2022 HYUNDAI TUCSON Complaints

Purchased this vehicle 12/2021 it hesitated on pick up but drove good after that nice look but the headlights are bad at night. First month I had a bad scare as when attempting to stop the brakes gave out, I had to pump multiple times to get the car to stop, this happened again about 1 month ago. On 10/10/22 while attempting to park in my driveway which is on a hill the car did not want to accelerate when pressing the gas and many lights turned on the dashboard. Warning, check engine, brake, front collision, etc. I have not had any accidents for the collision light to be on anyways. I turned the car off and restarted it I even disconnected the battery but still nothing the car has power because it does turn on and the lights, radio work but it just would not accelerate. I'm on a very dangerous hill lucky this happened late night when not much vehicle traffic. The next morning 10/11/22 around 10 am Hyundai came to pick up the vehicle. I passed by that day around 4 pm to see what was going on. They had not checked it yet which is understandable we ask the guy when he thought it would be checked out and he responded that towed vehicles take longer to be checked, we asked for a loner and they said they did not have. Saturday 10/15/22 went again, the car was still in the same spot not looked at yet, today 10/19/22- 1 week and 1 day they have not checked the car and we were told they had a lot of cars to work on and we were far down on that list. So basically they will probably take 2-3 weeks to even look at it and if any parts are needed it would probably take another month and without a loner. So we the paying clients have to figure it out. This is very unacceptable not to mention how scary it was for the car to completely give out on a hill thank god no one was driving or walking behind me. I have been driving for 29 yrs and have never experienced something like this. This car can potentially be deadly specially to a new driver.

Initial incident happened in June 2022; car under 5k miles. When slowing down at a light, car suddenly started to shake and engine would shut off. Dashboard warning indicated place in neutral and start car again. After restart, car would still turn off, unable to move or shift gears without shutting down. After keeping engine off for a few minutes, car was driveable again but a sound coming from engine when in D while at a light. Brought to dealership in Woodbridge, VA but was told they were unable to replicate incident. 2nd incident occurred in October 29, 2022. At a light, car was going to auto shut off while at light but then lurched, shook violently and engine shut off. The dashboard said place in neutral and turn engine on. Was able to move car after a few attempts and move to safe area. Let car rest for a few hours. When driving, and slowing down at a light, car would shake; i would place in Neutral and car will settle. Any time at a light, it has to be in neutral or else engine will die. Brought to dealership, added 15miles but unable to replicate. Nov 3rd, car began to lurch when at speed of 40 - 45. after stopping at a light, car would not accelarate, engine revving but little movement. had to pull over and turn engine off. Nov 5th, while on highway vehicle began to lurch at 55-60mph, engine was at 4rpm, engine struggling but speed not increasing. since on a downhill, car was moving but engine revving; speed not accelerating. Had to merge to shoulder; shut car off 2x and restart before car drove without incident. Videos of dashboard were taken during incidents in October and November.

The contact owns a 2022 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while driving approximately 60 MPH, the panoramic roof suddenly fractured. There was no impact to cause the fracture. The contact had taken to the vehicle to the dealer; however, the vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and opened a case regarding the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 20,000.

I bought this car less than 30 days ago, and it has 1,500 miles. I tried to start my car in the morning and when I put it in reverse, it just rolled forward. I braked and put it back in park and the engine shut off. I tried this a few more times before I gave up. A tow came and first suggested it was the alternator, before another tow came and suggested it was a sensor. It has been at the dealer for 48 hours without a diagnosis, “maybe the injectors.” I am fortunate this happened in a parking lot and not while I was on the road. I am now terrified to drive this car.

I was leaving a drive-through. Crossing traffic when my 2022 Tuscan N-Line just stopped accelerating the engine started to shake and SUV became unresponsive. As I was crossing traffic. I was almost hit. Moved the SUV to the middle of the street. Turned the SUV off. Restarted it. The SUV had no power and the check engine light came on. The engine started shaking violently. A bad burning smell ( like) burning rubber/ plastic started, then the engine started to smoke. I turned the SUV off again. After that the SUV wouldn’t start. Had it towed to the dealer. It only has 1130 miles on it. I just bought it July 20th.

With approximately 6552 miles on the car, 7 months after I bought it new, the Vehicle sputtered and shut off. The GDI pump was replaced. It has not runnright since. It sputters, it does not respond appropriately when the accelerator is pressed, it went into limp mode and would not go more than 35 mph. It did not throw and engine code when this happened. This is a huge problem in itself. I could be out of oil and it potentially will not throw a code or warning. When the dealer had it for 45 days they drove it approximately 100 mile and could not duplicate. It is a serious danger to my life and I refuse to drive it. I had it towed and it now sits in my driveway will the lemon law case is processing

I was driving when the car stopped accelerating. Then I smelled something burning. I was able to pull over and saw smoke coming from my tailpipe. After that, the engine light came on. A warning came up on the display that said, multiple possible conditions have occurred with your vehicle.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Since February of this year, a few weeks after I purchased this car the center console has to be replaced...it is on order to be replaced since April due to rear camera malfunction (Hyundai of Bowie, submitted BBB complaint). A few weeks ago the emergency brake initiates randomly. And yesterday the Engine light is on. Yes available upon request How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? I'm unable to see cars or people when in reverse. While taking off from a parked position, the emergency brake comes on and can cause me to crash or stop suddenly forcing someone to crash into the back of me. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes, took the truck for repair back in April, still unresolved (center console), no response from them after they supposedly ordered the replacement part. The emergency brake issue just started. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? NO Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? Yes, the rear camera would show previous images on the camera or green screen with lines. When the emergency brake comes on without being initiated by me, other lights come on as well. Now (10/24/22) the engine light is on!

It’s not even an year I bought a 2022 Hyundai Tucson SEL (Convenience Package). I started getting couple of issues. 1. I noticed that Gears aren’t shifting smoothly and always ends whining between gear shifts. 2. Soundsystem started giving trouble since a week with unclear/distortion noises while playing music. I tried connecting via cable/bluetooth and changed to FM/USB but still the same. Worst experience for me. I hope Hyundai will help me by fixing the car.
