2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON Complaints

LATCHING/LOCKING SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK ON THE PASSENGER FRONT, AND BOTH REAR DOORS. UNABLE TO OPEN THE BACK DOORS FROM THE INSIDE OR OUTSIDE. THE PASSENGER FRONT DOOR WILL OPEN FROM THE INSIDE BUT MUST BE PULLED 3 TIMES TO OPEN FROM THE OUTSIDE. ONCE THE DOOR HAS BEEN OPENED INITIALLY IT WILL CLOSE AND OPEN WITHOUT PROBLEM. AFTER THE LOCK HAS BEEN ENGAGED AND UNLOCKED AGAIN, THE DOOR HANDLE ON THE PASSENGER FRONT MUST BE PULLED 3 TIMES IN ORDER TO OPEN.

I HAD BEEN A PROBLEM WITH MY TWO BACK DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR WITH MY CAR. I CANNO OPEN MY CAR FROM INSIDE OR OUTSIDE.

THE CAR JUMPS WHEN MOVING OFF FROM A STOP. IN SOME CASES THE CAR STOPS MOVING AHEAD AND IT FEELS LIKE THE CAR IS NOT IN GEAR. THE CAR THEN TRANSMISSION REENGAGES AND THE CAR ACCELERATES HOPPING SOME TIMES. WHEN YOU STOP AGAIN THIS HAPPENS AGAIN BUT AT THE NEXT STOP IT MIGHT NOT HAPPEN.

I GO TO START MY CAR IN THE MORNING AND IT IS MAKING A LOUD TAPPING NOISE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY IN MY DRIVEWAY. BUT AS IT WARMED UP IT WENT AWAY SO I CONTINUED TO DRIVE TO WORK IT WAS FINE ALL DAY BUT I FIGURED I WOULD LET THE DEALERSHIP TAKE A LOOK AT IT SINCE IT'S WASNT A PLEASANT NOISE. I DROP THE VEHICLE OFF AND THEY SAID THE OIL IS EXTREMELY LOW (I'VE ONLY HAD THIS CAR FOR ABOUT A MONTH) I HAD BOUGHT IT FROM A DEALERSHIP SO I ASSUMES ALL THE FLUIDS WOULD BE FINE UNTIL I NEEDED AN OIL CHANGE. WELL THEY CONTINUED WITH THE OIL CHANGE AND FOUND METAL SHAVINGS IN THE OIL PAN THEY THEN DROPPED THE OIL PAN AND FOUND METAL CHUNKS. THEY TOLD ME THE VEHICLE IS STILL UNDER THE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY AND THAT THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I THEN ASKED AROUND ABOUT WHY A VEHICLE THIS NEW WOULD NEED THE ENGINE REPLACED AND THEY SAID THAT HYUNDAI HAS A RECALL OUT FOR THOSE ENGINES THAT THEY TEND TO FAIL BUT I CAN NOT FIND ANYWHERE THAT MY VEHICLE HAS A RECALL. THIS HAS BEEN THE MOST INCONVENIENT PROCESS THE DEALERSHIP HAS HAD MY CAR FOR ABOUT A MONTH AND DO NOT EVEN HAVE A ETA FOR WHEN THE ENGINE WILL COME IN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED; HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESPOND. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LITHIA HYUNDAI OF FRESNO (LOCATED AT 5590 N BLACKSTONE AVE, FRESNO, CA 93710, (559) 899-3257) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO THE ECOSHIFT DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V628000 (POWER TRAIN, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM); HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.

BACK DRIVER PASSENGER DOOR IS NOT OPENING FROM INSIDE OR OUTSIDE. IT'S UNLOCKED AND DON'T SEEM TO HAVE ISSUES WITH THE LOCK AND UNLOCK BUTTON. ALL OTHER DOORS WORK. I JUST USED THE DOOR EARLIER TODAY WITH NO ISSUES AND NEVER HAD ANY ISSUES UNTIL THIS EVENING. NO VISUAL OBJECTS TO BE BLOCKING THE DOOR. WENT ONLINE TO CHECK FOR RECALL AND SEEMS MANY OWNERS ARE HAVING SAME ISSUES.

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE NEW IN 2016. UNTIL NOW, THE ONLY ISSUE HAS BEEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP, LIKE EVERYONE ELSE. NOW, THE DOORS ARE NOT OPERATING PROPERLY. IN MARCH 2019, THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR STOPPED OPENING FROM THE OUTSIDE. IT WOULD UNLOCK/LOCK, BUT THE OUTSIDE HANDLE WOULD NOT OPERATE AND OPEN THE DOOR THE INSIDE HANDLE DID OPERATE. HYUNDAI REPAIRED/REPLACED THE PART UNDER MY EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR $50. IN APRIL 2019, THE BACK PASSENGER DOOR FAILED. THIS TIME IT WOULD NOT OPERATE FROM THE INSIDE OR OUTSIDE. THE DEALER TRIED TO MAKE ME WAIT WKS FROM AN APPT, BUT THIS IS A REAL SAFETY ISSUE WITH PASSENGERS/CHILDREN IN THE BACK SEAT. WHAT IF THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT? I INQUIRED ABOUT RECALLS, ESPECIALLY WITH PASSENGERS NOT BEING ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE CAR, BUT WAS SHUT DOWN BY THE MECHANIC. A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH SUGGESTS I'M NOT THE ONLY PERSON WITH THIS ISSUE.

SEVERE HESITATION ON ACCELERATION. JERKY MOTION WHEN SLOW ROLLING. CANNOT BACK UP STEEP HILLS.

2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARD TO VEHICLE ENGINE FAILURE. *AS *TR

'TAKATA RECALL' BOTH BACK DOORS WILL NOT OPEN FROM THE INSIDE NOR BE OUTSIDE. INITIALLY STARTED WITH THE BACK DRIVERS SIDE DOOR AND WITHIN 2 WEEKS THE BACK PASSENGER DOOR WPULD NOT OPEN EITHER. WHEN I I HIT THE LOCK AND UNLOCK BUTTON FROM INSIDE THE CAR AND ON MY KEY FOB THE LOCKS MOVE, THEREFORE IT IS NOT AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE I FOUND THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE AND APPARENTLY THE 'CLIP' FALLS OF INSIDE THE DOOR PANEL THEREFORE THE DOOR WILL NOT OPEN. THIS IS TRULY A SAFETY ISSUE, SINCE IF MY CAR WERE TO CATCH ON FIRE OR WERE IN AN ACCIDENT AND I HAD A PASSENGERS IN THE BACKSEAT THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE! NOR AM I ABLE TO GET MY CHILD IN AND OUT OF THE BACKSEAT WITH THE CAR SEAT.
