2023 Hyundai Tucson

The contact owns a 2023 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while driving approximately 60 mph, there was a loud explosion coming from the roof of the vehicle. the contact pulled over to the side of the road and discovered that the rear of the sunroof had exploded, and there was glass inside the cabin of the vehicle. the vehicle was taken to the dealer but was not diagnosed or repaired. the insurance company was contacted and referred the contact to paul island glass and the sunroof was covered with tape. the glass was scheduled to be replaced, but the vehicle was not yet repaired. the manufacturer was informed of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 20,000.

Approximately 2-3 months ago, the horn had failed. this was reported to the dealer and covered under warranty. during the service the dealer advised that this issue was due to a faulty electrical contact and was a “known issue with the supplier of the horn”. because of this, hyundai extended the warranty period on the horn. now, the horn had failed a second time and was discovered during a safety hazard in which i needed to alert another driver. this had the potential to cause serious injury but was avoided.

Fuel injectors failed at 18523 miles. replaced both low and high injector on this cylinder 3 and then continued performance issues. replaced all low injectors in al 4 cylinders but did not replace higher injectors stranded on sunday on highway with no rental cars open except airport.

This week i noticed my low tone horn on my vehicle had stopped working it was replaced under warranty by hyundai at 41000 miles only a little while ago at 35000 miles both horns went out and i only learned this when i needed it to help avoid being hit and it wasn’t available hyundai indicated they are aware of issue but are still replacing horns with the same original part that is prone to shorting out

2023 hyundai tucson with just over 14,000 miles failed to accelerate. after completing a right turn the vehicle seemed like it went into neutral. a green warning light appeared stating limit 20 mph. i now know this is “limp mode”. turning the vehicle off and back on seemed to resolve the issue. the vehicle was towed to the dealer. they found nothing wrong. i was told to take a picture of the warning next time. i was fortunate to not have caused an accident. this is incredibly dangerous.

When driving in dark areas with low outdoor lighting, the instrument panel is reflected in the drivers window. aside from being distracting, there is obstructed visibility where the reflection occurs. i have made repeated calls, that go ignored, to hyndai customer care, brought it to my service dealer upon request for protocol, who could not react because it was daytime. the instrument panel happens not to be recessed as in other cars i have had. i simply want suggestions on how to alleviate the problem. thank you

I was driving to work taking the same route i have since i purchased the vehicle when i lost acceleration on the road. i was unable to go above 40 mph and i had the gas pedal pressed all the way to the floor. i was going uphill and the lack of acceleration could have caused an accident if there was not enough space behind me and the vehicle behind me.

Two days after purchasing this vehicle brand new, i received a "low oil" alert. i took it to the nearest hyundai dealership where a salesman filled the engine with oil. only a couple hundred miles later i received another "low oil" alert. i have been attempting to solve this issue with hyundai, however, they are insistent that i must complete an oil consumption test, which takes 3,000 miles of testing to complete. this vehicle is burning oil, and burning oil fast. i do not know where the burnt oil is going, but if it is going through the exhaust system and catalytic converter this may be a fire hazard.

The contact owns a 2023 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while driving from a stationary position, the vehicle switched to safe mode and suddenly decelerated, and would not accelerate above 20 - 27 mph. during the failure, the message "limited to 20 mph" was displayed. the cause of the failure was not determined. the local dealer and manufacturer were not yet notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 1,789.

Twice in the past two months, i have been driving down the highway going 70 mph with no car in close proximity to the front of me and the automatic emergency braking has activated, suddenly braking for no reason. in the first instance, there was a car in the lane to the left of me, and the second time cars on both sides of me. but in neither instance was a vehicle close to them front of my vehicle. the second time the car felt like it was going into a skid when the braking activated. i took the car to the dealer (irwin hyundai) the first time and they told me the sensors on the car were not properly calibrated when the new car was delivered to me. when i called irwin’s today after it happened a second time, i was told the car was “functioning as designed” but they would look at it. i am scared to drive the car at this point given that the brakes randomly were activated while at high speeds and without any basis for activation.

Icu module failure. power steering not as effective, instrument cluster failure, driver warnings like low tire pressure, blind spot detection and others do not work. speedometer and miles driven stopped working. advised to not drive the car as power steering could completely fail without warning.

I just bought the car, it was brand new off the lot. the check engine light came on followed by every emergency warning on my dash. after this my power steering failed, i was able to move over to the right lane a bit, but that’s it. i tried turning the car off at this point and turning it back on, but it would not turn back on. i could not even put on my emergency 4 way blinkers. the car would not even detect the key at this point. thankfully we were on a small, low traffic road and not the freeway or a major accident would have been inevitable.

Vehicle was purchased new from local hyundai dealership in dubuque, ia on november 17, 2022 and delivered november 22nd. vehicle had just under 200 miles on odometer. brake system was working well at that time. on january 21, 2023 i stopped for a red light. after a few seconds the brake pedal started going down and went completely down. mileage at that time was just over 1700 miles. i took the car into the dealership on january 23rd and they checked the system and said that it was normal. the shop supervisor said that it was not a problem that when the pedal went down it was applying more pressure to the brake system. i disagreed with them as this is usually the fault of master cylinder seals leaking. they brought a newer vehicle into the shop and it had the same problem so no repairs were made. i believe this is an accident waiting to happen and i would like to have the problem corrected. this appears to be a problem with hyundai vehicles. our vehicle is a hyundai tucson.

I leased this suv 12/22/2023,upon driving it on 12/26 as i exited a major highway,leaving highway amd entering exit ramp the suv lost brake funcrion as well as transmission function,absolute total loss of both brake and transmission systems,miraculously i was able to coast to safty with assistance from another motorist holding the car from rolling furthermore,needless to say this was a harrowing and dangerously close to a tragic accident due to this compmete failure of brake and transmission simultaneously failing,i had to incur a costly towing fee and also completely uninformed as to what the root/cause of problem was as well as any timeframe of repair,as of the time of myself writing this message and thirty plus days later ,i have recieved zero cooperation and even outwardly standoffish behavior towards myself,my hisband and my personal leasing agent,i am very concerned of the loaner car becoming a financial burden as my husband was forced to basically suffer rentl vetting and credit card deposit protocols upon paying for and delivering the damaged suv,we have for weeks tried to ascertain any information on the extent and cause of damage to leased suv as we are not intrested in recieving original damaged because we are fearful of our safety as we are still uninformed as of 1/31/2023 please note local police were on the scene and confirmed total breakdown status/tow needed status

I was driving on the highway & my sunroof exploded. glass was shattered & rained down on me & my occupants. 1/the sun roof - i have since vacuumed the mess, but it is still not repaired. available for inspection if needed until i get it into the shop. 2/ i was driving 65 mph when the loud noise (phone gave a warning of decibal level not safe) - broken glass & glass 'dust' blowing on us / breathed in by us. the shock of it happening when surrounded by busy traffic on a highway. 3/i have made many calls into hyundai to get it taken care of - they are not returning my calls. 4/i initially took it into a dealership (ken garff-surprise) & they did not seem interested in inspecting - had a glass company reach out to me to replace the sunroof thru my insurance. 5/no warning at all.

I leased my 2023 hyundai tucson from your authorized dealership south shore hyundai in ny march 18,2003. i received the vehicle with 34 miles on the digital odometer at approximately 1750 eastern standard time. at approximately 2030 eastern standard time with the vehicle at 62 mile on the digital odometer. i was driving with my family, which is made up of my wife, daughter 22yrs old and son 14 years old on the wantagh parkway south approximately location 40.740739,-73.544842 at the speed limit of 55 mph. i began to hear knocking noise from the front of the vehicle that progressively got louder. then immediately the check engine, brake, oil, key with car, battery, open doors, every light that the dashboard has came on. immediately the whole vehicle lost power and i could no longer accelerate. the steering wheel got stiff and the vehicle had no response to brakes. the vehicle started stuttering.the engine died, rpms at 0 and no response on the accelerator, brakes and steering. the vehicle would not start.i tried push start several times start the vehicle, remote start, app start and putting the remote close to the push start with no results. i felt helpless and in a very dangerous situation that this brand new hyundai vehicle put my family and me in. my family’s life was at the mercy of a 62 mile brand new 2023 hyundai tucson sel that i received less than 2 and half hours ago from a certified dealership south shore hyundai in ny. we were stuck in the left lane in the middle of the wantagh parkway south bound with nowhere to go with the median divider to my left and to the right it was a fully active lane of on coming traffic in order to reach the safety of the shoulder. my family and i had to cross a full active lane of on coming traffic to get to the shoulder safely. we were able to get to the shoulder safely.the safety hazards presented by this vehicle created is dangerous to america families. brand new vehicle should not suddenly shut off.put the public in danger.

Attempt to accelerate and will not accelerate and car start overheating and bad odor smog coming out from the exhaust. dealer foud the following, concern scanned for codes, found codes p111100, p030000. p030100, p030300, p030400 abnormal combustion detection for any cylender, ramdon cylinder misfire detected cylinder #1,2,3,4 misfire detected, performed fuel test found alcohol at 5% found fuel was discolored and smell varnish or contaminated, dealer still have the car and they want us to pay for the repairs and void the warranty, we contact the state to do a fuel test to the gas station and everything is with the guidelines base on the report, looks like the car is deffective and something needs to check

On 04/16/23 i got into my car and immediately after going into drive the brakes completely failed. the car continued accelerating even after releasing the accelerator and refused to stop even while pumping the brakes. thank god i turned into a tree and missed pedestrians. the car was totaled.

While driving the sunroof shattered. i felt a weird pressure than it shattered

The contact owns a 2023 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle hesitated to accelerate and then lost motive power. the check engine warning light was illuminated. additionally, a fuel odor was detected while driving. the vehicle was able to be restarted, and the contact drove to a nearby gas station to park the vehicle. the vehicle was towed to the dealer; however, the vehicle was not yet diagnosed or repaired. the contact stated that the dealer had previously replaced two fuel injectors due to water in the fuel tank. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 8,000.

I purchased a new vehicle in february 2023. after a month and a half, i traveled to washington dc on a pleasure trip. after my work/vacation trip when i am returning back to home all of the sudden, there was heavy smoke from the hood and eventually tried to turn off the engine but the car didn't respond, and when i tried to open the hood in order to cool down the engine i see fire already in the engine. so, there was no intimation on the dashboard about the fire or not even an alert. moreover, the engine didn't turn off even after trying to turn it off 4- 5 times. i was really worried about what would happen if the door locks stops working

I bought a 2023 tucson sel from rohrman auto in lafayette, indiana it had a major drive train failure from the factory this is failure #1 and should have been caught at the factory upon inspections i did not want to buy a vehicle from rohrman that had a problem this is failure #2 as the dealer admitted that they should have caught this defect in their inspections before they sold it it took me over a week to get the dealer interested in the problem. i do not want this defective car. this is failure #3 as the dealer has pushed the resolution of this problem on me and is generally unresponsive to my direct, clear, and respectful requests i made a case with hyundai customer service (case # 21183458) requesting the same. this is failure #4 as the customer service system seems to be broken, and left me stuck between a staff turnover problem there —> as you can clearly see, hmusa's manufacturing and quality checks failures have been compounded by customer service failures by both the rohrman and hmusa that now leaving me stuck with a major problem. i simply want a new, defect free tucson sel in amazon green or sea blue. you can have this defective vehicle back.

Two times in the last two weeks of march and about 10 times since we purchased the vehicle new in december 2022, after starting the vehicle and backing out of our garage onto our street, then stopping then shifting from reverse to drive and going no faster than 15-20 mph for about 300 yards, the tucson revs up to about 3ooo-3500 rpm and will not shift into second gear. after about 1 minute or so it seems ok. but until then the transmission does not shift smoothly like it did the first six weeks of ownership. it did not operate like this until about the beginning of february. something is not right with the transmission. i suspect his will be difficult to diagnose since it is intermittent. want to get this documented and checked out before this becomes a major problem. this is also a safety concern since the vehicle is limited to about 15 mph and could cause an accident if it malfunctions when pulling out onto the street and there is following traffic. our vehicle has been at the dealership since april 7th waiting for approval and installation of a new factory transmission. was supposed to be completed yesterday or today, but no info from the dealership yet. i suspect this may not have resolved the vehicle defect.

Purchased car in january 2033. i noticed the radio failed to work so i took it in to the closest dealership on may 10th. dealership said there was a problem with the navigation system and the car needed a software update. also advised, the update would repair some other electrical and system issues as well. was told on 5/17 update would not be available until the end of may and that my carcshould not be driven so i should maintain the rental they provided. lsstly, i have noticed some performance issues with shifting and speed as well. i thought update might fix, but after reading other complaints i will be reporting it to the dealership as well.

The contact owns a 2023 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving at various speeds on several occasions, the forward collision avoidance: automatic emergency braking system activated unintendedly. the contact stated that on several occasions there were no vehicles nearby. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 2,500.

My son was backing out of a parking spot at a strip mall. he released some pressure on the brake and indicated that the car lurched backwards and even though he reapplied full pressure to the brakes, he hit the car at the curb resulting in damage to our tucson, but luckily not the to the other car. the rear cross-traffic collision-avoidance assist system did not engage, but my son indicated that the rear distance warning system did beep. i am concerned due to the sudden acceleration/lurching incident my son experienced and this is not acceptable in any car. i ask the nhtsa to see if other hyundai tucson or kia sportage owners, especially with the hybrid engine are experiencing this.

Unknown what fails. after driving approximately 30 minutes on a highway, car suddenly stops accelerating and bucks a bit as it slows. must turn off car and turn it back on to accelerate again. happens on the highway frequently. very dangerous as there’s no way to accelerate. only stop. it’s like it can’t find a gear and the engine revs. it happened 6 times during a 2.5 hour drive.

I have not had a problem but the turn signals are polaced at the lowest point on rear bumper making it difficult for the car following to see the signal. this may cause a rear collision. it needs to be in the brake light panel. a design flaw in my opinion. maybe a simple rewire will fix the defect.03/22/202

Power steering failed during vehicle operation while car was moving at speed. steering wheel became excessively difficult to turn, severely limiting control of the vehicle and rendering the vehicle undriveable. vehicle displayed dtc codes c168886 and c241396. these codes appear to be indicative of a failure of one or all of the power steering system wiring, motor, and electronic control unit.

On 6/26/23 i was driving the tucson. i was stopped at a light in traffic waiting for the light to change. suddenly the icons on the dashboard turned red and started flashing. a message “engine off” displayed and the engine turned off. i was able to turn the vehicle back on and was able to drive. the automatic shut off of the engine while driving presents a safety risk.

Car is 7 months old. we had it less than 2 weeks and a rock hit the windshield and caused a crack, which we had professionally repaired the next day. 3 weeks later another small rock hits the windshield and it cracks to the point we have to have it replaced. 5 weeks later another small item hits the windshield and it cracks and we have to have it replaced again. today, a small rock hit the windshield and caused a crack that we will be having repaired tomorrow. i have never had a car where we had to have a repair or replacement of the windshield more than once every 1-2 years and this is the 3rd windshield in the car in less than 7 months. my insurance has covered the costs so far except for the time and trouble of me having to take time off of work to go to the windshield place and have it repaired or replaced. i complained to the hyundai dealership about this situation and the service manager told me "maybe you should drive on a different road". we drive this car 2 times a week on well traveled paved freeways. this is insane and makes me concerned that the glass is too thin potentially being a danger in the case of an accident. plus when you pay 45k for a car, you would expect the windshield to last more than a month at a time.

Ac system is not functioning properly. having the car on for 20 minutes, ac system does not kick in allowing the car to cool properly. this happens when temps are above 95 degrees. this is an issue as it could lead to someone passing out as someone is driving a car. as the temps of outside and inside of the car compound as the cabin can't cool down. serious issue as a car should cool down with 5 to 10 minutes. car rarely blows cold air and ahould not be operated in hot environments.

When the vehicle was started the srs light remained illuminated and when driving the vehicle over 40 mph the abs, traction control, collision avoidance, and start-stop lights on the instrument cluster come on and remained on. the adaptive cruise control, nor the button for the start-stop deactivation work. the vehicle has just over 500 miles on the vehicle and is less than a week old.

I was driving on i95 and all of sudden the truck started sputtering and shut off. i turned off and back on , it would not go. then the engine light came on. there was also smoke coming from the tail pipe when i tried again to start it. back in december 2022, i was driving and the truck cut off and would not start at all. it was diagnosed as the ignition coil being the problem. this horrible, both times could have been worse because of it cutting off while driving.

Oil pan leak. a lot of owners aren’t aware their oil pan is leaking cause the dealer offer a 3 years complimentary service. i only notice mine is leaking cause i changed my own oil now. dealers won’t fix anything under warranty unless customer tell them. hyundai mechanic on youtube say it’s a common problem.

My suv is a hybrid. i slowed down before making a right turn to check if it was clear before continuing with the turn. i see one car and its pretty far away. my gas engine switch off to go into ev. i step on the gas and my suv goes no where for about 5 seconds. now the car down the street is approaching me fast. finally the gas engine kicks on my suv started moving. the other car honk and went around me.

The contact owns a 2023 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving 45 mph, the oil warning light illuminated. the contact pulled over and checked the oil level and became aware that there was no oil in the engine. the contact added oil however, the failure recurred. the vehicle was towed to the dealer and the dealer confirmed that there was no oil in the engine however, the cause of the failure was not found. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was contacted and stated that an oil consumption test needed to be performed. the failure mileage was 49,000.

This is copy and pasted from your site. hyundai does not have a recall ready, so i am filing a complaint. is this the correct action? the transmission electric oil pump for the idle stop & go system (isg) in the subject vehicles might have been assembled with printed circuit boards (pcb) that were damaged during manufacturing by the oil pump controller supplier. a damaged capacitor on the pump controller pcb could impact electrical operation leading to heat damage to the electric oil pump circuit board, connector, and wiring harness. the heat damage at the pump increases the risk of a vehicle fire in addition to a potential controller area network (can) communication disruption for multiple onboard controllers. thanks for your time.

When vehicle is just slightly moving and the accelerator is depressed, the vehicle does not respond, zero acceleration. this issue is repeatable and poses a hazard when cross traffic is coming. wether in eco, smart or sport mode, it has this non-accelerating issue.

Trunk door opens by itself. this has happened after exiting vehicle at least 3 times when vehicle is parked. has not happened while moving

I was driving at normal speed and all of a sudden the vehicle accelerated to a high speed. took to dealer with all the other issues and they could not create the problem. they are trying to blame it on me for have two sets of mats. also navigation unit is not the correct unit in car. when i apply the brake to stop it seems as if the frame is creaking.

When driving the car and stopping at red lights, stop signs, or any other stops in traffic on roads and expressways, the car engine randomly dies and cannot restart between 3 and 10 mins. there is no warning when this is about to happen – the car engine simply dies and dashboard lights come on. there is no response from the car after shifting in neutral or park by pressing the start button with foot on brake. after some amount of time, the car will start. there is no warning before this is going to happen. the dealer (patrick hyundai) has inspected the car three times and has not been able to reproduce the problem as this happens randomly. they told me on my third visit to not bring the car back as they don't know what the problem is. the first time this happened was 4 months after i owned the car and has happened in excess of 6 times i now fear for my life when i drive this car. i was almost hit twice. i was stopped on a busy main street at a red light when the light turned green and all cars drove away and the truck approaching me assumed i would drive also but couldn’t because the car was stalled in the middle of the road. the truck veered away as last second to avoid my stationary car. the 2nd time was on expressway during traffic when stop and go driving was occurring and my car engine died again. as in previous case, vehicle behind me anticipated i would move forward like other cars but couldn’t and stopped inches from back bumper.

Since the day i took possession of the car there is a bad visibility situation with the windshield. it happens only when the sun is low in the sky and shining directly toward the windshield. under those conditions the entire windshield has millions of dense specks or sparkles that impair visibility. i have already determined that this is not due to any contaminants/sap/dirt on the inside or outside of the glass. this is not due to any sandblasting of the outside of the glass. it is in the glass, perhaps in the lamination. the dealer, once he determined that it is not due to any pitting, denied any responsibility, warranty, or concern. it is impossible, as far as i know, to reproduce this problem once the sun is high, so i cannot prove it to the dealer.

The contact owns a 2023 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the abs, check engine, low oil pressure, and forward collision avoidance warning lights illuminated. the vehicle was taken to the dealer but was not yet diagnosed. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 6,200.

The contact owns a 2023 hyundai tucson. the contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 23v526000 (power train) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. the local dealer was made aware of the issue and confirmed that parts were not yet available. the contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. the manufacturer was made aware of the issue. the contact had not experienced a failure. parts distribution disconnect.

The contact owns a 2023 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving at 55 mph with the cruise control activated, the forward collision avoidance warning system activated, and the vehicle inadvertently applied the automatic braking before releasing. the contact stated no other vehicles or objects were nearby. the forward collision avoidance warning light was illuminated. the vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 2,000.

I was driving on the highway at 60/70 mph and there was nothing in front of my car. the brakes went on for a second stopping the car abruptly and i swerved. this happened once more. it then happened another time on a turn as i tried to regain control of the car it swerved from side to side and almost got into an accident or spun out.

When i push the brake and push start button at the same time to start the vehicle, it will appear as if it is fully started. it is not until i put the vehicle in reverse that i notice the vehicle is not fully started. this happens on cold or hot starts and anytime of the day sometimes multiple times a day. the battery, malfunction indicator light, immobilizer, and engine oil pressure lights/lamps are on.the service department advisor did say my vehicle replicated but the vehicle was not hooked up to reader at the time. after that no service technician has been able to reproduce the problem. the vehicle has been to the dealership on 3 different occasions and i have provided them with a video.

Vehicle randomly keeps accelerating past the set speed when cruise control is set. problem was first noticed in march. have a video of the cruise set at 69 mph and the vehicle continued to accelerate to 87 mph before i disengaged it. vehicle has been to two different hyundai dealers for the issue but were unable to duplicate or find the issue. one moth ago were on a road trip and the cruise would accelerate to 8-10mph over the set speed on the cruise control especially after cresting a hill ,then the adaptive cruise control would brake hard when approaching another vehicle. 0

On four occasions in the last five weeks, i have been driving at relatively low speed (20-30 mph), and when i attempt to accelerate, the vehicle will not accelerate when i press the gas pedal. the tachometer shows the rpms are maxed out, but the vehicle does not accelerate no matter how hard i press the gas pedal. i have to pull off the road, turn off the vehicle, and restart to fix it. i am certain i have not accidentally hit any buttons or switches each time. i have tried changing drive modes (eco/normal/sport) and using the paddle shifters and that has no effect. cruise control is off, and no other speed limiting system is activated. there are no warning lights or indicators when this occurs. this is incredibly dangerous, as i am unable to get up to speed on a main road. a few instances led me to be unable to successfully merge onto a main road, which has led to me almost being rear-ended on one occasion, and the most recent instance i was in the left lane of a main road and attempting to pass a large truck and could not maintain speed. i was fortunate to come upon a slight downhill slope and was able to coast across the right lane and get off the road, but it was a near-accident. the dealer service center was unable to diagnose the issue, and therefore could not repair it.

The hybrid system has twice now failed on this vehicle shortly after starting it up. the second incident, i drove not even 300 feet, got onto a main, very busy road, and the system made a loud grinding noise, error messages came on the infotainment system and dash and the car stopped moving. it basically stalled without stalling. i was nearly hit from behind but thankfully a quick thinking pedestrian noticed and flagged the car behind me to stop. it took 5 minutes to get the car to reset and move but meanwhile it kept saying i need to hit my brake pedal to shift gears. i was in drive and i attempted to use my brake, to park, reverse, etc and nothing happened. as i attempted to drive to turn my vehicle around and get home it kept telling me i needed to hit the brake pedal to shift the vehicle (an automatic). this is the second time this vehicle stalled in three weeks and it has already once been repaired.

Pedal accelerator not worked

2023 hyundai tucson hybrid blue issue: no power /accelerator response from slow speed. since 4/23- 9 instances involving this issue none resulted in crashes but did result in near misses and 2 cases coasting off the edge of the road to avoid being hit. 6 of the instances happened when attempting a left turn in traffic at an intersection. 3 of the instances involved when trying to enter a traffic circle(turning right). in all of the instances the vehicle was in eco mode. description of intersection instances: left turn with a blinking yellow arrow traffic light signal. i approached the intersection in the left turn lane slowed and was coasting forward. the vehicle had shift to ev mode. there was a gap in oncoming traffic and i hit the accelerator to cross. no response i pressed the accelerator to the floor and still no response. i lifted my foot off the accelerator and jammed it back down and had power but now the oncoming traffic was on me. fortunately, only one car that did hit their brakes and honk. this same scenario happened two more times at the same intersection as well as three other times in city traffic. no power when entering a traffic circle: i approached the traffic circle slowed and coasted forward waiting for the cars in the traffic circle to clear. there was a gap and i hit the gas and not power. pedal to the floor and no power. traffic was on me and i turned the steering wheel hard to the right and drove off the edge of the road to not get hit. i had three passengers with me at the time. the same scenario happened two more times- where i hit the gas no response but these times i let up off the accelerator all the way and then pressed it down and had full power. this resulted in about a 3-4 second delay from when i first realized i did not have power to having power. i did check 4 a recall and none found. however, i did notice another complaint citing the same issue w-hybrid on nhtsb site. but in error listed under reg tucson.

While driving the vehicle, the acceleration stopped and the car came to a halt right in the middle of the road. it acted like the battery drained and the gas did not kick in. the only fix was to shut it off and turn it back on. took it to dealership they said they couldn’t find anything wrong with it so we picked up the car and as soon as we drove off, it happened again. this could result in a fatality if it happens on a busy highway since there is no warning and it just stops working. took it back and the dealer says they can’t find anything wrong. although the receptionist said they are aware of this because they call it a “limp” problem because the car goes limp. the second time it happened we took a picture of the dash.

The contact owns a 2023 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while driving approximately 70 mph, the vehicle experienced phantom braking without another vehicle or object being nearby. the contact deactivated the system and was able to drive the vehicle safely. the contact stated that the failure recurred several times without warning. the vehicle was taken to the dealer who determined that the bracket supporting the sensor had detached, causing the system failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the contact deactivated the forward collision avoidance system. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure and opened a case. the contact was referred to the nhtsa hotline. the approximate failure mileage was 100.

The contact owns a 2023 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while driving at slow speeds and attempting to park the vehicle, the vehicle unintendedly accelerated before the contact was able to regain control of the vehicle. the following day while driving away from a stop light, the vehicle briefly shuddered and was unable to exceed 20 mph, prompting the contact to pull to the shoulder of the roadway. after restarting the vehicle, the vehicle returned to normal functionality. no warning lights were illuminated. the vehicle was taken to the dealer, who was unable to duplicate the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure but provided no assistance. the failure mileage was 3,000.

New 2023 hyundai tucson purchased 9/9/2023 from curry hyundai in cortland ny. on several instances of highway driving during the first 1,000 miles, on highways and at highway speeds, the forward collision avoidance system activated without any reason and applied the brakes at highway speed. this happened 6 or more times in only 6 or 7 highway trips during the 1,000 break-in period, and happened after the first visit to service for this problem, during which the dealer reset the system and sent me on my way, only to leave me driving a vehicle with the same, continuing defect. after the third service attempt, dealer and hyundai have been unable to repair the vehicle (now with the dealer for over a week). hyundai fails to even acknowledge its warranty or any other obligations to me, and all its communications show that it doesn't take these problems seriously, it has no standard process for dealing with them, and it offers basically nothing to the frustrated car owner. all its "customer care" department has done is check with the dealer, only to leave the problem with me for an unlimited timeframe.

Head lights, i cannot see pedestrians walking on cross walk when driving they head lights seem kind of dim

The car was purchased in june 2023. the left turn signal malfunctioned a minimum two times while operating the car. the last occurrence was in nov 2023.there was no symptom of the problem prior to its first appearance. the instrument panel confirmed a message that it should be checked. the car was taken in and inspected, december 2023. the service center did not find the problem.

The contact owns a 2023 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that on three occasions while the vehicle was in park(p), the vehicle failed to shift into the intended gear. the vehicle was towed to a dealer where it was diagnosed and determined that the rear-view sensor needed to be replaced. the vehicle was repaired. on another occasion, while at a car wash the rear hatch opened inadvertently. on another occasion, while driving approximately 65 mph, the emergency automatic braking display light was illuminated, and the vehicle slowed down inadvertently. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 500.

Car was completely dead. because it is a phev, wheels were locked and the vehicle needed special equipment to be towed. tow drivers (3 trucks eventually came) couldn't jump or charge the 12v battery. traction batteries had a good charge. locked wheels and sudden loss of all power makes this a safety issue.

On multiple occasions, my new hyundai tucson randomly deployed emergency brakes while traveling on highway. this created a dangerous condition as my vehicle started braking without reason which prompted vehicle following my vehicle to slam on their brakes.

Engine would not accelerate after stopping at a store. limped home at 15 mph. engine light came on a few miles from home. vehicle would not stay running the next morning and had to be towed to dealership. problem was an injector that the seal had failed on causing the engine to flood with gasoline. dealership stated they had seen multiple injector failures and replacement parts now have a different part number implying the injector has been redesigned. hyundai refused to replace the other injectors as they had not failed yet (they did replace the one that failed). i went ahead and paid to replace the other three. i live in montana. if i had lost acceleration going up a steep incline or in heavy traffic or car engine failed to stay on in remote area in sub zero temperatures it could have had detrimental consequences.

I was driving on the freeway and suddenly the auto emergency breaking auto system activated. however there were no cars ahead of me, the road was completely clear. i was driving within the speed limit. thankfully there were no cars behind me; otherwise this could've ended very badly. i pressed on the accelerator multiple times and the emergency breaking disengaged. since i was driving i did not want to get distracted by figuring out how to disable auto assist. but the next time i got into my car i am went into the dashboard system to turn off auto emergency braking and set it only to provide warning notifications. it was not that easy to do. i had to google it and look at multiple user forums to figure out how to turn off auto emergency breaking in the dashboard.

Indicator/turn light is very low under bumper. it is not visible to the vehicle behind and around. other driver think that i am not turning indicator light and they are upset and honking at me. poor design and it could cause an accident.

Forward collision alert came on and brakes initiated while i was behind a car that was turning into a driveway. the car in front of me was almost all the way into the driveway. after that i drove approximately 200 feet and the collision alert warning came on, no vehicles were around me. the next day, as i was driving, a car was waiting to exit an apartment driveway, the collision alert came on. no reason for it. i took my car in to hyundai on january 9, to have the oil changed and check the forward collision alert system. they told me they checked it, and could not find anything wrong, and recalibrated the system, and hoped that took care of it.

Driving down the freeway at normal speeds and my panoramic sunroof literally just exploded, raining tempered glass all over the interior of the vehicle while i was driving. no evidence that it was caused by any road debris, objects, nor falling objects from the sky. i wasn’t driving under a bridge and no cars/trucks were immediately next to me nor in front of me. traffic was flowing at normal speed. i wasn’t injured but was certainly startled and distracted for a moment to gauge what had just happened. the dealer is looking into it. claims it could have been caused by a rock. that seems to defy the law of physics and the glass actually look like it bowed from the inside out as if too much pressure was being applied to the glass. searches online seem to point to several class action lawsuits and plenty of reports of similar exploding sunroofs!

The contact owns a 2023 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that after placing the vehicle in park(p) and exiting the vehicle, the vehicle inadvertently rolled backwards. the contact stated that the vehicle was equipped with automatic emergency braking; however, the system failed to activate, resulting in damage to the vehicle. no warning lights were illuminated. the vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was opened. the failure mileage was 22,000.

This hyundai tucson was 3 months old when the transmission started to shudder and miss gears. i immediately took it in to ken garff hyundai and the service advisor drove the car and said nothing is wrong with the car and that the transmission needs to break in and sent me on my way. the tucson did it again while in traffic and the vehicle would not go and i had to put my hazard lights on and let the car struggle in changing gears to get it off the road. the car was towed in to peoria larry miller hyundai and this was documented by that dealership of the car shuddering and that they thought it was from my insurance plug in device. i explained that the car did it before the plug in. i removed the plug in device and the car continued to shudder. on [xxx] while backing out of my garage the car began to shudder while in reverse and i continued down the road while the transmission refused to change gears. it almost sounded aa if the car was in neutral and the car would on go no more than 3mp. i had the gas pedal floored and the car would not go. i reparked the car back at my home and called hyundai for a tow. the tow came and the tow driver stated that the seemed as if it is in neutral as he drove it up on to the tow truck. after getting the vehicle to the dealership i was told from the service advisor that this is an ongoing problem with hyundai's dual clutch transmission and this sounds like the problem. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)

The contact owns a 2023 honda tucson. the contact stated while driving 74 mph with the cruise control activated, the forward collision avoidance system activated, after which the automatic emergency braking activated, causing a rapid deceleration to the vehicle. the contact was able to regain control of the vehicle by lightly tapping the brake pedal, deactivating the system. the vehicle returned to normal functionality, but the failure became a regular occurrence. no warning lights were illuminated. the vehicle was taken to the dealer, who was unable to duplicate the failure but informed the contact that they would disable the forward collision avoidance system pending a diagnosis. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was opened. the failure mileage was 13,000.

The contact owns a 2023 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while driving approximately 40 mhp, the vehicle suddenly lost motive power and stalled. the vehicle was towed to the local dealer who diagnosed an engine misfire in cylinder #3. the cylinder #3 was replaced and the vehicle was repaired. the vehicle later experienced the same failure and was towed to the dealer who diagnosed that cylinder #4 was faulty. the cylinder #4 was replaced and the vehicle was repaired. the contact stated that the manufacturer had issued a tsb for the failure that included all four cylinders were faulty. the failure mileage was 15,000.

When pulling out of my driveway onto street, i lost acceleration. my vehicle would not go oer 35 mph and the rpms were revving up too 5000 without speed moving. i tried changing the drive mode to fix it, that did not help. i pulled over,s topped the car and restarted and all seemed normal. this has happened 2 other times since i bought the car. the other 2 times was while i was on the interstate the engine stopped engaging and i could not accelerate. both times the issue corrected itself by the time i could get safely out of traffic. this is a major accident concern as there is no warning before this happens.

The trim on the driver's side rear door flew off while traveling at approximately 65 miles per hour. luckly no one was behind me. i was able to retrieve the trim piece from the highway and it was determined to have been placed improperly on the car. the trim was not able to be replaced due to damage when it was run over by several vehicles. the warranty says it's covered but the trim has been on back order for a month.

Oil was leaking when we bought the car. by the time of the first service at the dealer (~7,500 miles), i had noticed the plastic underbody cover has some smeared oil that was making it past the plastic cover and fasteners. i had assumed they would catch any problems, but after the service they did not mention seeing anything, so i kept a closer eye on it. brought it back about 1 to 2 months later (fall 2023) after dripping started occurring (oil was leaking faster, and making it past plastic underbody cover). they sent me home after wiping it up and telling me that there was no leak (there was clearly a leak, and i even showed them photos i had taken). i watched it for 2 more weeks, then brought it back in after taking more photos and showing them again that there was definitely a leak. they confirmed leak (after seeing the car for the 3rd time). said it was the oil pan gasket, so they put a new gasket in. earlier in 2024, started noticing oil leak again. brought it back to the dealer's service department, and they said it's the same problem. they are planning to replace the oil pan this time to fix the issue, but have to wait on part. at this point, vehicle has been at the dealership's service department 4 separate times for the same issue that has not yet been resolved. brand new car leaking oil that they are struggling to fix.

The car suddenly and unintentionally accelerated. to avoid going through the back of my garage, i turned slightly and hit the frame of the garage. it continued to accelerate for a few seconds until i managed to stop it. i then backed up. again, the car suddenly unintentionally accelerated. i managed to stop it. i slowly drove it into the garage. i left it in the garage until having it towed to planet hyundai. i did not want to drive it in case it accelerated on the drive to planet hyundai. i was driving about 5 mph when i hit the frame of the garage. the car continued to accelerate. automatic emergency breaking and forward collision warning. the vehicle has been inspected by the manufacturer. the inspector or the dealer could not reproduce the problem. the vehicle can be inspected. the vehicle has been parked at planet hyundai from 1/29/2024 to 4/15/2024 i reported the incident to hyundai usa.i have not received any inspection reports.

While driving 35mph on a 3-lane street in the far left lane, a driver of a ford f-150 was in the center lane about two car lengths ahead, decided to make a right turn onto a residential street (as if he were driving a semi). as i got closer, the forward collision warning suddenly alerted and immediately initiated emergency braking system causing all 3 passengers to be thrown forward. i hit the steering wheel before seat belt caught me. i was not even within distance and he was turning in opposite direction of my lane. there also seems to be sensitivity issues with lane keeping feature as in phoenix, there are never ending freeway construction with make-shift lanes not always marked well. on several occasions the steering wheel was jerked out of my hands because it couldn’t detect the lanes any longer. it has caused me to avoid freeways all together and has made me miss the exit off the freeway twice now. i thought this feature only activated during active cruise control, but apparently it does it regardless. now i’m beginning to have problems with display going out at the worst times. i will be taking my tucson to a dealer to have them deactivate both systems & advise of display. i shouldn’t have to pay for this. i’ll take over the driving, thank you very much!

While driving my new tucson, the emergency brake randomly activated bringing the car to a jarring stop. very scary and its happened twice now. dealer won't help as its intermittent so very frustrating.

The contact owns a 2023 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the panoramic sunroof exploded without impact. the contact stated that the cloth liner was in place and kept the glass from entering the cabin of the vehicle. no warning lights were illuminated. the contact also stated that there was a class action lawsuit related to the failure. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 23,027.

The abs, ! brake and auto hold lights activated. i took in into the hyundai joplin, mo dealership on may 2, 2024. they could not find any thrown codes and suggested it was most likely the "ieb module" which they replaced and after doing so, the warning lights remained activated. as of may 22, 2024, they are ordering a new ieb module to install (backordered into june). this seems oddly similar to previous abs and brake problems of earlier models and makes me feel uneasy with the safety of this vehicle should they ever get it remedied.

After stopped at a red light, the light turned green and the car slipped into neutral when stepping on the gas pedal. the gear was not shifted and the controls still displayed “d” both on the dashboard and the gear selector. this happened twice 5 days apart from each other. this car has an automatic transmission and the automatic engine shut off was on.

I was seated in the front passenger seat while the car was parked. i swatted a mosquito on the top of the windshield, just right of the rearview mirror/camera area. i did not use much force. the windshield cracked from the impact. the car is not available for inspection. the crack became considerably larger as we drove the vehicle. the vehicle has not been inspected by anyone yet, but will be taken for repair to an auto glass shop recommended by our insurer. there was no warning before the incident, and the windshield seemed to be in perfect condition. i called hyundai to see if this was covered by the warranty, but they said no. i was shocked that such a small impact cracked the windshield - this seems like a defect to me

Upon closing the driver’s side door, the panoramic sunroof exploded. the car is currently at the dealership where it was purchased. it is available for inspection. safety……any occupants within the vehicle would have been exposed to the shards of glass if the sunshade was open! the dealer stated that hyundai has approved the replacement of the exploded sunroof glass and the cleaning of the glass remnants inside the car. the was no warning or symptoms prior to this incident. we requested a loaner vehicle but as of today we have not received one. completion date stated 1 week..order and installation. the rounded upwards photo of the sunroof glass, the stress fractures at the front and rear of the glass as well as the inward bending of the front sunroof corners gives every indication of an upward movement of the glass from within the car. it was not damaged by any objects external to the vehicle. there are many similar incidents cited on the internet

The contact owns a 2023 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving 20 mph approaching a red traffic light and depressing the brake pedal, the vehicle failed to stop as needed. the contact steered the vehicle on a patch of grass nearby and shifted into neutral(n) to stop the vehicle. there were no warning lights illuminated. the battery was detached and reconnected to reset the vehicle. the contact was able to drive the vehicle at low speeds. the dealer was contacted and informed of the failure. the dealer stated that without warning lights being illuminated they would not be able to diagnose the vehicle to determine the cause of the failure. the vehicle had not been taken to the dealer to be diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 22,600.

The contact owned a 2023 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while his mother was driving at an undisclosed speed, she heard an abnormal sound emanating from an unknown location of the vehicle, after which the vehicle began to accelerate on its own. the driver attempted to stop the vehicle, but the brake pedal pulsated and failed to slow the vehicle, resulting in the driver briefly losing control of the vehicle and only coming to a complete stop after colliding with a utility pole. both the driver and passenger side air bags deployed. no warning lights were illuminated. the vehicle was towed to a tow yard and deemed a total loss by the contact's insurance provider. a police report was filed, and injuries were reported. the driver and passenger were both transported to an area hospital by emt and treated for injuries to the chest sustained from the air bags. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 10,000.

Failure to accelerate. while entering route 95 from on ramp traveling at about 40 miles the car failed to accelerate. gas pedal revved engine but failed to accelerate and slowed. safety of myself and others in grave risk as i was trying to merge into traffic that was traveling at 65 miles per hour. i contacted dealer and was told appointment was not available for weeks and they never heard of the problem. i will bring auto into dealership and leave it with them as it is clearly unsafe to drive. no warning light on dash or engine light problem was present.

The rear turn signals on the 2023 hyundai tucson are on the rear bumper. they are never seen by any car or truck sitting behind you or next to you in your blindspot. i believe the 2022 & the 2024 also have this issue, and there are numerous complaints about it online, especially on reddit and auto forums. they are dangerous. cars too close behind you or next to you in your blindspot, will never see your signal, especially the larger cars & trucks or tall autos such as buses, garbage trucks, etc. here is one of many articles & videos about this issue: [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)

On [xxx] around [xxx] pm two barnes county sheriff’s deputies responded to a reckless driving complaint. the reckless driving complaint started on [xxx] and later crashed around [xxx] near [xxx]. barnes county sheriff randy mcclaflin said the reporting person, a [xxx] female, was also the driver of the reckless vehicle, a 2023 white hyundai tucson. of fargo contacted the barnes county dispatch center and reported her gas pedal was stuck and the vehicle she was driving was traveling at speeds of over 90 miles per hour. made multiple attempts to shut the vehicle off, place it in neutral/park and brake however, those attempts failed. one barnes county sheriff’s deputy was able to position his patrol vehicle in front of vehicle while the other barnes county sheriff’s deputy was able to position her patrol vehicle behind both deputies communicated with through a barnes county dispatcher while they attempted to disable vehicle. at one-point was able to slow her vehicle enough that she decided she could enter the median and use the cable barriers to stop the runaway vehicle before it struck a slow-moving vehicle ahead of the lead deputy. entered the median and struck the cable barrier with the side of her vehicle. the vehicle became disabled. was uninjured and was taken to mercy hospital by sheriff’s deputies. the north dakota highway patrol will be investigating the crash. sheriff mcclaflin said kept as calm as can be expected and due to her quick thinking, she was able to avoid causing any injuries to others on the roadway. sheriff mcclaflin would also like to remind everyone to please watch for emergency lighting while traveling on roadways information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)

2023 tuscon limited gas - multiple instances on vehicle forward collision warning system activating with alarms noted but no activation of emergency braking while sitting at stop light with cars in front and back that are not moving. radio system going to show surround view and in some cases only front view even though at stop light. biggest issue this weekend while taking a curve while merging onto another freeway the emergency braking system activated for no reason. first time occurrence. no one beside me or in front of me for some distance but did have someone behind me. it was a quick activation of the brakes and then release, i would say 1-2 second engagement. if had been longer and brought me to stop would of been an accident. i am taking the car to westlake hyundai to investigate this week and will report. also having dealer investigate premature driver seat excessive wear. car has 15.5k miles on it. i am concerned as this car is exhibiting same issues that my wife's 2018 tuscon had that ended-up being successfully lemon lawed. i am also seeing way to many similar complaints and hyundai needs to figure out what is going on with their emergency front collision sensing system and issue a fix or recall.

On tuesday august 6th 2024 car was put in the shop for an automatic dtc notification/check engine light. our car is less than a year old with less than 10,000 miles on it. our car was in the shop for a full 5 days and was given to us on the evening of monday august 12th with assurances that it was safe to drive. while in the shop, our car grounding pump and numerous fuses were replaced. on friday august 16th, we received a jarring "check hyundai system. stop safely." message while driving a short distance. we were given roughly 5-10 seconds before the car braked and stopped, causing us to almost be rear ended from the car behind us. this put not only me and my passenger's safety at risk, but the safety of the cars nearby us at that time, at risk. we shudder at the thought of what could have happened if we were traveling on a highway or congested roadway. there were no warning lamps or symptoms that would have suggested this would happen. we received a tow to the shop early morning of august 17th and to date, the car remains in the shop. we are confident that the car will not pass it's upcoming inspection and have requested that the service dealership perform an inspection before they attempt to give it back to us. i feel strongly that we are not safe driving this vehicle. our local hyundai service dealership employees have implied that they feel a recall of this car is forthcoming because they have begun to identify this issue in many cars. given hyundai's recent track record with recalls, i am extremely concerned for my safety.

Horn stopped working even the fuse is fine still horn not working . not panic alarm sound either.

Attempted to make right turn onto busy road. tried to accelerate to move with the traffic, when the car would not go any faster then 20mph. could hear cars braking behind me. pulled over to the side. message appeared on speedometer, " limit 20mph" with green speedometer. shut the car off tried to find problem in the manual. didnt find anything. turned car back on, it ran normal. took it to hyundai, fort myers, appointment, on 08/28/24. they diagnosed it as : "driver assist speed setting was turned on inside settings. turned off setting, performed a dtc code scanning with no dtcs in any system. attached stui photos, performed a 2 mile test drive with no further issues". i can only hope that the problem is solved. i do not recall turning on anything like, and wouldn't know how to, but i guess it is possible. wanted to notify the nhtsa, in case there are other owners experiencing the same issue. thank you for concern

Automatic emergency braking deployed without any external threat. i was driving 55 mph on the freeway and the automatic emergency braking engaged. the dash lights flashes, there was an audible alarm and the car braked. there was no danger in front of the vehicle and this action put me at risk of being hit from the rear by the car behind me. my safety was put at risk as my acceleration was greatly diminished compared to the traffic around me. there was no warning of the problem prior to the failure. it has not been confirmed by the dealer.

The horn stopped working. i’m told by hyundai service technician this is fairly common issue due to the location of the horns they are susceptible to “shorting out”

Our 2023 hyundai tucson hybrid developed an issue with the forward radar. at speed, the car produces a warning ding and then a warning message is displayed stating, "critical forward safety functions are limited. radar blocked." if the adaptive cruise control is engaged at the time of the warning, it immediately disengages, forcing the driver to quickly respond. if there is a vehicle in the adjacent lane to the right, the automatic braking may at times activate. it happens rain or shine, in good or inclement weather. we have cleaned the areas of the sensors without effect. one dealership has evaluated the vehicle twice and a second dealership once but we have been informed that there was no defect identified. i believe this issue to be a serious safety defect.

I purchased the car in december of 2022 and within the first few months, it would shut down on the interstate. after a few minutes, it would crank back up and be fine. i immediately took it to the dealership (authorized hyundai dealer) and they could not find an issue. a couple months later, it did it again. again, i took it to the dealer, they didn't find anything, and i took it home. after a year, it stopped and would not start back up for a long time. i was stranded at a gas station for over an hour. i finally got it to crank, took it in, and they said they fixed a faulty fuel injector. now it's october 2024 and it is back at the dealer because last week it left me stranded on the side of the interstate at night for a few hours. again, they are replacing 2 fuel injectors.

This vehicle has been taken in on four separate occasions now to have know faulty fuel injectors replaced. all dealer service people acknowledge this is a know defect, all tow truck drivers have also confirmed the same, as well as thousands of people online. huandai has not issued a recall. when the injectors go out, the car dies and will not accelerate and then leaves me stranded on the side of the road. this happens with little to no warning so is extremely dangerous. do people have to die to make this a safety recall?

I was driving on a highway at 75 mph, on a clear day, with perfect visibility and driving conditions and my automatic emergency braking engaged. i was on cruise control with no one in front of me for approximately half a mile. there were cars behind me, so i had to swerve into another lane to avoid being rear ended. there was a sequence of beeps. if there were warning lights or messages, i was too busy dodging to see them. there may have been a squiggly line that came up, but i am unsure.

Automatic transmission started malfunctioning at about 23,600 miles. seemed unable to shift into higher gears and made strange noise. no warning lamps, signs, or malfunction codes appeared. dealer confirmed bearing noise from transmission and said new transmission needed. new transmission installed 10/11/24 under warranty.

While traveling out of town, our 2023 tuscon hev with 31,000k started chugging/hesitating during acceleration. this chugging continued to worsen, so we took it to a hyundai dealership to diagnose. we were told that fuel injector #3 was misfiring, and, as they did not have the parts in stock, that it would be safe to make the 5 hour drive back home to service the vehicle. during the first 4 hours of the drive the chugging/hesitating worsened, several times suddenly losing power and speed dropping from 70 or so mpg, to 40 mpg and lower, creating extremely harrowing and dangerous conditions from the higher speed drivers behind and around us on the highway. during the last hour of the drive, the vehicle started making a screeching sound, and emitting a burning smell, and chugging so convulsively that we made an emergency detour to drop it at the closest hyundai dealership. the second dealership said that they could not use the 1st dealerships diagnosis, and that they would need to do their own assessment. almost 2 weeks later, we were informed that the vehicle was fixed and that issue was a cracked tensioner belt and that likely is what set off the other code(s), including the fuel injector code. upon picking up the vehicle we discovered that the same chugging issue was still occurring and returned it to dealership #2. they ran another diagnostic and determined that fuel injector #3 needed to be replaced-the issue that dealership #1 originally diagnosed. we were also told that, the problem is with the outsourced company that makes the fuel injectors, and that this is a recurring issue with the other injectors. unfortunately, hyundai has yet to take responsibility and save its customers a lot of inconvenience and safety concerns, by allowing dealerships to go ahead and replace all of the fuel injectors at once when the 1st one goes bad.

(1) [xxx] (14,568 mi): the vehicle had been running normally. my wife was about to switch lanes at an intersection when the vehicle started to shake and vibrate. the entire dashboard lit up and the vehicle quickly died. she tried restarting it and the engine wouldn’t turn over. anytime there was an attempt to restart, there was a potent odor of gasoline. the car died in the middle of the road. it would sort of start but then it wouldn't move and would just shake and smell of gas. after many minutes of trying to start the vehicle, barely got power but was able to pull to side of road around other cars. hyundai app reported codes: p030300 and p217800. had car towed to local dealer. picked the car up and next day spoke to the service manager who indicated there was a 20%-25% chance this would reoccur. he said there was nothing he could do as hyundai would only cover the cost for the existing issue. the paperwork from the dealer shows it was a p0303 for cylinder 3 misfire and system too rich caused by leaking fuel injector for cylinder 3 (low pressure). [xxx] (14,702 mi) i was driving the car, in middle of an intersection and the vehicle started to vibrate and all lights on dash lit up (check engine, battery, etc.) and smell of gasoline. car hesitated and wouldn't move. died in intersection. had to have 2 people help push me as i was dead in middle of road with people beeping and passing me. got to side of road and couldn't get vehicle to start. no error codes on app this time, but all symptoms were exactly the same. called for tow, different dealership due to location. dealership indicated they would return it to us safe, but because of hyundai policies, they can only work on the affected items. this is well documented by hyundai owners of this problem and going by what the service manager of the first location told me, this is common to spread to other injectors. this is unsafe! twice in middle of intersections! two more injectors! someone is going to get hurt! information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)

As i was (very slowly) pulling into a parking place at a park near my home and i was braking to come to a full stop, the car suddenly lurched forward, jumped the parking place barrier, and hit a tree. the front end of the car was badly damaged and the airbag opened. i sustained injuries to my left hand and my chest, though nothing was broken. the car was towed to a body shop, where it has been declared not reparable. photos of the car at the scene are attached. this accident seems to be consistent with reports/recalls of the hyundai elantra of unintended acceleration when releasing the brake. we did talk to police shortly after the accident but we are unsure if they filed a report.

While driving my 2023 hyundai tucson phev with limited trim the emergency braking function activated for no reason at all. this has happened 5 times during the last 9 months and each time it was about the same conditions. road was dry my speed was from 55 to 75 mph it was during daytime hours and no cars were in front of me or on either side of me. 3 of the times there was a car behind me that had to check up i guess because my brake lights came on. i reported the problem to the dealer and was told no other owner has ever reported than problem. instead of preventing an accident the activation of the emergency braking system in this situation could have caused an accident with the cars around me reacting to my sudden braking at high-speed resulting in a chain reaction.

My vehicle has been in for service 4 times for the front brake rotors warping. the dealer/manufacturer is not able to fix nor diagnose the root cause of the issue. they have replaced the rotors twice and turned/resurfaced the rotors twice - all in 26000 miles. the dealer has all but given up on the issue - and has referred me to hyundai customer care (corporate) where i have logged a case. in my discussions with the dealer service manager - he stated there are "half a dozen" other cars he is aware of with similar issues. in online hyundai owners forums this is also a "known" issue that apparently hyundai either chooses not to fix or cannot determine how to fix.

I am on my 3rd fuel injector repair in less than 2 years. asked if they could replace them all and was told they can only replace what is broken. my car was purchased brand new and still under warranty . each time the car was towed to 3 different dealers, i have not received a loaner or a rental car voucher. i have been without my car for upwards of over a week. so what exactly is the warranty good for? i have a friend who has a 2106 acura ilx and to this day when it needs to be repaired, he gets a loaner and they pick the car up from his home. this is so disappointing to have purchased a 2023 car in dec of 2022 with 13 miles on it and have had it in the shop 3 times as of feb 2025

I was driving straight when a vehicle coming from the opposite direction made a left turn without yielding, crossing into my lane. as a result, my vehicle collided with the other car at full speed. however, the airbag in my steering wheel did not deploy upon impact, as it should have. my injuries have been significantly more severe than they would have been had the airbag functioned properly. i reported this issue to the vehicle manufacturer, and they opened a case and conducted an inspection. during their inspection, they found that the airbag had since deployed. however, my vehicle was transported off a steep hill and moved to multiple lots before the inspection, any of which could have triggered a delayed deployment. despite this, the manufacturer has refused to accept liability. because the airbag failed to deploy at the time of impact, there was no buffer between me and the steering wheel. this resulted in excessive force against my chest from the seatbelt and direct impact with the steering wheel, leading to more severe injuries. there were no warning lights on in the vehicle before the crash, nor were there any recalls related to this issue at the time of the incident.

The car turned off while i was driving. everything went black. i was able to coast to the side of the road.

This is the second time the vehicle has lost power and either had the engine die or stopped producing enough power to drive safely. the first time, the engine lost power to the put of not being able to maintain speed on a very busy highway during rush hour, forcing me to pull to the nearest side (left side of road) that had a narrow shoulder next to fastest vehicles. the most recent event (3/25/2025) took place in a parking lot. engine was very rough at idle and when placed in reverse, it died. could not restart for ~10 minutes, after which time the problem persisted. in both instances a tow truck had to take vehicle to dealership. in both cases the dealer indicated it was the fuel injectors causing the issues. no check engines lights or other dashboard light came on except for an indication to start the vehicle in neutral. i used the companies app for the vehicle and no error codes came up. this issue resulted in no damage to persons or property, but could have if i wasn't next to shoulder in the first incident.
