000 miles. The vehicle had issues with oil consumption and jerking when put into drive. I took the vehicle to the dealership to be checked and was told it was fine. I recently was driving at 70 mph when the engine light came on and lost power. I had it towed to a mechanic that checked and cylinder #3 had lost compression. After finding this out I did an internet research and found that this is a common issue with this motor and vehicle. My vin is not included in the recall but Hyundai has replaced other engines in “goodwill” when the vin number was not included. One search shows that it usually happens from 120,000 to 150,000 miles. After the mechanic looked at the vehicle, Hyundai instructed me to take it to a dealership. After another tow to the dealership they said it was only the spark plugs but upon futher investigation they found that the cylinder was damaged with scoring to engine. The cost for a used engine with 54,000 miles is 10,000 and is more than the value of the car and the remaining loan amount of 10,000. So far we are out approximately 300.00 in towing fees. The dealership has not yet billed us for the checking they have done. We have contacted Hyundai with a response of no help to replace the engine even though the company has helped others in our situation. We haven’t replaced the motor due to the amount owed, cost of used motor vs the value of the vehicle. The safety of the vehicle is very questionable due to the high incidence of this happening and there could have been catastrophic consequences if I would not have been able to pull off the road.

I contacted the authorized Hyundai dealership to schedule the recall service. However, the dealership is requiring me to pay out-of-pocket for parts and/or tests — specifically, they mentioned charging for testing engine gaskets/joints — before confirming whether they will replace the engine under the recall. The recall notice clearly states that diagnosis, testing, and any necessary engine replacement should be done at no cost to the consumer. The dealership’s request for payment appears to be in violation of federal recall laws. I am being forced to delay this safety repair because I cannot afford these unexpected charges, which I believe are not allowed under NHTSA recall policies.

While driving under normal conditions, the engine began misfiring and losing power. Inspection revealed that two of the spark plugs had suffered a broken ceramic insulator, which likely occurred during a pre-ignition or detonation. As a result, the ceramic insulators were pushed through the engine causing at least one of the exhaust valves to burn leading to loss of compression resulting in engine failure on the highway. This engine has no current recall, despite numerous similar complaints. Hyundai has issued detonation-related recalls for other engines (like the Theta II), yet the 1.6L Turbo GDI engine in this Tucson is also experiencing similar failures. At the time of this complaint there are 955 complaints in the NTHSA database about this vehicle with more than half citing engine failure issues — many of them sudden and severe failures while driving. This creates both a safety risk and an excessive financial burden. These failures occur without warning and can leave the driver stranded. It is concerning that Hyundai has not acknowledged a defect pattern, despite consistent failure modes being reported across this engine type. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate the 1.6L Gamma II Turbo engine for potential systemic detonation or pre-ignition issues that can lead to severe engine damage. A recall or special service campaign should be considered, and Hyundai should be held accountable to cover these repairs.

The next day, I took the vehicle to the dealership for a diagnostic after experiencing problems with knocking when the check engine light illuminated. The codes were P302 and 304 indicating misfiring. The diagnostic tech wrote the problem up as having oil in the cylinder and suggesting engine/turbo replacement for approximately $15,000.00. The engine has less than 100,000 miles. I asked about the 10/100. After inquiring about the recalls for GDI engines in the 2017 Tucson for rods causing engine fires due to oil leaking into the cylinders, the service agent stated that it was only the 2.0 and not the 1.6 with recalls. I said sir it is the same issue: high oil consumption, sputtering and knocking, check engine light indicating misfire. Now the oil is accumulating in the cylinders. He stated that because I am the secondary owner neither the dealership nor Hyundai will correct the problem. However, if I was the original owner the powertrain warranty would cover the repair. The problem with the 2017 GDI, DCT in the Tucson is a safety issue for all owners. Escalated the issue to Hyundai Motor America, agent Kyrillos, who said that he would contact the dealership to check for prior authorization with the dealership to see if they would cover it under the recall. After numerous calls (on my behalf) and finally speaking with Kyrillos, I was advised that the dealership denied the repair. I requested supervisor contact and have not had any further communication from the company. I did send a follow up email asking when I could expect to hear from them.

It is my belief that the engine is failing or has something wrong, due to an engine recall. I started having issues with acceleration and took it to a local mechanic who advised it was an engine issue and needed to be taken to the Hyundai dealer asap. As of today, May 27, 2025, it was taken to Autonation Hyundai in Columbia, SC who is alleging that all engine recalls related to my vehicle are not covering any engine issues. I have had this car for quite a while and have never had any issues until now. Multiple diagnostics have been performed.

There is an excessive engine oil consumption on the 1.6L turbo charged motor. Motor oil is completely depleted between recommended oil changes. It is a necessary to add roughly 1qt of oil per 1,000 miles driven, between oil changes, in order to maintain safe oil levels. No signs of leakage, therefore oil is burning at an unsafe rate.

ODI #11661957ENGINE

In February of 2025, my oil lamp warning light came on. My husband checked the oil dipstick and noticed that it didn't have any oil on it. There was a visible burn mark as well. I called my local Hyundai dealer to schedule an appointment to see why my car was burning oil like that as it was not due for an oil change. The appointment was made for February 20, 2025. My car at that time had 79,803 miles on it. The Hyundai dealer suggested performing an engine combustion cleaning service, per Hyundai, to see if it would "fix" the problem. They also went ahead and did an oil change. After these services were done, I was told to bring the car back in after 1,000 miles. Hyundai's guidelines are that they allow 1 quart of oil loss per every 1,000 miles. I brought the car back to the Hyundai dealer after 1,000 miles and that was in April of 2025. I was told that my vehicle passed the inspection. The oil level on the dipstick was in the "normal range." After a few weeks, my husband checked the oil level again just to make sure the engine wasn't burning any additional oil since we were not convinced that the engine combustion cleaning service solved the problem. He checked it on May 11, 2025. The dipstick showed that it was below the L. I called the Hyundai dealer once again, and they were able to get me in on Tuesday, May 13th. My mileage was 81,792 on the day I brought it back in. They confirmed that it had burned over 2 quarts of oil in less than 2,000 miles. That is more oil consumption than Hyundai "allows" per their 1 quart of oil for every 1,000 miles rule. The dealer put in a request to Hyundai for a new engine replacement and I was denied due to my vehicle having no warranty.

The power steering of the vehicle suddenly stopped working. We had the car towed, and after inspection we were told that the steering column had failed. We were expected to purchase a new original part from Hyundai, which we did. After waiting a week, we were told that the replacement that was sent did not work and was defective. This has happened again and again, and we are currently waiting for our 4th part from Hyundai. Hyundai corporate told our auto shop that they "opened a case" to see why these parts are defective. I'm hoping that they eventually get to the bottom of this and can fix our Tuscan. We were lucky that our steering column failed on the driveway at our home, but I would imagine it could case quite a bad accident if power steering went out suddenly on someone else.

1)Component that failed: Engine 2)Driving 75 miles on the interstate in traffic and suddenly losing speed was very dangerous. 3)Yes, the issue is still occurring, even worse now as my vehicle shakes just starting the engine. 4) The mechanic has inspected, diagnosed and attempted to repair. However due to the condition of the engine, and the cost of replacing it; fixing may not be an option. 5)The engine light began flashing and then went off; then back to steady on. I purchased this 2017 Hyundai Tucson used just 4 years ago. Everything seemed to be working just fine, I've had regular oil changes. On Saturday, May 10, 2025, as I was driving on the Interstate with my cruise control set, I began to lose power and my speed slowed. I took my car off of cruise control and pushed on the gas pedal to gain speed and my car started to shake and it struggled to pick up speed. My mechanic has changed the spark plugs and performed a BG upper engine induction cleaning; did compression testing and leak down testing. He found that cylinder 4 has no compression. In addition to that, he noticed there was oil on the spark plug. I had my oil changed 3 months ago, and less than 3,000 miles - my engine is burning up the oil to the point where the oil level is extremely low. I have now found out that this is a known issue with this type of vehicle. I'm told it's $10,000 to replace the engine. I have no warranty coverage since I'm not the original owner. I was not aware of the class action lawsuit that was settled last year. I'm extremely upset that Hyundai has not recalled ALL the engines for this make and model of vehicle as it seems EVERYONE has had engine problems.

Purchased this in June of 2024. Ran fine until August 19th 2024 when I was returning to work from my lunch break. I went home for lunch and everything was fine. On the way back, I was pulling out into highway speed traffic and while merging, the engine just stopped. No warning lights or anything. It just stopped running. The vehicles behind me luckily were able to see what happened and get around me without incident. Once I was able to coast back to a safe area, I proceeded to try to restart it with nothing but a click as a response. Tried a few more times with same result. Called roadside assistance and proceeded to check under hood. Found oil stick barely showing any oil when just under 2 months ago it was full, and I had not seen any warning light indicating low oil. Took oil cap off and felt what was inside and found metal shavings in oil. Roadside showed and pretty much confirmed the metal shavings and my worst fear. Still had it taken to a Hyundai dealership where they told me the motor was seized at it would be $13,200 to fix. Asked about the existing class action suit and pretty got told my engine wasn't part of it. After looking at all the complaints here, not seeing how they CANT classify this as a major issue.

The engine is failing. Our vehicle continues to experience tremendous oil consumption and it's all of a sudden gone into "limp mode" where we lose engine power even after the knock sensor recall update was performed. No check engine lights, no indication of what's happening and it just loses power on the highway as well as city streets. It's a danger to everyone around us and it's a danger for us as we try to drive the vehicle. The dealer / Hyundai had us do 2 oil consumption tests but would not do anything to fix the issue. They informed us they needed to replace the engine after the first oil consumption but then they backed off of that and didn't fix the issue. It’s just gotten worse. We also had a transmission service done and they said the transmission looked fine. We took it in for a diagnostic just after this as the power issue began in "limp mode" where we lose engine power. They are trying to say it needs a new transmission but with the known issues with the Hyundai oil consumption and engine issues where the vehicles go into power loss / limp mode, we’re reporting this issue for our safety and the safety of the community as it’s unsafe to drive this care. We hope you will push Hyundai to do a recall for the engine not just for us but for all Hyundai Owners who are dealing with the same issue.

Since reaching approximately 79,000 miles on my vehicle (which I am the original owner of), I have noticed excessive oil consumption. Over the course of 3,000 miles between oil changes, the vehicle consumed about 4 quarts of oil, and the oil lamp came on. Additionally, I consistently experience the smell of burning oil inside the cabin whenever I back in or out of parking spaces/my garage, which poses a health risk. Beyond the health concerns, there are potential consequences, including engine damage, fire risks, reduced performance, and with that, an increased likelihood of accidents. While Hyundai acknowledges that this is a known issue, they have done little to offer a proper solution, merely attempting to keep the consumption within barely acceptable limits.

My 2017 Hyundai tucson is consumeing oil at a steady rate. Took it to dealership roughly year to do oil consumption test. They said my headgasket, turbo, and pil pan was all leaking. They replaced those parts before starting oil consumption test would be performed. $3,300 later still consuming roughly 1 quart per 500 miles. It faild the oil consumption test and i was advised to do a combustion chamber cleaning next. $700 later and im burning 1 quart roughly every 1k miles. Took it back to them and said thats normal and it is fixed. I'm very concerned considering no car should burn that much oil in between 3k oil changes and only holds 5 quarts of oil.

My vehicle began experiencing issues around 83,000 miles. The engine started burning oil, showed shuddering during acceleration, and there was a noticeable smell of gasoline inside the cabin. Eventually, the car wouldn’t start, so I had it towed to the dealership. The technicians confirmed it was running rough and behaving abnormally. The Hyundai dealership conducted a full inspection and diagnosed several issues. They replaced the spark plugs, performed a GDI-safe induction cleaning, replaced the coolant and brake fluids, completed a transmission fluid service, installed a new battery, carried out wheel alignments, and changed the cabin air filter. All of this work was completed in October 2024. However, in December 2024, I had to return to the dealership because the fuel smell inside the cabin persisted. Although they couldn’t find the source of the issue, the smell eventually disappeared after the visit. Following that, I was advised to check my oil every 3,000 miles due to the GDI engine's reputation for burning oil quickly. Despite this, the car began running rough again, and when I checked the oil, it was completely dry—well before reaching the 3,000-mile mark. I had to get another oil change sooner than expected. Unfortunately, the issue continued. I brought the vehicle back to the dealership for another inspection. They suggested starting a monitoring process where I would bring the car in every 1,000 miles to check the oil levels. After driving 1,000 miles, the oil level was just slightly above the low mark—still not normal for such a short distance. I urgently need assistance to move forward with the engine replacement process before my warranty expires. I am currently at 91,000 miles.

The dealer inspected the vehicle, and determined it to be a valve cover leak, which does not track given the issues. When picked up from the dealer, the engine seized shortly down the road. Upon my own inspection, it was found that the engine oil drain plug was missing. It is unclear if the dealer loosened the drain plug during their inspection, or if it fell out due to some other issue.

Greetings, I have had issues with the Hyundai Tucson 2017 I own for many months. Issues include among others an abnormal knocking noise from the engine, reduced engine power and/or hesitation, burning smell, oil leaking, and smoke coming out of the engine, misfires, and other issues. It happened many times on the highway and almost caused accidents and the last time it happened, the vehicle was towed, and recently the smoke coming from the engine forced me to pull over. I reported the issue to the dealer but they didn't recall or address the issue. The car has been maintained properly over time and now I fear for my life. It is totally unfair that about 100k of this brand have been recalled for the same issue, in my case it is just after I finished to pay in full the vehicle. I seek your support to have it addressed for safety

There is an intermittent problem with the transmission. It’s impossible to predict when the transmission will slip. When navigating traffic, it has happened multiple times trying to pull out across oncoming traffic, and the transmission begins slipping so badly in a couple of instances nearly causing a side impact. There are no recalls related to this, but the dealership confirms it is common… the fact that it is intermittent makes it worse. You get used to the transmission performing as it should… Next thing you know it slips when you can’t afford for it to slip..

I am writing to report a serious issue with my 2017 Hyundai Tucson SEL 2.0 that poses potential safety risks. The vehicle is consuming more than 4 quarts of oil every 1,000 miles, which is far beyond normal and acceptable levels. The car has approximately 166,000 miles on it and has been regularly maintained, including timely oil changes. Despite proper maintenance, this excessive oil consumption leads to frequent low-oil warnings, risking sudden engine failure if not continuously monitored. This creates an unsafe driving condition, particularly on highways or during long trips, as the engine could seize without warning. Additionally, I am aware that many other owners of Hyundai vehicles with similar engines have reported comparable issues. This suggests a widespread defect in the engine design or manufacturing process. I am requesting the NHTSA to investigate this matter further to determine if a recall, warranty extension, or other corrective action is necessary to address this issue. Hyundai should be held accountable for resolving this problem, especially since it compromises the safety and reliability of the vehicle. Vehicle Information: Year: 2017 Make: Hyundai Model: Tucson SEL Engine: 2.0L VIN: [Your Vehicle Identification Number here] Thank you for your attention to this matter. I hope for a prompt investigation and resolution to ensure the safety of all Hyundai Tucson owners.

In August 2024, the engine of the vehicle suddenly started making a very loud knocking noise, with no previous warning lights. We did not feel it was safe to drive. We saw online that a recall was underway by Hyundai for 2017 Tucsons due to problems with the rod bearings, where metal spreads throughout the engine. There is the potential for the engine to catch fire, and a complete engine replacement is recommended. This was confirmed by the dealership where we bought the vehicle, Boucher Hyundai of Waukesha, which told us they are replacing the engines in many of these vehicles. However, our VIN was not included in the recall, although the problem is identical to what is described in the recall. We had the car towed to the dealership; after confirming the problem, the dealership filed a claim with Hyundai seeking to add our VIN to the recall. We included all of the maintenance records since we bought the vehicle in January 2021 with 64K miles. Hyundai rejected the claim, citing a gap in the maintenance records from 64,000-124,000 miles. The dealership questioned that, since they had submitted our maintenance records and there were no gaps. Hyundai again denied the claim, citing a gap in the maintenance records from 17,000-29,000 miles - before we owned the vehicle. We called Hyundai customer service seeking an explanation; they said that the decision is made by Hyundai Motor America, a different entity, which only the dealership can contact, not vehicle owners. The customer service rep's only suggestion was to file a claim with your agency. The vehicle is parked and undriveable; it is available for inspection.

Temporary fix is combustion cleaning with re seat piston rings then a valve cleaning and pcv replacement. Permanent solution replace the engine which warranty won’t cover since it’s technically not broken. Charging me ridiculous amount money for temporary fix.

I reported a problem with my engine to the Clay Cooley Hyundai dealership (Mesquite) in April 2022. I told them that my oil was burning a lot faster than normal. My car was currently under warranty at the time, which would have covered a new engine replacement. The dealership instructed me to do “oil consumption” tests and had me come in every 1000 miles to see if there were any oil leaks. Once I completed the tests, they told me to do another round of testing, which I thought was odd. I ended up doing tests from April-October 2022, and by the time I was finished my warranty expired. They said that my engine was fine and good to drive. I took my car to the same dealership in August 2024 with the same issue and that my engine wasn’t accelerating. They are now telling that there is a problem with my engine and charging me a new one for $10k. It would've been covered under my warranty in 2022, but they had me drive over the warranty limit so that a new engine wouldn’t be covered anymore. After doing research, there was a Class Action lawsuit about the engine for my vehicle. The problem is damage to the engine’s connecting rod bearings. You could hear a knocking sound from my engine. This issue has been happening from 2022-2024. I had to do oil changes more frequently. After consulting with a local auto care shop, they said it was a manufacturing problem. Hyundai put me back on the road with an unsafe car. The engine should have been fixed back in 2022. Hyundai Corporate is only offering to pay 50% of the engine (I would have to pay $5k-8k). I feel like they knew about the bad engine because of the lawsuit, and the reason I had to do a second round of tests was to drive over the warranty mileage.

The problem began in mid to late April 2024 with the Tucson shuddering in the driveway while moving forward slowly. This vehicle has a 1.6L turbo with a dual clutch transmission. The mileage was around 96,000 miles. Once on the road, it ran fine. Approximately a month later the check engine light came on and it began hesitating upon acceleration. It would change to the next gear, accelerate and slam me against the seat! Whenever I try to accelerate too fast, it hesitates and loses power until it "catches" and starts speeding up. This is very dangerous especially when accelerating from a complete stop or after a turn. It also has trouble going up a hill and has actually died out 3 times while attempting to go uphill at a low speed. I am the second owner and it is out of warranty. I have contacted the local Hyundai dealer but their shop does not have a very good reputation and is always backed up for 3+ weeks. They also charge $230 or more to hook up their code reader!! I've already taken it to 2 other shops where that was done at no charge. The code was P073F - Unable to engage gear 1. Of course the only option I've been given is to replace the transmission for $3000 or have it rebuilt for $4100. This problem makes it very dangerous to continue driving it. I get the oil changed every 5000 miles. Of course it's almost paid for but I'm afraid if I try to trade it in I'll be lucky to even get enough to pay it off. I have been endlessly researching this online for recalls, updates or remedies.

In June of 2023 at around 79,000 miles. I was driving on the highway and had a sudden loss in acceleration and would not go above 65 mph. During the inspection, the dealership ran the vehicle through 3 tests of oil consumption and it failed 2 out of 3 which did not result in a replacement of the oil pan system. My car continues to burn through oil at an increased rate (every 3000 miles). I know because the dip stick is completely dry when checking it. In July of 2024 at around 84,000 miles, while driving on the interstate, I experienced a loss in acceleration again. My Tucson would not accelerate over 65mph. I took it into the dealership and they found that my catalytic converter needed to be replaced. The replacement was estimated to cost around $5000. For each incident, there were no warning lamps that illuminated on the dash. The oil light did not come on nor did the engine light come on.

I had to have it towed to the dealership. The dealership confirmed the engine needs replaced. I can't even get a new engine anywhere because no one can order one or find one in stock new.

Hello, I have a serious problem with my Hyundai Tucson 2017 which is excessively burning oil. An oil change has been done on December 26 2023 (125.600) and a service was due 3 month later (3.000 miles) to perform an oil change but when I went for the oil change on March 26, 2024 at Jiffy Lube, they noticed that there was no oil in the engine and no leaks and suspected that the vehicle might burn oil and the performed a full synthetic oil change (service due after 7500 miles) and after 2800 miles on May 17, 2024 when I checked the oil level, I couldn't see any mark on the stick. I brought them the car and they checked if there was any leak then they filled up the engine. I was monitoring and on June 15, 2024 after 780 miles the level was below the minimum level. I bought a Mobil 1 full synthetic motor oil 5W-30 and filled up the engine up to the maximum level mark on the stick. 2 weeks later, on June 28 I noticed that the oil level was close to the minimum level again. I booked an appointment at Hyundai dealership at Gaithersburg, MD and they refused to check the vehicle without a payment. I paid for the diagnosis and 2 day after they ended up saying that the vehicle is burning 1 quart every 2660 miles (which is below what we observed) and they asked me to pay $1235 for a combustion chamber cleaning to which they added it might not work. I am submitting this request for you to solve this safety problem on my car. Thank you

There are two issues. Acceleration failure while driving and excessive oil leaks that require continually adding oil to the engine. Yes, it is available for inspection on request. The acceleration failure is a safety risk and does put others in danger when I cannot accelerate when needed. For example, entering a freeway. The car has stalled and cut out going only 15 mph. This never happened while stopped, just as I was accelerating from a stopped position. I cannot get on roads where the speed limit is above 50 mph because the car will not go over 50 mph. The manufacturer has inspected these problems. Charged me to correct them, and a month later the problems returned. NO warning lights, or anything, at any time.

Tucson currently has 98,000 miles on the engine and is burning extreme amounts of oil. Oil consumption issues became known as early as 75,000. Per 1,000 miles of driving, the Hyundai dealership notes the car is losing over 2 quarts of oil. I have been having to return to the dealership every 1,000 miles to be monitored. I have already had to pay replace my catalytic converter, which I believe was a result of the excess rate of oil burn from the engine. I have also had to pay to replace the oil gaskets in the oil pan even though there was no noticeable sign that the engine was leaking oil. I am now being told I am going to need to have an engine head cleaning repair that will take several days. Once that is complete, I will have to undergo continued oil consumption testing to determine the results. They are requesting I produce my service records or Hyundai will not cover the repairs. Almost all of the service on this vehicle was done at the dealership and I was never notified of any issue with oil consumption. A separate mechanic, while performing a quote, did an oil change and noted the car was completely out of oil. This engine is well known for its oil consumption issues and Hyundai does not seem to want to take responsibility for their defective engine.

It died again on [XXX], 2023; again it had been driven less than 4,000 miles and was not yet due for an oil change. It has been there since. They (Irwin) wanted service records, I told them all I had from prior to purchase was the carfax, and that they had performed the only service because I hadn't driven it long enough to have even had a second oil change. When Irwin submitted documents to Hyundai, they indicated the issues with the car were due to neglect and poor maintenance.

I am writing to report a serious issue with our 2017 Hyundai Tucson. As the first and only owners of this vehicle, we have diligently maintained it through authorized dealerships. However, in May 2023, while driving on the highway, the car suddenly lost power and would not accelerate beyond 30 mph. There were no warning lights or indications prior to this incident. My wife managed to pull the car to the side of the road and slowly drove it to the dealership. Despite having only 30,000 miles on the odometer from personal use, we were shocked to learn that the engine had suffered significant damage due to low engine oil. Notably, we had recently serviced the vehicle at the same dealership just a few months earlier. The dealership informed us that the engine needed replacement, but the process took nearly a year. During this time, we were left without our vehicle, causing considerable inconvenience and financial hardship due to renting replacement vechile . We find it concerning that an engine failure occurred despite our regular maintenance and adherence to authorized service centers. We kindly request an investigation into this matter and hope that steps can be taken to prevent similar incidents for other Hyundai Tucson owners. Additionally, we urge Hyundai to address this issue promptly and transparently.

We purchased a 2017 Hyundai Tuscon in April 2023 with 79 k miles. Realized after a short time that it was consuming too much oil. Started doing some research and found that this has been a problem for many Hyundai/Kia engines. We were checking the oil often and topping it off as needed plus, oil changes at 3000 miles. There were no check engine lights on and no leaks of fluids on the ground, no loss of power. Fast forward to March 2024. Driving down the interstate on a trip the engine just shuts off. Luckily my daughter was able to make it to the shoulder without getting hit by another car. The vehicle would not restart. I started looking for someone to tow the vehicle a State Trooper stopped to assist her and her passengers. Vehicle was towed. Mechanic charged the battery, checked the terminals, tested the alternator, and the belt. All were good. No idea why it just shut off. After charging battery for an hour, she was able to limp the Tuscon to the nearest dealership. The vehicle started losing power going uphill and regained speed on the flat areas on the way to dealership. The Hyundai dealer diagnosed the issue as leaking valve seal, oil soaked ignition coil causing the misfire which then started to plug up catalytic converter and fouling the spark plugs. I told the service person I will be contacting Hyundai and she said that the diagnosis did not qualify for the engine replacement and the estimate to repair was $5600. While we were there we checked into trading in. We paid $16,000 in April 2023 with 79k miles. March of 2024 Kelly Blue Book says it’s worth only $8300 (93k mileage) and they offered $4000 trade. Loan balance is $14,000. This incident could have caused my daughter and her passengers (one was an infant) to get into a horrific accident on the Interstate with traffic driving 70 mph. Now we are dealing with this economic hardship. My research shows many of the engines of various models of Hyundai and Kia’s are failing. No current recalls!

On March 9, 2024, I was driving when suddenly a warning light sounded from the dashboard that the engine "overheated" and there's a loss of power. I was very scared driving for the first time in my life. Before I pulled over to a safe place, a driver nearest to my car pulled his window down and shouted that my car was smoking. I was terrified. This incident triggered my husband's mental health conditions. I called my niece who is a registered nurse to help us. I called my car insurance for towing to the next dealership that I called about what happened. After I rented a car, I went to the dealership. However, the Service Department was closed after 4:00 pm. The next day (Monday), I received text messages that they're working on my car and the only communication was "text messages." I was stunned! The next message was transmission problem, the cost of repairing it, and authorization to fix at $1,581.40. Because my rental car was not cheap and needed a car to doctors and other appointments made on that week, I agreed to proceed. After I signed the authorization from text messages, I got a call from a service advisor to acknowledge the cost of the repair. I asked about the engine and he said it's okay. By Wednesday afternoon, I received a call that my car was done. Before this incident (2 weeks?), I called the same dealership when it's time for an oil change, but was told at 72,000 miles. Then I received a call that my car needs a transmission check up for $1,200 or more, but I told him I'll wait for the next oil change. Last year, I reported to other dealership that my engine light was on, but was told to go to Autozone. I didn't do it because the light didn't appear again. My car has been maintained by local dealership since I bought it in 2016. One dealership would not pick up my calls after fixing the side door locked from inside/outside.

The vehicle stalled in the middle of an intersection. No warning lights were illuminated, no dashboard indicators were illuminated prior to and or during the time of the vehicle stalling in a 3 lane intersection. The vehicle was towed to a local mechanic. Upon inspection the mechanic stated the engine appeared to have significant rod wear and tear not indicative of the year the car was built. He stated this make and model were under a recall with Hyundai and he would not complete any repairs until Hyundai was able to review in the event the car was under recall. I called the manufacturer and the individual said the vin was not under recall, there was nothing they could do. I explained the safety concerns at that time and was advised to have the vehicle towed to a Hyundai dealership for further review by Hyundai due to meeting all criteria of the recall. The hyundai dealership stated the vin number was not under the recall and it would take 6 to 8 weeks to inspect the engine.

Campaign 209. Hyundai is refusing to provide assistance under recall campaign 209 for our VIN. Our vehicle has premature rod bearing failure causing engine failure. Rod knock noise. My wife drives the 2017 Hyundai Tucson. This year in June 2023 our vehicle check engine light came on for knock sensor. Soon after the vehicle started having acceleration issues, then the oil pressure warning light would come on and off. The vehicle oil level was checked, and we learned the vehicle oil level was low. The vehicle was through burning oil. The vehicle had burned through a quart of oil with no explanation. Our VIN # for our vehicle indicates there is an active recall Campaign #209 for Rod bearing issues with our specific model and VIN. Our specific vehicle and VIN when entered into Hyundai’s website reflects active recall. We took the vehicle into Red Mccombs Hyundai Northwest to have our vehicle evaluated. Red Mccombs submitted a PA to Hyundai for engine replacement. They denied coverage stalling vehicle is no longer under warranty but made no mention of active recall. We got Hyundai Consumer Affairs involved and had same result with denial stalling vehicle is no longer under warranty. We then brought up recall #209 explaining we are having all the same issues they list on their website for this active recall. Dealer refused to look at rod bearings stalling we would have to pay for them to inspect rod bearings. Hyundai consumer affairs had us take it to another Hyundai service dept. for a second opinion. As Hyundai consumer affairs requested, we drove vehicle to principle Hyundai of boerne. While driving my vehicle from Red Mcccombs Hyundai Northwest to Principle Hyundai of Boerne it failed on the highway. The vehicle was making a loud knocking noise and would not accelerate past 50 mph. Check engine light was on again. We managed to bring the vehicle into Principle Hyundai of Boerne and they evaluated the vehicle. The service advisor immediately agreed to hearing the knocking noise. After evaluating the vehicle, the technician agreed the Rod bearings are near failure and its only a matter of time before they fail.

Luckily I was able to get out of traffic without getting rear ended. I took the suv to local Hyundai dealer and they couldn’t find the problem. The second time I took it to the dealer they replaced sensor crankshaft to clear lights that were coming on. Paid $209.27 for multi point inspection and paid $412.62 for second repair.

Bought this one (~80K miles) ~Oct/Nov 2022 from a local dealer as a used car (I was the 2nd owner). The oil light was on when I drove it ~1500 miles. I was surprised and went to shop to do my first oil change. I thought probably that the last oil change they just did not top it up. Unfortunately, after it, I noticed that the oil consumption was much quicker than it's supposed to be and required me for oil change more frequently. On 10Feb24 (it had ~97K miles), the car started to vibrate when I started the car. I noticed a "green/blue" fume came out when I stopped/started from a traffic light. On 12Feb24 morning, I drove it to a local dealer, the ~3 miles ride became a horrible experience in my life. The car is shaking and making a terrible noise, the "green/blue" fume busted out, felt no power and could barely maintain ~30MPH speed. It's like you were driving something that going to be exploded. You pictured it. It finally reached the dealer site and I felt the car has delivered its last breath. Thanks GOD that nobody got hurt. Dealer took a look and told me that it would cost $4000 to fix it. I googled this problem and found that many people experienced the similar problem (excessive oil consumption/engine failure). Therefore, I strongly urge that Hyundai and NHTSA take proper measurement to identify the cause and prevent future disaster it may have. For Hyundai, I strongly urge you to read all the complaints on this type of vehicle (2017 Tucson AWD) through NHTSA platform. It's easy to realize that, as of 13Feb24, there are 795 complaints about this type of car, and 379 of them are linked to engine problem. It has a statical significancy and we hold you accountable . For me, I will never buy Hyundai again, and no more "Tucson garlic" dish from my menu because of "Tucson".

Car has 125,000 mi on it. This will be the 3rd catalytic converter in 2 years. Second one was March of 2022. I have excessive oil consumption (1QT every other week).

The vehicle actually had complete engine failure while I was driving on the interstate Dec 23, 2023 driving at 70 miles an hour! It was caused by the clogged converter! I could have died! Thank you.

With eco/turbo boost engaged, acceleration is intermittently delayed 2-4 seconds. This issue has endured for the last 2 years since I have owned this vehicle. After pulling onto a very busy main road, with power boost engaged and accelerator was fully engaged (to the floor) with NO response, the vehicle stays in place. After looking online, it appears that hundreds of other Hyundai customers have complained about this same defect, boiling it down to a dual clutch transmission. I took my vehicle to the dealership but they cannot repair this unless the acceleration delay happens while being test driven. This is a dangerous and unsafe feature, considering the vehicle has a eco boost system.

Since I was notified of this recall on November 16, 2021, I have diligently followed the instructions provided, and my vehicle has been taken to a Hyundai service center for inspection and necessary repairs.

After looking online I found that EVERYONE with this transmission is having the issue. You never know when you will have power and it has almost got me into a major accident several times. There was a Class action lawsuit agains Hyundai in 2016 for the DCT transmission and they Hyundai lost. Yet they still put the same unsafe transmission in the 2017 and said they fixed it. Hyundai needs to be held accountable for lying to the consumer as well as putting the consumer in an unsafe situation.

Very often the transmission does not kick in when the accelerator is pushed and gas is applied. I.e when crossing an intersection, when passing, when moving forward from a complete stop, when changing lanes, and when on busy freeways. This has been reported to Dealer many times beginning in 2017. This has occurred when I have had passengers in vehicle as well as when other drivers have been behind the wheel. I again reported incidents in September of 2023 but could not get an appt with dealer scheduled until November 6, 2023. Since most recent report to dealer, I have experienced at least 4 more incidents that could very well have been life threatening.

I had my engine replaced in match 2023 due to stalled vehicle. After several trips to hyundai. Now just 6 months later and as off present my check engine light is back on . I took my car in to get the immobilizer installed from another recall. The dealership is giving me run around.

ODI #11548139ENGINE

The 2017 Hyundai Tucson is unsafe to drive. Purchased the vehicle with 62000 miles and have had issues with the vehicle since shortly after purchase. Vehicle consumes oil at a rapid pace - in between 3000 mile oil changes additional oil is needing to be added within 600 miles, while driving the vehicle on the freeway at 70 miles an hour vehicle stalls and goes into limp mode - huge safety issue. Vehicle has been at Hyundai three times now - first time Hyundai covered all of the diagnostics and repairs, mainly electrical for the engine. Second time vehicle was stalling again and diagnosis was catalytic converter needed to be replaced, caused due to manufacturing error that is causing oil consumption - Hyundai would not cover, out of pocket cost $3600. A month later vehicle stalled and was going into limp mode again, check engine light on and flashing. Took to Hyundai again, now the diagnosis is engine needs to be replaced. Hyundai is denying replacement coverage, these engine failures are due to many manufacturing errors on the engine, I have a case open with Hyundai however they are highly unresponsive, dishonest, and continue to deny coverage for an engine replacement due to me being the second vehicle owner - the vehicle only has 83000 miles on it at this time and should be considered as a warranty coverage due to manufacturing errors in this engine and the low mileage along with the regular maintenance always maintained on the vehicle. Hyundai is also being dishonest about costs for an engine replacement, I have asked for quotes multiple times and have been unable to get any assistance or answers from Hyundai. Hyundai and any dealership getting these vehicles as trade ins are selling unsafe and defective vehicles, these defective engines need to be covered by Hyundai to provide safe roadways for all.

We are getting a Knock sensor ERROR & Oil consumption issue. So last year I had a few recalls on my car, I took it to the dealer for then to do the updates. One of the recalls was the knock sensor. Also last year, the check engine light come on and Tires plus said it was my Knock sensor. Tires Plus cleared the code and it was fine until I had an oil change due this month I still had 3000 miles before it was due and the check engine light came on again, But this time I couldn't drive over 20 mph. I had to get it towed to a mechanic in Collegeville. His diagnostics was it was the knock sensor, He told me that Hyundai knows this is a problem but won’t fix it until it presents a problem. That being said The Collegeville Mechanic said its called a quiet recall. When I called Hyundai corp. recall center they told me that they don’t recognize quiet recalls. I had an appointment with the Springfield Hyundai Aug. 3, 2023 They would even look at it because the code was cleared but I called them first when it happened to get it towed there and they push the appointment back 3 weeks.

6 Mar 2023 check engine light comes on. Took to my mechanic (they were closest to me) to put on machine to find out what the problem was; they state that it was the knock sensor and said to take it to the dealership and also let them know that it was down one quart of oil since the last oil change Jan 2023). Dealership took possession of vehicle on 8 March 23. Didn't begin repairs until 5 Apr. Then they state there was still noise from engine and found scoring on the cylinder walls and may be why it's consuming oil. Then they wanted oil change records. Finally, after providing records, "Hyundai approved replacement of engine". Legal battle ensued because they were charging for parts (lifters) that were no longer on my vehicle.

I am not a mechanic but when I drive my vehicle, I feel like it doesn't have enough amps to move it along like it's missing something. I have pressed on the accelerator and heard a "winding noise" like the little engine that could but wants to. This is a horrible car!!! I have only had this vehicle for a month and it's a nightmare to drive. It sometimes does not accelerate, and the take-off is unbearable gives me the impression I will be rear ended one day. It even jerks and sputters, even the "rpm" feature shows high acceleration at inopportune times. I had a diagnostic performed and was told the plugs and ignition coils needed to be changed so I did that to the tune of $400 for the parts, and now not even a week later I am being told I need to change them again. How can this situation be rectified? I don't have another $400 every month in addition to the payment and insurance to replace those things every month.

There is a problem with the dual clutch transmission on this 2017 Hyundai Tucson. There was a class action suit filed 2016 for transmission defects including the hesitation and shuddering issue and also grinding noises. I purchased this vehicle in 2020 with only 6600 (yes, hundred) miles not knowing of any problem or issues. 2023 in Tucson AZ when the weather started getting very warm end May, June I started noticing a bit of hesitation, sometimes like a grinding noise. This was not happening all of the time but from the reviews it happens when it gets warm. The shaking or shuddering as they call it and hesitation is very prominent and continuous now. When I had my car in for oil change in Tucson at the Hyundai dealer the service manager even drove it and said it was the dual clutch transmission. I asked about replacing the transmission then and he said that I did not have a warranty. That was another issue as I was told by Hyundai corporate before buying the vehicle that the 100,000 warranty would transfer to me. I found out in July it did not. I opened a case with Hyundai service who contacted Eastside Hyundai and I even got a call from the svc mngr who drove the vehicle. He said that Hyundai would not end up covering it all even if they said they would, they may have to have car for awhile and I would need a rental, and anything else negative about the situation. That manager never called back so caseworker called another dealer numerous times and said that they could check out my car in November. This vehicle is getting worse and possibly a danger. Hyndai take is November, take it or leave it and thats all they can do. This can cause long term damage to the engine and other parts. I need some help with this if possible before resulting in litigation. Are you able to advise on this issue and if you have even heard about. No accident has occured with this vehicle YET.

The Hyundai Tucson 2017 we own experienced excessive oil burning, due to what appears to be a known Hyundai Engine failure which can cause the bearings to fail. My Hyundai Tucson appears to need new bearings which requires a full engine replacement based on how this car is made. This particular model does not have a recall on it however several other Hyundai models do for the very same known issue. This engine could have seized while driving at higher speeds on the freeway making this a serious safety matter. There does not appear to be a clear indicator of this excessive oil burning.The car was not leaking oil, was not smoking, but for some reason it was burning all oil between oil changes ( 3,000 miles). This 2017 engine should be able to go 5k miles between oil changes, however that was not the case. From reading various posts from other Hyundai Tucson owners, this issue is impacting more drivers than might be realized. The safety concern this kind of failure poses needs to be reviewed and someone needs to have Hyundai do the right thing and issue the recall for repair this known engine failure. People shouldn't have to lose their lives to get the right safety attention on this issue.

The vehicle was serviced not long after I got it as a certified pre-owned vehicle for reprogramming of the transmission, which I told it was a just a reprogramming to make it more reactive. The vehicle would fail to accelerate, or have delayed acceleration. I was not aware at the time that these vehicles were known to have faulty transmissions and if I known this at purchase I would have spent my money on a more reliable vehicle. The vehicles transmission is having issues again, not reversing, not accelerating, etc. The Hyundai dealership I got it from told me that they won't even get me into the dealership for a diagnostic until January 6th,,, which is a huge safety issue. Furthermore, apparently Hyundai is well away of the fact that they have allowed Hyundai owners to drive vehicles with faulty transmission and will not help with extended the warranty on their vehicles. I am 477 miles over 100,00. It seems as though they do not even want to help with repairs, even if they are out of pocket.

The check engine light started flashing and the vehicle would not go over 25 miles per hour. Thankfully I was pulling into a parking lot when the reduction in speed occurred. If this had happened on the interstate (which I commute on regularly) it could have been extremely dangerous. Hyundai dealership never returned my calls about service, I had the vehicle towed to another service provider (Jensen Tire & Auto) who performed a diagnostic which showed codes P0300/0302/1326/0011. They also said the engine was 2 quarts low on oil and there was no sign of an oil leak. The vehicle mileage was at 74344. I had oil changed at 71579 miles with full synthetic, and at 66230 miles prior to that. There is no sign of oil leak where I park the car. I regularly change my oil and service my car according to the manufacturer recommendation (just not at the dealership). This problem is not on the recall list for this vehicle, yet there are several instances of this posted in online forums. (https://www.carproblemzoo.com/hyundai/tucson/engine-burning-oil-problems.php). This problem is not due to lack of proper care, but to a dangerous defect in the Tuscon 2017 engine that misuses oil and causes a sudden an unexpected decrease in acceleration.

I am writing to bring a critical matter to your attention concerning my 2017 Hyundai Tucson. On July 1st, 2021, while driving my vehicle, I encountered a sudden loss of engine power with no prior warning. Concurrently, the engine light illuminated and began flashing, indicating a severe problem. After reaching the AutoZone store located at 720 Dairy Ashford, I promptly explained the situation to their staff, who graciously conducted a diagnostic check on my vehicle. To my astonishment, they informed me that my car had a complete lack of engine oil, and Code #P1326 was being displayed, despite recently undergoing servicing at North Freeway Hyundai for an open recall and at my local Firestone. Both service centers even performed a complimentary inspection, during which no issues were reported regarding the engine oil level. However, I did inform the Firestone location about a noticeable difference in performance before they serviced my vehicle, which was duly noted in the report. This leads me to assume that the engine was displaying signs of damage before my visit to Firestone.

my 2017 Tucson started using more oil between oil changes back in January/Feb of this year (2023). I took it to the Hyundai dealership I purchased it from & they performed an 'oil test' on it @ that time. It past the test & they told me everything was fine. On Good Friday 4/7/23 I had an oil change, again was told everything looked good & was fine. On Friday 5/12/23 (5 weeks to the day)I was on way home from work, my vehicle started to make a horrible banging noise. Soon as I got home, my husband checked it & vehicle was down 4 quarts of oil. Not one sensor light came on warning me of this either. How in 5 weeks did vehicle consume 4 qrts? I park on pavement and there are ZERO oil puddles under vehicle. I had vehicle towed back to the same dealership, I was told engine was blown and there was nothing they could do for fixing it unless I wanted to pay (no warranty) because I have 117K on vehicle. I also spoke with Hyundai corporate and they told me the same thing. I have a 1.6 GDI engine. That particular one is not recalled (yet) but, it has the EXACT SAME ISSUES as every other Kia and Hyundai that is being recalled. With the complaints & concerns I had with it and its a KNOWN issue for Hyundai motors having this issue, why wasn't I offered a knock sensor to help prevent this? How did vehicle consume 4 quarts in 5 wks & not one warning light came on? How can the dealership/company stand behind faulty vehicles? These are not little fixes and right now, we cant fix ours becuase we cant afford it. We are paying our monthly loan payment on a dead horse, so to speak. I called a lawyer and unfortunately, I was told they cant help me. Someone has to hold these companies accountable for known faulty equipment. I was lucky vehicle didn't catch on fire or it just 'died' and and accident occurred due to it.

Vehicle has approx. 86,000 miles on it. Engine light came on in the middle of the desert. Was able to get vehicle into Hyundai dealership and they are recommending a new engine (upper engine problem specifically a valve issue; however, cannot guarantee for $8,000 price tag that just fixing the valve would totally fix the problem. Hence, the brand new engine recommendation). Not under manufacturer's warranty due to second ownership. TV commercials & website show first owner warranty info only, not second owner info. Feels misleading on Hyundai's part. Being stranded in the middle of the desert could be life-threatening when engine goes out. I've seen numerous engine complaints on the NHTSA website; however, would like to see an investigation into 2017 Hyundai Tuscon engines and why they are having so many verifiable problems. Dealerships can hide behind the facts that this specific VIN# related engine has not had a recall. (Other 2017 Hyundai Tuscon engines have had recall issues, but our vehicle based on VIN# has not).

I have had engine problems with this car since I purchased in 2017. These issues range from transmission overheating, water pump replacement, and most recently, the car's engine failed while driving. The vehicle is now with the Hyundai dealer, who confirmed that a new engine replacement is required. My wife, toddler and 6-year old son where in the car when it failed while stopped in traffic. The car has excessive oil burn; therefore, I would purchase and add oil every 2-3 months to ensure oil levels do not reach an unsafe level, on top of regular oil changes. The oil light has never turned on despite these issues. The engine light came on only once after managing to restart the car and struggling to get the car to the Hyundai dealership after numerous start and stops on the way. For a car with less than 100k miles (6 years old), the car is the highest maintenance and poorest quality car I have ever owned. The car is unsafe and I have genuine concerns about other peoples' safety as it relates to the engine in this Hyundai Tucson. Additionally, my wife and I are not aggressive drivers and both have excellent driving records. We always take good care of our vehicles.

Late last year, we drove my car from our home in Ky to Gatlinburg TN. While we were driving thru Cades Cove, my car acted up, so we found a local repair shop & they looked my car over & determined I needed 4 QUARTS OF OIL added! My car was almost BONE DRY!!! I recently finished my 3 trips to the dealership for the 'oil consumption tests' I'm not sure what was done to my car on each visit, EXCEPT I do know on visit #2, they cleaned my engine/pistons & changed the oil. After that, I drove it aprox 1582 miles & 'lost' 3/4 of a quart of oil. They Hyundai Co seems to think this is acceptable, however, I do NOT!!! NO vehicle should burn/leak/lose that much oil over a 1500 mile trip!!! I got NO resolution regarding this issue, except I was told by my service tech to "keep an eye on the oil & add as needed" ... are you kidding me?? My car runs HORRIBLY & uses alot of gas now ( who can afford THAT??? ) I've owned Hyundai cars since 2006 & ALWAYS LOVED them & the brand, BUT after this, I will NEVER buy another one!!!!

Engine is still under warranty. Only 70,000 miles on it. Started burning massive amounts of oil leading to acceleration issues and low pressure. No oil light ever came on. We realized it was bone dry, in between intervals of recommended oil change. We filled up and monitored. Car is burning over a quart of oil every 1,000 miles causing unsafe driving conditions and costly repairs that are outside of the recommended maintenance in owner manual. Hyundai dealership refuses to approve oil consumption test. Case management will not return my communication. Car has been in the shop for 5 weeks without an answer. This is happening to thousands of people. People who didn’t realize it early enough are being left stranded with seized engines and Hyundai taking no ownership even though most are under warranty still.

I took the vehicle in for a recall for unrelated issues to this problem at 90,000 miles (July 6 2022). The technician noted that the vehicle was leaking oil and it needed an oil pan reseal. I brought the vehicle back for this service on March 6 2023. Between the initial recall service and this service, I noticed that the vehicle was consuming a significant amount of oil, beyond regular consumption. On several occasions, after about 1000 miles after the oil was changed, I was adding 2-3 quarts of oil to the vehicle. Moreover, when the oil was changed, the technician who changed the oil, noted that the oil was very dirty despite only going 3000-4000 miles between oil changes. I mentioned this to the Lehigh Valley Hyundai Service Desk and that it was highly unlikely that an oil pan reseal would resolve this. They ordered an oil consumption test and instructed me to drive the vehicle for 1000 miles. I did this and brought the vehicle back in to Lehigh Valley Hyundai on April 1, 2023. They checked the oil, the technician ordered an oil combustion cleaning, and instructed me to drive the vehicle an additional 1000 miles before bringing it back in for the oil combustion test. During this period, I noticed that the vehicle lost a significant amount of power. During a drive back from Widener University, I barely had enough power to drive up hills on the Northeast Extension and almost got into two wrecks due to the lack of power. I took the vehicle back to Hyundai on April 8, 2023 and notified them of this issue. They checked the vehicle out and notified me that the catalytic converter was clogged and needed to be replaced. They gave me a quote of $4000 to complete this service. This service was extraordinarily high priced compared to other mechanic services which cost between $2000-2500. I checked with other services and they indicated that they did not have access to the part and only Hyundai had access to the catalytic converter.

Around 80K miles, the oil consumption really started to become an issue and I took it to a few repair shops and no one could figure out what the problem was even though the car was consuming oil faster than it should have been. It wasn’t leaking, it wasn’t burning off, it was just using oil somewhere in the car. I checked the oil weekly and topped off if needed. I was driving down the interstate when the car completely lost power and would not accelerate, putting me, my family, and other drivers in serious danger as the normal speed for the interstate is 70 mph and I was surrounded by other vehicles who essentially had to slam on brakes to avoid hitting us. After pulling off the road, I checked the oil and it was not even reading on the dipstick even though I had just filled it the previous day! There were no signs that anything was wrong prior to this; neither the oil lamp nor the check engine light came on. Now there is a loud rod knocking in the engine - AND the check engine light is still not on. The engine now needs to be fully replaced.

I brought the fact up to the service rep at Hyundai that it was going through a lot of oil and they stated that it was normal with multiple cars that Hyundai produced. The oil was burning off and no detection of leak and no check engine light has ever came on. It never over heated. I then brought this up to Hyundai at about 92,000 miles and thats when I learned about the warranty being voided because of the transfer. The car at the time is running just fine but still burning oil and still nothing from the dealership about any issues because the check engine light never came on. Until I was going home one day and the car began to stutter and losing power . It was struggling to produce power and I finally pulled over to a safe spot. It did not wanna start after that. I had it towed to Hyundai service center and they later told me that my engine needed a fuel system flush. They did that and I drove it just fine for about a month. Then it did the same thing only this time the check engine light finally came on. The code was giving them a misfire of 2 cylinders and was not holding enough pressure. They then said my motor was gonna need to be replaced and that threw me off. I feel like that should have been detected much earlier but without any sign of overheating or engine alarms it just kept running up until that point of the motor no longer running. I feel that if I were to get some kind of check engine light earlier in then it is possibly that this could have been avoided. I feel like this issue remains and is well overlooked to many of their vehicles. I just need a new engine not looking for money or anything else, just a car that is reliable and safe.

So my engine has a lawsuit with Hyundai because the type of engine that is in it is causing it to consume more oil. My cylinder one has completely gone out because of it consuming to much oil. It is a huge safety problem because it could have shut off while I was driving it. Hyundai dealership is trying their best to not to have to pay for it. My check engine light came on and said spark plugs and coils needed to be changed. We changed them and they were coated in oil which isn't supposed to happen. My light was still on after changing them and the code reader was saying cylinder 1 misfire. I take it to the dealership and they said cylinder one has gone out. I think they dismissed it because the coils and plus were clean but we just changed them and maybe drove 10 miles so they wouldn't have had a chance to get coated in oil. I hope I don't have to get a lawyer to get my car fixed under the lawsuit like it needs to be. I know a few other people having the same problem and theirs is getting covered under the same lawsuit.

It should be stated first that I do regular oil changes in my Hyundai Tucson and was 700 miles from my next oil change. I purchased this vehicle around 2/8/22 (last year). This past weekend, I was driving and when I came to a stop, my oil light came on and the engine shut off. I managed to get my car to an auto store and the dipstick had no oil on it. We added a quart and managed to get the car home. On the way home, my engine was making a knocking sound. My husband took it for an oil change, and the tech noted that there was only about 2 quarts of oil (and that was after I had just added a quart). They completed a full oil change. We immediately made an appointment with Hyundai to have my car looked at and did not drive it until we were driving it to the appointment. On my way to the appointment, my engine began making a very loud knocking sound and would not accelerate properly. Finally, as I was pulling into the Hyundai dealership, my engine completely seized up, the oil and check engine light came on, and the car turned off while I was in the main road. I managed to coast it into the Hyundai parking lot. My Tucson is now at the Hyundai dealership after they had to tow it from the front of their parking lot and I am waiting on hearing back from them what is wrong. I am being told it could take one month before they can tell me anything, so I am without transportation for that long.

My vehicle is currently experiencing the Oil Consumption Defect that many others have complained about. My car stalled and eventually would only go 30 mph on hills. No low oil lights or indicators were observed before this happened. As well as in December of 2022, Hyundai had to replace my catalytic converter for $3000 which I believe now was the problem of the oil being consumed faster than it should be by the engine. I have been told repeatedly that my oil was almost gone even before an oil change was due. No leaks or oil was ever found outside of the vehicle. The dealership confirmed this issue of a defective rod bearing issue and submitted to Hyundai USA for a free engine under the warranty but are dragging their feet about it and keep requesting additional pictures etc. My safety was put at risk when due to no warning lights or anything, my car just stalled and stopped in the middle of the road. I also was told by an employee at the dealership that my vehicle barely passed Hyundai's bearing test and to "drive my vehicle until it blows up" and then they should be able to cover the engine.

Powertrain: Vehicle losses power especially going up inclines or hills. This happened before and I spent over 4500 dollars on repair of a catalytic convertor that failed. This was Late may of 2022. Now the car is back at a Hyundai dealership because the Catalytic Convertor has failed again it is Feb 2023. The car has extreme oil consumption which is one of the causes of catalytic convertor failures. The car in November of 2022 had a loss of power again but this time coils failed. Had all three coils and spark plugs replaced. The certified mechanic shop gave me the spark plugs and it was if they had a black felt on the tip of them. The mechanic said this was a sign of high oil consumption. High oil consumption is also a cause of coils and spark plugs failing prematurely. I have records to show how much oil I have bought and it is about 3 quarts every 1-2 months depending on how much I drive. This is extremely high and a sign of a faulty engine. It puts me in danger of being rear ended in traffic or on an open highway because it losses power. I use my car for work and sometimes that work takes me to small country towns. My work sometimes mean I get back when it is dark or get up when to get to work when it is dark. A car failure on a dark country road is unsafe.

I'd actually felt like this may have been happening for some time but it is a "Sport" and it always felt a little funky when you accelerrated. It was blistery cold so my initial thought was I left too quickly and the vehicle maybe needed time to warm up. It felt like the engine didn't either seem to be shifting to a higher gear, or getting enough power to accelerate which was very concerning as this happened as I pulled out onto a busier road, yet couldn't accelerate. I made it to my first stop but called my husband to express concern something seems off with the vehicle. I told him I would likely skip my errands and come home for him to take a look. After my stop, I started the Tucson up to head home - and now the check engine light came on (solid)! Apparently flashing check engine is more serious? I was able to make the drive home to unload groceries but the whole ride home I couldn't accelerate properly so it was a scary drive home, I drove slowly on backroads and used my flashers to get home safely. We immediately called the Hyundai dealer near us which closed. Called four times the next am as we needed whatever was going on fixed quickly.

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION causing engine failures. Excessive engine oil consumption, will also shorten the service life of, oxygen sensors and catalytic converters, spark plugs and much more. ALL which I have had to replace since buying vehicle used in May 2021. This vehicle is not on the vehicle engine replacement recall campaign and I am not sure why. THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A MAJOR ENGINE MANUFACTURING PROBLEM. Hyundai should be responsible for manufacturing problems and they also should do what it takes to fix the problem. MY REQUEST: for Hyundai to reimburse me the money I have spent fixing, repairing and money spent on oil to operate this vehicle. AS all the information shows, this is a manufacturing issue with the engine and NO VEHICLE should consume/burn this much oil. It has been proven that EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION causes engine and parts failures. THERE are no leaks detected either by the dealership or repair shops. Frequently having an oil change doesn’t change anything. I had an oil change (yes I have all receipts of repairs) less than a month ago and I have already had to put in 2 quarts of oil.

My vehicle was broken into on Nov. 17, 2022 and thieves attempted to take the vehicle after smashing the back passenger window and gaining access. The vehicle alarmed once they either attempted to either open the drivers side door or start the vehicle. Police were called and completed a report on scene. On Nov. 23, a thief returned and gained access to the vehicle by shattering the glass on the back driver side of the vehicle before getting inside and driving off in the vehicle. I reported the vehicle stolen to police and the vehicle was recovered later that evening. On Nov. 25 I went to the tow yard where the car was taken to retrieve my belongings and observe and record the damage. The entire steering column was stripped down and damaged which is how the thief was able to start it. There are highly circulated videos on social media platforms showing criminals or would be criminals how to do this. It is now also known that they are targeting specifically Kias and Hyundais due to Hyundai manufacturing cars between 2016-2020 without immobilizers. My make and model being one of them and therefore making me a target. Not only that but the cars are being taken and used for joy rides, as mine was, or used in crimes. My car sustained additional damage as it was crashed into another vehicle during the thieves joyride before they ultimately jumped out of the car and abandoned it in an intersection. I was targeted, my livelihood put in jeopardy and if the car is fixable I will still be in harm's way once the repairs are completed. Hyundai needs to be held accountable as there is no way I would have purchased this vehicle knowing that the car was missing a major safety and anti-theft component. Further, why were they allowed to manufacture and sell these cars without such an important component??

I was driving to work after dropping my son off and I took a right turn onto a street and my car slowed down and the check engine light came on, flashing. I continued to drive to work as I was one minute away and needed to get off the street asap. (where I turned had no room for pulling over). I parked my car. I had a prenatal appointment to go to, so I started my car. No check engine light when started until I got on the on ramp to the mass pike, my car went from 50 to 35 in a matter of minutes. I went into the breakdown lane until the next exit which was only a mile or so. I pulled into a gas station and called my husband to come get me as I still had an appointment to go to. After my appointment we retuned to my car and had it towed to the dealership as it is not safe to drive while pregnant. They told me it may be an engine issue and they will try to expedite my car. What annoys me is that this happened before and they claimed it was because I was over my oil change mileage and deemed it my fault and made me pay almost 300 for them to fix it. Yet I feel as if that just bought my engine time before it actually failed. This also happened with my 2015 Sonata Sport back in like 2018/2019 before someone rear ended me and totaled me. But what is my luck that this happens with 2 of my Hyundai. It is very frustrating.

I have a Hyundai Tuscon 2017 ECO and I am experiencing the same engine symptoms as others involved in recalls. The car is only 5 years old but I have noticed that it has stuttery starts from stops and when just trying to accelerate. The engine would often jerk while driving. The vehicle is at 111,000 miles and now the engine is knocking and has very weak take off to the point it’s not drivable. This poor take off has almost caused me to get hit multiple times. There is no telling when it would happen. After the knocking started I spoke with a mechanic who said that the engines burn oil quickly which I have never been told in the past five years. If this was the cause I would expect the manufacturer to inform the owners that is an issue. No one in the past 5 years worth of oil changes (including many at the dealership) mentioned this until the engine needs replaced. I would expect a engine to last longer then 5 years and 111,000 miles before giving out.

There are two problems with the car. The first is excessive engine knocking. I brought it into Island Hyundai on Staten Island. They originally denied there was an issue with some of the cars. They said for a $169 they would do a diagnostic test. They serviced the car and said it was fixed after initially denying there was a problem. The car seemed ok but over time the knocking returned. I return the had to do major engine work ie: cam shaft. Timing chain… On the second visit I complained of excessive oil loss. They checked and said it was a leaking valve cover gasket. They replaced the gasket. I took the car back and drove it. There is still excessive oil loss and still minor knocking occasionally when the car starts to move in first gear. I brought the car back in to the dealer, they claimed there was no knocking but that is what they said after the first time I brought in the car for service. They did not state that in writing on my invoice. They told me they sealed the oil access points and I should not check the oil. They did an oil consumption test. They told me to drive it and return in one thousand miles. I am returning tomorrow, Monday October 2nd to the Island Hyundai service department to have the oil levels checked. I asked if they will replace the engine if the engine fails during the consumption test. I only received a verbal yes from the service department manager at Island Hyundai. I contacted hyundai corporate to complain and have them assist me. I requested written confirmation of the engine replacement if it failed during the consumption test, They have done virtually nothing.

My vehicle has a high oil consumption problem. The problem was bad enough that it separated my catalytic converter. I had to pay 20% of the cost to fix. My share was over $500. It was said that this was caused by the high oil consumption issue. So the next step was started. I had an oil change with the intent that I would bring it in at 1000 miles to have the oil level checked. At the time of the oil check, I had driven 992 miles, the oil was checked and I was down almost two quarts. It does not leak oil on the ground when parked. The dealership contacted the manufacturer and they stated that was not an issue. The issue is a thrown rod, blown engine-from high oil consumption. I contacted the manufacturer. They sounded very sympathetic. However, they decided there was nothing they could do. Gave me $200 for my inconvenience and sent me on my way. My concern is what if I am on the highway going 70mph and my engine blows. What if I am in the left hand lane. What if my grand children are in the car with me. What if I can't get to work because something happens. I feel like I am driving a time bomb. I don't feel safe driving it any distance. Part of their not doing anything for me was because I didn't do anything before 60,000 miles. Well, I am the second owner. and I bought it at 61,000 miles.

I was driving on the Kansas turnpike at around 75 miles per hour. The tire started making a noise similar to driving on rough pavement. I pulled onto an exit ramp to check the tires. I saw a hole about 1/4” long in the sidewall and watched as the tire deflated. The tire was very hot to the touch and smoke came from the hole. I was in a unsafe area so slowly drove a few yards up the ramp where I could pull out of traffic. The tire tread had completely come off the tire and looked like it had been cut off the wheel with a knife. If the tire had come apart while traveling at a high speed, I believe I would had had a wreck. I have no idea why the tire came apart, the roads were dry and the temperature was 90 degrees F. I hit no pot hole and the was no visible puncture or nail in the tire. The tire was one of four I purchased as a set. Now my wife is afraid to drive her vehicle worried that one of the other tires may also fall apart.

Subsequently following an engine replacement due to recall, there is now an electrical issue which has caused something to burn or possibly start fire as there is a burning smell from the hood and heat coming from under the hood into the car's cabin from the dashboard area and the drivers seat bottom is very hot. The heat increases rapidly inside the car from the engine, whenever it is on and running or on and idle. This is obvious how my life was at risk as every time i put the key in ignition, my life was at risk of fire or explosion or worse while driving. Car also sputters or stays idle when trying to quickly accelerate and this happens at random. The following list is more (minor) electrical malfunctions that have gradually become noticeable as I was using the vehicle: Cigarette light/phone charger power outlet does not stay connected and works sporadically; Dashboard alerts are random and inaccurate; Seems tires fall below normal psi daily and need to be filled with air more frequently tires were new before recall repairs. Oil changes more frequent also. Light bulbs burned out. Problems ongoing and i am unable to drive vehicle due to risk of death.

I called the dealership and was told because my car was 5 years and 2 months old (but less than 60,000) it no longer fell under the manufacturers warranty. This is not a wear and tear issue.

When I removed the front passenger tire to inspect it I noticed there was bulging in the tread and the tire would not roll across the floor smoothly. I checked the rear passenger side tire at the same time and it also had bulging in the tread and would not roll smoothly across the floor without tipping over when it hit the bulge. I believe these tires should be recalled along with the other batch of Kumo tires from the same time. That have already been recalled.

This car was bought in 2019 from Car Max. Every few months, I get a check engine light and was part of a recall notice. I went to Hyndai Dealer CMA's Colonial Hyndai in Chester VA 23831 with the recall notice. They gave me a receipt that there are no issues on 17th May 22which was incorrect. My check engine light keeps coming on for an oil change and I had an emergency travelling from Viriginia to Atlanta and have to pull over to the closest repair shop where they indicated that recall issue was not resolved as the engine was consuming more oil faster resulting in the check engine light. I was surprised to hear that as the dealer indicated that there are no issues with regards to the recall. This was unacceptable from a dealer who was supposed to diagnose the problem and let the customer know that the engine problem still exists and you need to have engine oil changed every 2 months. If an engine recall indicates the engine requires a replacement they should have done an honest job and not fill the engine oil and let the customer know that there are no issues. I have all the documentation from the dealer that no issues were found but every day I drive, I am worried that car could stop anytime which is unnecessary stress owning this car. Any help in escalating this issue with the dealer or Hyundai in doing the right thing for their defective manufacturing will be appreciated.

Drivers seat, seat belt at the lap tightens while driving to the point it is brusing hip bones. Even if someone loosens it, the seat belt automatically tightens up to the point it is dangerous in a collision because it can cause internal injuries or more severe injuries. The seat belt design is flawed in that it pulls extra belt from only from the top, so the bottom of the lap belt is fixed and that part is getting too tight and cannot be consistently comfortable or loose enough that it does not bruise or cause injuries to hips and laps. The issue has been ongoing and a major concern. I have contacted Hyundai who said it may or may not be under warranty but expected for me to pay for a visit to the shop to find out when this is a safety issue. Secondly the headlight system keeps failing. What I mean is the left driveres low beam/regular headlight continually burns out despite replacement with new bulbs. The passenger side lo beam/ regular headlight burned out recently and when replaced with the correct light bulb the regular setting for headlights no longer adequately lights the road despite bulbs being installed correctly and exactly as instructed. The lights now face down and are very low. We have changed out the bulbs with different brands and have found the same issue so it has to be an issue with the headlights themselves.

We contacted the dealership where we purchased the car and they couldn't get us in until June 17th. On Friday, May 13th while driving down 90 interstate the car's engine died and the automobile had to be towed to the dealership. Due to worker shortages the dealer is saying it could take up to a year to fix and did not offer alternative transportation.

I purchased my 2017 Tucson in 2020. It was the first car I’ve ever owned. I do not know much about cars but I noticed that there was some hesitation in acceleration and the engine was loud. Sometimes I would hear soft knocking on colder days but nothing extreme. I was told that the acceleration hesitation and the loud engine are due to the turbo. Then on 4/27/2022, without any warning, my engine stalled while I was at a traffic light. More importantly, I had ZERO warning lamps or messages. No engine warning or oil light was illuminated. My engine suddenly stalled. I don't drive my car very far. Use is relatively light. On average I drive about 10-20 miles per day. No one was hurt but what if this had happened on the highway? I would have definitely been rear-ended and hurt. My car passed inspection on 09/10/21. But earlier this year, on 22nd February 2022, I took it to the dealer for the engine recall (NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V727000). They assessed it and said it passed the tests but I have no way of knowing because the dealer would not share the full report. Additionally, the dealer did not address that the vehicle warning lamps and messages were not working when they noticed my oil was low. Hyundai has a long history of engine issues and recalls with regards to high oil consumption and connecting rod bearings inside the engine may wear prematurely. There are hundreds of complaints that match my description. Their engines have had issues since 2020 and these complaints date back to 2020 around the time I bought this vehicle. Even though there were no recalls at the time, the dealer should have disclosed these issues. I think it's negligence by Hyundai and the dealer for investigating why my warning lamps did not illuminate and did not properly communicate the seriousness of these issues.

Hyundai inspected it but won’t give me the diagnosis or the issue with the car specifically. Initially when it happened no lights were on. It just shut down and wouldn’t move. A couple days later check engine came on.

door handle latch will not open door from inside or out due to either defective latch or cable. this is a very dangerous condition for occupant that could become trapped and unable to escape vehicle. seems that there are multiple reports of this happening.

Went in for recalls in feb, not even 2 weeks later car was put into limp mode check engine light flashing. Car was towed to dealership where car was purchased where they said it was due to metal shavings in engine. Car was delivered to Hyundai where they diagnosed it with a faulty knock sensor which had just been replaced not even 2 weeks prior. After getting it towed to another Hyundai dealer for a second opinion was told that bolts from the recall work were cross threaded and broken off into motor causing the metal shavings. Really unclear as to what happened but Hyundai refuses to replace engine warranty was denied. Unsure if Hyundai is aware of the failed engine due to recalls

My 2017 Hyundai Tucson refuses to accelerate after a complete stop at a traffic light, or just refuses to change gears after making a turn, or simply just lose power although on cruise control while drive on the freeway. I have reported the issue several times to Hyundai and the dealership, it seems that nothing can't be done and Hyundai is not taking my concerns seriously. I am not afraid to drive the car since I have a long commute to work, I escape several accidents before because the other drivers were cautious and kind enough when they notice that my car couldn't accelerate. Drivers have blown the horn at me on the highway because the car refuses to accelerate or change gear while I am driving. I can press the gas pedal all the way down, still nothing. When I press the gas pedal down, the engine start shaking and making a weird noise while the car still not accelerating or changing gears. I also notice that I am burning more fuel than expected, and I always get below the average for typical MPG. I personally consider this car is unsafe to drive, and I am strongly thinking about trade it in.

Due to a faulty alarm and anti-theft system, my car was broken into and stolen. This has been an ongoing epidemic and Hyundai has done nothing to acknowledge and fix the situation.

My 2017 Hyundai Tuscon 1.6L Turbo failed on a 55mph highway with no warning signs, no check engine light, no low oil pressure light, very faint noise was heard prior to completely failing. Vehicle was towed to a local shop who stated there are 100s of thousand of recalls for this exact situation, then towed to Hyundai dealer who said they have 25 cars in line waiting for engine replacements. My vehicle is not part of a recall yet, but like with the other Hyundai engines is at risk of failing at high speeds risking massive injury and death. My vehicle does not qualify for the KSDS knock sensor they are putting in other vehicles to warn the driver of catastrophic engine failure. A warning to get off the road is nice, but these engines are a danger to those who operate them and those who may collide with them at high speeds in the event of engine failure in lower visibility than my case or even inclement weather.

There was a recall for a malfunction in my engine that could potentially cause the vehicle to catch on fire. The signs associated were knocking in the engine, failure to accelerate, check engine light was on, and the oil light would come on when making turns. I made these observations before a recall was issued, and tried to have vehicle repaired from Priority Hyundai in Chesapeake, VA. They had my vehicle for 6 days and failed to diagnose my vehicle. Less than a month later, my daughter and I were almost hit on the interstate due to the car failing to accelerate. Took my vehicle to Hall Hyundai in Newport News, VA. They performed the recall items, and the car ran better, but I could still hear the knocking. February 7, 2022, my daughter and I were stranded because the car was not accelerating again. Pulled over to an Advanced Auto Parts store and the technician said there was a problem with the gaskets, but said he wouldn't drive it. Had my car taken back to Hall Hyundai and was told there wasn't any oil on the dipstick, but they had changed the oil a month before. Had an engine combustion cleaning done. Picked my vehicle up the next day and before I got home, the check engine light was back on, and the engine knocking. I no longer drive my car because my daughter is scared in it, and I have lost confidence that we aren't going to end up on the side of the road somewhere. The engine jumps as if the car is going to either take off or shut down completely. Asked the representative at Hall if I should bring the car back, but never received a response. The car and it has less than 100K miles on it. I've done the required maintenance. I like Hyundai cars, but will most likely switch brands because I can't get any help to repair a vehicle I've had for less than two years. I've paid rental car/maintenance fees that equal at least 8 car payments. The recall said repair or replace, and at this point, I feel a replacement is necessary.

Since 2018 (about a year after my vehicle’s purchase), I have intermittently had problems with the vehicle hesitating when pressing the accelerator. There have been about 10 instances where the vehicle will only go 5-10 mph for 10 seconds or so while I try to merge onto a highway and have the accelerator pressed down hard. When I took these concerns to a dealership, I was told it “should not be happening” and that it was likely not occurring because no warning lights were illuminated. I was told that the hesitation was likely just because the vehicle has a double clutch, although this is an unlikely explanation for an issue that can easily cause a fatal accident. Since this happens infrequently, it has not been replicated by a dealer or independent service center. No issues with the engine or speed control have been discovered when I have taken the vehicle in for service. Obviously, this problem is serious even if it does not happen often. A vehicle not responding when the accelerator is pressed puts the vehicle’s occupants at risk of collision, and also risks the safety of occupants in oncoming vehicles.

On September 20th, 2021, I was on my way to my appointment with Maguire Hyundai in Ithaca, NY when the engine in my 2017 Hyundai Tucson failed. I ended up having to get my car towed to the dealership at my own expense. I made the appointment originally because my car had been making strange noises for 1-2 weeks and the check engine light had come on. At this time, there was not yet a recall for this engine failure in 2017 Tucsons (or at least I had not been notified of one yet and the dealership said nothing about it). According to your website, the recall campaign for the exact issue/situation with my car began September 17th, 2021, and since having my car towed to the dealership I have received multiple notices about the recall. Maguire Hyundai has had my car since September 20th, and the engine has still not been replaced. They tested the engine and found that it was punctured and needed to be replaced. They claimed they had to contact the warranty folks to get approval that it would be covered, which I don't understand because if there's a recall it should be replaced at no charge. Once they got that approval, they said it could take awhile for the engine to get here and for them to actually work on the car. I received a call on 1/27/22 that they finally put the new engine into my car, but the engine does not work/they were sent a bad engine. It has been over 4 months now that they've had my car and we have gotten nowhere. I am skeptical about what this dealership is telling me and if they know what they are doing/have really been doing their best to get my car taken care of. I feel that my car not being finished after 4 months is absurd and I am seeking any assistance possible with this matter.

We had the car towed to Shottenkirk Hyundai. We were told the car needed a new motor. Hyundai corporate said they would split the cost of a goodwill motor with us, but we would have to wait until November for it to come in. Our cost was $4500. We agreed. Then we were called and told sorry you need a Catalytic Converter also additional $600. We agreed, as I was pregnant and just wanted my car back. In December, we were told sorry but your wiring harness is bad and that's what made the motor fail. So that will be an additional $4500. At which point we were in the hospital having our newborn. We told them not to do anything else as we weren't going to spend $10K on this vehicle. We are at our wits end with this car and dealing with the dealership and the corporate office and don't know what else to do.

The vehicles transmission sputters and takes 2-4 seconds to accelerate. This consistently happens both from a dead stop and at low speeds. This transmission/ dual clutch lag has almost caused at least 3 accidents. On 2 separate occasions the car almost stalled while making a left turn at an intersection, causing a near missed T-bone accident. The 3rd close call was almost being rear ended and not being able to accelerate away. Luckily, no accident had occurred yet but this transmission issue is without question a safety risk. I have brought the car to the Hyundai service department and have been told that this is common with the dual clutch system and nothing is wrong with the car. I'm sure this is not the first complaint as I have found a plethora if online forums on this particular issue with my exact year and make vehicle. This issue has and will continue to cause accidents until resolved.

2017 Hyundai Tucson is part of engine recalls 209 & 966. Car purchased through Carvana begin of May, after initial recall issued but unaware car was impacted. All that is listed on recall page is CAMP 966 - ENGINE MONITORING LOGIC - VARIOUS MODELS which most certainly does not indicate a major issue or immediate need to address. In August, took car in for oil change and almost immediately had the engine fail. The oil change establishment sent to an automotive garage of their choosing to have replaced. At that time the latest and most severe recall was not yet in place. On November 18, quite rapidly, below warning signs and issues were experienced creating a very dangerous situation.  * Abnormal (knocking) noise from the engine * Reduced engine power and/or hesitation * Illumination of the Check Engine warning light * Illumination of engine oil pressure warning light * A burning smell, oil leaking, and/or smoke (all of the above)  This the led to stranded on the side of road with smoking, dangerous vehicle. Had to have car towed to the nearest dealership Red Rock Grand Junction which then said couldn’t do anything due to not following initial recall for software.  Contacted Hyundai customer service repeatedly to try and remedy situation. Finally case manager stated engine repair would begin immediately, but dealership stated would only start after paying $300 for new battery; battery that worked when car was towed. When stated as much, then again told weren’t responsible for replacing engine due to failure to install the software. Nowhere in the campaign information does it state that this is a requirement.  Hyundai had created a very dangerous situation and is refusing to remedy based on loophole leaving people stranded with unusable fire hazard cars by no fault of their own.

I work about 30 miles away from home. A few miles away from work the knocking sound increased and still no warning lights on my dash. As I got close to work, less than a mile away, the knocking got extremely loud and the check engine light came on when I pulled in to work. I cannot drive this car and I was afraid that I would be stranded on the road somewhere or the engine may catch on fire because I could smell a burnt odor.

Engine started to make a strange noise and wasn't accelerating like normal, there were no dashboard warning or indocation lights. Less than 24 hours later while driving to a mechanic it got significantly worse within minutes of starting and than while driving on the highway a loud kind of snapping noise occured. The vehicle was not able to accelerate and the engine was completely deadlined and had to be coasted into a lot from an off ramp putting myself and others on the road at risk. A trail of oil was visible from where it had coasted and then below it after it got towed. It was taken to the closest mechanic who informed me there was a hole in the engine block and that the vehicle had a recall. It was then taken to a hyundai dealership where it was verbally mentioned that the vehicle broke due to a recall but since then the only statement has been that it would be repaired under warranty and no diagnosis has been provided.

The transmission completely disengages and there is 0 power to the car, it just coasts for about 6 seconds and the car slows down. It happens after a turn from a stop, and at slower speeds around 20 - 30 MPH. You push the gas pedal, and nothing happens, the engine does not rev and you just coast (and slow down). If this happens when I’m pulling out in traffic making a left it could be deadly. I promise you there will be accidents due to this defect and I would imagine some people will die because of it. This happens regularly, it is not a one-time incident. I just bought the vehicle a month ago and it's happened 10 to 20 times.

I am filing a complaint regarding my 2017 Hyunda Tucson engine; I am very concerned about the recall 209 that was released in September 2021, 3 months ago, regarding an engine recall due of premature wear of the connecting rod bearings that can cause engine fire. My vehicle has had significant oil consumption issues for the last 1.5 years, causing me to have to put oil in the car regularly between oil changes, irregular engine noise, oil pressure light illumination as well as engine hesitation and stalling. Each of these things are related to the symptoms cited as an engine issue related to recall 209. There is no remedy available for this issue and no timeline for when one will be released.

to whom it may concern , I have a 2017 Hyundai Tucson that has really bad and scary engine and transmission issues , this car has had a recall to fix constant bucking of the engine at slow speeds and even after the recall it went right back to the same behavior and has now developed slow acceleration and has even attempted to stall on the highway during lane changes , it is the only car I have and I have had really difficult times with it and the dealership has once again told me that they have no loaners available and that they likely will need a few days to diagnose the issues if any. the latest problem is a rapid rpm acceleration that despite the speed being under 45 it causes a screen to pop up that states (transmission temp high stop safely) flooded at random by another message saying( a condition with your engine control system has been detected and a full system check is recommended at your convenience) along with that , the air conditioner shuts off at random and fills the car with humid smelly air. they refuse to do anything @ the dealership except give excuses as these warnings and car behaviors come and go as they please and without the evidence they can't fix what is not visibly broken. as a struggling American I can't receive the treatment other makers give their customers and Hyundai has turned their back on American import buyers , and until someone dies this will not become a recall or a problem for them , so with that said , I am hoping that nhtsa can look into these issues as they are scattered throughout many forums and if something happens to me with this car that I am afraid of driving without a choice as I am a contractor for the ny tri state area, I now have this letter as proof of my complaint . ps , this car is readily available to be driven by any of your investigators if you desire to look further into this .

I have had an ongoing issue with my 2017 Hyundai Tucson since May 17, 2021. Like many other owners, I have recently learned about the recall on engines for the 2017 Hyundai Tucson. In the information with the announcement of the recall, the article stated, “The issue has caused at least 18 fires, but no injuries, according to documents from the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration”. I wanted to know if my vehicle was one of these 18 fires? If it was, I would like to know that I will be covered under this recall, and the engine in my vehicle will be replaced. I can begin to be reimbursed for the $1,000s of car rentals that I was told would be reimbursed before my warranty claim was denied. If it is not one of those 18 cars? Why not? I will give more information below on what happened to me and my car. Through further research, Attachment A on the NHTSA website states that “As of the date of this filing, Hyundai is aware of 45 fires related to the recall condition”.

2017 Tucson Limited 1.6L power train malfunction due to vehicle’s dual clutch transmission. While accelerating, the vehicle frequently pauses, best described as a frozen hesitation of failed movement. During this hesitation, the vehicle’s RPMs will be very high. After approximately 3-6 seconds, the vehicle begins to move rapidly in a jerking motion, often with enough torque to push the driver’s back to the seat. This malfunction is extremely unsafe and scary, especially when it occurs while driving through intersections and when merging with traffic. The manufacturer has said this issue is only related to a computer update. There are no warning lights or alarms when this malfunction occurs. Recently, the check engine light turned on and now has a transmission error code: unable to engage first gear. This malfunction has occurred since I bought the new vehicle. For additional context, I change the oil every 4,000 - 5,000 miles, along with all filters and other fluids when recommended, and use quality gas. Routine maintenance has been performed by an independent repair facility. Services performed are protected by federal law from manufacturer implying or denying warranty service because of this (Magnussen-Moss Act, Title 15, Chapter 50, Section 2301-3312).

My vehicle had an engine failure. I was driving the Vehicle and suddenly the oil pressure light came on, loud noises came from the engine rapidly came after the oil pressure light, and the car stalled out within a minute of the oil pressure light coming on. Judging by the sounds, I believe there was a catastrophic engine failure. This situation appears to be exactly as described in NHTSA Recall # 21V727000. Since this recall was issued, Hyundai has not provided any notice to people that such a major safety issue had potential to occur. The vehicle has been towed to a Hyundai Dealership. However, neither the Hyundai dealership nor Hyundai can provide any meaningful communication other than they would begin their inspection of the vehicle in as soon as one month from when they vehicle was placed in their possession, however, given the exact circumstance described in NHTSA Recall # 21V727000 is what took placed, I find it difficult to believe that any other situation could have lead to this engine failure for a vehicle that is just approaching 50,000 miles

Purchased my 2017 Hyundai Tucson 1.6 Turbo SUV in mid-July 2021 from CarMAX. Brought it into their service department because it seemed like the battery was dying due to the car not wanting to start/turn over, or turning over veeeerrrry slowly, while holding down the push-button start. CarMAX replaced the battery and checked over the acceleration issues I also reported. At that time (July), the vehicle had also randomly opened it's trunk, with no outside communication to do so. At first I thought it was a fluke, but it's been happening so often lately (now October 2021) that now my husband is constantly checking to make sure the trunk is closed-because the key fobs will be hanging up/away from people/out of pockets but the trunk will still open randomly. TODAY, 25OCT2021, I got a phone call from my husband while I'm at work-telling me that while he was driving our son to work, the trunk decided to RANDOMLY OPEN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, spilling all the contents of my trunk out onto the highway!! This is clearly some kind of electrical issue, that I see other Hyundai owners have been experiencing since AT LEAST 2011-and not all Tucsons, either! When calling around to various mechanics (because the car is, of course, out of warranty), its going to be at least $150 to diagnose the problem (not including FIXING it), and I have to either sit and wait all day for the fix to be done (IF it can be fixed same day!) and be without my only vehicle. This seems to be a recurring issue with Hyundai vehicles, which is quite sad, because I've owned Hyundais before and they were WONDERFUL cars. I would hate to have reached the end of my relationship with Hyundai after seeing all the ELECTRICAL issues that seem to be popping up everywhere, causing fires, causing people's cars to randomly STOP and/or TURN OFF in traffic (have had that happen also, with a Toyota), vehicle FIRES, lights burning so hot they melt their housings, etc. THESE ARE *ALL* ELECTRICAL/WIRING HARNESS RELATED!

My back passenger door won't open from the inside. The door appears to be unlocked, but it doesn't open. I recently received notice that Hyundai has issued a warranty extension for the door latch on this model, so it's a known issue that's obviously quite common. It seems to me that a widespread door latch malfunction is a safety issue that would be better addressed with a recall. I appreciate that my current problem will be covered under warranty. But stories shared online from other owners would lead me to believe that my other doors are likely to fail as well, and the extended warranty is only good until 100,000 miles. That may sound generous, but if they know their door latch is faulty, they should be required to replace all 4 doors with a latch that's not likely to fail.

Car stalled with no warning/check engine lights. There is still no fix. I don’t want to keep paying on a car that is going to cause an accident while driving! I’m lucky I wasn’t going at high speeds when it stalled. My children and myself could have died! No one ever called to do any testing but they knew about the recall in July when they told me about it.

My 2017 Hyundai Tucson 1.6 L Turbo has been stalling, bumping, knocking, and using copious amounts of oil for the past several months. I checked the oil level and discovered that the engine had nearly completely run out of oil. I immediately brought the vehicle to my local dealership and they seemed completely mystified by the problem. They advised that I run the car through an expensive oil consumption diagnostic test. I did not, opting instead to do some research myself. Lo and behold, I quickly discovered that both Hyundai corporate and local franchisees have been well aware of the issue for some time. It involves connecting rod bearing failure. A class action suit was filed over the issue in California federal court and Hyundai corporate agreed to fix the problem through a voluntary settlement. Unfortunately, that settlement only covered Tucson models before and after my model year. If you wish to learn more about this issue, it has its own website (HyundaiThetaEngine Settlement.com). To further complicate matters, Hyundai corporate has in the interim issued a voluntary recall for my model year 2017. Unfortunately, it appears my specific model may be excluded. I can be reached at [XXX] or at [XXX]. Please get back to me ASAP, preferably before my car completely runs out of oil and the engine explodes. Thank you for your time.

Hello. I recently took my car to the authorized mechanic and had them check on an issue I am experiencing. For some reason, my car frequently hesitates when I go from a complete stop/slow roll to accelerate. For example, if I am stopped waiting to turn, often when I push the gas to accelerate, the car will begin to accelerate and then basically stop. When this has happened, I've pushed my foot down to the floor on the pedal before to make it go and it refused to go for about 20 or so seconds. Additionally, if I am in slow moving traffic and traffic begins to speed up, my car will hesitate to go forward when I try to accelerate. This is a huge safety concern. The mechanic was not able to replicate this issue, but it happens every day or every other day. It makes me scared to drive because it's almost caused accidents. I read I'm not the only one with this issue and honestly, it's a miracle no one has died yet as a result of this faulty issue.

My car was purchased brand new in November of 2017. It has 71k mikes on it and has been regularly maintained. I began To notice around 50k miles that the oil was brining at an accelerated amount. My car required oil before the designated 5k miles and it would begin “clicking” which alerted me to this issue. September 17, 2021 I was Driving and my vehicle failed to accelerate and began making noises that resembled the oil issue. My car had a full synthetic oil change less than 3k miles ago and by the time I pulled Into my driveway the car stalled. Checked oil and it was low. Added 3 quarts of oil on 9/17/21 and left it to sit. 9/18/21 car started and was driven to car wash and was sitting idle for approximately 45 minutes and on drive home, stalled and had to have oil added again. No leaks were present at anytime and no smoke. Went to dealership where I purchased vehicle and was told they would need to do oil consumption test but that would require me driving it 1k miles up to three times. I explained that my vehicle was breaking down and I was Fearful to drive it. In fact I bought A new car on 9/18/21 and have to get this car fixed to sell. Dealership said this is a known problem and no other way to assess than for me to drive the car the 1k miles and test it. It is still under warranty. I was also informed of an ABS issue that they can fix at same time. While all of these issues are going on, no check engine light or any other diagnostic symbol appears. This makes it hard to even catch before getting to the point of stalled engine. This can be a danger to myself, family and others when car stalls on major highway.

I bought this car as a certified pre-owned vehicle 5 weeks before this incident occured... While driving on a highway with a full load in the trunk, several warning lights progressively came on: traction control, downhill assist, oil and emergency brake. I continued to my destination (airport parking garage) as there was nowhere safe to pull off. As I approached the airport, an additional large red triangle illuminated in the center of the dashboard saying "check ----" (4 letters, I don't remember what they were). I stopped to get my parking ticket, and the car rolled backward as I tried to begin moving. I gunned the engine, and was able to get to a parking spot, but felt the car had very little power. On my return approximately 36 hours later the oil light was still on; so it was towed to the nearest Hyundai dealer. The tow truck driver commented on it having low power as he tried to drive it onto the tow truck ramp. This Hyundai dealer was unable to find anything wrong. I drove it to the dealer from whom I had bought the car; they tried to recreate the situation where this occurred, and said they were unable to do so. I am concerned as this problem has not been diagnosed or repaired, and did cause a partial loss of power, which could have caused an accident. My dealer has traded me out of this vehicle into another car, as I no longer felt safe in this one.

When accelerating from a stop, the vehicle "chugs" or hesitated substantially before actually accelerating. There is usually a noticeable jerk at that point as well. Concern is this usually happens when turning and has caused safety issues related being stuck in an intersection until the transmission releases and allows the vehicle to accelerate. Several trips to the dealership have provided no repair/relief to the issue. We are always informed its a known issue with the double-clutch engine and just something we need to get used to. Most recently, the transmission is "slipping" when accelerated. This has happened at minimum 5 times in the past month.

Dangerous acceleration issues... my car hesitates for almost 10 seconds when accelerating from a complete stop, at a stop light or turning into oncoming traffic and sometimes changing lanes at low speeds. This has caused near accidents on several occasions. I have even experienced the vehicle completely shutting off while idling and moving at low speeds in heavy traffic or going thru a drive thru restaurant. The Drive Clute Transmission (DCT) description that came with my vehicle when I purchased it mentioned "a direct driving feeling which may fee different" ... "more noticeable when starting from a stop or low vehicle speed"... what it failed to mention is that the car would delay or hesitate for near 10 seconds then leap forward or even completely shut off putting my safety and the safety of other drivers at risk for injury or worse fatality. The DCT is a major safety concern and a common reported issue. Why aren'tyou doing anything to help consumers? I'm tired of dealership mechanics stating there's nothing they can do to fix the issue because Hyundai hasn't issued any recalls. The 2016 model had a recall for this same issue. I am a single mother and veteran and I need to have a safe running vehicle. Hyundai boasts the best warranty available and I even purchased an extended at the time of purchase so why can't Hyundai/dealership do anything to fix this?

We bought our 2017 Tucson with about 40000 miles in 2019. We have had some issues that are to be covered by the warranty. The last was the engine going. I was extremely religious about regular maintenance and always took it to the dealership to have the oil changed and other work every 3000. 2 of the last 4 oil changes cost me over $400 and $600 due to what I thought was work required to maintain the warranty, finding out later that this was false and the service people lied. In the last 4 oil changed I reported excessive oil consumption, 1 qt per 1000 miles at least. They told me this was normal and to be expected. I was 4 hours in to a 8 hour drive when the engine failed. I had checked and filled the oil before I left, in 4 hours it consumed over 3qts. It took me at least a month of dealing with the warranty company to cover as we had a lifetime powertrain warranty. They were not going to cover it due to lack of lubricant. As I told them the engine was failing before this incident. The dealer did not record my requests to find the oil consumption problem. It has now been 4 months, still making car payments and waiting for them to put a used engine in it. We were not offered a choice of whether used or rebuild. This is a known problem and have found class action suits for similar vehicles but for whatever reason earlier and later models are included, same engine and same problem as those part of the class action.

UNKNOWN. I bought my 2017 Hyundai Tuscon brand new in 2016. This car was not owned by anyone prior to me and had 11 miles on the dashboard. I maintained this car as I should have and got oil changes before the suggested time provided by the dealer. Now fast forward to 2020/2021 and my car is louder, making noises, not driving smoothly, and having trouble accelerating sometimes. I tell the dealer and they say nothing is wrong with my car but these problems persist. Eventually while driving to work early this year (spring 2021) my car completely stalls and will hardly drive faster than 5mph. I took the car to a mechanic (not Hyundai because they never have answers) that told me my catalytic converter was completely clogged and that it was an unusual thing to see in such a new car with only 100,000 miles on it. They replaced the converter and now it doesn’t stall. The car still continues to drive less smooth and the engine knocks and makes rattle noises but Hyundai still says they don’t see any other issue with the car. My mechanic told me it seems as if the car is burning the oil up because even when i come to get an oil change early it’s always bone dry my car is always starting to get super loud and check engine light comes on well before I’m due to change it so i take it up and get an oil change but i believe this is a defect on the car and i shouldn’t have to continue doing this eventually it’s going to cause even worse problems for my car, i read other reviews and I’m not the only one complaining of the oil burning up with no leak or other explanation, clearly this is a manufacturer defect!

Fast forward to April 2019 and the issue never resolved itself and ultimately resulted in a thrown rod. Engine was replaced.

Check oil and it is on low. drop off at dealer they claim nothing is wrong. Force me to pay for another oil change and perform a 500 mile oil consumption test which will involve me driving this car on the highway with an engine that can seize at any moment potentially killing me or others on the road. Leave dealership and the car continues to spew smoke from tail pipe. No check engine lights appear during either event. This is incredibly dangerous and needs to be added to a lawsuit.

I bought my 2017 Hyundai Tuscon with 38,905 miles on it. My engine blew up at 70,806 miles while I was on my way to work.My husband was changing the oil and when he pulled the oil plug from the oil pan, NOTHING came out of the pan. We assumed the dealer just didn't put oil back in it or not enough. The mileage on the Tuscon the last time we took it to the dealer was at 54,988. We put a 7,500-mile oil change in it and the next oil change, it was dry again. No oil light, no engine light, no oil spots on the ground or the engine. No evidence of it leaking anywhere. Fast forward a few oil changes, sooner than suggested, we changed the oil at around 68,000 miles with no issues (only because we were changing the oil every 3,500 miles or so). Then while on my way home from work one evening, all my dash lights came on, my car sounded and ran extremely rough for the 15 miles I had until I reached my house. As I pulled up the driveway, you could hear it knocking loudly so I checked my oil and the engine was BONE DRY, it had only been 2,200 miles since the last oil change so it shouldn't have been empty. We added the 5 quarts of oil that it needed and drove it down the road a mile or so to listen and feel it, nothing was wrong; it sounded fine and ran well. The next morning it ran for 15 min in my driveway, warming up, and drove 8 miles and I heard a loud clank. It stalled, I was able to start it back up, it stalled again and I had to coast it half a mile to get it out of the road and into a driveway out of harm's way. It had to be towed to the dealer. They ran several tests to find out that "cylinder 3 had spun its bearings leaving heavy amounts of metal in the oil and pan noted, premature material failure of bearing is cause of rod knocking. Engine will need replaced due to introduction of metal on all moving components." It was in the shop for a month being repaired and now with only 5,222 miles on the engine, I've already had to add almost 4 quarts of oil in 2 months.

Back rear door suddenly stopped opening. Door is unlocked but will not open from the inside or outside. Upon googling the issue, it appears that MANY people have this issue with this car and are being charged astronomical amounts to fix it. Not being able to open the car door from the inside is an obvious safety issue.

When accelerating from a full stop or yield, vehicle takes up to 3 seconds to fully respond to pedal. Vehicle will move about 5ft forward during this 3 second lag time. After the lag time, the vehicle jerks into motion. Very dangerous to turn onto a busy road with 35mph speed limit.

Yesterday my rear passenger door on the driver's side stopped opening from the inside and outside. The door was unlocked and not on child lock. There is no way opening this door at the moment! It is a safety concern in case of an emergency and passengers must exit quickly! There are no warning lamps and I read on forums that it is a known problem yet Hyundai is charging a fee to diagnose the problem. If this is happening to many vehicles please make it a recall!

When accelerating from a stopped position, the car will sometimes not move forward or will sometimes surge forward at high speed or will at other times move forward but will do so in a jerky uncontrolled manner. Been trying to get the dealer to fix this but I'm told this condition is normal. There's no way this is normal! When pulling onto a busy highway I never know if the car will respond to acceleration of not move for several seconds. This car is dangerous and I feel that it's only a matter of time that I will be in an accident because of this condition.

THE VEHICLE WOULD START TO MOVE AND THEN FREQUENTLY STALL (ABRUPTLY LOSE POWER) WHEN ACCELERATING TO GO FROM A STOP. IT WAS ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS WHEN MAKING A LEFT TURN, AS IT WOULD STALL IN THE PATH OF ONCOMING VEHICLES. IT WAS ALSO A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM WHEN THE CAR BEHIND MINE WOULD ACCELERATE TO GO, AFTER IT APPEARED I WAS MOVING, AND WOULD THEN NEED TO TAKE EVASIVE ACTION TO NOT REAR-END MY CAR AS IT STALLED MOMENTARILY. AFTER STALLING, THE VEHICLE WOULD EITHER LUNGE FORWARD SUDDENLY, OR I WOULD HAVE TO RELEASE AND QUICKLY REAPPLY THE ACCELERATOR. I ALSO EXPERIENCED THREE OCCASIONS WHEN THE CAR WOULD MOVE FORWARD WHILE IT WAS IN REVERSE GEAR. BOTH OF THOSE ISSUES ALSO CREATED SOME VERY SCARY CLOSE CALLS.

I own a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. While trying to get my elderly Grandmother out of the backseat to her appointment the rear drivers side door failed and would not open. After multiple attempts trying to open from outside and inside my ninety year old Grandmother had to maneuver herself to get out of the other door. This is a safety issue and Hyundai needs to address it. I have spoke with multiple Hyundai owners whom have experienced the same problem. What if there was an emergency/fire and no access to an available door??? I’m unsure if my service warranty will cover it, I’m scheduled to have it replaced but of course Hyundai is out weeks for appointments. With growing concern and thousands with the same problem this needs to be addressed immediately!

We had a recent onset of issues with our 2017 Tucson Limited Ultimate that is alarming and potentially dangerous. I am most concerned with the safety of my wife and child as this is her primary vehicle. We have a new issue, relating to the door locks - that I would like to address, but would like to give the recent history or events before I get to that. We recently addressed a recall relating to a brake module - a potential fire hazard, as well as failed Turbo that caused a sudden loss of power at a critical time. This could have been a potential wreck, but thankfully it was avoided. Now we are at another safety issue that needs to be addressed with the door locks. This is concerning, inconvenient, and most likely not covered as a recall as it should be. Around 6 months ago there was a sudden power loss and whistling sound from the engine compartment. This happened while entering a turn in a busy intersection, which could have caused an accident. I took it to the dealer, and the problem was diagnosed as a faulty Turbo Charger and required order and replacement. Luckily this was covered on the warranty. The problem was resolved. Then I received a notification of a recall for the Brake Control Module because of the potential of fire in the engine compartment. I scheduled an appointment at my local dealer and had that replaced at no additional cost to me. My local dealership was about to resolve this issue as well. Today, I went to take my daughter to school and the rear passenger door would not open from the outside or the inside. The door lock clicks, but we are not able to exit the vehicle from that side or open the door from the outside. Upon researching on the internet, it's a ongoing issue with the door actuator. https://www.hyundai-forums.com/threads/rear-passenger-door-wont-open.603329/ I scheduled an appointment for Monday, but it is again, a safety issue, and this will not be covered and most likely cost me out of pocket. Can you help?

ORIGINALLY SAID THEY WOULD REIMBURSE ME FOR RENTAL BUT WHEN THEY EMAILED ME LETTER FOR 'GOODWILL ' REIMBURSEMENT IT WAS A RELEASE FROM LIABILITY WAIVER IF I TOOK THEIR 'GOODWILL ' . I HAVE INFORMED THEM OF ELECTRIC ISSUES AND HOW I FEEL UNSAFE WITH NEW RECALL AND FIRE POSSIBILITY AND THEY INFORMED ME AS LONG AS NO WARNING LIGHT IS ON IT SHOULD NOT BE AN ISSUE. I TRIED TO TRADE VEHICLE IN AND NO ONE WOULD TAKE MY TRADE, IT'S 3 YEARS OLD AND WORTH NOTHING. HYUNDAI RESPONSE WAS VEHICLES DON'T HOLD THEIR VALUE LIKE THEY USED TO.

WHEN ON ANY HILL (REVERSING OR FORWARD), IN HEAVY BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC, AND IN SOME INTERMITTENT SITUATIONS, THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCES A LOSS OF POWER. THE SCARIEST PART OF THIS IS THAT THE CAR JOLTS QUICKLY ONCE IT FINALLY "FINDS A GEAR" AND DECIDES TO GO. WHEN MY CAR DIES BECAUSE IT CAN'T DEAL WITH SLOWER BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC, THERE'S A PROBLEM! WHEN I'M TRYING TO BACKUP ON A HILL AND THERE'S AN OBJECT BEHIND ME AND I NEARLY HIT IT BECAUSE I CAN'T GET THE CAR TO GO, IT'S A PROBLEM. IT'S A MANUFACTURERS PROBLEM THAT YOU AND THEY KEEP IGNORING! JUST LIKE THE FIRES THAT THEY IGNORED FOR YEARS. THE DEALERSHIPS REPORT TO HUNDREDS OF CUSTOMERS THAT THIS IS NORMAL. IT IS NOT NORMAL. FROM WHAT I HAVE FOUND IN MY RESEARCH, IT'S CAUSED BY A COUPLE OF THINGS. THE FUEL FILTER IS CONSTANTLY DIRTY FROM WHATEVER FUEL TANK COATING HYUNDAI USED ON THE INSIDE OF THE FUEL TANK THAT IS FLAKING OFF. THE SECOND REASON IS A PROBLEM WITH THE DCT. IT SHOULD BE ENGAGING THE 1ST GEAR AND IT'S NOT. IT SHOULD BE SOMETHING AS SIMPLE AS AN UPDATE WITH THE COMPUTER SYSTEMS BUT HYUNDAI DOESN'T CARE ABOUT KEEPING THEIR CUSTOMERS SAFE. IT'S RIDICULOUS THAT HUNDREDS AND THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT THESE ISSUES AND NOTHING IS DONE. NOT AN INVESTIGATION UNTIL THEY GET ENOUGH AND SOMEONE PAYS A LAWYER TO DO IT.BECAUSE THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME, I AM PUTTING THE ESTIMATED DATE OF PURCHASE LIKE OTHER CUSTOMERS HAVE DONE ON HERE.

ODI #11387569POWER TRAIN,ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

I HAVE DONE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT THE HYUNDAI TUCSON HAS THREE POTENTIAL PROBLEMS THAT CAUSE THE ISSUES WITH THE STALLING/LOW POWER ON TAKEOFF. I BELIEVE THAT PART OF IT MIGHT BE THE TRANSMISSION NOT ENGAGING PROPERLY IN 1ST GEAR AND THAT SHOULD BE SOMETHING THEY CAN FIX WITH A COMPUTER UPDATE. THE SECOND FROM WHAT I'VE READ IS THAT THE FUEL TANK HAS A MATERIAL FLAKING OFF ON THE INSIDE OF THE FUEL TANK CAUSING THE FUEL FILTER TO BE DAMAGED/CLOGGED. THE THIRD AND FROM WHAT I HAVE READ, THE REASON SOME OF THE TUCSONS FAIL IS A BAD CRANK SHAFT. MY GUESS IS THAT THE BAD CRANK SHAFT HAPPENS OVER TIME AND THAT THE PROBLEMS START WITH THE FUEL CLOGS. THE FUEL SYSTEM NEEDS TO BE EXAMINED TO ENSURE THAT THE "FLAKING OFF" MATERIAL DEFECT INSIDE THE TANK IS NOT THE CAUSE OF THE FUEL FILTER BEING CLOGGED AND EVENTUALLY THE CAR FAILS. THE LOSS OF POWER IS SCARY AND DANGEROUS AND MUST BE RESOLVED. WOULDN'T IT BE CHEAPER IF HYUNDAI REPLACED ALL THE FUEL TANKS ON THE CARS WITH ONE THAT DOESN'T HAVE A DEFECTIVE MATERIAL COATED ON THE INSIDE OF THEM RATHER THAN REPLACE MOTORS AND KEEP DOING WORK ON THEM OVER AND OVER AND OVER?

I NOTICED A KNOCKING NOISE AT CERTAIN THROTTLE PEDAL POSITIONS, I PULLED INTO A GAS STATION AND CHECKED THE OIL AND IT WAS BARELY TOUCHING THE DIP STICK SO I BOUGHT A QUART OF OIL AND THIS PUT THE LEVEL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ACCEPTABLE RANGE ON THE DIP STICK. I PROCEEDED TO GET SOMEWHERE CLOSER TO MY HOME. AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND STARTED BLINKING SO I GOT OFF ONTO THE EXIT AND AT THE TOP THE MOTOR MADE A HARD NOISE AND STOPPED AND ALL THE LIGHTS CAME ON THE DASH AND SMOKE CAME FROM UNDER THE CAR. THERE WAS OIL ON THE GROUND SO I ASSUME THE OIL PAN HAD A HOLE FROM A ROD FAILURE. I CHANGE MY OWN OIL EVERY 7500N MILES WHEN THE FACTORY SETTING TELLS ME IT'S TIME. I USE MOBIL 1 SYNTHETIC OIL AND A GOOD FILTER EVERY TIME. I HAD THE OIL CHANGED THE FIRST TIME AT HYUNDAI OF ONTARIO, CALIF AND THE SECOND TIME AT JIFFY LUBE IN REDLANDS, CA. THE PRICE FOR SYNTHETIC OIL CHANGE WAS RIDICULOUS WHEN I CAN DO IT FOR HALF MINIMUM. HYUNDAI HAS SAID SINCE I HAVE NO INVOICES FOR OIL CHANGES THEY WILL NOT COVER MOTOR FULLY? I KNOW THE COMPUTER CAN BE ACCESSED TO SEE THE DATES WHEN I RESET THE METER MILES. I KNOW SINCE DOING MY RESEARCH HYUNDAI HAS HAD THE VERY SAME PROBLEMS WITH PRIOR YEAR CARS. I BELIEVE THEY SHOULD PAY FOR THIS PROBLEM A CAR LIKE THIS SHOULD LAST WELL INTO 200 TO 300K MILES WHEN TAKEN CARE OF PROPERLY. I HAVE HAD A HONDA AND TOYOTA THAT DID HIGH MILEAGE WITH NO PROBLEMS. HYUNDAI STILL HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE 2.0 LITER MOTORS. THE WARRANTY NEEDS TO BE MADE LONGER TO 200K MILES IF THEY HAVE REALLY FIXED THE PROBLEM WITH THIS MOTOR.

THIS 2017 HYUNDAI IS EQUIPPED WITH A 7-SPEED, DUAL CLUTCH AUTO TRANSMISSION.. THE PROBLEM IS A SERIOUS HESITATION FROM 1ST GEAR TO 2ND GEAR. IN SOME INSTANCES THE POWERTRAIN MOMENTARILY SHUTS DOWN COMPLETELY. ALSO, THERE IS SEVERE CHATTERING WHEN MOVING FORWARD AFTER A COMPLETE STOP. I CAN'T TELL IF THE CHATTERING IS CAUSED BY THE GEARS JUMPING BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN 1ST AND 2ND OR IF THERE IS SLIPPAGE FROM ONE OF THE CLUTCH PACKS (THIS A TWIN CLUTCH PACK TRANSMISSION WITH OUT A TORQUE CONVERTER).THESE PROBLEMS BECOME PRONOUNCED AS TEMPERATURES RISE, SUCH AS HOT SUMMER DAYS. THE CONDITION OF THIS TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN REVIEWED BY MY DEALERS SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND I HAVE A COPY OF THE WORK ORDER. I NOW DRIVE MY HYUNDAI BY STARTING IN STICK SHIFT MODE, THAN SHIFTING TO AUTOMATIC AFTER 3RD GEAR. WHEN I VISITED THE DEALERS SERVICE DEPARTMENT I WAS TOLD : "CUSTOMER COMPLAINT COULDN'T BE DUPLICATED".

WHEN DRIVING IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, SPECIFICALLY ON AN INCLINE, THE TRANSMISSION OVERHEATS AND A BURNING/MELTING RUBBER SMELL IS EMITTED FROM THE ENGINE. WHEN CLIMBING A LONG HILL IN SLOW MOVING TRAFFIC, THE CAR DISPLAYS A WARNING MESSAGE SAYING THAT ONE SHOULD STEP ON THE BREAK WHILE ON THE STEEP INCLINE. SO INSTEAD OF MOVING UP THE HILL AT A LOW STEADY SPEED USING THE ACCELERATOR, I MUST APPLY THE BREAK AND STOP THE CAR ON THE HILL, WAIT FOR A GAP, ACCELERATE TO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME, AND THEN STOP AGAIN. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP, THE CAR LURCHES AND SHAKES WHILE MAKING LOUD CLANKING SOUNDS (SIMILAR TO THE SOUND YOU MIGHT HEAR BEFORE YOUR CAR STALLS OUT IF YOU'RE NOT VERY GOOD AT DRIVING A STICK SHIFT). AFTER ABOUT 20-30 MINS IN TRAFFIC ON THE INCLINE, ONE CAN SMELL AN THE BURNING ODOR AND TWO OUT OF THREE TIMES ANOTHER WARNING MESSAGE CAME ON THE DISPLAY THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS OVERHEATING AND THAT I SHOULD PULL OVER IMMEDIATELY. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO PARK ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY AND I HAVE HAD TO DO THREE TIMES IN THE LAST FOUR WEEKS. BESIDES THE TRANSMISSION OVERHEATING AND LURCHING ON INCLINES, THE VEHICLE ALSO HAS ACCELERATION ISSUES ON FLAT GROUND. FOR EXAMPLE, AFTER BEING STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT I APPLY PRESSURE TO THE GAS BUT THE CAR BARELY MOVES, THE RPMS BEGIN TO INCREASE AS I APPLY MORE PRESSURE TO GET IT MOVING, AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IN CLICKS AND JERKS IN TO GEAR SPEEDING AWAY. THIS PROBLEM HAS LEFT ME IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTING WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC, LUCKILY NO ONE HAS BEEN INJURED YET. THE DELAYED ACCELERATION ALSO OCCURS AS I DRIVE UP MY PARKING GARAGE, AS THE CAR SLOWLY MOVES ALONG THE ACCELERATOR HAS NO AFFECT UNTIL SUDDENLY THE CAR QUICKLY ACCELERATES TO AN UNSAFE SPEED IN THE TIGHT PARKING STRUCTURE, AGAIN LUCKILY NO PEDESTRIANS HAVE BEEN INJURED YET DUE TO THE MALFUNCTIONING VEHICLE.

BECAUSE THE TRANSMISSIONS USE COMPUTERS, THE ISSUE IS THAT THERE IS NOT A CODE YET CREATED TO SOLVE THIS ISSUE. IT IS ALSO NOT POSSIBLE TO SWITCH THE TRANSMISSION OUT FOR ONE THAT DOES NOT LURCH FROM OTHER MODELS AS IT WILL NOT FIT INTO THE CARS CORRECTLY. BECAUSE OF THIS DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSION THAT THREATENS DRIVER'S SAFETY, IT COULD BE VIEWED AS VIOLATING PRODUCT LIABILITY LAWS.

DTC PROBLEM. WHEN STOPPED AND I STEP ON THE GAS TO MOVE, MY CAR 'STUTTERS' AND SEEMS LIKE THE CAR WILL STALL. IF I PUT MY FOOT ON THE GAS IT WILL LEAP FORWARD. IN STOP-AND-GO TRAFFIC, MY CAR STUTTERS ALONG AND THIS HAS BECOME QUITE DANGEROUS WHEN THE TRAFFIC IS VERY BAD. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR IN JANUARY 2018 BUT HAD PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE.

I HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION SINCE I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE AND EVERY 3 MONTHS THEY 'ADJUST' IT TO FIT MY DRIVING HABITS. IT'S A DANGEROUS VEHICLE AND DOES NOT ACCELERATE WHEN IT SHOULD. I CAN NEVER TRUST IT TO PULL INTO TRAFFIC BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S GOING TO MOVE. IT HAS SLIPPED INTO WHAT I WOULD CALL NEUTRAL AND HAD NO POWER AT ALL, JUST ROLLED INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH NHTSA SHORTLY AFTER I PURCHASED IT BUT DO NOT SEE THE ORIGINAL COMPLAINT FILED. THIS IS A DANGEROUS VEHICLE AND NOT TRUSTWORTHY. I PURCHASED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY, IF NOT, I'M SURE I WOULD HAVE ADDITIONAL COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS VEHICLE. I WANT TO GET RID OF IT BUT KNOW IT'S NOT WORTH NEAR WHAT I PAID FOR IT BECAUSE IF THIS TRANSMISSION. HESITATION HAPPENS ALL THE TIME.

MULTIPLE INSTANCES (39+ AND COUNTING SINCE I BOUGHT IT NEW IN JAN '18) OF LAG IN ACCELERATION WHEN AT A LOW SPEED (OCCASIONALLY AFTER BEING STOPPED) & THEN NEEDING TO SPEED UP. MANY TIMES I WAS WAITING TO TURN LEFT ACROSS AN INTERSECTION IN FRONT OF ON-COMING TRAFFIC WHERE YOU TYPICALLY INCH FORWARD & THEN NEED TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY TO MAKE IT ACROSS BEFORE THE NEXT CAR COMES OR WHEN THE LIGHT TURNS YELLOW & THEN RED. SOMETIMES IT WAS INCHING UP BEHIND ANOTHER CAR WAITING TO MERGE W/TRAFFIC, OR IN STOP-GO TRAFFIC & THEN NOT HAVING ACCELERATION WHEN NEEDED. IN ALL SITUATIONS ACCELERATION WAS NEEDED & DESPITE PRESSING DOWN ON THE ACCELERATION PEDAL (SOMETIMES TO THE FLOOR), NOTHING HAPPENS FOR ANYTHING FROM A HALF SECOND TO AT LEAST A COUPLE OF SECONDS. THE LAG WHEN TURNING LEFT IS VERY DANGEROUS - POTENTIALLY EVEN FATAL - DUE TO NEEDING ACCELERATION & SPEED TO AVOID BEING HIT BY OTHER CARS. BEING HIT FROM BEHIND BY ANOTHER CAR IS A POTENTIAL DANGER WHEN TRYING TO SPEED UP & HAVING A SECOND OR MORE DELAY BEFORE THE ENGINE KICKS IN - THE DRIVER BEHIND MUST BE PAYING VERY CLOSE ATTENTION IN CASE MY CAR DOESN'T MOVE WHEN EXPECTED. IN THIS CASE IT'D OBVIOUSLY BE THE OTHER DRIVER'S FAULT, BUT THAT'S NO COMFORT SHOULD I SUSTAIN INJURIES FROM A COLLISION DUE TO A KNOWN FAULTY DCT COMPONENT/SOFTWARE. SAME FOR THE TIMES I PRESSED THE PEDAL AND NOTHING HAPPENS, SO I PRESS IT TO THE FLOOR AND SUDDENLY IT ENGAGES A SECOND OR TWO LATE - THAT LURCH IS UNEXPECTED & DANGEROUS IN ITSELF. I CAN'T SEE ANY PATTERN TO IT AS FAR AS CAR TEMP, AIR TEMP, TIME DRIVING, AMOUNT OF GAS IN THE TANK, ETC. THE TIMES I'VE SPOKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP/SERVICE PEOPLE THEY ALWAYS SAY IT'S THE NATURE OF THE DCT & THAT IT'S NORMAL. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR 2016 TUCSONS FOR THE VERY SAME THING & A SOFTWARE UPDATE HELPED, BUT NOTHING HAS HELPED MINE SO FAR. IT'S UP TO DATE W/SERVICE & SOFTWARE UPDATES.

WE BOUGHT A HYUNDAI TUCSON SUV FROM HYUNDAI OF ORANGE PARK JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA 32244 BACK ON NOVEMBER 2, 2017. THE PROBLEM WITH THIS SUV IS THAT IT HAS A JERKING AND HESITATION PROBLEM WHEN YOU START OUT FROM 5 MILES AN HOUR UNTIL IT GETS UP TO SPEED. IT IS WORSE IN DAMP WEATHER AND WHEN IT RAINS OUT, ALSO WHEN YOU ARE IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. I HAVE HAD THE SUV BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP 5 TIMES AND THEY DOCUMENTED IT 3 TIMES BY STATING THERE IS NO PROBLEMS WITH THE SUV AND IT'S THE TRANSMISSION THAT WAS PUT INTO THE SUV'S. I HAVE ALSO CALLED HYUNDAI DIRECT IN CALIFORNIA, AND THEY SAY IT'S THE DUEL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION THAT WAS PUT INTO THOSE SUV'S. THEY OFFERED ME A CAR PAYMENT OF $351.00 TO NOT FURTHER THE COMPLAINT, WHICH I DECLINED. MY WIFE DRIVES THE SUV AND IS AFRAID THAT SHE WILL GET INTO AN ACCIDENT ONE OF THESES DAYS WHEN MAKING A TURN. IT STARTED WITH THIS PROBLEM IN MAY OF 2018 AND HAS CONTINUED EVER SINCE. THE DEALERSHIP TELLS ME THE ONLY WAY TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM IS TO TRADE IN AND BUY ANOTHER SUV OR CAR THAT IS NEWER 2019, AS HYUNDAI DIDN'T PUT THE SAME TRANSMISSION IN THE 2019'S.

THERE HAVE BEEN COUNTLESS TIMES, THAT OUR 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON HAS HAD TROUBLE ACCELERATING IN LOW GEAR, WHETHER COMING TO A STOP AT A STOP SIGN OR RED LIGHT AND THEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE OR WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE FROM A SLOW SPEED (5-10MPH). MOST OFTEN TIMES, WHEN PRESSING THE GAS PEDDLE TO ACCELERATE IT IS VERY DELAYED, ALMOST NO ACCELERATION RESPONSE FOR ABOUT 5 SECONDS, AND THEN IT IS VERY JERKY GETTING INTO GEAR AT THAT POINT. I FINALLY HAD ENOUGH OF THIS WHEN MY WIFE AND I CAME EXTREMELY CLOSE TO GETTING REAR ENDED (THE VEHICLE BEHIND US CAME SCREECHING TO A HALT) AS THERE WAS NO ACCELERATION RESPONSE WHEN I PULLED ONTO A 50MPH ROAD AFTER STOPPING AT A STOP SIGN.

THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT KEPT SAYING THAT THERE ARE SOME KNOWN PROBLEMS WITH ACCELERATION THAT HYUNDAI HASN'T COMMUNICATED A SOLUTION TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT, THEREFORE THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. OFTEN TIMES THE RPM LEVEL SKYROCKETS LEAVING THE CAR WITHOUT THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. OUR 7-SPEED DCT IS HAVING SHIFTING PROBLEMS, HESITATION WITH ACCELERATION, AND NEAR LOSS OF POWER. THE TRANSMISSION PARTICULARLY MISBEHAVES DURING WARMER TEMPERATURES AND CERTAIN DRIVING CONDITIONS. THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS OCCUR WITHOUT WARNING, WHICH IS A SAFETY HAZARD. AND IS A DANGER TO EVERYONE ON THE ROAD. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT CLAIMS THAT HYUNDAI HAS KNOWN ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION AND CONTROL MODULE PROBLEMS BUT IS NOT ABLE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. WE WOULD HAVE NEVER PURCHASED THE VEHICLES IF WE WOULD HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THE ALLEGED TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. WE HAVE BEEN IN THE MIDDLE OF LEFT TURNS ON LARGE CITY STREETS, ALMOST GETTING HIT, BECAUSE NOBODY WAS ANTICIPATING THE SUDDEN NON RESPONSE OF THE GAS PEDAL.

TRAFFIC WAS CLEAR AND ATTEMPTED TO TURN LEFT. WHILE DOING SO, THE VEHICLE ABRUPTLY STALLED AND I COULD NOT ACCELERATE TO MY LANE, CAUSING BRIEF PANIC SINCE I WAS IN THE VEHICLE WITH MY BABY AND A FREIGHTLINER WAS NOW APPROACHING. THE VEHICLE RESPONDED IN THE SAME MANNER WHILE MY HUSBAND DROVE IT SEVERAL DAYS LATER. ADDITIONALLY, THERE WAS A HORRENDOUS SMELL COMING FROM THE VEHICLE AS WE TRAVELED IN TRAFFIC AT ABOUT 3MPH OR LESS. MY HUSBAND AND I WERE ON EDGE AND JUST WANTED TO GET HOME SAFELY WITHOUT ANY FURTHER ISSUES WITH THE TUCSON. WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM HYUNDAI OF LONGVIEW ON NOVEMBER 29, 2017.

VEHICLE HESITATES FROM A STOP WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE. ENGINE JUST REVS AND THEN LURCHES FORWARD WHEN TRANSMISSION FINAL ENGAGES. THIS CAN TAKE SEVERAL SECONDS. HYUNDAI STATES THAT THIS AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHOULD BE DRIVEN LIKE AN MANUAL TRANSMISSION. THIS IS AN IGNORANT EXCUSE TO HIDE A PROBLEM THAT THEY ARE WELL AWARE OF. THIS IS HAPPENING TO SO MANY PEOPLE SO WHY WILL THE NHTSA NOT HOLD HYUNDAI ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS DEFECT IN THE DRIVETRAIN? I SPECIFICALLY ASKED OUR SALESPERSON IF THE ISSUE HAD BEEN WORKED OUT BEFORE WE SIGNED AND HE STATED THAT THE VEHICLES NO LONGER HAD THE PROBLEM. IF HYUNDAI DENIES THERE IS A PROBLEM WHEY DID THE SALESPERSON ACKNOWLEDGE THIS TO ME? THE ISSUE HAS HAPPENED OVER 20 TIMES TO MY WIFE AND I IN THE PAST YEAR AND THE VEHICLE HAS 10,500 MILES ON IT. HYUNDAI STATES THEY IT IS PERFORMING AS DESIGNED AND CLOSED MY CASE. THEY DIDN'T EVEN OFFER TO HAVE ME TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE. THIS IS BECAUSE THEY KNOW THERE ISN'T A FIX AND IS A POTENTIALLY FATAL FLAW. WE HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT NUMEROUS TIMES BECAUSE OF NON RESPONSIVENESS FROM THE TRANSMISSION. PLEASE HOLD HYUNDAI ACCOUNTABLE FOR REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION. IF A DIFFERENT TRANSMISSION WILL NOT WORK WITH THE CURRENT ENGINE THEN THEY SHOULD BUY THE VEHICLE BACK OR TRADE WITHOUT A LOSS. THE DATE FIELD BELOW ONLY ALLOWS FOR ONE DATE? THIS HAS HAPPENED OVER 20 TIMES AS MENTIONED ABOVE.

VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS 25,XXX MILES ON IT. IT HAS THE 1.6L TURBO ENGINE WITH DCT (DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION). IT IS VERY UNPREDICTABLE IN REGARD TO MAKING A SMOOTH START FROM STANDSTILL. THE IS CONSIDERABLE LAG AND JERKING BEFORE THE VEHICLE WILL RESPOND WITH FORWARD MOTION. SOMETIMES, JUST RELEASING THE BRAKE AT A STOP, THE VEHICLE WILL BUCK AND JERK WITHOUT EVEN TOUCHING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL.THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AS IT IS UNPREDICTABLE ON THE SEVERITY AND WHEN IT WILL OCCUR. TAKING THE CAR TO THE DEALER WAS NOT OF ANY HELP. THEY PERFORMED SCANS AND SAID EVERYTHING WAS "NORMAL". THEY GAVE ME A PAPER DESCRIPTION ON HOW THE DCT OPERATES BUT THAT DOES NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THEY BASICALLY SAID THAT'S THE WAY IT IS, JUST GET USED TO IT. PERFORMING A GOGGLE SEARCH YIELDS MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS. HYUNDAI HAS NOT OWNED UP TO THIS PROBLEM AS FAR AS I CAN TELL. PERHAPS IF ENOUGH OWNERS REPORT THIS COMMON PROBLEM, HYUNDAI WILL BE FORCED TO PERFORM A RECALL WITH A SOLUTION TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEM.

I HAVE OWNED MY 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON SINCE 10/20/17. IN THE LAST YEAR I HAVE HAD IT AT THE DEALERSHIP 3X FOR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. TWICE MY VEHICLE HAD PERFORMANCE ISSUES WHILE ENTERING THE HIGHWAY AND ACCELERATION. IT IS LIFE ENDANGERING. WHEN ACCELERATING ONTO THE HIGHWAY, THE ENGINE LOSES SPEED. THE RPM GAUGE STARTS GOING WACKY, OFF THE CHARTS. IT WILL REV TO 5 RPM BACK DOWN TO 3 RPM AND BACK & FORTH. WHEN THE FOOT IS ON THE GAS PEDDLE TRYING TO INCREASE TO HIGHWAY SPEED, THE ENGINE WILL GO TO 45 MPH. WHEN ONE A HIGHWAY WHERE THE SPEED LIMIT IS 70 MPH, IT BECOMES LIFE THREATENING. WHEN I FINALLY REACHED A SPEED OF 70, IT WOULD GO FOR A SHORT TIME AND THEN DECREASE TO 50 MPH. VERY SCARY. TWICE IT WAS IN SERVICE FOR THE SAME PERFORMANCE ISSUE . THE 2ND TIME THEY REPLACED BOOST SENSOR RANGE. IT WORKS OK NOW. HOWEVER, THE SHIFTING OF THE TRANSMISSION IS HARD AND SEEMS TO SHIFT IMPROPERLY. IT TOO IS TIED TO THE ACCELERATION. HYUNDAI THAT IS THE NATURAL PERFORMANCE ON THE ENGINE & TRANSMISSION. THE LAST CHECK ENGINE WAS AN ALTERNATOR FAILURE. I HAVE OWNED 3 HYUNDAI'S. I HAVE HELPED MY DAUGHTER BUY HER 2 HYUNDAI'S. MY MOTHER AS WELL. I HAVE NEVER SEEN THESE KIND OF ISSUES. ALSO THE NATURAL HYDRAULIC CLOSING ON THE BACK DOOR IS A REAL SAFETY HAZARD. ONE DAY THE DOOR STARTED CLOSING WHILE MY BODY WAS HALF INSIDE. THERE SHOULD BE A SENSOR TO DETECT WHEN THERE IS AN OBJECT IN THE WAY. THAT TOO IS CAUSED FOR ALARM IN SAFETY. THESE 2 ISSUES THAT I HAVE WRITTEN ABOUT CAN & WILL CAUSE DEATH.

AFTER GETTING HYUNDAI NORTH AMERICA INVOLVED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TOOK IT IN AGAIN. THIS TIME WE WERE ABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE. THE REAR CAMERA WAS REPLACED BUT THIS DID NOT RESOLVE THE CONCERN. UPON RETURN TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT INCLUDING AN OPEN TICKET WITH HYUNDAI'S TECHNICAL SERVICE LINE, THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT THOUGHT THEY HAD REPLICATED THE ISSUE BUT ONLY SAW THE INITIALIZATION BLACK OUT AT WHICH POINT THEY CLAIMED THIS IS AS "WORKS AS DESIGNED". THIS WAS NOT THE ISSUE, THE ISSUE IS ONCE THE SYSTEM HAS LOADED AND THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION IT BLACKS OUT CAUSING A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN BACKING OUT ONTO STREETS AND IN BUSY PARKING LOTS.

THIS CREATES AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD WHEN YOU HAVE THE VEHICLE IN AN INTERSECTION AND ACCELERATE TO MAKE A LEFT TURN IN A GAP IN TRAFFIC AND END STUCK IN THE INTERSECTION OR IN FRONT OF AN ONCOMING VEHICLE BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS ONLY ROLLING AND NOT ACCELERATING. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN REPORTED TO HYUNDAI USA CORPORATE WHO HAS CHOSEN NOT OFFER ANY REMEDY AND HAS IT STATED TO ME THIS IS A "CHARACTERISTIC OF MY VEHICLE.". HYUNDAI USA HAS CONTINUALLY REFERRED ME BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP, WHO DOES NOT HAVE A FIX FOR THIS ISSUE. HYUNDAI USA HAS EVEN PLACE THE BLAME FOR THIS ISSUE ON THE DEALERSHIP.

SINCE YOU ARE DRIVING AT 55 TO 75 MPH AND ALL THE LIGHTS GO OFF LEAVING YOU MOVING HIGH SPEED IN THE DARK HYUNDAI IS ENDANGERING MY LIFE AND THE LIVES OF THE PASSENGERS INTENTIONALL BECAUSE OF THE POOR INCOMPETANT DESIGN. THEY SHOULD RE DESIGN THE SWITCH ARM AND REMOVE THE LIGHT SWITCH FROM THE END OF THE TURN SIGNAL ARM. I HAVE TO TAKE NITRO GLYCERINE BECAUSE I'M SCARED TO DEATH.

THE DEALERSHIP (KEARNY MESA HYUNDAI, SAN DIEGO) TELLS US THAT "THEY ALL DO THAT" WHEN WE TOOK IT IN FOR SAFETY CONCERNS AND REPAIR. ANY SUBSEQUENT REQUESTS FOR REPAIR WERE MET WITH "IT WILL COST YOU 150 DOLLARS TO CHECK IT OUT IF IT'S THE SAME SITUATION AS BEFORE WITH NO SOLUTION".

IT ALSO TENDS TO GO INTO SOME SORT OF LEAF BLOWER MODE SOMETIMES WHEN YOU HIT THE BRAKES, WHERE THE REVS SOAR BUT IT DOESN'T ACT LIKE IT DOWNSHIFTED. THIS IS NOT A MIXUP IN BRAKE/GAS PEDAL USAGE, LIKE THE UNINTENDED ACCELERATION PROBLEMS WEVE ALL READ ABOUT WITH OTHER BRANDS. THE DCT HAS A MIND OF IT'S OWN AND IS A HAZARD ON THE ROAD.

THREE MONTHS AGO I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND I TOLD THEM OF THIS PROBLEM AND THEY SAID THEY WILL CHECK IT. WHEN I PICKED UP THE CAR I WAS TOLD THAT A RESET WAS DONE TO THE COMPUTER TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE. IT IS STILL HAPPENING. I HAVE BEEN IN CLOSE CALLS NUMEROUS TIMES AND I DON'T FEEL SAFE FOR MYSELF OR OTHERS ON THE ROAD BECAUSE OF THIS CONDITION. I WILL BE TAKING THE SUV TO DEALER AGAIN THIS WEEKEND TO HAVE THEM CHECK IT AGAIN. I HOPE THAT A RECALL HAPPENS BEFORE SOMEONE HAS A FATAL ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. SUV HAS 19500 MILES.

THE VISIBILITY AT NIGHT IS IMPAIRED DUE TO THE HID HEADLIGHTS. IN RESEARCHING THE ISSUE, I SEE WHERE THERE ARE SEVERAL OTHER COMPLAINTS ON THE SAME THING. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION TO BE DRIVING AT NIGHT WITH LIMITED VISIBILITY. ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHTS DO NOT SEEM TO BE AN IMPROVEMENT. THE OTHER NIGHT, MY LIGHTS WENT COMPLETELY DARK WHILE DRIVING. THIS DEFINITELY DESERVES A NOTIFICATION/RECALL TO THE OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES BEFORE THERE IS A DEADLY ACCIDENT. PLEASE DO THE RESPONSIBLE THING IN ORDER TO PREVENT IMPAIRING OR LOSING A LIFE.

WHILE VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN, IN MOTION ON A STREET AND NEEDING TO ACCELERATE, ESPECIALLY WHEN MAKING A TURN, OFTEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WILL SEEM TO STALL OR FALTER WHEN BEING DEPRESSED, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO SLOW, THEN THE PEDAL CONTINUES DOWNWARD AND THE VEHICLE LURCHES FORWARD. HYUNDAI SERVICE ADVISOR ON JULY 6, 2018 POLITELY SAID "ALL TUCSON TURBO MODELS DO THIS, NO PROBLEM". TO ME THIS IS SCARY. DOES NHTSA THINK LIKEWISE AND COULD THERE BE A SAFETY ISSUE?

MY 2017 HYUNDAI TUSCON LIMITED HAS A DUAL-CLUTH, 7-SPEED TRANSMISSION THAT IS UNSAFE AND UNPREDICTABLE. ON COUNTESS OCCASIONS THE VEHICLE HAS: 1)STALLED COMPLETELY FOR UP TO 5-6 SECONDS AFTER ACCELERATING FROM A STOP LEAVING ME EXPOSED IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION AND/OR ROAD WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC ALMOST CAUSING SEVERAL SERIOUS ACCIDENTS, 2) RANDOMLY DROPPED OUT OF GEAR AT SLOW, ROLLING SPEEDS WITH THE ACCELERATOR IS PRESSED, CAUSING THE ENGINE TO REV AND THEN SUDDENLY JUMP INTO GEAR ALMOST CAUSING SEVERAL COLLISIONS, 3) DROPPED OUT OF GEAR GOING UP AN INCLINE, 4) STALLING WHEN PRESSING ON THE ACCELERATOR AT ROLLING SPEEDS ALMOST CAUSING MULTIPLE COLLISIONS. ALL OF THESE ISSUES HAPPEN VERY RANDOMLY, WITH OUT ANY WARNING, AND IN SLOWER, STOP AND GO TRAFFIC AND/OR WHEN ENTERING INTERSECTIONS. THIS IS OUR ONLY VEHICLE WE USE BETWEEN MY WIFE AND I, AND WE NO LONGER FEEL SAFE. WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FIX IT. THE SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE EVEN STATED THAT THEY DO NOT KNOW OF ANY DEFINITE FIX FOR THIS DEFECT AND SAFETY ISSUE. HYUNDAI NOW WANTS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION WITH ANOTHER DUAL-CLUTCH, 7-SPEED TRANSMISSION, WHICH IS NOT AN ACCEPTABLE RESOLUTION, AS THIS TRANSMISSION IS FLAWED AND UNSAFE. THEY REFUSE TO BUY THE CAR BACK. ADDITIONALLY, ARAPAHOE HYUNDAI IN COLORADO FAILED TO DISCLOSE THIS KNOWN TRANSMISSION ISSUE PRIOR TO ME PURCHASING THE VEHICLE. HAD I KNOW THIS, I WOULD HAVE NEVER PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE. IT IS ALSO NOTEWORTHY THAT HYUNDAI IS NO LONGER INSTALLING THE 7-SPEED, DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION IN THE NEW HYUNDAI TUSCON'S, A CLEAR TESTAMENT THAT THEY KNOW IT IS FLAWED AND DANGEROUS. THEY ARE BEING SUED: WYLIE V. HYUNDAI, CASE NO. 8:16-CV-02102 THE NHTSA SHOULD FORCE HYUNDAI TO BUY ALL THESE CARS BACK. IT IS A TOTALLY UNSAFE VEHICLE. WHY HASN'T HYUNDAI RECALLED THIS FOR ALL YEARS!!??

I HAVE NOTICED OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AS I AM. I THINK HYUNDAI SHOULD LOOK INTO THIS MATTER AND RECALL THESE VEHICLES WITH A FIX. WE HAVE PAID ENOUGH MONEY FOR THE BRAND NEW CAR AND TO HAVE THIS ON GOING PROBLEM IS FRUSTRATING. NOT GOOD BUSINESS FOR HYUNDAI BECAUSE I'LL THINK TWICE BEFORE I BUY ANOTHER CAR FROM THEM.

MY HYUNDAI TUCSON HESITATES WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE. IT FEELS AS THOUGH SOMEONE IS HOLDING DOWN THE BRAKE AS I AM TRYING TO HIT THE GAS PEDAL. IT IS VERY SCARY BECAUSE ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR WILL GET THIS BURST OF ENERGY AND ACCELERATE FORWARD. THIS HAS OCCURRED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS WHILE TRYING TO TAKE A TURN AT AN INTERSECTION OR PULLING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. IT IS VERY FRUSTRATING THAT SO MANY PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE AND HYUNDAI DOES NOT HAVE A RECALL. I HAVE SPOKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT THIS WHEN BRINGING MY CAR IN FOR REGULAR MAINTENANCE VISITS AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THEY WILL LOOK INTO IT. I HAVE HAD ZERO LUCK WITH ISSUE BEING RESOLVED.

MY TRUCK IS UNPREDICTABLE. SOMETIMES THERE IS A BIG DELAY WHEN YOU PRESS ON THE GAS. ALSO, IT EXCELLERATES WHEN YOU LEAST EXPECT IT FOR INSTANCE, TURNING INTO A PARKING SPACE, ALL OF A SUDDEN IT LEARCHES FORWARD FAST. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN CARS ARE STOPPED BEHIND YOU AT A LIGHT. YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT DOES IT. SOMETIMES ON A COLD START, SOMETIMES NOT. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND I WAS TOLD IT'S BECAUSE IT HAS A DOUBLE CLUTCH. IF THAT'S THE REASON, WHY DIDN'T IT DO IT WHEN I FIRST GOT IT. IT STARTED AROUND 1900 MILES. AT FIRST, I THOUGHT IT WAS BECAUSE OF SNOW AND SLIPPERY ROADS, NOT SO. IT'S SCARY BUT WHAT'S EVEN SCARIER, I WILL BE PAYING FOR IT FOR THE NEXT 5 YEARS SO I CAN'T GET RID OF IT UNLESS I GET KILLED IN IT. IT ONLY HAS 2400 MILES ON IT.

IT IS SCARY, I NEVER KNOW WHEN THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN, ESPECIALLY WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR AND FOR A POSSIBLE INCIDENT WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC.

SOME TIMES CAR WILL NOT MOVE THOUGH GAS PEDAL IS PUSHED FROM VERY LOW SPEED TO ACCELERATE. HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES TO ME AND JUST BOUGHT CAR IN FEB 2018. I HAVE EVEN FLOORED THE PEDAL WHICH I HAVE NEVER HAD TO DO IN ANY OTHER CAR I'VE OWNED SINCE I'VE HAD A LICENSE TO GET IT TO MOVE. I MADE A 3 PT TURN YESTERDAY AND GETTING READY TO COME OUT OF IT DIDN'T WANT TO MOVE RIGHT AWAY AND A CAR WAS APPROACHING ME FROM BEHIND ON A SIDE STREET LEAVING A FESTIVAL. I'VE ALSO MADE U-TURNS AND GETTING READY TO MOVE INTO TRAFFIC IT HESITATES WHICH IS DANGEROUS. IT STOPS INSTEAD OF GOING EVEN THOUGH GAS PEDAL IS DEPRESSED. I DON'T TRUST CAR TO MOVE PROPERLY FROM SLOW SPEED TO ACCELERATION. I'VE REPORTED IT TO HYUNDAI AND CALLED LOCAL DEALER AND THEY SAID DOUBLE CLUTCH BUT IT NEEDS TO BE FIXED OR A RECALL ON IT. I HAVE READ MANY OF THE SAME TYPE OF COMPLAINTS. DOESN'T HAPPEN ALL THE TIME BUT ENOUGH TIMES. IT CAN BE VERY SLUGGISH AND I BOUGHT CAR WITH UNDER 10,000 MILES ON IT JUST RECENTLY. FOR A TURBO IT SEEMS STRANGE WAY IT REACTS. THIS IS MY 2ND HYUNDAI. MY 2012 HYUNDAI TUCSON WAS FINE. NEVER THOUGHT I'D HAVE THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM FOR MY 2012 PERFORMS WELL AND IS SPUNKY. NOT SURE WHAT TO DO. I PLAN TO CALL DEALER TO TAKE IT IN SOON TO SEE IF THEY CAN DO SOMETHING. I THOUGHT HYUNDAI WAS SAFE CARS TOO IS WHY I WAS GOING FOR ANOTHER ONE. TO KEEP THEIR REPUTATION THEY NEED TO DO SOMETHING AND NOT KEEP SELLING THESE CARS WITH KNOWN PROBLEM. I AM AN EXPERIENCED DRIVER BUT NEW DRIVERS MAY TAKE CHANCES MOVING INTO TRAFFIC WITH THIS KNOWN PROBLEM. I SOME TIMES MAKE SURE I HAVE PLENTY OF SPACE BEFORE MERGING INTO TRAFFIC IF POSSIBLE. I HOPE IT DOESN'T TAKE A FATALITY FOR THEM TO SERIOUSLY LOOK INTO THIS PROBLEM.

WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOPPED POSITION, THE VEHICLE WOULD GO INTO FIRST GEAR AND ACCELERATE FOR A FEW SECONDS, THEN WOULD TRY TO MOVE UP TO A HIGHER GEAR AND GET SUSPENDED FOR ABOUT 5-7 SECONDS AS IF IT COULD NOT FIND THE NEXT GEAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED 2-3 TIMES SO FAR. ALSO, WHEN I HAVE TESTED THE RESPONSE OF ACCELERATING BY PRESSING THE GAS WHILE TRAVELING AT A LOW SPEED, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT RESPOND AS EXPECTED. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, I PUSHED THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND THE ENGINE ONLY RESPONDED AS IF I WAS SLIGHTLY ACCELERATING. I HAVE A 1.6 TURBO. ADDITIONALLY, I HAVE HAD THE LIGHTS ON MY DASHBOARD GO OUT - EXCEPT FOR MY RADIO/NAVIGATION SYSTEM. I SUSPECT THIS HAD TO DO WITH A SENSOR AS IT WAS DUSK AND MY LIGHTS TRIPPED SOME ELECTRICAL OR SOFTWARE DEFECT. I WAS GOING DOWN A MAJOR HIGHWAY AROUND WASHINGTON D.C. AT THE TIME AND COULD NOT SEE ANY OF THE DRIVING CONTROLS FOR APPROX 20 SECONDS. I AM NOT SURE IF MY HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT AT THAT TIME BUT EVENTUALLY, AFTER FLIPPING MY LIGHTS OFF AND ON AND PRESSING THE DASH LIGHT TO MAXIMUM, THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD RETURNED. LAST WEEK, THE AUDIO OF MY RADIO/NAVIGATION SYSTEM WOULD NOT WORK. AFTER LEAVING MY CAR AND LOCKING IT FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES AND RETURNING, THE SOUND WAS WORKING AGAIN. I TOOK A VIDEO OF THIS. THE TEMPERATURE IN MY VEHICLE WAS NOT REGULATING PROPERLY WHILE STATIONARY. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THERE WAS A BAD SENSOR AND REPLACED IT. IT HAS WORKED GREAT SINCE THEN. HOWEVER, I AM STILL HAVING MAJOR PROBLEMS ACCELERATING FROM A STOPPED POSITION FROM A RED LIGHT OR TURNING INTO A ROAD, OR ACCELERATING FROM A VERY SLOW SPEED. MY VEHICLE IS NOW IN A SECOND DEALERSHIP TRYING TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE THAT STILL LINGERS. THIS IS CAUSING ME TO FEEL VERY INSECURE ABOUT DRIVING MY VEHICLE. I AM SECOND OWNER. FIRST OWNER HAD ONLY PUT 2500 MILES ON IT AND TRADED IT IN. PROBABLY A BAD SIGN.

THE VEHICLE HAS DONE THIS ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHERE I WAS UNABLE TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I HAVE ALSO BEEN VERY CLOSE TO BEING REAR-ENDED AND/OR T-BONED DUE TO THESE ACCELERATION ISSUES. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION THAT IS HAZARDOUS TO NOT ONLY THE OWNER'S OF THESE VEHICLES, BUT ALSO TO OTHER INNOCENT DRIVERS IN THEIR PATH. APPARENTLY HYUNDAI AND KIA VEHICLES ARE KNOWN TO HAVE THIS ISSUE AND HAVE BEEN MENTIONED IN RECENT ONLINE FORUMS.

I AM EXTREMELY CAREFUL AND COGNIZANT OF THESE ISSUES WHEN I AM DRIVING ALWAYS TAKING EXTRA PRECAUTIONS HOWEVER, IN THIS INSTANCE THAT SLIGHT HESITATION IN ACCELERATION WAS ENOUGH TO PRODUCE SEVERE DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE , SUBSTANTIAL MONETARY LOSS AND INJURY.

WE PURCHASED THIS CAR IN OCTOBER 2017. WE BROUGHT THE CAR IN THREE TIMES IN THE FIRST FOUR MONTHS AS THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHEN MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN. IT WOULD SHUTTER AND FEEL LIKE IT WAS GOING TO STALL LEAVING ME IN ONCOMING TRAFFIC FROM THE OPPOSITE LANE. IT WOULD ALSO HAPPEN WHEN BACKING OUT OF PARKING SPOT. THE CAR WOULD SUDDENLY JOLT FORWARD WHEN THE GAS PEDAL WAS PRESSED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO RECREATE THE PROBLEM AS IT COMES AND GOES ALL THE TIME AND HAPPENS WITHOUT WARNING. THE CAR FUNCTIONS HORRIBLY IN TRAFFIC HESITATING AND THEN JOLTING FORWARD BEING A SAFETY HAZARD WHEN ROLLING. LAST WEEK MY CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR. I HAD TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND PUT IT IN PARK. IT MADE A LOUD CLUNKING NOISE. I TURNING THE CAR OFF AND THEN BACK ON. I WAS THEN ABLE TO DRIVE IT HOME. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS IT IISNT THROWING ANY CODES OR INDICATING ANY PROBLEMS. THEY REPORT THAT MY COMPUTER IS UP TO DATE. THIS CAR IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND I AM TERRIFIED TO DRIVE IT. HYUNDAI WON'T BUY IT BACK SAYING THAT I JUST NEED TO LEARN 'HOW TO DRIVE MY CAR.' THEY OFFERED ME TWO MONTHS PAYMENTS.

I WAS TOLD IT WAS DUE TO THE DUAL CLUTCH AND THE VEHICLE WAS "OPERATING AS INTENDED". I FIND THAT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT WHEN YOU ARE SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT AND STEP ON THE GAS WHEN THE LIGHT CHANGES IT LAGS THEN SURGES INTO THE INTERSECTION. OR, STOPPED IN TRAFFIC AND WHEN IT IS TIME TO MOVE FORWARD, LAG AND SURGE ALMOST HITTING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. AS WELL AS MERGING ONTO A HIGHWAY AND LAGGING AS TRAFFIC IS COMING AT YOU AT 65 MPH AND YOU ARE LAGGING AND HOPING NOT TO BE HIT. I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT HYUNDAI WANTS THEIR VEHICLES TO BE RUNNING IN THIS MANNER. I HAVE BEEN IN TOUCH WITH HYUNDAI CUSTOMER CONNECT AND THEY SEND ME BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP.

THEY CLAIM ISSUE IS KNOWN AND HAS TO DO WITH IMPROPER OPERATION OF DUAL/DOUBLE CLUTCH TECHNOLOGY. SPOKE ALSO WITH TECHNICIANS WHO INDICATE THEY ARE AWARE OF ISSUE, BUT CAN'T DO ANYTHING TO REMEDY THE DANGERS. DAUGHTER DRIVES THIS VEHICLE AND HAS BEEN IN AT LEAST THREE NEAR MISS SIDE COLLISIONS AND SEVERAL NEAR STALL OUTS ON MAJOR ROADWAY AND INTERSECTIONS WHILE EITHER TURNING LEFT OR RIGHT AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS. THE LAST INCIDENT SHE WAS INVOLVED IN HAD THREE FAMILY OCCUPANTS IN THE VEHICLE WHO WERE WITNESSES TO THE FAILED ACCELERATION/STALLING/STUTTERING/JERKING ACCELERATION OF THE VEHICLE AND WERE SHOCKED IT HAD HAPPENED TO SUCH A NEW VEHICLE. I HAVE ALSO HAD THIS VEHICLE IN THE SAME SERVICE SHOP THAT I PURCHASED THE HYUNDAI FROM ON ARAPAHOE ROAD IN CENTENNIAL, COLORADO, UNDER THE NAME OF AUTO NATION HYUNDAI.

WE HAVE ATTEMPTED TO WORK WITH HYUNDAI CORPORATE ON THIS ISSUE AND ASKED THEM TO TAKE THE VEHICLE BACK, BUT THEY INDICATED IT DOES NOT MEET THEIR LEMON RULES, NOR HAS IT BEEN IN THE REPAIR SHOP ENOUGH TIMES TO WARRANT A BUY-BACK.

ALL THINGS CHEWED WERE MADE OF SOY BASED MATERIALS.I HAD MY CAR TOWED TO MY MECHANIC, NOT HYUNDAI DUE TO THE FACT THAT THEY DON'T ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY. I HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS (3X) W/MY HONDA 2014 CRV THAT'S WHY I GOT RID OF IT. I WAS TOLD BY BOTH HONDA & HYUNDAI "ITS NOT COVERED, IT'S NOT A MANUFACTURING DEFECT, IT'S CAUSED BY OUTSIDE CIRCUMSTANCES/ RODENTS. USE YOUR AUTO INSURANCE". THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT BECAUSE THEY USE SOY WHICH ATTRACTS THESE RODENTS. SOY WIRING HARNESSES SHOULD BE BANNED AND RECALLS INSTITUTED TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM BY EITHER REPLACING THE HARNESSES WITH STANDARD SYNTHETIC NON-EDIBLE POLYMERS AS APPROPRIATE TO THE SPECIFIC APPLICATION, OR PROVIDING COATINGS THAT PROVABLY PREVENT RODENTS FROM CONSUMING THE INSULATION OVER THE LIFESPAN OF THE VEHICLE. I CAN'T EVEN PARK IN MY OWN DRIVEWAY FOR FEAR OF MORE DAMAGE THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR DUE TO THE USE OF SOY. THIS PROBLEM IS ALL OVER THE INTERNET CAUSED BY SOY USED BY VARIOUS CAR MAKERS.

I HAVE BEEN STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT WANTING TO ACCELERATE FORWARD ON THE GREEN LIGHT AND AGAIN THE VEHICLE MAY OR MAY NOT RESPOND ADEQUATELY EVEN WHEN THE ENGINE GETS TO 4000 RPM'S. AFRAID I WILL BLOW AN ENGINE I DECELERATE WITH THE VEHICLE ONLY CREEPING FORWARD AT 3-5 MPH EVEN WITH THOSE HIGH RPM'S. I HAVE TO PUMP THE GAS PEDAL A FEW TIMES BEFORE THE TRANSMISSION ENGAGES. ONCE ENGAGED THE TRANSMISSION IS SLOW TO ACCELERATE, BUT EVENTUALLY RESPONDS RESPECTFULLY TO THE RPM'S.

WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN DRIVE, THE VEHICLE HAS A HABIT OF BEING HESITANT WHILE BEING GIVEN GAS. FOR EXAMPLE, AT A STOP SIGN OR TRAFFIC LIGHT, WHEN I GIVE THE VEHICLE SOME GAS TO GET GOING, IT IS UNRESPONSIVE AT THAT MOMENT. IF I GIVE IT A LITTLE MORE GAS, THE VEHICLE JOLTS FORWARD AS IF I FLOORED IT. THIS HAPPENS IN SPORT MODE AS WELL AS ECO MODE, ALTHOUGH I AM ABLE TO GET A LITTLE MORE RESPONSIVENESS IN SPORT MODE.

I DRIVE IN VERY HIGH TRAFFIC AREAS AND SOMEONE SEEING THIS MOVEMENT OF THE CAR IS GOING TO MISS INTERPRET MY INTENTIONS AND I WONT BE ABLE TO MOVE WHEN I WANT AND TRAFFIC IS GOING TO SLAM INTO ME. REALLY FEEL THAT THIS CAR IS GOING TO GET ME IN A BAD ACCIDENT OR EVEN KILL ME. I HAVE GONE TO THE DEALERSHIP 2 TIMES AND THEY SAY EVERYTHING IS WITHIN SPECS. THEY SUGGESTED USING SPORTMODE BUT I BOUGHT THE CAR FOR THE GAS MILEAGE THAT IT GETS. YOU LOSE 3 TO 5 GALLONS PER MILE IN SPORTS MODE AND IT STILL DOESN'T FIX ALL THE PROBLEMS. THE CHATTER IS A BIT LESS, BUT THE CAR IS ALWAYS SHIFTING. THE QUICK ACCELERATION ON TO A HIGH WAY SEEMS MORE CONSISTENT, BUT IT SHIFTS CONSTANTLY WHEN JUST DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. YOU CAN FEEL IT CONSTANTLY SHIFT EVEN IF YOU BARELY LET OFF THE GAS. ALL OF THESE THINGS YOU CAN'T FIND OUT WHEN YOU TEST DRIVE THE CAR AND NOW I FEEL LIKE I AM STUCK WITH KEEP A CAR THAT I WILL NEVER TRUST. IF ANYONE HAS A SOLUTION PLEASE LET ME KNOW.

PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF LIGHT REMAINS ON WHENEVER AN ADULT WEIGHING MORE THA 120 LBS ARE SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT WITH A SMALL PILLOW OR SEAT CUSHION ON THE SEAT. PILLOW IS NEEDED TO ENHANCE SEATING COMFORT, ESPECIALLY ON LONG ROAD TRIPS. LIGHT DOES WORK WHEN PILLOW IS NOT USED. UNFORTUNATELY, SEAT IS POORLY DESIGNED THAT REQUIRES ADDITIONAL AFTER MARKET SUPPORT TO MAKE IT USABLE ON LONG TRIPS. SENSOR NEED TO DETECT PASSENGER WEIGHT WITH OR WITHOUT ADDITIONAL CUSHIONS OR ACTIVATE THE AIRBAG 100% OF THE TIME. I HAVE ALREADY REPORTED THIS TO HYUNDAI, CASE NUMBER 10626629. THEY CLAIMED THE LIGHT IS WORKING AS DESIGNED, ONLY WHEN USED WITHOUT AFTER MARKET CUSHION. MY RESPONSE IS THAT IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY DEFECT IN DESIGN, IT OBVIOUSLY FAILED IN DETECTING THE TOTAL WEIGHT ON THE PASSENGER SEAT. I BELIEVE THAT HYUNDAI WOULD BE AT FAULT SHOULD THE AIRBAG FAILED TO DEPLOY DURING AN ACCIDENT AND THE PASSENGER IS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED. THERE ARE ADDITIONAL REASONS TO USE CUSHIONS FOR HEALTH OR HANDICAPPED PERSON, FOR EXAMPLE. HOW HARD IS IT TO DETECT TOTAL WEIGHT OF MORE THAN 90 LBS ON TOP OF THAT SEST? THE LIGHT REMAINS OFF WHEN CAR IS MOVING OR STOPPED. IN ADDITION, I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED NO ACCELERATION ON A LEFT TURN WHEN STEPPED ON GAS, AS PREVIOUSLY REPORTED BY OTHER'S.

WHEN THE VEHICLE IS AT A STOP OR SLOWED SPEED AND YOU GO TO ACCELERATE THERE IS A FAILURE WITH THE DUAL CLUTCH AND/OR TURBO ENGINE TRANSMISSION WHICH DELAYS YOU FROM ACCELERATING AT AN EXPECTED SPEED.

ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION THE GAS PEDAL WAS PRESSED TO THE FLOOR OF THE VEHICLE WITHOUT PROPER INCREASE OF SPEED. THESE REPETITIVE ERRORS OCCUR AT LOW SPEEDS/GEARS.

YESTERDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, AT APPROXIMATELY 5:25PM, IN WELLFLEET, MA., I WAS TURNING OUT FROM A STORE ALONG RT. 6, AND MY CAR SUDDENLY BEGAN JERKING, CAUSING ME TO LOSE SPEED. IT WAS RAINING WITH A LOT OF TRAFFIC. I ALMOST HAD AN ACCIDENT AS A CAR WAS COMING DOWN RT. 6! I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS CAR. THE ATTEMPTS BY HYUNDAI TO ADDRESS THIS DCT TRANSMISSION ISSUE WITH "SOFTWARE UPDATES" ARE NOT WORKING! PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT! THANK YOU.

SINCE I BOUGHT THIS 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON IN OCT, 2016, I'VE HAD ONGOING PROBLEMS WITH THE DCT TRANSMISSION, EVEN AFTER HYUNDAI INSTALLED THEIR "SOFTWARE UPDATE." I'VE VISITED THE DEALER TWICE TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEM, AND PLAN ANOTHER VISIT THIS FRIDAY. HOWEVER, THE LAST SERVICE REP I SPOKE TO SAID, IF I'M "STILL HAVING THESE PROBLEMS AFTER THE SOFTWARE UPDATE, THERE'S REALLY NOTHING ELSE WE CAN DO AT THE DEALERSHIP." THIS ONGOING TRANSMISSION PROBLEM IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE! THIS WEEK, FOR EXAMPLE, THERE HAVE BEEN TWO INSTANCES WHERE I ALMOST HAD AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THE TRANSMISSION FAILING TO SHIFT AND STALLING, CAUSING DELAYED ACCELERATION. (THE CURRENT MILAGE ON CAR IS 12,559.) ON MONDAY OF THIS WEEK, SEPTEMBER 4, THE CAR SAT IN DRIVEWAY UNTIL ABOUT 3:42PM. (IT WAS 74 DEGREES OUT AND HUMID DAY.) I PULL OUT OF DRIVE WAY AND THE CAR JERKS AS I ACCELERATE. I DROVE TO INTERSECTION OF OLD WHARF RD. AND RT. 6 ON CAPE COD. RT.6 IS A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY, ESPECIALLY ON LABOR DAY. I PULL OUT OF INTERSECTION TO TAKE A LEFT, AND THE CAR TRANSMISSION SUDDENLY FAILS TO SHIFT CAUSING ME TO LOSE SIGNIFICANT SPEED. I BARELY GET OUT IN TIME AS A CAR COMES UP ON ME FROM BEHIND AND ALMOST HITS ME!! I COULD HAVE HAD A SERIOUS ACCIDENT! SIMILARLY, YESTERDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN DRIVEN ALL DAY, THE CAR JERKS AGAIN AS I LEAVE MY DRIVE WAY AND AS I STOP AND TURN ONTO OLD WHARF RD. I GO TO A LOCAL STORE ON RT. 6 HIGHWAY ABOUT 1 MILE AWAY. AS I'M LEAVING STORE, I ACCELERATE FAST GET GET ON HIGHWAY. THERE IS A CAR COMING. MY CAR SUDDENLY LOSES POWER AGAIN DUE TO FAILURE TO SHIFT AND I AM ALMOST HIT BY THE CAR AS I GET ON THE HIGHWAY! I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS VEHICLE!! HYUNDAI'S ATTEMPTS TO FIX THIS DCT TRANSMISSION PROBLEM IS NOT WORKING! SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE ABOUT IT SOON BEFORE INDIVIDUALS OR FAMILIES GET SERIOUSLY INJURED!

I PURCHASED A 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON DECEMBER 2016. THE FOLLOWING CAMPAIGNS ARE ON MY VEHICLE AND HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF OTHER HYUNDAI'S: MFR CAMPAIGN/SAFETY RECALL NOTICE: T1B MANUFACTURER CAMPAIGN ID: T1B 2016-17 TUCSON DCT CONTROL LOGIC UPDATE I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO HYUNDAI ON JUNE 28TH FOR THIS RECALL. RIGHT AWAY I NOTICED A CHANGE IN HOW THE VEHICLE DROVE. HOWEVER NOT EVEN A MONTH LATER THE VEHICLE STARTED DRIVING LIKE IT DID PRIOR TO THE "FIX". A COMPLETE STOP TO ACCELERATION IS NOT SMOOTH, THE VEHICLE JERKS EXTREMELY HARD AND SOMETIMES DOESN'T RESPOND. OTHER TIMES IT DOESN'T REAPOND AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE VEHICLE TAKES OFF. TRYING TO ACCELERATE TO MERGE ONTO THE FREEWAY OR INTO ANY FLOW OF TRAFFIC IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE WITHOUT A CLOSE CALL WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE. THIS CAR IS UNSAFE AND SCARY TO DRIVE. NOT TO MENTION DRIVING IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC HAS BECOME A "WHEN WILL I CAUSE AN ACCIDENT" MOMENT BECAUSE OF THE STOP TO ACCELERATION LAG, JERK AND THEN RANDOM ACCELERATION WHICH ALMOST REDLINES. I HAVE NEVER BEEN IN A CAR ACCIDENT AND I CAN TELL YOU THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE FOR ALL THOSE ON THE HIGHWAY, INCLUDING MYSELF AND THE VEHICLE HAS BECOME A COMPLETE NUISANCE TO DRIVE. MY UNDERSTANDING IS HYUNDAI HAS CLAIMED THEY HAVE FIXED THIS ISSUE WITH A SIMPLE UPDATE, AND THE 2017S SHOULD BE OKAY, HOWEVER THE WAY MY VEHICLE DRIVES WOULD ARGUABLY DISAGREE AND PROVE THAT TO BE WRONG. HYUNDAI NEEDS TO OPEN A FULL RECALL OF THESE VEHICLES UNTIL THE PROBLEM IS RESOLVED BEFORE PEOPLE GET KILLED BECAUSE OF IT. IF NOT THOSE DEATHS WILL BE ON HYUNDAIS HANDS.

THIS HAS PUT ME IN DANGEROUS SITUATIONS WHEN I BELIEVE I HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO TURN, BUT WHEN THE CAR DOES NOT RESPOND, MY TIME AVAILABLE TO TURN IS REDUCED. I REPORTED THIS TO THE DEALER AND THEY INDICATED THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS BEHAVIOR AND IT IS THE NATURE OF A DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION. THE SERVICE MAN SAID THAT IT TAKES TIME FOR THE COMPUTER TO DETERMINE WHAT IT IS GOING TO DO NEXT AND I NEED TO GIVE IT THAT TIME.

THIS SEEMS TO HAPPEN DURING PERIODS OF HIGH OUTSIDE TEMPERATURES AND ONLY SPORADICALLY. THIS DESCRIBES THE EXACT SAME CONDITIONS THAT HYUNDAI RECALLED THE 2016 TUCSONS FOR IN SEPTEMBER OF 2016. THIS IS WHAT HYUNDAI SAID THEN: "HYUNDAI SAYS THE TRANSMISSION CLUTCH APPLICATION LOGIC CAN CAUSE A DELAYED ENGAGEMENT OF THE TRANSMISSION WHEN TAKING OFF FROM A STOP." WHEN I'VE TAKEN THE VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE, THE TECHNICIANS SAY THAT THEY CAN'T REPLICATE THE CONDITION, SO THEY CANNOT PULL A CODE AND FIND A PROBLEM.

SEVERAL TIMES (AS MANY AS 10+), STARTING FROM A DEAD STOP AT A LIGHT, THE CAR WILL BEGIN FORWARD PROGRESS WITH NORMAL DEPRESSION OF GAS PEDAL. POWER TO THE WHEELS WILL THEN COMPLETELY VANISH FOR MOMENTS OF TIME (1-2 SECONDS) THEN THE CAR WILL EVENTUALLY MOVE FORWARD AGAIN. I'VE ALMOST BEEN REAR ENDED TWICE DUE TO THIS. I AM LUCKY TO NOT HAVE BEEN T-BONED WHEN CROSSING NON-LIT BUSY INTERSECTIONS. TYPE OF GASOLINE USED (REGULAR OR PREMIUM), DRIVE MODES (STANDARD OR SPORT), HARD DEPRESSION OF PEDAL OR SOFT DEPRESSION OF PEDAL, NOTHING SEEMS TO COINCIDE WITH THE THESE RANDOM OCCURRENCES. THIS IS NOT THE TYPICAL WAY A DCT SHOULD OPERATE. I HAVE DRIVEN VW DCT VEHICLES FOR YEARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD THESE EXTREMELY SCARY HESITATION MOMENTS WITH THEM.

NO OR MINIMAL FORWARD MOVEMENT WHEN PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR FROM A STOPPED POSITION (IN AUTOMATIC). THE OPERATOR MUST DEPRESS THE ACCELERATOR ALMOST TO THE FLOOR BEFORE THERE'S ANY ACCELERATION (AND GETTING HIGH RPMS). IT ALMOST FEELS LIKE THE VEHICLE IS ATTEMPTING TO MOVE FORWARD IN THE WRONG GEAR - THERE'S NO POWER/TORQUE. THIS SITUATION OCCURS FREQUENTLY AND IS MOST DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING THROUGH AN INTERSECTION FROM A FULL STOP - ESPECIALLY WHEN ATTEMPTING A LEFT-HAND TURN WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC (BUT NOT LIMITED TO TURNS). THE VEHICLE SLOWS ALMOST TO A STALL. THESE SYMPTOMS OCCUR IN ALL 3 DRIVE MODES: ECO, STANDARD, AND SPORT. HOWEVER, I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED THESE SYMPTOMS AT NIGHT OR LEAVING A GARAGE IN THE MORNING. IT APPEARS TO OCCUR AFTER THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN SITTING IN THE SUN FOR A LONG PERIOD, I.E, WHEN THE AMBIENT TEMPERATURE OF THE VEHICLE IS HOT. I LIVE IN ARIZONA. AS ADDED CONTEXT, IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THIS IS MY 3RD HYUNDAI TUCSON SE. THE PREVIOUS MODELS WERE 2010 AND 2013. I NEVER EXPERIENCED THESE SYMPTOMS WITH THOSE EARLIER MODELS.

THE CAR WILL GENERALLY CREEP FORWARD A FEW FEET AT A VERY SLOW CRAWL OF 1-2 MPH, BUT WILL NOT ACTUALLY TAKE OFF UNTIL 3-5 SECONDS INTO PUSHING THE PEDAL. THIS BEHAVIOR OF THE CAR CAN CAUSE YOU TO BE OUT IN ONCOMING TRAFFIC FOR UPWARDS OF 5-7 SECONDS OR LONGER. THIS IS A VERY SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE AS A CAR SHOULD NEVER HAVE A DELAY IN ACCELERATION OF MORE THAN 1-2 SECONDS LET ALONE 5 OR MORE.

THE DUAL-CLUTCH TRANSMISSION IS INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS, AS IT HAS AN EXTREME DELAYED ACCELERATION WHEN COMING OFF A COMPLETE STOP OR JUST INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING, IN WHICH THE ENGINE WILL REDLINE IN RPM. PARKING LOTS ARE ABSOLUTE MISERY AS WELL, AS THE VEHICLE JERKS HEAVILY AT LOW SPEEDS. ANOTHER SHOCKING ISSUE WITH THIS TRANSMISSION IS THAT IT WILL PROPEL THE CAR FORWARD 3-5 MPH EVEN WITHOUT PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL AND GOING UP A HILL. IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE THAT THIS TRANSMISSION IS LEGAL TO SELL TO CAR BUYERS AND I HOPE THE NHTSA TAKES FURTHER ACTION AGAINST HYUNDAI. I'VE ONLY OWNED THIS VEHICLE LESS THAN 2 WEEKS AND I'M GOING TO BE OUT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS, AS I CAN'T DRIVE THIS VEHICLE.

THE VEHICLE HAS A DRIVE-BY-WIRE SYSTEM CONTROLLING THE THROTTLE AND THE 7-SPEED DUAL-CLUTCH TRANSMISSION. IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES, THE THROTTLE PEDAL HAS NO EFFECT ON THE THROTTLE WHATSOEVER. IT HAPPENS MOST IN 'ECO' MODE, BUT STILL HAPPENS IN 'SPORT' MODE, ALWAYS AT A RELATIVELY LOW SPEED (WALKING PACE) OR WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP. THE VEHICLE HAS HAD ONE FIRMWARE UPDATE (AT ABOUT 3K MILES?) WHICH DID MINIMIZE THE PROBLEM SOMEWHAT, BUT DIDN'T ELIMINATE IT. AT 7,900 MILES THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE, AND THE DEALER SAYS THERE ARE NO NEW FIRMWARE UPDATES THEY ARE AWARE OF. I AM CONCERNED BECAUSE MANY TIMES, WHEN IN SLOW OR STOP-AND-GO TRAFFIC, I'VE NEEDED TO ACCELERATE AND THE VEHICLE SIMPLY WOULDN'T DO IT FOR WHAT FELT LIKE FOREVER, BUT WAS PROBABLY ONLY A SECOND OR TWO. WHEN THE VEHICLE FINALLY DID START TO MOVE, IT JUMPED FORWARD AT FULL THROTTLE.

Chart Analysis

The blue line shows 1073 total NHTSA complaints filed over 11 years, with the worst year being 2023 (178 complaints, including 5 crash reports).

The amber reliability line is declining — recent years score around 78/100, lower than earlier in the vehicle's life. This pattern indicates issues are accumulating over time rather than being resolved, which is a concern for used buyers.

Notably, despite 1073 complaints on file, no recall has been issued — either the defect pattern has not met NHTSA's threshold for a formal campaign, or a recall may be forthcoming.

Red dots on the amber line flag 5 years (2018, 2019, 2020, 2022, 2023) where complaints included crash events — these are the highest-severity incidents in the dataset.
