2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON Complaints

I HAD TO REPLACE THE THROTTLE BODY AND REAR SHOCK AT APPROXIMATELY UNDER 2000 MILES. IT HESITATES BADLY. IT DECELERATES AS I PRESS DOWN ON THE ACCELERATOR. IT HAD LOW COOLANT BEFORE A LONG TRIP SO I FILLED IT UP AS IT ADVISED. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS HOT THE COOLANT WAS APPROXIMATELY 1/2 INCH TO 1 INCH BELOW THE MINIMUM FILL LINE. AFTER MY TRIP I TOOK IT TO THE CERTIFIED HYUNDAI DEALER SERVICE CENTER FOR TIRE ROTATION AND OIL CHANGE AND THEY ADVISED THE COOLANT WAS LOW AGAIN, BUT THAT THERE ARE NO LEAKS. I TOLD THEM I JUST FILLED IT UP AND SO THEY ARE CHECKING AGAIN FOR LEAKS. IT SLAMMED INTO GEAR AS I WAS GOING ON AN OFF RAMP FROM AN INTERSTATE. IT JERKED AND SHIMMIED LIKE IT WAS GOING TO DIE WHEN I WAS AT A STOPLIGHT. IT IS BRAND NEW. IT SHOULD NOT BE HAVING SO MANY ISSUES AND NO ONE WILL HELP ME WITH IT I JUST KEEP HEARING "THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT, IT IS JUST THE WAY HYUNDAI DESIGNED THE VEHICLE." HYUNDAI NEEDS TO WORK ON THIS. THERE SHOULD BE MULTIPLE RECALLS ON THIS VEHICLE. IT HAS A POPPING SOUND EVERY TIME I REACH 20 MPH AFTER TAKING IT OUT OF PARK. IT HAS A RATTLE IN THE FRAME/REAR PASSENGER DOOR AREA. NO PLACE CAN FIX THESE SOUNDS. I JUST HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT ALL. IT HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT A NIGHTMARE SINCE PURCHASED IN NOVEMBER 2015. THIS REALLY NEEDS MULTIPLE RECALLS ON IT. I JUST GOT AN EMAIL ABOUT A HOOD LATCH RECALL TOO. NOT EVEN FROM HYUNDAI... FROM CAR FAX. HYUNDAI DID NOT CONTACT CONSUMERS REGARDING THE HOOD LATCH RECALL. THEY SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO. THE DEALER DID NOT CONTACT ME ABOUT IT EITHER. THE DEALER, BOB POYNTER COLUMBUS, IN REFUSES TO SERVICE MY BRAND NEW VEHICLE UNDER WARRANTY AND THEY WILL NOT SPEAK WITH ME AT ALL. THEY WILL NOT TELL ME WHERE THEY OBTAINED MY VEHICLE FROM AS A DEALER TRADE EITHER.

HYUNDAI TUCSON 2016,1300 MILES. IN HEAVY STOP AND GO TRAFFIC ON GW BRIDGE, TRANSMISSION OVERHEATING WARNING (PULL OVER SAFELY) CAR WOULD NOT MOVE, AFTER 5 HARROWING MINUTES WAS ABLE TO DRIVE, TAKEN TO DEALER, "NEVER HEARD OF THIS BEFORE" COULD NOT FIX BECAUSE NOTHING WRONG. SO MUCH FOR ,100000 MILE WARRANTY. HAVE SINCE DISCOVERED SOMEONE ELSE WENT TO SAME DEALERSHIP AFTER I DID, THE MANAGER,BARRY, SAID"I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS". SO FAR NO ONE HAS BEEN HURT BUT IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME. BY THE WAY, ON MY REPAIR RECEIPT THERE WAS A SUGGESTION THAT I LEARN TO DRIVE PROPERLY!!!!!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE FAILURE RECURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT FOUND. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,000.

I PULLED INTO THE DRIVE THRU LINE AT BANK BEHIND ANOTHER VEHICLE. I PLACED THE TUCSON INTO PARK, BUT LEFT THE ENGINE RUNNING WHILE THE PERSON IN FRONT OF ME PROCESSED THEIR TRANSACTION. WHEN IT WAS MY TURN I MOVED THE VEHICLE INTO PARK AND PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL TO MOVE FORWARD BUT THE VEHICLE DID NOT MOVE. THE RPMS MOVED INTO THE 3000 AND 4000 RANGE BUT THE CAR DID NOT MOVE. EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS NOT ON. VEHICLE WAS IN DRIVE. NO ERRORS OR WARNING LIGHTS ON DASHBOARD. I MOVED THE VEHICLE INTO AND OUT OF PARK AND NEUTRAL SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE THE TRANSMISSION ENGAGED AND ALLOWED ME TO EASE FORWARD. I PLACED THE CAR BACK INTO PARK WHILE MY TRANSACTION WAS PROCESSED. AFTER MY TRANSACTION WAS COMPLETE I PLACED THE VEHICLE BACK INTO DRIVE AND ATTEMPTED TO PULL FORWARD. ONCE AGAIN HIGH RPMS AND ENGINE REVVING VERY LOUDLY BUT NOT MOVING ANYWHERE. I TRIED THE SHIFTING GEARS TRICK SEVERAL TIMES AND IT STILL DID NOT WORK. THE DRIVE THRU LANE HAD TO BE SHUT DOWN WHILE I WAS TRYING TO GET MY VEHICLE TO MOVE. AFTER TURNING IT OFF AND BACK ON A FEW TIMES IT FINALLY WORKED AND I WAS ABLE TO GET INTO A PARKING SPOT. I CALLED MY HUSBAND. HE ARRIVED APPROXIMATELY 30 MINUTES LATER. HE STARTED THE VEHICLE AND DROVE AROUND THE PARKING LOT. HE REPORTED THAT WHEN THE VEHICLE CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP (THOUGH STILL IN DRIVE) HE WOULD THEN ATTEMPT TO ACCELERATE AND THE ENGINE WOULD REV TO HIGH RPMS FOR 3-10 SECONDS BEFORE FINALLY ENGAGING AND CAUSING A QUICK JERKY JACK RABBIT START. EVEN WITH THE DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION, THE PREVIOUS 7,400 MILES DRIVEN IT WOULD ONLY REV TO APPROX 1200 RPMS PRIOR TO ACCELERATING. DECIDED TO TAKE TO DEALERSHIP. CAR TURNED OFF WHILE REMOVING ITEMS. WHEN TURNED BACK ON AND DRIVING TO DEALERSHIP PROBLEM DID NOT OCCUR. DEALERSHIP KEPT VEHICLE FROM FRIDAY AFTERNOON TO MONDAY. THEY STATED THEY WERE UNABLE TO RECREATE AND THAT THERE WERE NO ERROR CODES IN THE COMPUTER.

THE FIRST TIME I WAS AT A RED LIGHT, WHEN IT TURNED GREEN AND I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR THE CAR WOULD REV BUT NOT MOVE. TRIED A FEW TIME THEN HAD TO GO INTO PARK AND DRIVE AGAIN AND THEN IT WORKED. THE SECOND TIME I WAS BACKING UP FROM A PARKING SPACE AND REVVED THE MOTOR 6 TIMES AND THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE. HAD TO PUT IN PARK AND THEN IN REVERSE. IT MOVED VERY SLOWLY AND WAS REVVING BECAUSE I HAD TO PUSH ON THE ACCELERATOR MORE THAN I WANTED . I WAS AFRAID BOTH TIMES THE CAR WOULD SHOOT FORWARD (OR BACKWARD THE SECOND TIME). THE SHIFTING IS ALSO STRANGE IN THE CAR, IT JERKS FORWARD WHEN YOU PRESS ON THE ACCELERATOR BECAUSE IT STARTS SO SLOWLY AND THEN SEEMS TO JUMP INTO GEAR.

TUCSON WITH 4139 MILES, CAME TO A TRAFFIC LIGHT, STOPPED, WENT TO MOVE, TACH CLIMBED TO 6 GRAND AND TUCSON WOULD NOT MOVE. SHIFTED FROM DRIVE TO PARK A FEW TIMES AND THE TRANSMISSION FINALLY ENGAGED AND THE TUCSON PROCEEDED FORWARD IN A JERKY MOTION BUY FINALLY SMOOTHED OUT. WENT ANOTHER 600+ MILES WITHOUT IT OCCURRING AGAIN. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAM ON AND NO DIAGNOSTIC CODES THROWN. I CONTACTED HYUNDIA C/C BY EMAIL EXPLAINING THE ISSUE WHICH FROM RESEARCHING, FOUND THAT IT IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. THIS IS S SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED ASAP.

"TAKATA RECALL" -THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT ENGAGE AT THE PROPER TIMES. HEADRESTS MAKE YOUR HEAD BEND SO FAR FOWARD YOUR CHIN IS ALMOST TOUCHING YOUR CHEST.

THIS CAR NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND THE TRANSMITTING REPLACED. IT IS DANGEROUS. FIRST IT WAS THE SHUDDER AND ERRATIC HESITATION STARTING OUT IN 1ST GEAR. LIKE YOU HAVE A CHOICE WHAT GEAR YOU START IN. SO IT'S CRAZY FRUSTRATING. NOW IT HAS ADVANCED TO NOT ENGAGING 1ST GEAR FROM TIME TO TIME. TWICE WHILE IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSECTION. THEN ONCE ENGAGED, THE CAR BURNED RUBBER THROUGH A LEFT TURN TO EXIT THE INTERSECTION. I'M LUCKY TO HAVE NOT HAD AN ACCIDENT OR RAN ANYONE OVER INT HE PROCESS. EVERY TIME I BRING IT TO THE DEALER, THEY TALK TO ME LIKE IT IS THE DESIGN OF THE DUEL CLUTCH AND NOTHING I CAN DO SINCE IT WAS DESIGNED THAT WAY... WHAT?!! I'M TAKING A MORE ACTIVE APPROACH NOW TO KEEP MYSELF OR SOMEONE IN MY FAMILY FROM DYING AS A RESULT OF THIS PROBLEM THAT HYUNDAI IS CLEARLY REFUSING TO ADMIT TO. THERE IS MANY ACCOUNTS POSTED ON THE INTERNET EXACTLY THE SAME AS MINE. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THE DON'T READ INTERNET PROPAGANDA.. I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE THIS COMPANY EXISTS IN AMERICA. AND FYI - THE CAR I HAD 10 YEARS PRIOR WAS THE 2006 HYUNDAI TUCSON. THEY REBUILD THE 2016 AND THIS IS WHAT I GET FOR MY LOYALTY.

05/06/2016 @ 1600 COND-RAINY. WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR AND THE SUV DID NOT MOVE. THE ENGINE REVVED BUT THE SUV DID NOT GO FORWARD. IT SLOWLY ENGAGED AND LURCHED FORWARD AFTER APPROX 3-5 SECONDS. 5/19/2016 @ 1800 COND-RAIN /NOT DRIVEN IN APPROX 4 DAYS. LESS THAN A MILE FROM START AND HAD BEEN DRIVING FOR APPROX 3-5 MINS-WHILE WAITING AT A STOP LIGHT I ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE LIGHT CHANGED AND THE VEH DID NOT MOVE. I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR TO THE FLOORBOARD AND THE ENGINE REVVED FOR APPROXIMATELY 5-7 SECONDS BEFORE THE VEH LURCHED/JUMPED FORWARD AND SLOWLY MOVED. I AGAIN IMMEDIATELY WENT TO HYUNDAI. I WAS GIVEN A LOANER VEHICLE - 2016 TUCSON. 5/21/2016 @ 1350 SAME NON-MOVEMENT WHILE ACCELERATING FROM A STOP OCCURRED W/THE LOANER VEHICLE. IT HAD NOT BEEN DRIVEN IN 2 DAYS COND-RAINY. THIS OCCURRED APPROX 3 MINS AFTER START AND W/IN A MILE. HYUNDAI CORP ARE NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ISSUES WITH THIS VEH. 3 SIMILAR ISSUES FROM CUSTOMERS WERE REPORTED TO THIS DEALERSHIP. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEH OR ALLOWING ANY MEMBER OF MY FAMILY TO DRIVE THIS VEH. IT IS AN ACCIDENT IN WAITING EITHER FROM BEING HIT FROM BEHIND BY ANOTHER VEH OR FROM STRIKING ANOTHER B/C OF THE LURCHING. I HAD TO PUT MY HAZARDS ON AND HOPE THAT I DID NOT GET HIT FROM BEHIND. I AM NOT SATISFIED AND WANT A REFUND FOR BOTH OF THE VEH'S I PURCHASED DUE TO THIS HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. AT RANDOM TIMES, USUALLY FROM A STOP, BUT SOMETIMES WHEN PULLING INTO TRAFFIC, THE VEH DOES NOT MOVE. I CONSIDER THIS TO BE A VERY HAZARDOUS DEFECT. HYUNDAI IS UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE ERROR, SO ENG. ADVISES TO RELEASE THE VEH BACK TO ME, THEY ARE UNAWARE OF ANY SIMILAR PROBLEMS. I WILL NEVER DRIVE ANOTHER HYUNDAI VEH AGAIN B/C IT IS UNSAFE AND THE LACK OF RESPONSIBILITY TO RECTIFY THEIR MANUFACTURING PROBLEM. IT IS NOT A DRIVER'S OPERATIONAL ERROR.

REPORTED HESITATION WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP, IN TRAFFIC, OR WHEN EXITING A TURN. SERVICE TECH ACKNOWLEDGED AS DID THE SALES TEAM THAT THEY EXPERIENCED THE ISSUE IN THE VEHICLE BUT SINCE THERE ARE NO RECALLS THAT APPLY TO THE VEHICLE THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO UNTIL CORPORATE DECIDES TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE. HAVE HAD SEVERAL TIMES WHEN THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHEN TRYING TO MERGE WITH TRAFFIC AND HESITATES OR LUNGES WHEN COMING TO A STOP SOME TIMES. CONTINUES TO HAPPEN WHEN DRIVING SINCE FIRST PURCHASED ON 5/21/2016.
