AT 7500 I REPORTED ENGINE WAS UNUSUALLY THEY TOLD ME IT WAS CHARACTERISTIC OF THE CAR AT 18000 MILES THEY REPLACED THE SHORT BLOCK. AT 26000 MILES THEY REPLACED IT A 2ND TIME. THE CAR ALSO HESITATES ON OCCASION WHEN FROM A STOP I STEP ON THE GAS THEN TAKES OFF. THEY SAYS IT'S CHARACTERISTIC OF THE CAR AND WE COULD NOT DUPLICATE IN THE 3 MILE RIDE WE TOOK THEY SENT ME HOME WITH IT I FEEL THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. AT 28500 MILES THE LEFT SIDE OF THE CAR DIRECTIONAL LIGHTS WONT GO OFF EVEN IT'S STUCK ON 24/7. IN SHOP AGAIN. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 HYUNDAI TUCSON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH, THE VEHICLE WOULD TRAVEL OVER BUMPS AND POT HOLES VERY ROUGHLY. THE PROBLEM RECURRED TWENTY TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,000.

WHILE DRIVING THE STEERING WHEEL SUDDENLY BECAME SO LOOSE I HAD TO TOLD THE WHEEL VERY STILL BECAUSE IF YOU TOUCHED SLIGHTLY THE CAR WOULD SWERVE EITHER TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT THIS CONTINUED FOR SEVERAL MINUTES AND THEN CORRECT ITSELF. THIS HAPPENED ANY TIMES - THEN LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD CAME ON - THE AIR PRESSURE, BATTERY AND ENGINE LIGHT AND THE STEERING LIGHT. THE NEXT DAY EVERYTHING WAS FINE NO LIGHTS - THEN THE STEERING WENT LOOSE AGAIN AND THE LIGHTS CAME ON. CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR AND WAS TOLD THEY COULD SEE THE CAR FOR A WEEK. ANOTHER HAD ME COME IN THE NEXT DAY BUT WAS TOLD THE CAR DID SHOW THE LIGHTS SO THEY CLEARED THE COMPUTER AND RESET IT BUT THEY COULD DO NOTHING MORE UNLESS THE LIGHTS CAME BACK ON. I COULD BRING THE CAR BACK WHEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I WAS NO SOONER OUT OF THE DEALERSHIP AND THE STEERING WENT AND THE LIGHTS CAME BACK ON - I TURNED AROUND AND HEADED BACK - JUST I GOT THERE THE LIGHTS WENT OFF AND THE STEERING WAS NORMAL SO I DID NOT GO BACK IN. IT IS UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING THE CAR KNOWING THIS COULD HAPPEN AT ANYTIME AND NOTHING HAS BEEN FIXED. IN THE MEANTIME, NO ONE HAS A LOANER CAR AND THIS IS THE ONLY CAR WE HAVE. I WILL GO BACK NEXT WEEK FOR FURTHER OBSERVATION. *TR

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2014 HYUNDAI TUCSON GLS FROM MY LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALER. SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING THE CAR, I NOTICED A STRONG VIBRATION THAT SEEMED TO COME FROM UNBALANCED TIRES. I TOOK THE CAR IN FOR THE FIRST TIME AND THEY FOUND IT WAS UNBALANCED AND PROCEEDED TO BALANCE THE CAR. HOWEVER, THIS DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. I STILL NOTICED A SLIGHT VIBRATION WHEN I DROVE THE CAR, AND IT WAS ESPECIALLY BAD AT 50MPH. I TOOK IT BACK FOR A SECOND TIME TO THE HYUNDAI DEALER AND THEY BALANCED THE CAR AGAIN, BUT ONLY A VERY SMALL AMOUNT. AGAIN, BALANCING THE TIRES MADE NO DIFFERENCE. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER FOR A THIRD TIME AND RODE IN THE CAR WITH THE LEAD MECHANIC AT THAT LOCATION. HE ALSO NOTICED THE VIBRATION AND ASKED I LEAVE THE CAR WITH HIM. HE THEN TESTED ONE OF THE OTHER TUCSONS ON THEIR LOT THAT WAS THE SAME TRIM MODEL AND HAD THE SAME TIRES. HE REQUESTED I GO WITH HIM IN THAT CAR, AND WE FELT THE SAME VIBRATION AS IN MY CAR. HE DIAGNOSED THE ISSUE AS A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE VEHICLE. ON COLD MORNINGS, THE CAR VIBRATES SO BADLY IT CHATTERS MY TEETH AND FEELS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. MY CONCERN IS THAT IT WILL ONLY CONTINUE GET WORSE WITH TIME, CAUSING PERMANENT DAMAGE. EVEN THOUGH THE CAR HAS A GREAT WARRANTY, I STILL FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING IT AND AM RELUCTANT TO TAKE IT ON LONG TRIPS. I CURRENTLY HAVE A CASE OPEN WITH HYUNDAI MOTORS USA. THE CASE WAS OPENED IN MARCH OF 2014 AND HYUNDAI FEELS IT CAN BE SOLVED BY REPLACING THE TIRES. I HAVE NOT DONE THAT YET AS THEY WILL NOT GIVE ME COUPONS FOR THE FULL PRICE OF THE TIRES. THE VIBRATION HAS STARTED TO GROW NOTICEABLY WORSE AND I AM CONCERNED FOR BOTH MY SAFETY AND OTHER PEOPLE THAT MAY HAVE THE SAME CAR. *TR
