2022 HYUNDAI TUCSON Complaints

A week ago, I was driving my 2022 Tucson Hybrid Limited on the highway on my way to work around 7:50 a.m. It was a bright day, good weather. I was in the center lane when my car suddenly braked HARD and came to a stop on the highway! My foot was still on the gas pedal, but the Automatic Emergency Braking light was on. I panicked because I had no control over what the car was doing. Thankfully, I was not rear-ended and didn't cause an accident. I put on my hazard lights, shifted into park on the highway's center lane, then back into drive and it seemed fine. There was not really any traffic in front of me that I remember, but there were some cars on either side and behind me that had to swerve around me. I don't trust this car anymore. It is going to get me or someone else killed. I took it to the dealer 2 days ago and the initial inspection didn't show any problems or error codes. They told me I could have it back since there didn't seem to be a problem or they could give me a loaner car and keep testing my car. I have a loaner. I hope they find something wrong with the car, otherwise, I am afraid of my car getting me or someone else killed. I am especially scared after reading about all the others here who have had this same issue.

Fuel Injector went out while I was driving to work approximately 5,000 miles later, I was driving home from work and another fuel injector went out. Both times I had to have my car towed to the dealership. They said that was a recall on fuel injector but only could fix the one that went out each time. I am nervous about the next time it goes out. Where will I be and will it be dark and unsafe. I have been a loyal Hyundai car owner. I am now thinking about not purchasing another Hyundai and selling my Tuscon. Customer service and making sure customers are placed in a safe car at all times is very important. Hyundai failed this time.

I have a cylinder misfire related to known issues with this product and any dealership affiliated with warranty work are months out, there are no backup vehicles and Hyundai will not take any action until they are diagnosed. We have no backup vehicle and my wife was almost hit. There was sudden power loss of the vehicle and it is a safety concern. No reimbursement for rentals or alternate solutions provided

While driving I noticed that the navigation went out for a second and then the brakes would not work. I was about to hit the car in front of me, but the auto braking stopped the vehicle.

I was driving the car home on 8/20/24 at roughly 50 MPH, and I felt this brief bucking motion with the vehicle and a loss of power to the motor. The vehicle did not fully shut down and continued to drive, but it struggled when trying to accelerate. When I got home, I checked the Engine code through MyHyundai, which showed code P219CF0. I reached out to the dealership, leaving multiple voicemails, and after over a week of trying to get them on the phone, I went in person and scheduled an appointment for them to service the vehicle on 8/28. They were not able to see the vehicle until 9/3/24, and after talking with the service manager and reviewing my car history, they were confident it was another injector; he was ordering the parts because he said he didn't have any, and it would take a bit to get them. The car went in on 9/3 as planned, and they called to confirm that Cylinder 1 had an Air-Fuel Ratio imbalance and that the GDI Injector had failed. They had gotten in the injector but did not have the High Press Pipe needed to go along with it, and they would have the pipe in by 9/6. I'm unsure when the pipe arrived, but I called in mid-afternoon on 9/9/24, and they were wrapping up my vehicle and that it would be ready shortly. They performed the standard 34-point inspection on the vehicle and did not find further issues. I reached back out to Hyundai Motors America as I had reached out to them after my second Injector failed; at the time, they were unwilling to replace the remaining injectors proactively. I've now opened my second case with Hyundai Motors America. I am communicating through email now, and I do not believe Hyundai is willing to replace the final fuel injector proactively, even though the vehicle only has one original injector remaining, and based on the bulletin Hyundai has out, the chances are pretty good it will soon fail too.

I had gone out with my vehicle for an errand, and it was running fine. When I finished, I came back into the vehicle and started it up, and it was shaking tremendously on startup. I turned off the car, started it back on, and it started fine. I got about 300 feet from where I was going, not even ten mph, and the vehicle started shaking the same as minutes before; this time, a check engine light came on. I immediately parked it in a safe spot and called for Roadside Assistance. The dealership that serviced the vehicle informed me the DTC code was P030400, meaning the Fuel Injector for Cylinder 4 had failed. It was luckily replaced promptly. This was the second GDI Injector that had been replaced on the vehicle. Unfortunately, I was told there was a service bulletin on the problem and that the dealership was seeing a lot of this problem. I contacted Hyundai Motors America directly to try proactively to get the remaining two injectors replaced. Still, I was told that because there was no current issue with the injectors, they would be unable to provide any assistance proactively. The vehicle had 35645 miles on the motor when this incident occurred.

I was driving on the highway, and at roughly 55 MPH, the vehicle suddenly lost power; it seemed to regain function momentarily, and then the check engine light went on, and then the vehicle shut down. The vehicle was then rolling. Thankfully I was able to throw hazards on quick enough and the vehicles around me were alert enough not to collide into my vehicle and I was able to get the vehicle over to the shoulder before the lost momentum. The vehicle was then towed to the nearest Hyundai dealership. The dealership informed me that the engine produced code P030200, meaning that the fuel injector on Cylinder 2 had failed. They were able to replace it. The vehicle was at 24188 miles at the time.

Fuel injector failure. UTC code PO030300 detected at 27500 miles. Car is shaky and loss of power in idle. Code showing on infortainment screen. Taken to dealership on 9/17/24 with appointment and vehicle was not "diagnosed" until 9/19/24. From loss of power, with children in car it is a safety issue.

The check hybrid system light came on just after I tried to accelerate from a complete stop and I had no acceleration. I had the accelerator pushed to the floor and I got no response and was not able to accelerate two different times within 5 minutes of one another. I was in traffic unable to accelerate. I took it to the dealer and they were unable to find anything wrong and told me to bring it back if it happened again.
