2022 HYUNDAI TUCSON Complaints

1. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The hybrid powertrain system, transmission, or engine appears to be malfunctioning. The vehicle hesitates or stalls when pressing the gas, losing power as if it doesn’t recognize when to transition between EV and gas mode. Yes, the vehicle is available for inspection upon request. 2. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The issue caused the vehicle to lose power unexpectedly, particularly while driving at highway speeds, which forced me to pull over multiple times for safety reasons. This happened on [XXX] before the [XXX] Tunnel, creating a hazardous situation in heavy traffic. If the vehicle stalled at the wrong moment—such as in an intersection or while merging—it could significantly increase the risk of a crash. 3. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? No. I have taken the vehicle to a Hyundai dealership, but no official errors or diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) have been detected. The dealership has not confirmed the issue unless I agree to high-cost diagnostics that may not guarantee a resolution. 4. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, or others? The vehicle has been looked at by a Hyundai dealership, but no official findings or resolutions have been provided. The issue persists, and no recall or technical service bulletin (TSB) has been mentioned to me as a possible cause. 5. Were there any warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No warning lights, error messages, or dashboard alerts appeared before or during the power loss. The issue first started occurring at approximately 35,000–40,000 miles and has continued to around 50,000 miles. The first time I noticed the problem was during a long-distance drive from Los Angeles to CO INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5

While driving approximately 75 mph in the passing lane on highway, the vehicle suddenly automatically brake. Pulled back into the right lane and didn't really understand what happened. Next time i pulled out to pass and had a car on my right hand side it did the same thing. Pulled back into right hand lane and stayed there for quite some time. I then turned off the all around sensor @ and it didnt do it again but as i got closer to home the warning light came on and a message popped up. It now has the triangle caution sign on and the picture of car icon in amber. I had driven the car from my home for about 50 miles and parked car for two hours, the drove back toward home for about 20 miles when the event happened. It was dangerous and makes not want to use any of the "assist system's" going forward. I plan to wash the car today to see if the lights will go off- if they don't then i shall call dealer on Monday. This occurred on saturday. Ill be washing car today (sunday). If i had anyone driving closely behind me, i for sure would have been rear ended.

While driving on the highway, I attempted to accelerate up to 70 mph and the check engine light came on and the front end of the car started shaking. Had to pull over and restart the car to continue safely. This has happened four separate times at different mileage variables and each time they replace 2-3 of my fuel injectors with no explanation as to what is causing them to constantly blow. They never make it even 1000 miles before at least one goes out again. My vehicle is approaching 52,000 miles and has been serviced four times for this since December 2023. This needs to be a vehicle recall as the warranty will not pay for this forever and the underlying cause of the problem is not being addressed by Hyundai.

While driving on the highway at approximately 65 mph the car emergency brake kicked in with no cars in front of it. Causing a huge jerk. This happened 3 times within a 25 minute time span

Lost acceleration while driving on the freeway and car started shaking with Check Engine light on. Took the car to the dealer for diagnostic and was informed that #4 injector failed causing the engine to misfire. This was the 3rd fuel injector failing in 5 months. Per my service advisor, Hyundai released an updated TSB (25-FL-001H) in January 2025 with a 4 new fuel injector replacement kit. Unfortunately, this injector kit was so new that I had to drive a service rental car for a week waiting for the kit to arrive. Let's see if these new fuel injectors will last longer than the old ones.

Hyundai has a service bulletin for their 12V battery but isn’t notifying owners. Today my vehicle stopped working and lost all acceleration on a busy 3 lane street that is 55mph. I was able to limp it to a left turn lane where I had to research the issue and found many others had instances like mine. The battery stops working and subsequently stops the vehicle from accelerating and tells you to ‘stop safely’ with no warning or indication that you’re about to stop moving on a road.

Car was driving fine. Started sputtering and died, unable to restart. No prior warning injectors will fail. Known fuel injector problem with model years found and replaced. Hyundai Tsb 25-fl-001h used.

My 2022 Tucson's fuel injectors for the first cylinders have failed, creating a misfires in cylinder one.

Fuel injectors failed while driving on parkway. Car lost power(would not go over 25mph) without notice. Not fun driving at 60mph then abrutly go to 25mph on left lane cars behind me nearly hit my car and could have caused a major pileup.There was no warning prior to losing power and check engine lights came on maybe 2 minutes later. Was able to get to right lane and exit parkway to a secure location to have car towed to dealership. Dealership replaced the fuel injectors.

Purchased a brand new 2022 tucson. Within 2 months it went to the dealer with about 7 dash fault lights turning on (abs, Air bag, lane assist, check engine, just to name a few) and breaks engage on their own. Stayed at the dealership for over 2 months while they had the Hyundai engineers try to figure out the issue. They gave it back to me and said it was a connector in the rear door. The vehicle has been back 4 times for the same exact issues for months at a time and they keep experimenting and giving it back to me. I tried to get it exchanged for a safer one and they denied my request. I guess my families safety isn't that important to hyundai after all.
