2022 HYUNDAI TUCSON Complaints

The headlights on the 2022 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid Ltd are a road safety hazard. The dealer says they are not aware of the issue, which makes no sense all you have to do is google it and see others with the same issue. Turning on the headlights creates a dark shadow. I have to drive with my brights on when turning, and most of the time at night. The bottom shadow moves with every movement. You can see the triangles on the road, and again when turning you lose light. If I would have driven this vehicle at night, I would not have purchased it. I have contact Hyundai but so far no response. I purchased this in April and I am ready to sell it. I can't put dates in the date section has this has been from April 2022 until today 1/2/23 and will continue.

The car has been erratic in its performance since purchase. The car has a continuous issue with the suspension, electronic system, and brakes. I have reached out to Hyundai manufacturer on numerous occasion regarding the car and no one is addressing my concerns. The car drives so erratic and unpredictable that I am fearful that someone will be injured or worst. Attached is a photo of the entire system going offline, which occurs all the time, and because the whole care is computerized this poses a safety risk for me and others on the road. When the car goes offline, I no longer have control of the vehicle and all mechanical systems are down. Please help me to get this issue resolved before someone gets hurt. This is the second submission in regard to this car. 5nmjfcae4nh015882

The contact owns a 2022 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while driving from a stationary position the vehicle switched to safe mode and suddenly decelerated, and would not accelerate above 20 - 27 MPH. During the failure, the message "Limited to 20 MPH" was displayed. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer on multiple occasions but the failure could not be duplicated. No further information was available. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 1,500.

While accelerating on an on ramp leading to the interstate, the 2022 Hyundai Tucson PHEV Limited was in the Smart Drive Mode and the vehicle was in Electric Mode only being powered by the electric motor. I noticed that the vehicle was struggling to accelerate to the interstate speed of 70 MPH, I pressed the accelerator further in order to gain more speed to safely merge onto the interstate. With the accelerator pushed all the way, the engine eventually turned on after 5-7 seconds assisting the vehicle to reach the speed of 70 MPH. Once on the interstate, I set the cruise control to 70 MPH but the vehicle was not able to maintain that speed. The speed of the Tucson started to drop suddenly and I then began to make my way to the right shoulder of the interstate. During the process of moving to the right shoulder, I did notice that the Power Gauge on the instrument cluster was maxed out, the vehicles engine was running at at very high revs, but I was never able to get more speed out of the vehicle. The vehicle was slowed to 40-45 MPH by the time I was able to reach the shoulder due to traffic. Once on the shoulder and out of the 3 lane, 70 MPH traffic, I was able to power down the vehicle and restart the vehicle with no issues. I then put the vehicle in drive and signaled to the left in order to merge back into traffic. I accelerated briskly to merge with the 70 MPH traffic and the vehicle did operate as normal. The vehicle began to move under EV power and the engine did turn on to begin assisting in moving the vehicle up to speed. The vehicle operated normally for the remainder of my drive, approximately 3-4 miles. During this event, the vehicle never did display any warning lights or messages on the instrument panel or the center screen. No warning tones or chimes were given either. The high voltage battery was at an approximately 68% state of charge and the fuel tank was approximately half full.

The windshield wipers on our 2022 Hyundai Tucson are failing. They still work but will randomly stop in the middle of the windshield blocking our vision. Yes, the problem has been reproduced by a dealer during our second visit. The first time we reported it while getting an oil change, they wouldn't do anything about it because they said they couldn't reproduce it. There were no warning lamps or messages about the problem and it is getting worse. It used to only do it when you use intermittent mode, but now it does it all the time, regardless of mode. Our concern is that they will stop working altogether. Once it was reproduced, they had to order parts and cannot give us a timeline for when they will have the parts. It's been over a week now and we haven't heard back.

I am an active-duty service member who purchased a new 2022 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid on 16 October 2021. The car occasionally makes a strange humming noise while the vehicle is completely turned off. I recorded my car making this strange noise, and the video recording can be seen at https://youtu.be/bY8GJenoWBQ. I had previously notified Hyundai Maintenance of this during a scheduled vehicle check; nothing was done to resolve this matter. The advertised fuel economy on this car is 36/37/37 (city/combined/highway) Miles per Gallon. I am currently getting 28 MPG (see attachment), which is approximately 30% below the advertised fuel economy. Since I purchased this vehicle, it has consistently delivered a poor fuel economy well below the advertised fuel economy. After trying to resolve the poor fuel economy issue with Hyundai for 9 months (see attachment), I reached out to the Better Business Bureau seeking a resolution. On 17 November 2022, I was notified by the Better Business Bureau that Hyundai rejected my proposed resolutions of Hyundai repairing the car under manufacturer warranty or replace it if unable to fix the poor fuel economy, as well as reimburse me for money spent due to excessive fuel consumption. Additionally, other persons have reported their Hyundai cars delivering a fuel economy much lower than advertised (visit https://www.reddit.com/r/Hyundai/comments/nwayqv/2022_tucson_hybrid_poor_gas_mileage/). I have the perception that Hyundai lied and deliberately deceived me. Something is wrong with my car, and Hyundai has been either incompetent or unwilling to repair the issue under the car manufacturer warranty. I believe that it's important to hold companies such as Hyundai accountable. Otherwise, it would have no incentive for doing what is right. I request your assistance with investigating, and if possible, taking actions to hold Hyundai accountable for deceiving consumers by exaggerating its car fuel economy.

The vehicle lost acceleration just as I was getting on the freeway ramp. It would move but slowly. I put emergency lights on, drive on the side and crept off the next exit and pulled into parking lot. Shut the vehicle off and checked tires, gas pedal, under hood. All seemed ok. I started the car and it started moving and then went back to hardly moving. I was near the dealership when this happened so took it to dealership/ service. It has had a few episodes we’re it seemed something was wrong with the car prior to this. A dragging or not shifting into gear as it should were I have pulled over to see if my tire had gone flat or something. Then it goes away. Also clock kept running slow loosing a minute every few days. Hyundai service could not get the car to repeat the incident. They ran a scan and codes were ok.

The automatic emergency braking has numerous false alerts, several times each day. The problem seems to be worse when a vehicle travelling the same direction in a different lane slows. The problem also appears when the Tucson's own shadow shifts directly in front of the car near sunrise and sunset when longer shadows are present. The car will brake hard though there is no risk of forward collision. This creates a danger as vehicles behind my own cannot anticipate this sudden hard braking, thus increasing the risk of a rear end collision.

I bough my new suv around 4 to 5 months ago. Since i bought it and this only happened about 3 times. I was on highway and with no cars on the highway and myself going 70 the collision in the front came on and emergency breaking saying im about to hit something. But nothing was there. This also happened when i reversed too. The brakes would slam on saying collision. Also when im driving in a straight line the lane detection moves me in the middle of the road to the white lines are under my car and i am driving on 2 lanes. It keeps trying to move me over to other lane even though im in the correct lane. I have almost got into like 7 accidents. I already brought my car to the dealer and they told me there is no fix for that. I am not the first to come in saying the same thing.

I bought my brand new car about 4 months ago. When i bought the car it was raining and i mentioned about the driver side wiper not working properly. They told me i have warranty and just bring it in when i can. I made an appointment and i have been there 2 times with same issue. The issue is the wiper skips on the windshield and makes loud bang when it goes to the left of the wndshield. I changed the factory wipers to brand new $30.00 Bosch and they same thing happened until 2 weeks the wiper finally just broke. I am on my 4th driver side wiper since i bought the car brand new 4 - 5 months ago. All i ask them is to replace the wiper arm but they told me until there is a recall they cannot replace it. Even though they see the issue. I cannot drive my suv if it rains out and in florida it rains everyday. The wiper just skips while making loud screacing noise. The Advisor told me that universal hyundai sold me the car without the lining on the windshield and idk what that means. I take my car to same dealer i bought the suv at. Please have a solution so i can get this fixed. Thank You
