2016 HYUNDAI Tucson

On May 5th 2023 my 2016 Hyundai Tucson started having problems with the windows. On this particular day the driver side front window fell into the door out of nowhere and would not roll back up. 3 days later on May 8th 2023 the same exact thing happened to the passenger side in the front that window just fell with no warning and would not roll back up. I got on the internet and found out that this has happened to many people and it usually happens back to back so I’m crossing my fingers and hoping it doesn’t happen anytime soon to the back seat windows. I have also heard there is not a recall on this which I do not understand so many people have complained that it’s happened to them why isn’t there a recall? I have looked at some of the prices just to get one window fixed and it is outrageous I’ve already had so many problems with this vehicle since the day I bought it you would never imagine what I’ve been through. And now after getting my car back from the dealership from being fixed from an engine recall less than 6 months later there’s another recall for the alarm system! You have got to be kidding me I believe I have a lemon and I do believe there is a lemon law I’m sick and tired of always having to wonder if my car is going to make it from point A to point B when I just paid it off when it was in the shop getting a brand new motor put in it from a recall this is ridiculous put the windows on a recall and let these people including myself get our Windows fixed so we can go down the road and peace and not with all the noise and elements of the outside air and rain and heat Etc some of us do have children and grandchildren to think about.

ALL 4 windows stopped working within 2 weeks of each other had the motors replaced and now THOSE aren’t working.

Car Handle paint is bubbling.

This Hyundai was trouble from day one and Braman Hyundai on Biscayne was a BAIT and SWITCH scam. They personify the reputation of sleazy car salemen!!!

At times the car refuses to accelerate. This happens at near stopped speed as in exiting a driveway or business and are creeping forward to check traffic,and then try to accelerate there is no response from the car. The engine does not rev as many people have reported,but just has no response and leaves you half way out in the street with traffic baring down on you. My luck so far has kept me from a bad situation,but I\'m afraid the time will come when luck will not help.

I have had my car in for service several times for accelerator issues, it seems to stick and won\'t go. Even happened in reverse twice. I was told it was a software update each time and was fixed. It was never \"fixed\", the issue has persisted. Twice I had the AC stop blowing cold air, dealers response \"could not replicate\". I was on vacation traveling in July and Google it. Several people said to stop the car, turn off the engine and when you restart the engine it will work blowing cold air, seems to reboot the computer. I tried this and it work. In February 2018 while driving on icy roads my ABS light came on when my ABS kicked in, it stayed on for just that day. A couple of weeks later all of the lights on my dash came on started flashing and the tachometer would drop to 0 the speedometer for move up to 80 all while driving down the highway at normal speeds. Took it to the dealer and I was told it was the \"power booster pump\" and the repair was $1200 and not under warranty because of my mileage. I filed a complaint and it covered under a courtesy. Currently my car is at the dealer and it has been for a month. While driving it home from work it would lose power but then the power came back and it seemed ok. This happened several times and there were no warning lights that came on. When I arrive to my destination the car had a very strong smell of gas and I noticed I had used over a tank of gas. I turned the car off and left it sit for a few, when I returned and attempted to restart the car it hesitated but start and the low fuel light immediately came on but still no other warning lights. I turned it off and had it towed to the dealer. First diagnosis was GDI pump and battery estimate $1100 but that didn\'t fix it. I was told it was the Turbo but they needed to verify with tech support but it would be under warranty. So then the turbo was replaced and I was given a call that \"the car still doesn\'t work\". They were gonna try replacing the spark plugs and let me know. That was a week ago. I have heard nothing in a week!!!! I have only owned this car for almost 3 years but drive a lot of miles for work. I have maintained the car religiously as recommended changing the oil every 3 weeks because of it has the turbo. This car was their top of the line and I paid for what I thought would be a solid reliable car. I am getting ready to make a second car payment for a car I do not and cannot even drive.

When stepping on Accelerator from a complete stop, vehicle moves slowly, and then in about 2-3 seconds will take off. Sometimes it jerks as it tries to accelerate from a stop. If doing 5-10 mph, through a parking lot, or large/extended area, vehicle shutters and jerks.

Dual Clutch transmission is having issues with shifting. I\'ve taken the vehicle to the dealership over and over again and Hyundai will not fix the issue. They say the vehicle is \"normal\", yet it had the issue on the test drive with the technician. Vehicle behavior is abnormal and many other owners have had issues with the transmission.

Problems with the DCT transmission. Vehicle vibrates and has choppy shifting from a complete stop or when accelerating from a slow speed. Potentially dangerous when turing left in front of other vehicles. More importantly, the DCT will suddendly surge forward,for a second or two, with my foot on the brake, when coming to a stop – stop sign, red light, pulling into a parking slot. Several times, I almost bumped a vehicle in front of me because of this. The auto dealer and Hyundai Customer Service said that this is normal behavior for the DCT and nothing can be done about it. There are no current re-calls or service bulletins at this time. 16-AT-003 did not resolve the problem. My current Hyundai case # is 10748512. Referrd this situation to the NHTSA, complaint # 11044546.

The dual clutch transmission on this vehicle is unpredictable and dangerous even after I had the recall done that was supposed to fix the issue. Recently the vehicle failed to accelerate from a stop for 5 seconds when I pushed the gas pedal. Below 25 mph the vehicle doesn\'t shift properly. It jerks, hesitates and shudders. The Hyundai dealership I\'ve brought it to says that there is no fix for this issue and that it\'s typical for a dct. I am very worried about this issue and regret purchasing this vehicle.

VEHICLE INVOLVED IN CRASH, Airbag failed to deploy properly causing injuries. Hyundai Leasing and Hyundai Corp have little concern after four months. As a safety issue, you would think they would respond quickly. Haven\'t even inspected car yet. Have witnesses, photos and airbag itself to verify failure. Concerned about other drivers unaware of the potential problem. Hyundai leasing more concerned about getting their money from insurance and us. Not usually the kind of people to take legal action but at that point.

DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. CAR WONT GO AT TIMES.HESITATION AND SLIPPAGE

The 2016 Hyundai Tucson after the transmission recall, continues to have intermittent no acceleration from a stop / rolling stop. RPMs will increase but it will be 3-5 seconds before the transmission engages when the issue does occur. The car then jolts forwards because of the high RPMs. I have had multiple near misses due to this. This problem has the potential to be life threatening and is completely unsafe.

We bought the car thinking it was an automatic transmission. Went on vacation the following week to south Florida. (2000 mile trip). On the way back, the car had a couple of episodes where it would not move then lurched forward. After software updates, we are still unsure of when the car will actually move when depressing the accelerator. We also have a pretty bad vibration when backing out of our driveway. I have began talking with Hyundai customer care about buying the car back. They want me to keep taking it to the dealership. Dealership says it is operating as designed. I really dislike the way the Tucson drives. Completely different than when we test drove it.

Duel Clutch Transmission in the 2016 Hyundai Tucson 1.6 Turbo is going to get someone killed, if it hasn\'t already. First month of ownership, 1,162 miles, vehicle failed to accelerate on Interstate, almost caused collision. Brought in to dealership immediately—-did DCT rework from factory. Months later, my wife, then I, were left holding our breath as car again failed to accelerate, almost causing two accidents. Month later, car overheated, 11,300 miles \"System Overheat, Stop Safely\". Problem went from intermittent to every time car stopped and took off—-it would lurch at 18 mph, pause WITHOUT MOVING WHILE GAS PEDAL WAS PRESSED FOR THREE OR FOUR SECONDS, then reengage, go up to 36-38 mph and do the same thing. Since this happened in north Georgia,brought it in to Hyundai Kennasaw dealership. First shift actuator was changed, did not fix. Then two days later they changed clutch actuator, did not work. Completely stumped and saying they might have to change the transmission, they rented me a car to return to Louisiana (already I had flown daughter home for work at my expense). Drove home in rental and called dealership the next day and got—-the car is driving fine! What? What about changing the transmission? We have driven it 93 miles, it is running fine! Strange. Dropped off my vehicle on June 5th, picked it up at my nearby Louisiana dealership on June 27th——three weeks. While not hesitating everytime from a stop——it is still lurching, bucking, particularly after sitting in traffic and then starting again. No way this vehicle is safe——-and no way it is worth the price tag! To top it off I filed a case with Hyundai Corp, Case File 10310980, and a month of talking with them, giving service info and faxing my comments, I am told today the vehicle is driving the way designed. NO WAY HYUNDAI—–MY THIRD ONE, 2006, 2007, and 2016——BUT DEFINITELY MY LAST ONE. Yet you continue to sell this DCT to people knowing it is a possible safety risk!

Ongoing issues with the dual clutch transmission, Hesitation, slipping, clutch slip vibrates at slow speeds. becoming severe safety issue. Three software updates done, 1st two helped some but the last one made problem worse. Dealership and Hyundai unable to help fix! Design is a lemon!

I bought my 2016 Tucson Hyundai (new) at end of October 2016. I have a recurring problem with the Dual Clutch transmission (DCT). No one told me that a recall order had been issued (PRIOR TO MY PURCHASE) for the transmission software, nor that there had been problems with it. I drove the car out of the lot and had about 4 major incidents of the transmission not engaging into 1st gear (although this is an automatic car) from a stop or near stop. It acted like it was stuck in 3rd gear and had never downshifted into first. Meanwhile, I was trying to cross lanes of traffic to make a left hand turn. This happened several times where I actually thought on the last two occasions I was going to get hit by oncoming traffic and T-bowed. I didn\\\\\\\'t take the car in when it first happened because I thought maybe the car isn\\\\\\\'t broken in or something. I just really didn\\\\\\\'t know and didn\\\\\\\'t think it was going to be a recurring problem.

When I finally brought it in to the dealership, Hyundai, did the ordered \\\\\\\"recall\\\\\\\" DCT software update. My car has been somewhat better by there still exists a problem when you are in bumper to bumper traffic and taking your foot off and on the gas. It sputters, bucks, and sometimes takes a while to accelerate, and at other times, when you are just coasting at a very low speed (bumper to bumper traffic) it jumps into the next gear and accelerates by itself (when trying to keep the speed low & consistent). Each time since the first update, Hyundai keeps telling me that they can\\\\\\\'t duplicate the issue. Well, it is unpredictable. I can never tell when it will happen. Also the bucking (like it\\\\\\\'s not int he right gear) they tell me is NORMAL! Who knowingly buys and \\\\\\\"automatic\\\\\\\" a car that doesn\\\\\\\'t engage in the gears smoothly or appropriately. This is not just annoying, but it is very dangerous. Each time I\\\\\\\'m about to change lanes from a slower speed to a higher speed I am second guessing the car because I never know if it will accelerate the way a NORMAL AUTOMATIC CAR SHOULD.

I\\\\\\\'ve brought my car in about 4times. But because Hyundai says they can\\\\\\\'t duplicate the problem, and since they have not repaired it they won\\\\\\\'t take my car back. So I am writing this report so this is documented with your organization. I have also documented the problem with the NHSTB. Thank you C. Sinclair

I have had this problem since I purchased the car in April 2016. When the accelerator is pressed the engine will rev but the car only creeps slowly forward into traffic. SCARY! I have had the transmission recall and the update to the recall performed but it has NOT corrected the problem. I took it back to the dealer but they said there is nothing more they can do to fix the lack of acceleration from a stop.

Hyundai Corporation is not taking responsibility for the issues with this vehicle. There have been 3 other similar issues from customers that have purchased from this dealership, however similar problems have been reported across the country. I do NOT feel safe driving this vehicle or allowing any member of my family to drive this vehicle. It is an accident in waiting either from being hit from behind by another vehicle because they assume you will be moving or from your vehicle striking another because of the \"lurching\". I had to put my hazard flashers on, and hope that I did not get hit from behind. I am NOT satisfied and want my money back for both of the vehicles I purchased due to this huge safety issue. At random times, usually from a stop, but sometimes when pulling into traffic, the transmission will \"freak out\". When this happens, the engine will rev to high RPMs, but the transmission will not send much power, if any, to the wheels. It behaves as if it is either in neutral, has the clutch mostly disengaged, or is attempting to start in a higher gear. This has already caused me to put the vehicle into the shop twice. I consider this to be a very hazardous defect. Hyundai is unable to replicate it (remember, it happens randomly), my local Hyundai dealer service department acts as if their hands are tied and states that Engineering says to release the vehicle back to me. Most recently, they said that they emailed Hyundai Engineering, and that Hyundai Engineering is not aware of any issues like this. There are too many similar incidences for this NOT to be true. I want a refund for both vehicles. I will never drive another Hyundai vehicle again because it is unsafe and the lack of responsibility Hyundai Corporation is taking to rectify their manufacturing problem. It is not a driver\'s operational error.
05/06/2016 @ 1600 (Condition Rainy) While at a stop light (red light), I was waiting for the light to turn green when it did I pressed the accelerator and the car did not move. The engine revved but the car did not go forward. It slowly engaged and lurched forward after approx 3-5 seconds. 5/19/2016 @ 1800 (Conditions -Raining/Had not driven the vehicle in approximately 4 days. Less than a mile from starting the vehicle and had been driving for approx 3-5 mins)-While waiting at a stop light at a complete stop I attempted to accelerate when the light changed to green and the vehicle did not move. I pressed the accelerator to the floorboard and the engine revved for approximately 5-7 seconds before the vehicle lurched/jumped forward and slowly/sluggishly engaged and moved forward. I immediately took the vehicle to Hyundai. I was given a replacement vehicle 2016 Tuscon. On 5/21/2016 @ 1350 the exact same non-movement while accelerating from a stop occurred with this vehicle. It had not been driven in 2 days and the condition was rainy. This occurred approximately 3 mins after starting the vehicle and driven less than a mile. As of this posting 8/09/2016 the vehicle is still at the dealership.

Recurring dangerous problem with dual-clutch automatic transmission. When accelerating, engine will rev and car won\'t move. Almost like transmission is in \"neutral\" and not \"drive.\" After a couple of seconds, transmission will engage and car will jerk forward. Very dangerous. Especially if turning left through a busy intersection. Once sat through entire left-turn signal, put car in \"park\" and back in \"drive\" to finally engage. Took car into Hyundai dealer. I was told Hyundai was aware of the problem and \"working on it.\" They said it was probably a software problem. They reset the computers and told me not to bring it back until I heard from Hyundai. 3 months later…nothing!

Car started to not accelerate when pressing on gas pedal the rpms would not raise or lower during this time it could be on a hill or on a flat surface at any type of stops whether it was a stop sign or a stoplight it didn't matter how much gas you gave the car it would not move and then it would start bouncing what i would describe as hopping the car would start jerking constantly until you released off the gas and gave it more gas until it would finally go this was happening on highways or on city streets while driving down a highway my engine made a funky sound and it turns out my engine rods blue i went to the dealership they told me my car was safe to drive i continued driving my car until it started not shifting this was 3 days after going to the dealership. i called the dealership back told them i was bringing my car to them due to the issues it was having. after several weeks the dealership told me my car needed a brand new engine and transmission due to engine rods breaking transmission went out and metal in the oil filter. not even 6 months later my car is have the exact same issues and my dealership is not want to do anything to fix my car even with having a warranty to cover everything they fixed.

Excessive oil consumption which has then in turned caused my catalytic converter to go out.

The engine sometimes stalls and does not accelerate in relation to the pressure applied to the gas pedal. this has caused me scenarios where i am waiting to make a left turn and putter into the lane of opposing traffic, instead of accelerating through the turn. another symptom of the engine is burning engine oil excessively. i am not aware if the issues are related or not.

The recall information said that for my model year of vehicle the service procedure hasn't been developed yet. the recall was in early sept.; it's now almost the end of february. what is a reasonable amount of time? you said if they don't resolve it in a reasonable amount of time to file a complaint.

After picking my grandson up from surgery on both legs went to get him out of the car and neither of the doors in the rear would open this is a problem with hyundai that has not been addressed they should be a recall on this this is a dangerous situation specially in a place like florida where we have bodies of water all over next to the roads in an emergencyyou will not be able to get out

2016 hyundai tucson rear passenger door will not open from the inside or outside. this happened january 2021. i was waiting for the entire fire recall to come up with a fix so i could take it in at the same time. now, the front driver door will not open from the outside, only the inside. hyundai is saying it is out of warranty and i will need to pay for both. quick research online shows me that there are hundreds of people also experiencing this problem. this should be evaluated as it is a safety issue if my car catches fire before there can be a fix for the recall and myself or my passengers are unable to get out of the car if it is on fire.

Rear passenger door is locked from the inside and out. this is a safety concern and needs to be recalled. all the locks on the door need to be upgraded and repaired not just replaced by the same faulty locks.

My back passenger door won't open from the inside or the outside. you can hear the power lock working, but the door won't open. the problem started out gradually where the door wouldn't open unless you pulled the handle more than once and now it won't open at all. it's very dangerous for people in the back seat because they can't get out in an emergency through that door.

The rear driver door is stuck closed no matter what i do. after looking online, it seems like multiple people are having the same issue with the door actuator going out. now if people are in my back seat, people are stuck and have to go out the other door. my fear now is the other door will go out also and someone will be stuck in the back of my car.

Originally when i purchased my car i complained to the dealer about my radio going black and they claimed it was due to the cold and brushed it off. now recently i had the same issue but now as i was driving straight on the highway all of the lights on the dash keep flickering on and off telling me to check every system. my car signals/hazards will not work. speedometer will not work along with blind spot recognition and other things.

The vehicle is less than 5 years old and i was told the steering column needs to be replaced. it clicks when ever the steering wheel is turned. i was told it is fine to drive it until i get it repaired but after reading what could happen that doesn't seem true. i have had the back passenger door latch replaced because it wouldn't open from the inside or outside. now to open my from passenger door you have to pull the door handle 3 times to get it to open. my drivers side door won't open from the outside. and the drivers side window will go up and down when trying to put just up or down.*dt*jb

Rear driver door stopped opening from inside and outside even though the handle moves freely and the locks are functioning (child safety is not engaged). a few months after that door stopped working the front passenger door outside handle fails to open 9 times out of 10 but locks still function. everything else about the doors work fine and there has been no trauma to the vehicle.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated the rear passenger's side door failed to open. the contact stated that the rear driver's and passenger's side doors were faulty and failed to open. the contact called local fox ann arbor hyundai (3975 jackson rd, ann arbor, mi 48103, (734) 663-7770) and the dealer was made aware of the failure. the vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. the manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 106,000.*dt*jb

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the passenger's side rear door failed to operate as needed. the door failed to open from outside or inside the vehicle. the contact had taken the vehicle to an independent mechanic who informed her that the defect was a safety issue. the contact was referred to nhtsa for assistance. neither the dealer nor the manufacturer were notified of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was unknown.

Rear driver side door actuator no longer works. unable to open door at all. car was parked.

Doors will not open. i see from reading onlinr this is a major issue. this has to be a big safty issue. i have a bacj door that will.not open at all.and now my front door can not open from the outside.

The rear passenger door could not be opened from the outside, even though the handle was not stuck. springfield hyundai in springfield, pa inspected and confirmed the problem, but did not fix because the vehicle was out of warranty. another shop replaced the door lock actuator.

The car seems to be acting as if there is an electrical fault. all of the safety sensors on the car are flashing and the power steering does not work. my wife and i currently are stationed overseas in italy and the hyundai dealership said to take it to hyuandai for repair. the hyundai dealership here refuses to touch it or even reply to us. the vehicle is not driveable.

The passenger side back door will not open when car is unlocked. the door will not open from the inside either. the handle has to be pulled forcefully several times before the door will open.

The left rear passenger door will not open from the inside nor from the outside which i feel causes a severe safety concern in the event of an emergency that requires immediate access to someone in the rear seat.

Unable to open the back passenger door because door lock actuator fails. won't open from inside (manually or with key fob) or outside thus trapping the passenger. this is a concerning safety hazard. the car is only 5 years old.

Both right side doors do not consistently open when first unlocked. this happens in a stationary position right after unlocking doors. once open, they are fine until the car is locked again. they will not open from either exterior handle or interior handle. this happened a while ago, but recently tried to get it fixed and found out i am out of warranty coverage. when i looked up how to repair it, i was shocked by how widespread the issue is.

Rear door does not open at all. locking mechanism must be broken or jammed. door cannot be opened from inside or outside the vehicle when locked or unlocked. no event occurred that caused this problem. this is a safety hazard.

This happened last month as well. drivers side rear door will not open while it is parked and on, it locks and unlocks but will not open from the inside or outside while it's unlocked. last time it fixed after pulling on it approximately 25 times total. i have tried manually and automatically locking and unlocking and trying to open but nothing works. this time is is not working and becomes a safety hazard especially with children.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the rear passenger's side door failed to open. the contact stated no warning light was illuminated. the vehicle was taken to the local dealer team hyundai of bend (2250 ne. hwy 20, bend, or 97701, 541) 749-4025) where it was diagnosed with needing the rear passenger's side handle to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer had been informed of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 63,000.

Excessive oil consumption resulted in engine failure with out warning lights appearing. driving down the road, the engine stopped running, battery, oil and check engine lights appeared. the car rolled to a stop on the shoulder of the road. the car then would not restart, but had power and battery life left due to the battery being 1 yr old. the car had to be towed to a mechanic. the mechanic cited engine failure and said it was due to oil consumption. the oil had large amount of metal in it despite it having 128k miles on it.

Rear right passenger door was getting stuck intermittently without opening for couple weeks. after that it has been stuck permanently. this issue started occurring intermittently when the vehicle was 60 months old.took it dealer, was unable to replicate it at the dealer place. it became a permanent issue when the vehicle was 61 months old,am being told that now the vehicle is out of warranty and i need to pay to fix this. its been 3 months now, the door is still stuck.

The lock actuators in the driver door and rear passenger door have failed. they vehicle will unlock but the doors will not open. in the event of a fire one could be trapped in the car due to the faulty latches. hyundai will not repair this at their expense as the vehicle is out of warranty. this is a widespread issues reported on several auto forums as well.

My child or anyone in the rear passenger side can not get out of their door because the door will not open at all even when unlocked this has been like this for 4 days no matter what i try the door will not open. this is not a malfuction this is acutally a safely hazzard. my child is traumatized and has nightmares because he fears he will die if there is a fire in the car he is autistic.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the rear driver's side door failed to open from inside or outside the vehicle. no warning lights were illuminated. the vehicle was not taken to a local dealer or an independent mechanic to be diagnosed or repaired. the manufacture was not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 47,255.

The rear passenger door of my vehicle will not open. i cannot open it from the outside or inside. it seems to be an issue with the door not unlocking even though the unlock tab is flipping. a quick google search shows many others with the same vehicle have the same issue. this is a huge safety hazard in the event of an emergency.

Door actuators fail and doors cannot be opened. this is a huge safety issue and hyundai has not addressed the issue with an updated design or recall on older failing door actuators. note, when i say old, these are 5-6 years old. as a first responder, i am appalled that this issue has not been addressed and resolved already. if i am trying to gain access to a person involved in a wreck and i have to request or perform advanced extrication simply because of poorly designed actuators then the families of those entrapped victims should be able to sue hyundai for damages.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving at slower speeds, the vehicle stalled without warning. the vehicle was restarted and driven to his destination. the vehicle was taken on several occasions to world car hyundai north (12908 interstate 35 north bldg 2, san antonio, tx 78233, (210) 667-2189) and the vehicle was rebooted 3 times for an unknown system failure. the contact stated that the failure persisted. the manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. the failure mileage was unknown. *js

All doors locked and won't open with key/fob. if a child is locked in there and i can't get inside this issue could be extremely dangerous. manufacturer refuses to fix.

Ongoing problem with doors not opening from inside the vehicle or outside. already repaired one at dealership under warranty, other 2 doors repaired and needing repair again. front drivers door and rear driver door currently effected. extremely unsafe if in an accident and two working doors are damaged and unoperational. hyundai says they don't have a problem but complaints on the internet are huge in numbers.

I have had a problem opening up my driver side back door sense summer of 2020 so i've taken the back door panel off and i pull on the wire from the inside to open it up. i've dealt with that just fine it's irritating but now my passenger side front is not wanting to open from the outside do i have to read across and open up the door if anybody is going to be on the passenger side. now the driver's side door has started doing it. so now i'm expected to climb in true the passenger rear door and up into the front seat or open the door from the inside and then walk back around my car. that is until the back passenger door decides to start doing the same thing and then i guess i'll have to climb in through the trunk? or maybe that'll be the next one to go? another issue that have been having a lot of trouble with is the front interior dome or the console the passenger side light doesn't like to come on most of the time, but occasionally it does. the biggest issue is the front headlights and the brake lights. so the headlights have been needing to be replaced more often than i ever heard of anybody replacing them, less than 6 month sometimes. other times that had like just goes out and then i have to get under the hood and hopefully get the cap off so that i can play with the fitting and hope that it will come back on. because i actually do most of my driving in the dark when it's night time so i kind of need my lights. sometimes that doesn't work but the next morning i will turn on the vehicle the light is working again?... i've been dealing with that issue for about a year as well. just recently within the last few months bee tail light or brake light has started doing the same thing. specifically the passenger brake light so far. i could sense there was some sort of electrical issue coming on but wouldn't have expected all of this, back to back at the same time.

While running errands driver door would not open after being unlocked with remote or with button on handle. driver door would only open when opened from the inside through the passenger side of the vehicle. vehicle will unlock but drivers door will not open from the outside. this seems to occur when vehicle is stationary after it has been locked.

My 2016 hyundai tucson was failing to accelerating after a stop, and shuddering / slowing down while driving. this is very alarming especially while driving on busy roads in which you could easily cause an accident by not being able to accelerate. i took my car to hyundai to find out it is an issue with the dual clutch transmission (again, in 2021) - while i have done my research and found there was a safety recall in 2016 for this issue i was surprised to find that hyundai would not cover the costs of repair. i have filed a claim with hyundai but have not received any contact back. my vehicle is unsafe to drive, and i am being told i will be charged storage fees if i leave it at the dealership service center without repair while i wait to settle my claim. the vehicle is unsafe to drive, due to an issue that has previously been recalled.

R/r door lock actuator failure. door will not open. safety hazard for anyone in rear seat to exit vehicle. appears to be a known issue that isn't addressed by the manufacturer. passenger got into car with no issue. 15 min drive and when arrived at destination door was inoperable. locks/unlocks with no issue. when pull handle from interior and exterior no response inside the door. $500+ to fix

Driver's rear door no longer opens reliably. this seems to be the first step to a common problem of the doors becoming completely inoperable. hyundai seems unwilling to deal with the problem.

The driver and passenger doors unlocking mechanisms stop working. the electrical system will work but the mechanism inside the door will not function completely and keeps you from being able to get into your car.

Door lock actuator failure. drivers side rear door would not open from inside or out. occupants could be trapped. 4 mos outside of 5 yr warranty. 200 miles remaining on 60,000 mi warranty. $800 repair at www.hyundaioforangepark.com/. hyundai message board say to expect passenger side to fail soon as well.

Door handle will not open back door, and front door handle driver side must be pulled multiple times before opening. rear door will not open at all. latch mechanism not working properly.

Three of the four doors have defects which prevent them from opening from the outside or inside, which is a major safety concern. the door lock acuator is what needs to be replaced. the right front door was replaced in 2018. one of the back doors was replaced in 2020, and now the other back door won't open due to the same issue. i often transport children and an elderly grandparent, all of whom sit in the back seat. if i had been in an accident, there would be no way to get them out of the vehicle. on top of the fact that this is clearly a manufacturer defect with the vehicle, i'm now concerned the driver's door will stop working soon, meaning i can't drive the vehicle at all. i contacted hyundai customer support since the vehicle is 1,000 miles over warranty and they said there is nothing they can do (conversation 4/5/21). five star hyundai of macon refused to put in a request to over-ride the warranty to get it fixed, since clearly it is a manufacturer problem with my vehicle. the vehicle hasn't been in any accidents that would have caused this issue and hyundai is apparently aware of the issue, as it frequently occurs with tucsons and elantras (per conversation with five star hyundai), yet refuses to do anything about it. because my vehicle is now at 61,000 miles they are saying it is no longer their responsibility and are not offering to assist in any way. the blind spot detector is also malfunctioning, not notifying when a vehicle is next to mine and occasionally going off when there is no vehicle at all. five star macon said this is also not under warranty anymore and said they don't know why it would be a problem but would require them removing my bumper and doing extensive diagnostic work before they'd know how to fix it.

Rear drivers side door will not open even when the door is unlocked. will not open from outside of the vehicle or from within the vehicle.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the driver's side front door failed to unlock using the keyfob. the contact stated that her daughter was in the vehicle at the time of failure and had to enter the vehicle through the front passenger's side door. the contact called suntrup hyundai south (5926 s lindbergh blvd, st. louis, mo 63123, (314) 254-8977) on three separate occasions and left voice messages each time. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was 62,400.

The rear passenger door of my 2016 hyundai tucson no longer opens at all, from the inside or the outside. as i have a young child and nephews who are regularly in my car in car seats, this is a serious safety concern. apparently, hyundai is not willing to take responsibility for this defect, which i have found is a problem across many hyundai years and models. the cost of a dealership to fix is upwards of $1000, which is prohibitive and unrealistic.

The rear passenger door (then a day later'doors) won't open from the inside or out even when manually unlocked whether or not the car is on or off. we were on a trip at the time and our kids were having to crawl over from the front seat. we called hyundai. their temporary fix was to unlock the car and jerk the handle hard from the outside. they said that the system sometimes' freezes up'. this works from the outside (not inside), and continues to freeze up even after ' the hyundai fix'. this is a problem with other 2016 hyundai models. if you look up the problem online, you will see many posts about it.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the rear driver's side and passenger's side doors failed to open or unlock. the vehicle was not taken to be diagnosed or repaired. a dealer was not contacted. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 52,000.

3 of the 4 doors do not open either from inside or outside , i get scared now not knowing if i'm going to get trapped in an emergency situation

When driving at a slow speed, such as in a line of cars going through a drive thru, the vehicle begins to skip. almost hopping along rather than slowly moving. i have observed it happening in both eco mode and regular driving mode. this is not a constant but frequent. i also have instances of where it doesn't pick up speed and takes time to shift gears. i think it may be the transmission skipping and not shifting gears appropriately causing it to hop or jump. at all time the care was in motion and on city streets never on a highways.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while the vehicle was stationary, the passenger's and driver's side door failed to unlock. the contact stated that there was no warning light illuminated. the vehicle was taken to abc hyundai (6825 redwood st, las vegas, nv 89118, (702) 475-8698) to be diagnosed. the contact was informed that the door lock actuator assembly needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not informed of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 47,000.

The rear passenger door will not open from the interior or the exterior. it was parked and i tried to open the door and it will not move. this is a huge safety issue because you cannot get out that door. this happened to 2 other doors also. one was covered because it was still under warranty, it is now past my warranty.

The rear passenger side door has stopped working suddenly, the vehicle was stationary and parked, and after working correctly just minutes before, now it won't open from either inside or outside the car, it is stuck in the closed position and it is very unsafe as that is the sidewalk facing door which won't open forcing people to exit on the street side. this seems to be a widespread problem affecting many 2016 tucson customers. https://www.cargurus.com/cars/discussion-t57988_ds1084478

The driver side front door will not open from the outside after it has been locked and unlocked with key fob or key. the vehicle was parked and locked with key fob then would not open. you have to climb through the passenger side and open from inside.

When trying to get into my car, i unlock my doors. with all doors unlocked i try to enter the driver door from the outside. it takes multiple pools on the handle for the drive door to get the latch inside the door to release and open the door. my door becomes stuck and i am unable to get inside my vehicle. this can be a potential safety issue, in dark parking lots, unsafe locations, preventing me from getting in my vehicle. i took my vehicle to hyundai dealer. they states nothing is wrong with my door and it works fine. this was approx apr in 2020. beginning this week my passenger side front door will now also not open from the outside, even if my door is unlocked. no matter how many times i pull the handle the passenger door wont release from the outside. i have to open the door from the inside.

Our car front driver door will not unlock from the outside with the remote fob or the door handle. the only way to open the door is to use the handle on the inside of the door. this happens continually now & started happening about 2 months ago for no identifiable reason. when approaching the car to go for a drive, we have to open the front passenger side door first & reach across to the driver side & unlock from the interior. no other way to do it. we searched online and this seems to be a very common issue with hyundai suvs, with other instances of doors not even being able to be opened from the interior either. it looks like there is a malfunctioning door "actuator". some cases have had to completely destroy the interior door panel to be able to access the mechanisms of the door to replace the actuator. since it is a very common problem, and a safety issue if people cannot open doors from inside or out, this should be a safety recall. really this is a serious safety issue if you cannot open your door to get out of the car in case of an emergency. please evaluate this asap & have hyundai issue a recall.

The rear passenger door wouldn't open either from inside or outside. this is a known issue and must be on a recall list. hyundai tucson produced between 2015 and 2016 have this issue and in korea, hyundai korea has been repairing this problem at no charge. (see below korean site) http://www.consumerwide.com/news/articleview.html?idxno=37459 hyundai usa should do the same. this is a safety issue!

The rear passenger side door would not open from the inside or outside. it started out as an intermittent problem where the door would not open on the first or second try but would eventually open. it quickly became a permanent problem where the door would not open at all. this is a huge safety issue as i have 2 young children in car seats in the back seat and need to be able to open both rear doors to get them in and out of the vehicle.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the rear driver's side door could not be unlocked, and would not open from inside or outside the vehicle. the cause of the failure was not yet determined. the local dealer lexington park hyundai located at 22514 three notch rd, lexington park, md 20653 was notified of the failure. the manufacturer was not yet contacted or notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 55,000. the vin was not available.*dt

Out of nowhere, the rear passenger door refuses to open. the remote can lock/unlock the locking knob, but the door is impossible to open from inside or outside. the vehicle was in a stationary state. this is a well-known problem amongst 2016 tucson owners. please refer to two online forums. https://www.hyundai-forums.com/threads/rear-passenger-door-wont-open.603329/ https://www.cargurus.com/cars/discussion-t57988_ds1084478 also, in korea, the same vehicle is on recall for the door latch problem. i believe this is a serious safety issue because if the door does not operate in case of emergency, how can somebody exit from the car to safety?

Passenger front and driver rear doors do not open to get in or out of vehicle. you get stuck in the car and cannot exit out these doors! real safety hazard if you get stuck in the car.

Back passenger door lock issue. door won't open from either inside the car or outside the car. this is a safety hazard. i could not get my granddaughter out of the car. the door would not open.

Both my front and rear drivers side door have been failing to open on my 2016 hyundai tucson. recently my rear drivers side door has completly failed to open (inside and outside) leaving me with one door to access my child in the backseat. i have to pull my drivers side door handle multiple times in order for it to "catch" and open. i took the car to lithia hyundai of fresno and they advised me that i need to repair both actuators and it is not considered a "safety issue" more of a "wear and tear" issue. this is a huge safety issue especially if you have kids and need to get out in an emergency.

The rear passenger door will not open posing a safety concern. many other owners of hyundai tucson owners have experienced the same issues. hyundai should be responsible for repair of this issue.

The door actuators on the hyundai keep failing which makes it so the doors cannot be opened. i've already replaced 2 and had 2 more go out this past week. this is very dangerous in the case of an accident. hyundai will not acknowledge it is a widespread problem.

Neither back door will open from inside or outside. my driver door handle takes two pulls to open after being unlocked. my second row is essentially non-usable. i have seen hundreds of complaints about this issue with hyundai's yet have not seen a recall for them. this is a huge safety hazard.

Driver side will not open was unlock it is a safety matter you can not get into your car if your life is threatened or child is side you can not get door open . you can here it u lock but just pulling handle with out enter. i'm not the only one having this problem and company want fix this safety matter a recall need to be done

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while the vehicle was stationary, the rear passenger's side door would not open from inside or outside the vehicle. there was no warning light illuminated. the vehicle was taken to rosen hyundai of kenosha (6701 120th ave, kenosha, wi 53142) to be diagnosed. the contact was informed that the dual latch actuator needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was informed of the failure. the contact was informed that the vin was not under recall. the failure mileage was approximately 120,000.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the driver's side door failed to lock securely. the contact took the vehicle to ray skillman southside hyundai (1300 us-31, greenwood, in 46143, (317)886-9002) who replaced the door latch and the door panel. the contact stated that the rear driver's side door also experienced the failure. the contact had taken the vehicle to the same dealer who stated the same repair was needed however, the vehicle was not yet repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 43,977.

Rear vehicle doors would not open either from the inside or the outside, progressive in nature over the course of several months. at the time of repair, the door wouldn't open. my elderly mother with limited mobility was stuck in the back of the car for over an hour until i was able to get the car door open. if my mother was in an emergent medical situation, i don't know how we would have gotten her out. i can't imagine if a mother with young children and car seats would manage in a safety situation. this could be a situation between life and death. the hyundai dealership was only minimally supportive of this. it is not acceptable to pay $898.23 to be able to open and close the doors on a car that is less than 5 years old. this is a huge safety situation that has been reported over and over again across many car websites. we have been a longtime hyundai customer, and find the lack of recall for such a glaring safety situation unacceptable. at some point, someone will lose their life because of this. i strongly urge that this matter be looked into in depth, and that this would result in a safety recall. i have the documents from the dealership for the repair to the doors that specifically state their concerns for this being a safety issue. being able to get into and out of a car safely is not a luxury, it is a necessity. to pay nearly 1,000 dollars to do so is not acceptable, and a problem trust with hyundai products. i strongly urge your organization to look into the huge and growing number of hyundai tuscon suvs that have this problem, and to initiate a safety recall.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the locking mechanism on the rear driver's side door malfunctioned and the door would not open from inside nor outside of the vehicle. the cause of the failure was not yet determined. the local dealer hyundai of las vegas (7150 w sahara ave ste b, las vegas, nv 89117) was notified of the failure and an appointment was scheduled. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 20,000. the vin was not available.

Multiple sensors and lights on the dash are illuminated, including the airbags, brakes, traction control, hill assist, tire pressure, etc. i've been told that this is related to a vacuum pump issue. other hyundais are under recall for this same issue, but my vin does not show up as covered. this is an extreme hazard as the car is not functioning properly, and if the sensor are not functioning, properly, there is no guarantee that the airbags or other safety systems will function as intended with this underlying problem. the recall needs to be expanded to include all of the 1.6 tucsons, as it's obviously an issue across the manufacturer and multiple models. this problem happens when the vehicle is in motion, and these systems engage randomly causing the vehicle to function poorly. additionally this affects emissions.

The passenger side rear door suddenly would not open from the inside or outside. the child lock was disengaged, and no amount of locking/unlocking would fix it. we were in the car and it worked normally, then when we arrived to our destination could not get my kids out. there is no damage to the door handle from the inside or outside. it happened out of nowhere. this is incredibly dangerous, as not only could i bit get my kids out quickly in an emergency, i also can't let them out curbside, and am forced to pull them out of the back seat with cars flying by. i have major concerns with all of the remaining doors failing, and it seems like this is a chronic widespread issue with hyundai vehicles, and tucsons in particular. i'm fearful that the doors will just seize up and we won't be able to get out of the car.

Doors won't open. door lock actuator is faulty. current replacement does not fix... and problem repeats. hyundai needs to fix and recall. this is a wide spread problem for this car and a crazy safety issue!

Both rear doors will not open neither from the outside or the inside, the door actuators failed 3 months apart. i'm very concern childern are involved, and i am not safety confident with the other two front doors! this is a serious safety matter - hyundai has done nothing to correct the issue except replace the actuators with the same style faulty actuators that will fail again - this is not acceptable for safety of my family

Car fails to move forward from stopped position. when gas peddle is applied pressure, car does not move, engine revs up and then car lunges forward. in slow traffic, car lunges forward with no acceleration on the gas pedal. when pulling into traffic, car will cease to move for a couple seconds and then take off. we are extremely worried about getting into an accident with this vehicle.

The passenger side front and rear doors can no longer be opened either from the inside or outside even when th vehicle is unlocked. the mechanism that activates the latches seems to be working as it can be heard on both doors, but the latches themselves seem to fail frequently. this results in a safety hazard since exiting the vehicle in case of an accident where the the only side that's not blocked is the right one becomes impossible except by crawling through the door windows which may not fit the occupant(s).

Passenger side door ( front) and driver side door (rear) are getting increasingly difficult to open even when they are unlocked.

The left-back passenger door now will not open from outside. i think it is a safety issue. in case of an accident, i would able to get my kids fast from the car.

When driving uphill on vasco rd between brentwood, ca & livermore, ca started slowing down the more gas i gave the slower it went then suddenly there was a clattering sound all panel lights came on and engine died and would not restart. tow truck driver said my engine blew. i usually get my oil changed between 5k & 7k . i just had my oil changed 600 miles ago. it is a 2.0 hyundai 2016 tucson. i read the nhtsa fined hyundai for failure to recall engine failures on their 4 cyn and wondered if my car should have been included in any recalls.

Passenger front and rear doors do not open. latches frozen and dog was trapped in front seat. dog was able to crawl over driver seat to get out. dealership atlantic hyundai in west islip ny evaluated car and will charge over $1600 to repair two doors with 68,000 miles on car out of warranty. this problem is corrected in korea without a charge, according to my internet research.

My rear passenger side door does not open from the inside of the car and also from the outside of the car when unlocked. this is a huge safety concern as anyone sitting in the back seat would be trapped inside the car in an emergency especially if my grandson were strapped in his car seat in the back and i had to get him out of the car as quickly as possible in an emergency. i called the dealership where i bought the car and they acted surprised even though this is clearly a known issue as i discovered while researching this problem on various blogs. i haven't taken my car to the dealership yet, i'm trying to determine if this will be covered under my 5 years/60,000 mile warranty as my car is right on the edge with my car having 55,000 miles and being 5 years and 2 months old. this problem happened very suddenly and we had no warning at all. the door worked when we left home for a trip and when we reached our first stop 60 miles later, the door would not open from inside or outside.

When unlocking the doors with key fob, all the doors besides the driver's side, will open. the drivers side won't open at first. have to unlock and relock the car several times just to open the door on the drivers side. the same thing is happening when sitting inside the passenger seat on the left handside of the driver, the door won't open from inside out. the door has to be open by someone on the outside. this is been happening a lot to many people.

I have had three of the four doors unable to open at different time before repairing them. this is a safety issue putting my daughter trapped in the vehicle with the only way out to climb over the seats. if in an accident she would be unable to get out of the car quickly. i don't understand why this hasn't been addressed by nhtsa yet. having a vehicle that could trap you in it is unsafe. one door was repaired when still under warranty, the next was repaired and paid for and now it's happened to another door that needs repairs and finally the drivers door appears it's going to have the same thing happen to it. currently once the vehicle is unlocked you have to pull on the door handle twice before it opens. first pull still feels locked second pull opens it.

The diver side rear door will not open. does not open from outside or the inside. if this happens to the other rear door a person could get trapped inside the car.

My passenger side door and back door not opening from outside. we have a kid in the seat so we have a child lock in the back. because of that we couldn't able to open the door. when i called hyundai about that they said they will first evaluate for that i need to pay and then they charge me for the 2 doors. this is very absurd.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that a week after purchasing the vehicle, the check engine warning light illuminated. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed. the mechanic was unable to determine the cause of the failure. the mechanic informed the contact that the warning light would be reset. while performing a final test drive, the mechanic became aware of smoke coming from under the hood of the vehicle. the mechanic pulled over and attempted to open the hood but was unable to do so. the mechanic then noticed fire coming from underneath the vehicle. the fire department arrived and extinguished the fire. no one was injured. a police report was filed. the vehicle was towed to a tow yard by the police. the contact was made aware that the vehicle was included in nhtsa campaign number: 20v543000 (service brakes, hydraulic) which was the cause of the fire. the vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 60,000.

Oil consume really fast, or oil burn really quick (it supposed to works 5000 miles after oil change, but its burn about 1500-2000 miles). because of that problem engine get heat really quick and their is maximum possibility for fire (due to heat), fire may cause lack of engine oil. power (pick up) of car is really low, it is really slow when stop and go on the road, either freeway or on the street way. if a car could not pick up or drive forward as normal standard their is great possibility for accident, in freeway more possible and street way as well. i made web based research about these problems, most of the 2016 hyundai tucson facing this problem, means this is not my personal problem but there is problem all of hyundai tuscon of this model. so, hyundai must solve this problem. because they know car was defective while they sold us, but defect broke out after long time. there are several 2016 hyundai tucson facing typically same problem. this fact proved that car was defective while they sold it to their customers. most of the time i change oil and do servicing at hyundai dealer, but they never tell me about this problem. but when i realized it my warranty was expired. i went to inspect my vehicle with hyundai dealer but they want to charge to cure this problem, but, if their is manufacturing defect they have to take care free of cost. because while they sale the car they did not revealed this problem it is misrepresentation. police, insurance representatives or other did not inspected my vehicle. their were not any warning lamps message or other symptoms of the problem until now, but when we drive we can feel it. please do the web based short research to confirm my issues, and help us to solve this problem. in addition, they did not notice me about 2020 break recall, i know this form this web site today.

I had a problem with my driver door not opening when i originally purchased this vehicle 2 years ago. the dealer fixed it for me that time. it happened again to my rear driver side door. it starts off taking a few pulls to open the door, then after a couple weeks, the door stops unlatching all together, can’t open it from the inside or outside. rear passenger door went a few months after that, so i have no access to the back seat. drivers door just started having the problem again too. was told the problem was the door lock actuator when i initially got it fixed. from what i can tell, a lot of people have this problem, it’s a know issue with the 2016 tucson’s, and a safety issue at that. what if there are children or elderly people in the back seat and this was an issue during a car crash? i can’t pay to replace a bad part every few months only to have the problem happen again. hyundai needs to offer a solution to this problem, not just replacing the same faulty part.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the passenger’s side rear door had ceased in the lock position. the contact had not taken the vehicle to the dealer to be diagnosed. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 89,362.

Driver's side rear door will not open. was working fine - then suddenly neither the inside nor outside handle will open door when unlocked. this is a concerning safety issue since i use this vehicle to transport my 2 grandchildren in car seats - and creates a hazardous situation in an emergency. internet forums are full of reports of this same issue with this particular year/model of tucson. also - there is evidence that hyundai korea is aware of this problem - and has initiated steps to offer owners replacement of all door latches to remedy the issue. here is a weblink to the korean page that spells out some of the details: http://www.consumerwide.com/news/articleview.html?idxno=37459 fyi - i have owned and driven cars for almost 50 years - and have never had a vehicle where the vehicle doors just stopped functioning like this....

Passenger side rear door lock failed at 71000 miles. could not open door from outside or inside.

My front passenger door and rear driver passenger door will not open from the outside or the inside. issue with door latch mechanism. mechanism was repaired approx. 1 yr ago on passenger rear door. safety issue since doors can not be opened from inside if am emergency happened. child age 5 rides in car regularly. big safety concern.

Unknown- the rear passenger door won’t open from the outside or the inside of the car. and now this issue is happening with both rear doors and the drivers side door. in order to get into the drivers seat, you have to get in through the passenger side door and crawl over. when i google this safety concern, it seems like this has happened too many people. i’m concerned because if this has happened to others and if anyone gets into a car accident, no one can get out, without trying to break a window and crawl out.

The locking mechanism of the driver's door as well as the rear door on the driver's side has malfunctioned. the driver's door requires the exterior handle to be pulled 3-6 times before the door will open (it opens on the first pull from the inside. the rear door does not open at all from either the inside or the outside. the issue with the driver's door started to occur in feb 2021, or at approximately 50k - 55k miles. the issue with the rear door started to occur in may 2021, or at approximately 55k - 58k miles. i have not yet had the issue inspected by a dealer or independent mechanic, but will be soon. the rear door is a significant safety issue. if a severe enough accident occurred including a fire or rollover, or a collision to the passenger side that rendered the passenger side doors inoperable, occupants in the rear seat would not be able to exit the vehicle. i am also worried that the driver's door and possibly the passenger side doors will begin to not function at all. i have ready on many hyundai forums that this is a common issue to all hyundai models manufactured in the 2010s.

The left side rear door will not open from the inside or the outside of the vehicle .. also now the driver door will not open from the outside of the vehicle and getting worse by the day. not being able to get my child in or out of the car on the left side is very worriesome if there was any type of an emergancy. it has not been inspected as of yet but i am taking it into the dealership tomorrow 6.17.21. there were no warning lights or notification describing the defect of the doors.

I am having the same problem as hundreds of others were the door actuators in 3/4 of my doors no longer function properly. driver's side rear door cannot be opened from the inside or out. front two doors have to be opened from the inside. passenger side rear door is the only one that works properly.

Left passenger door will not open. i have found multiple examples on the internet. the door will not open using the inside or outside handle.

Rear passenger doors will not open even when unlocked, child safety feature is not on. this is a safety concern in an emergency situation. doors will not open from the inside or outside.

Door actuators are failing causing doors to not open/be permanently locked. i have paid to repair one (which i don't have any confidence in), it's happening to another already, and countless others i've read are having the same issue. i hope that i don't run into the issue in a real emergency.

When obviously unlocked, can feel lock disengage and see lock indicator pop out, door does not open unless handle is pulled multiple times. driver side was repaired under warranty; both passenger side doors have the same problem but started after warranty.

My rear driver side door will not open from the outside or the inside. this is a serious safety issue. if a person or even a child is in the back of my car, how are they supposed to exit the vehicle in an emergency if they can't get the door open? hydundai is saying the door not latching is not a safety concern, it is.

Latch assembly-rear door lh failed. could not open door from outside or inside. replaced on 06/26/2021 latch assembly-rear door rh failed. could not open door from outside or inside. replaced on 02/09/2018

The rear doors do not open from inside or outside. we have attempted to pull the battery for a potential reset, without success. both doors became inoperable simultaneously. the electric locking mechanisms work. the electric windows go up and down. we noticed this on a multi state road trip with backseat passengers. in the event of an accident, the backseat passenger would not have egress from the vehicle.

Several doors are unable to be opened from both the inside and outside. this is very concerning to me, as in the event of an emergency passengers (including children in car seats) will be able to evacuate the car. after some research it appears many people have this issue with different models of hyundai vehicles from that time period and yet no recall has been put out. i have never been in an accident in this vehicle and the doors are not dented or otherwise damaged. this problem started slowly, with the door handle not opening on the first try but opening after a few pulls. over time it got the point where it will not open at all, inside or outside. and over time this has happened with all 4 doors. the two rear doors will not open at all. the front two doors are finicky and take several tries before opening.

In my 2016 tucson, the issue started with the front passenger door not opening even though you can hear the car unlocking when clicking the key fob. this issue has now started on the drivers side door, with both the key fob not opening the door as well as manually trying to open the door with the key. this is a serious safely issue and should not be happening. this issue runs the risk of someone being stuck in the car, with no way of getting to them. there was no pre warning of the issue starting. it just happened one day and from that point forward has been progressing to each door. getting in and out of the car in the event of an accident or emergency poses an issue if the doors do not open. this is made worse by not being able to manually open the door with a key.

The back doors will not open from the inside or the outside. i have seem multiple people complain about this and yet still not recall issued. this is a huge safety problem. i can't use half of my car because if i somehow get passengers back there and we get in an accident.. they are stuck. if my dog rides back there and we get in an accident and god forbid he can't jump to the front, he is stuck. this needs to be recalled asap. there is no reason for these door handles to just stop working. my front door handle also has to be pulled twice for me to be able to open it.

Rear driver side door latch will not open when unlocked. believe it is actuator issue. will not open from inside or outside. front driver side lock will intermittently not release lock/will not open.

Door handle mechanism won’t open the door. it started with one back door and now all but the driver door are stuck shut. it is a safety issue for passengers who cannot get out of the car. please read the forums to see how many of us hyundai owners are experiencing this issue making it an obvious problem with faulty equipment. thanks

The driver side door will not open.. you can unlock with the fob or button on the door, or the mechanical key. the same issue will all methods. inside or outside latch, but the handle will not open the door at all or there is a long delay. very dangerous if you needed to exit the vehicle quickly.

Rear driver side door handle stuck and unable to open from outside or inside. extremely unsafe due to not being able to exit the vehicle in case of fire or accident.

When the vehicles at a complete stop and you go to press on the gas to accelerate the car moving forward, the car stutters. it happens at stop signs, stoplights, anywhere that the car is at a complete stop. this happens every single time. the car has been taken into the dealership and they say everything is fine and nothing is wrong. however i’ve taking it to a local mechanic and he said that he can definitely feel the stutter in the vehicle.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the passenger’s side rear door locking mechanism had failed and the door could not be opened from inside or outside the vehicle. additionally, the passenger’s side front door and the driver’s side rear door could not be opened from outside the vehicle. the cause of the failure was not yet determined. the local dealer and manufacturer were not yet contacted. the failure mileage was 41,000.

Rear passenger side door will not open from the inside or outside. happened right after parking. tried using the remote key and manually unlocking, flipped child safety lock on and off, nothing worked. the door won't budge. passenger had to climb over our child's carseat to get out on the other side. major safety hazard if the car were on fire or flipped over, especially for our child whose carseat is in the back. no warning or error message in the car. we've researched and found thousands of reports from other hyundai tucson 2016's with the same exact issue (often starting with one door and then spreading to all four others). i don't feel safe driving the car in case it spreads to the other doors. this needs to be a recall asap. happy to have our car inspected if needed. have not yet gone to a dealer but plan to soon.

2016 hyundai tucson rear passenger door is stuck closed. when door has been unlocked, door cannot be opened either from the inside or the outside of the vehicle using the door handles. the passenger becomes trapped inside the car and should something happen, they cannot exit the car immediately if needed. someone on the outside of the car is unable to open the door to assist any passenger trapped inside. a dealer or independent service has not yet reproduced or confirmed the problem and i will be contacting my dealer to have them address the issue. however, after researching this problem, i found numerous posts complaining that this fix is very costly and it is possible that all four doors will experience this same problem soon. at this time, no manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others have inspected the vehicle but based on the numerous complaints online, this issue should already be a recall on these vehicles. the only symptom was that the door did not open once it had been unlocked.

Towne hyundai ,denville, nj, has been giving me the runaround since march 2021, when i first contacted them about the recall. three conversations over the next several month got me nowhere. they said they dont have parts. i even contacted their coprporate headquarters, with no results.

The doors are failing. eventually, the actuator fails and cables stretch due to use. the door cannot be opened from the inside nor the outside. in an emergency situation where a door needs to be opened from the exterior even when the doors are unlocked, an emergency responder would not be able to access the vehicle. additionally, if the vehicle had an emergency situation where the occupants of the vehicle needed to disembark the vehicle, the vehicle doors do not open even though child locks are no engaged. this is a very serious and high risk of concern and issue and must be brought forward for review and resolved as soon as possible. bringing this vehicle to the dealership for repairs does not always guarantee proper repair. if the actuators are at fault and that is being replaced with the same original equipment manufacture parts, this is going to be an ongoing issue possibly deadly.

On may 17th my engine locked up as i was pulling out of a driveway. check oil light came on a split second before the car locked up. it was not even enough time for me to safely turn off the engine. upon my own inspection there was no oil on my oil stick even though car receives regular maintenance. car is now at the closest dealership for total engine replacement. problem was confirmed to be an issue with the bearings. communication with the dealership has been poor but i believe inspection is available. they have not completed the repair as they are waiting on a back ordered part. i was about 1.5 hours away from home about to head over a very dangerous 2 lane bridge with no shoulder. i think i would have lost it if i broke down on the bridge.

The back drivers side door will not open. can not get child out of car in an emergency situation because the door can not be unlocked or opened. this seems to be a problem for other hyundai tuscons. there was no warning about this issue. i went to open the door to let my child out and the door could not be opened.

The driver side window motor failed and window is stuck in the closed position. the front passenger window motor has failed and that window is stuck in the down position. last, we are unable to open the driver side rear door where my daughter sits from the inside or outside. this is not only frustrating but a major safety issue for occupants in the vehicle.

My car is a 2016 hyundai tucson with about 24,000 miles on it and bought brand new. i have had multiple issues from the beginning. i would have issues with my car turning off then it would leave me in stuck and wouldn't excelerate and almost killed me multiple times so i had it in the shop for the third time. finally, it was soo bad that they put a new transmission in under my almost expired 5 year warranty. my car has been doing better since the new transmission so that is good so far, but wanted to tell you since other ppl are struggling with this as well and should be a recall and we should not have to pay for it at all. second complaint is that my car is now experiencing door lock issues which makes it a huge safety issue as well. it unlocks the actual button inside but the handle takes multiple pulls to open from the outside. so i had to crawl over to push the door open to get in the passenger side, sometimes it will not open at all which is very scary. it all sounds like these make and models are the pits when i google issues. so i am hoping to add this to a safety recall which it definitely should fall under one. thank you for your time and consideration :)

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the driver’s side and both rear passenger’s side doors failed to open using the door handles from the outside with door locks unlocked. the contact stated no warning light was illuminated. the vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. the manufacturer was informed of the failure and the contact was awaiting a response. the failure mileage was approximately 24,000.

The left passenger door wont open from inside and outside. i have a child that is still in a car seat and this is a huge safety issue. i have to make sure he sits on the right side so i can open the door if there became an emergency.

All dashboard lights turned on and speedometer stopped working while driving. vehicle accelerated and braked without driver input.

Rear passenger side door will no open from the inside or outside. additionally, have to pull on the driver's side door forcefully at least three times in order to open when attempting to enter the vehicle. my safety and the safety of my passengers is in jeopardy if we are unable to exit or people are unable to properly enter the vehicle in an emergency. there were no warnings provided by the vehicle before the issue began.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the passenger’s side rear door would not open when unlocked from either inside or outside the vehicle. the contact had not taken the vehicle to be diagnosed or repaired. neither the dealer nor the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 55,000. the vin was unavailable.

88000 mile tucson se with 2.0l dohc gdi motor, has had all regular preventative maintenance intervals, last oil change + other maintenance at 84400 miles by hyundai. check engine light came on for intake camshaft timing over-advanced (p0011); noted increasing engine noise and performance loss while driving. made appointment with dealership immediately. hyundai dealership inspected and claimed "almost no oil left and sludge present in oil". service manager advised possible cause could be piston ring failure. no indication of low oil pressure on vehicle. safety concern is engine failure without warning due to seizing if the oil level and sludge are as bad as dealership claimed, especially at the rate of oil consumption over the mileage interval.

Rear passenger side door handle suddenly will not open from the inside or outside of the car. only 34,000 miles on the car and rarely use the back seats or doors. door handle worked fine and a short drive later no longer opens from inside or outside.

The rear door will not open. the vehicle only has 52,000 miles and nothing was done to cause this failure. after research, his is a known issue with the hyundai tucson and could be a safety issue if passengers need to exit the vehicle quickly. the door actuator's in certain years of the tucson are known to fail.

My transmission gears shift keeps on sticking in the park position and also i’ve been having to replace my left side parking lights i believe it’s an electric problem or fuse and the dealership seems to can’t fixed this issue with my vehicle each time i take it there

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the passenger’s side rear door lock failed to unlock from inside or outside the vehicle. the contact stated that the door remained locked. the contact had spoken with the dealer however, an appointment was not yet scheduled. the vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 20,000.

I not only have a recall on my vehicle but i also have a serious problem with acceleration. on multiple occasions i've almost gotten into accident due to my vehicle accelerating at a very low speed or not accelerating at all.

Financed the vehicle in july of 2019. after about 6 months of having the vehicle the right back brake light stopped working. light bulb, socket, and fuses were changed but theres still an issue. i also noticed that i was having a problem with acceleration. just recently i was on the highway on my way to work, as i was trying to accelerate my speed was going down, my vehicle basically wouldn't move. it started making this awful loud almost whistling sound. i thought i was going to die. i havent used my vehicle since. the vehicle also still has the same inspection sticker on it from the dealership. i have been unable to pass state inspection due to these ongoing issues.

Rear drivers side door latch is locked shut and will not open from the inside or outside. this is a safety issue because if someone is riding in the back seat and the vehicle was to start on fire or is in a crash and the person sitting there is unable to escape, due to the door being locked shut, they would die. i took the vehicle to the dealer and their solution was to replace the latch in the door. this door handle/latch has rarely been used and has been well taken care of.

Rear passenger and driver door handles do not open from the outside or the inside. i can hear the locks clicking but the handle just will not open the door from either side. also, after unlocking my driver door handle, i have to pull it twice for it to open. this is a huge safety issue. i cannot have anyone ride in my backseat. it is essentially useless and it seems it is just a matter of time that my driver door handle go out also and i get stuck or cannot enter through my door. this is not normal wear and tear.. this is a malfunction and from what i have read is very widespread.

Brakes feel like abs is always on. feel unsafe to drive. was told by hyundai dealer that i need a new steering column and no explanation on how something like this can just break. less than 60k miles when this issue started with brakes. i'm the first and only owner of this vehicle. the other safety issue is the doors not opening. 3 out of 4 doors have problems opening from inside and outside. this forum explains exactly what is happening to my doors. https://www.hyundai-forums.com/threads/rear-passenger-door-wont-open.603329/

Hyundai tucson door latch failure. unable to open rear passenger door from the inside or the outside. if i were to be involved in an accident with passengers in the vehicle there would be no way for the passengers to exit the vehicle, which could result in someone dying. this vehicle has only 55,000 miles on it and hyundai is aware that this is an issue on their vehicles but is failing to address it. would like hyundai to address this issue before it does result in a fatality.

1. back passenger door won’t open from inside or outside 2. aeb and bds sensor light stays on on the dashboard. no wreck and cleaned all sensors but warning lights remains on.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the driver’s side rear and passenger’s side front door would not open from inside or outside the vehicle. the dealer repaired the front driver’s side door latch a year ago. the vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. the dealer and manufacturer were not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 95,000.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while driving approximately 5 mph and attempting to accelerate, there was a grinding noise coming from the vehicle. additionally, if the accelerator pedal was not depressed a certain way, the vehicle would stall. the oil light would illuminate upon starting the vehicle and would disappear after a while. the contact would restart the vehicle 3-4 times before the vehicle would regain proper functionality. the failure occurred again while driving 50 mph. the doors failed to open from the inside or the outside except for the driver side door. however, for the driver’s door the contact had to lift the handle twice before the door would open. the contact took the vehicle to a certified mechanic. the vehicle had not been diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 81,000.

While driving home from work, we were stopped at a four way intersection. my boyfriend asked me if i heard this knocking noise. i said he did and we were trying to figure out if it was the vehicle in front of us because i didn't have any warning lights on my dash indicating any kind of issue. the jeep in front of us pulled away and we immediately could tell it was my vehicle. when accelerating through the intersection the vehicle was very slow to pick up speed and the knocking sound got louder and more frequent. as we were pulling into our driveway the car again had issues picking up speed, we live up a steep hill and i was worried we weren't going to make it. the oil light came on for a split second and went back off. i was not at my mileage for an oil change but my boyfriend said he was going to check it. he pulled the dipstick out and it was completely dry. he put two and a half quarts of oil in and it barely showed on the dipstick. he put another two quarts in and we let it sit. we turned it back on hoping it wouldn't make the knocking noise but it did. we took it to my mechanic who does my oil changes and he inspected the vehicle and took photos to show that there was no oil leak so he could only conclude that the engine was burning the oil for some reason. we took the car to a hyundai dealer where they informed me that the engine was ruined and it would need to be completely replaced. they told me that it could be covered under the warranty and they would turn it in. after a week of hearing nothing, hyundai offered to pay for 50% of the repair costs. i think this is absolutely ridiculous since there was no indication letting me know that my vehicle needed oil and it is clearly a problem with their engine that caused it to burn up all the oil when i was faithful about my oil changes. my mechanic printed all of the records of oil changes being completed on time and now they expect me to pay for this.

Initially, a couple weeks ago my back passenger side door stopped opening consistently from the inside. locking and unlocking the door repeatedly would fix it. now, with the key or inside unlock buttons, the driver and passenger side front door will visibly unlock but not open from the outside until the car has been opened from the inside - meaning you have to crawl through the back to get your doors open. the doors do not always open from the inside, as well, across the board now. that’s a huge safety risk if there were an accident or fire.

This safety problem has now occurred twice. the passenger door is sticking and takes 5 or 6 times to pull on the handle to open the door. the door opens from the inside but not the outside. this same problem occurred in 2020 on the drivers door. the safety of others are put at risk because i have elderly parents that need to be transported and the door can not be open. this problem was reported to the dealer about a year ago since it occured on the other door(drivers door) of the car. the vehicle has only been inspected by the service department at the dealership. there were no warnings or messages prior to the problem failure.

Issue: the rear passenger door will not open from inside and outside. we had set the child-lock to enabled, so diagnosing/troubleshooting from the inside is not possible. frequent and consecutive pulls on the exterior door handle do not provide any opening results. listening to the door panel when using the key fob or door lock toggle, it appears to be disengaging and engaging the lock; or at least it sounds the same as the other doors when locking/unlocking. we have two children we transport that are still in car seats. -- situation or events that could have caused this issue: none. was working the morning before. the vehicle has not had any minor impacts to any part of the body (no accidents or bumps, etc). -- risk of safety/death in an emergency: we believe this to be a safety issue in the event of an emergency (flooding, door collapsed on its side, etc.) -- inspection: pending via dealership -- warning lamps: none

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the rear passenger’s side door failed to open without warning. the contact stated that the lock and unlock function operated as designed however, the door would not upon from the inside or outside. the contact took the vehicle to the dealer and was informed that they had to hire a locksmith to repair the door. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 57,000.

Rear passenger door will not open from inside or out. this happened with no warning. grandchild was in rear seat and could not get out. this is a safety issue. the door actuators should be recalled.

In late 2020 my airbag had to be replaced for numerous malfunctions, at the same time my passenger side front door would not open on the first try with the key fob. 8 months later, now my driver door is doing the same thing and i'm no longer under warranty. it's ridiculous this isn't a recall with so many similar complaints. my doors unlock but still won't open until i tug on it numerous times. if it stops working completely it is a real safety hazard.

First, in 2019, my front driver’s side door stopped working. i could only open it from the inside if i kept my doors unlocked and eventually couldn’t open it at all and i had to crawl in and out of the passenger seat when it wasn’t working. the dealership repaired it because it was under warranty but i still had to pay for everything but the part. now, in 2021 my front passenger door is doing the same thing. what’s worse? my rear passenger door won’t open at all. i have two children and i have to pull them out of the window on occasion. we had to pull over on the freeway in an emergency and i had to pull my children out of the window. if we’re in an accident i’m terrified of what will happen since we can’t use half of the doors. this is a major safety issue and i’m terrified for my family to use this vehicle. since my warranty expired 3 months before the second and third door had the issue, it’s going to cost me over $1400 to get this repaired. i’m a single mother of two and this is causing hardship in addition to the safety issue. i’m getting it repaired and i can update with the invoice of the repairs.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the vehicle failed to accelerate over 20 mph while driving. there were no warning lights illuminated. the vehicle was taken to the local dealer and was diagnosed with a dirty catalytic converter. the vehicle was not repaired. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and the contact was informed that the transmission needed to be replaced. the manufacturer was not contacted. the failure mileage was approximately 94,000.

I have been having problems with the oil burning very quickly in-between oil changes. this last time, i was driving the car and it started shaking really bad. i was at a stop and when the light turned green, my car would barely accelerate. once it did start going, it felt as though it did not want to go into the correct gear. hyundai states that it will take about 2 weeks to fix as they have 15 other cars in with the same complaints.

Rear driver side door could not be unlocked and opened. faulty door actuator lock which has been replaced by dealer at a cost. do not have the failed part. no ones safety put at risk. however i feel it is a safety issue as emergency egress from the rear could be affected.

The latch mechanism in all doors is malfunctioning. the rear doors do not open at all and the front drivers side door only opens sometimes. this is a known defect in the design of the hyundai tuscon door latch mechanism. this is a safety issue because the doors are inoperable, possibly trapping a person in a vehicle.

Three months ago my driver's side window stuck in the up position, the next time i drove it worked fine but the time after that it stuck again. the window lock is not on, it is now permanently stuck in the up position and will not go down. one month ago my passenger side rear door stuck in the closed position. no attempt to lock and unlock worked to release it and the child safety lock is not on. it seems the handle is not engaging. these issues are not covered under warranty or by recall. i think both these issues are safety hazards.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving 35 mph, the tpms warning light illuminated. the contact was able to drive to her destination. the contact stated that currently there were multiple warning lights illuminated. the contact was unable to start the vehicle or shift out of the park. the contact took the vehicle to the local dealer who was made aware of the failure. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 71,000.

Very common problem in the 2016 hyundai tucson that is a safety hazard. the locking mechanism becomes unresponsive and the doors can only be unlocked from within. the driver door in this vehicle specifically can no longer be unlocked from the outside. in case of an emergency situation the driver would ne be able to be pulled by opening the door, the window must be broken or someone else must enter the vehicle to unlock the driver side door from within, assuming the doors are unlocked.

We have had 3 doors malfunction to the point where they can't be opened (even from the inside) and need to be repaired. this is a safety issue because it could prevent safe exit from the car in the event of an accident. this is a commonly reported issue with 2016 tucsons and should be the subject of a recall. for more information see here: https://www.hyundai-forums.com/threads/rear-passenger-door-wont-open.603329/page-4

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving 40 mph, the vehicle lost motive power with the check engine warning light illuminated. the contact pulled over and had the vehicle towed to a local dealer. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was informed of the failure and was awaiting a response. the failure mileage was approximately 116,000.

Both back doors fail to open from the inside or outside and the front doors are starting to fail as well.

The front driver door handle on the outside is not opening! i have to pull on it about 25 times for it to open. this is a safety issue because i cannot get in or out of my car. this is very unsafe and the manufacturer is quoting me over 200$ to fix this commonly known issue!!

The transmission on this vehicle has always functioned erratically. there has been a recall on the transmission control module. on june 12th, as i was driving the vehicle in traffic, i heard an odd clanking noise and felt a loss of power. i was driving up a hill with traffic behind me. the car stalled for several seconds, and i was unable to make it move. it then reengaged and lurched forward. it drove normally for several seconds and then did the same thing two more times, all while climbing this hill with traffic behind me. i was able to make it to a friend's house close by, but when i went to leave, it turned out that the transmission was non-functional. i was unable to put the car in reverse, or move it in any direction. it had to be towed to a hyundai dealer and a new transmission installed. the vehicle had 81k on it when this happened.

The transmission will fail to deliver power to the wheels when starting from a stop. you will hit the gas and nothing will happen for a beat, before kicking in suddenly. this creates a safety issue, especially when turning left, as it can leave you stranded in front of traffic. multiple tucson owners have reported the same issue with their transmisison.

The lock actuator on the driver's side door failed. the door cannot be opened, even when the car is unlocked. this creates a hazard if one is required to exit the vehicle in an emergency. there have been numerous owners reporting the same issue on different door in the 2016 tucson.

Both front doors no longer open from outside. started off as intermittent and has gotten progressively worse sometimes i cant get them to open from inside either. this is a huge safety problem.

The vehicle is slow to accelerate on and doesn’t change gears quickly, often stays in a neutral mode which doesn’t allow acceleration. vehicle doesn’t move when gas is pressed which can cause a major issue when driving on the roads. it is very dangerous and i believe my vehicle should be included in the august 29, 2016 recall.

Once my car door is unlocked from the outside it will not open! my son also owns a 2016 hyundai tucson and the same thing is happening. i have been hearing of this happening for many, many more hyundai owners. it is a safety issue as one is unable to get into the car or get out of the car. this could pose a risk in the event that my granddaughter is stuck in the car under dangerous circumstances or that i am or if someone with a physical limitation is in the car...needing to quickly exit the car or even to quickly gain entrance to the car. i have read other owners' posts about the blasé, even bored, responses from hyundai and that just diagnosing the issue costs around $100. also, even if the car is still in warranty and the item is replaced, one still has to pay for labor! it will also cost around $4000 to get all 4 doors repaired. ridiculous!! while this is a major inconvenience, it also puts the driver and passengers in dangerous risk of injury just to get out of the car! hyundai has an obligation to make their vehicles safe. this should be a safety recall and 100% covered by hyundai. thank you

Back rear doors do not unlock. no matter how many times you press the unlock button they just do not unlock. nothing has been done to the doors or just started out of no where. this is a huge safety problem. if there is a crash or emergency there's no way for the back doors to open. it started with one door and now the second is doing the same thing. you have to either push the door in trying to get in or pull the door towards you if your trying to get out. i looked into this and there are several other complaints about the same thing.

Both of my rear doors will not open. it started with the rear passenger side door and as of two days ago now my rear driver side door will not open either. i am also having some problems with my driver door, sometimes it won’t open until the second try. i searched online and this seems to be a common problem. this is a safety concern, i am not sure how there isn’t a recall for this.

The vehicle issue began with needing an engine check light. searched for a recall but there wasn't any engine recalls online for my vin number. took the car to the dealer for a recall and they did the recall on some electrical wire that was separate from the engine issue but they just overlooked the engine check light on my dashboard and made no mention of it. they actually bypassed it and so i thought maybe they fixed the issue since the light isn't present anymore. however the engine light came and the problem developed into a transmission failure. upon pressing the gas pedal, the vehicle wouldn't run over 30 miles per hour and could only go up to 4 rpms.. i took the car to the mechanic and he replaced the transmission and he said that the root cause was a result of a burnt gasket. so we had that replace also.. after spending $5000 in repairs, the motor or the engine completely overheated and now the car is just a potato. another issue is the doors on my car and not opening anymore. i have to manually ply them open by pulling on some mechanical wiring inside the door. why do i have to pay for bad engineering? this is an obvious risk.

This vehicle is under recall for its antilock braking system. i brought the vehicle to a dealership on 10 april for the repair. they didn't have the necessary parts in stock. when i called back two months later. still no parts. it's now been more than 5 months. which i believe to be proof that the dealership is "unable to remedy the defect within a reasonable time." instead of responding to calls, jim ellis hyundai of atlanta (5785 peachtree blvd, atlanta, ga 30341) puts me on hold indefinitely. i'd really like to be able to use my garage again.

The doors on the passenger side of the car will not open from the outside or inside. my car was not hit. i have been in no accidents, but the just do not open anymore. my driver side door takes two attempts before it opens. the only door that works like it should is the back-seat driver side door. no warnings. this happened months ago, but i was out of warranty. the dealership service department told me $350 per door to repair. found that hundreds of owner of this make/model experience the same. totally unsafe that only 1 of 4 doors function properly.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while the vehicle was parked, the contact attempted to open the rear driver’s side door from the inside and the door failed to open. the contact exited the vehicle from the rear passenger’s side door. the next day the contact attempted to open the door and the rear driver’s and passenger’s side door would not open. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 103,000.

I took my 2016 tucson to the myrtle beach sc dealership for the recall on the abs. first thing that happened they called me in the back and told me that they added oil (which i checked when i got home and was overfilled) and that they put in 2 new air filters. they did all this before asking me. so they tried to get me to pay $72 each for the air filters and $16 for the oil and of course i refused. within days the check bsd system light and all other lights have come on. when i’m at a stop signs it shuts off. i have started the vehicle one morning to warm the engine up and i go back and thence hole is off with the dashboard lights on. my vehicle has even stop and cut off while in traffic while taking my daughter to school. the rpm and the ac stops working when these lights come on and i can only drive the vehicle at a certain speed. i don’t know if by “fixing” the abs caused this issue or what but my vehicle was driving fine before i went to that dealership. i contacted the dealership asked for a manager and of course one was not available but i was told that they would look at my vehicle for $110. and i still haven’t heard from a manager. so disappointed in hyundai!!!

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the passenger’s side rear door failed to open without warning. the local dealer was not contacted. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 68,880. the vin was invalid.

Rear passenger door will not open from inside or outside despite being unlocked. previously it could be opened after pulling handle several times, now it will not open at all despite being unlocked. i have small children in the back seat in car seats and would not be able to get them out through that door in an emergency. the front driver's door also requires pulling the handle several times in order to open it.

The rear driver's side door of my door suddenly stopped working. when i was trying to get my baby out of the car, neither my husband nor myself could get to her. we couldn't open her door with the exterior door handle (even after multiple attempts to unlock the car) or the interior door handle. if we find ourselves in an emergency situation, we would not be able to safely and efficiently evacuate our child and other passengers. while it has not been inspected, it is available for inspection upon request. there were and still are no warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. additionally, this seems like a common issue for the hyundai tucson as there are many people online talking about this very same issue, with some people unable to open either of their doors.

I'm mid may-end of may i took it in to fort mill hyundai the first time because it was starting to crank hard, sounded funny and my dashboard lights would come on saying i needed oil and there was an engine issue. when i idled too long the car would just die, i'd have to shift into park actually turn the car off and let it sit 1-3 mins turn it back on and all the lights would be off and it would drive like it did before it died, loud. they did testing on it and said these repairs (crankshaft sensor, spark plugs and i think an oil change) should fix it. this was less than a month after my previous oil change. got the car back 3-4 days later and it sounded better but i still felt like it didn't drive and smooth as it should. 2-3 weeks goes by and my oil light again comes on only with sharp turns. the car over the next couple of days would do the loud cranking noise, didn't drive well over 60 and the engine light came on and gauges would go down but would be fine again once the car was turned off for a couple min like 5 . i set up an appt to hve them look it over again because of the lights coming back on. not even 2 days later twice going to and from work it completely died out on me (like the first time) but this time it would turn over once it was out in park and turned off correctly. first time i was in the middle of traffic at a red light waited 10 mins multiple times trying to turn the car on to move to the side and it wouldn't. i let it sit for 5 mins without trying to turn it on and it started the gauges didn't work and it was very loud stuck in like first gear wouldn't go above 20 mph. pulled into a neighborhood turned it off to let it cool off again thinking it was over heating. it would crank but again lights still all on and the gear gauge didn't work (down at 0 liek the car was off). i waiting like 20 mins it still had the lights on but the gauges worked, when i tried to drive home it wouldn't go about 45mph or out of 2nd gear.

My hyundai tuscon is currently at 104,552 miles with a dead engine. i also have had to bring my car in for oil changes at 2000 miles instead of 3000, because it started eating through oil fast. the morning of my last oil change, 8/17, my engine started making loud clunking noise. after the oil change, on the way home to call my dealer, key hyundai of milford, my engine shut off while in drive on a busy street and started smoking. luckily, i was able to move to the small shoulder and put my hazards on and force the car into park to wait for a tow. if i was not at a safe place to force my car into park the day it died, i could have been seriously injured. no engine lights or any warning lights went on on the dash at all. i had it towed to my auto shop and they said it was leaking oil all over the place, not anywhere an oil changer could access, and could not get it started. they suggested it was a faulty engine and to call hyundai corporate, start a case and get it fixed because at just over 100,000 miles it was still considered a young car. i bought this car at 82,000 miles used and was given no warranty on the engine. hyundai corporate would only open a case if i had it towed to a hyundai dealer, and had to fight to get them to tow it themselves to meriden hyundai, where it currently sits. this engine failure and the problems leading up to it match exactly that of the large class action suit that is currently going on with hyundai/nissan/kia motors, yet my vin doesn't match any recalls. back in march, i had a check engine light that lead to me paying out of pocket for a misfiring cylinder and having to replace the ignition coil and all my spark plugs. i have only had this car since october 2019, and have kept it well maintained. i have been going back and forth with hyundai customer care, and they are sending me in circles and refusing to fix the problem or even attempt to help me solve it.

Engine burns excessive oil, we change our oil every 3k miles since owning it sept 2019. i had taken it to the dealer for a repair on a separate issue and asked them to look at the engine and transmission due to noise and intermittent issues taking off. was told there was no issue and i did not need an oil change until i reach 5 k miles ( i was at 3k) and that the transmission has had the update and this is how the car operates noise and all, a week and a half later engine stalled while turning through a light at an intersection and the oil light came onfor a split second then off, no oil lights ever indicated low oil until that moment, i checked the oil and it was dry, i did an oil change, next time i reached 3k miles i took it to a shop, not the dealer and oil was dry at 3k miles, have had to refill the oil at 1500 miles since finding this out and have made multiple complaints to the dealer, they will not inspect it for what is a widely known issue unless i pay the money to do an oil consumption test that i cannot afford i have made numerous calls and have been unable to reach corporate after my first contact and delaer will not assist due to me being out of warranty even though this could have been prevented while i was in warranty and informed them i was having concerns, this company is aware of the issues these cars have and is knowing selling them when they can cause injury or death, as well none of my door handles will open the car upon first try(though this part is now under an extended warranty due to this issue) this company is knownly selling and doing everything not to recall dangerous vehicles

Reduced engine power that caused car to suddenly stall. check engine light and engine oil pressure light both came on. auto shop is stating a new engine is required. similar recall have been issued in other hyundai tucson

Since purchasing this car brand new i have had 3 different seat belt pretensioner failures all covered under warranty. both front seat belt pretensioners and driver side belt anchor pretensioner. this is on a car with approximately 52000 miles and in excellent condition. in each case the airbag light came on. i am seriously wondering if there is a serious safety issue with these components.

Our rear driver side door does not open from both inside and outside. i have seen that this is an extremely common issue with other hyundai owners. i have three small children. this is extremely dangerous if there was ever an emergency situation, to have small children trapped back seats, unable to open the doors. i have read that other doors eventually fail too, which just compounds the extreme danger that this poses if an emergency comes up and one has to evacuate the vehicle. the issue seems to always be the door latch and cable not catching, so there is a consistency in what other people are experiencing. please consider this an extreme safety issue and issue a recall.

The locks in the doors do not alway unlock and sometimes stick. when in a accident or and emergency i won’t be able to get my kids out of the back seat due to the doors not always wanting to open. the front door does not open till the third pull at times. the back doors take a good 15 hard pulls for the lock to open. it shows unlocked inside while not opening from the outside or inside. you just get lucky to it finally opening sometimes.

Engine lost power while turning through a light at an intersection and the traction control light came on for a split second then off. car the began violently shaking, shuddering and then decrease in power. once stopped, engine would not regain acceleration or power. was able to safely get off a very busy road. car was towed to mechanic, diagnosed as bad engine. spoke to local dealer who stated the 2016 engines have had many problems some vins (not mine) had additional warranty. dealer advised to call hyundai corporate and see if they could assist. called hyundai who stated my car is out of warranty and they cannot assist me as no engine recalls are open for my vin. i changed the cars oil and did all other necessary maintenance. the car burned oil excessively. also had multiple issues with door latches, all 4 window regulators required replacement, turn signal and ac sensors went bad. many problems for a car 5 years old and now undrivable. hyundai knows of the problems but refuses to assist.

Rear door does not open. can't be opened from the inside or outside. apparently, similar problems from this model from other owners. affects all doors.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the passenger’s side rear door would not open from the inside or the outside. the contact also stated that excessive force was needed to open the driver’s side front door. the dealer had been notified of the failure and the contact was provided the cost for a diagnostic test. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 60,000.

Rear passenger door when unlocked will not open. i can open the door when unlocked by banging on door just below the outside door handle.

Major electrical components associated with the vehicle malfunctioned including speedomoter, tachometer, deactivation of airbags and inability to indicate which gear the vehicle was in. situation was remedied with the replacement of a secondary vacuum pump. water entry into the pump is cause of issue to major electronic components.

1) front right driver headlight warning message, keeps illuminating. mechanic, noticed wires are burning inside compartment. safety issue burning wires may cause entire electrical system to burn out causing a fire and not having headlights. vehicle being serviced 10/29/21 2) driver brake light message illuminated, replaced light 2 mo ago, as of today 10-28-21, brake light out again. vehicle being serviced 10/29/21 3) purchased vehicle 3/21. vehicle will not accelerate, it will jerk causing a slow start, safety issue. vehicle taken to mechanic covered thru warranty, he stated vehicle drove ok, still having same problem since 3/21

I have had 2 window regulators go out within a month due to them using cheap plastic and it's reaction to hear i assume.

While i was driving on the highway my check engine light started blinking. i immediately pulled off on the next exit 1/4 mile from when the light started blinking. after stopping completely off the exit the engine stalled and both the oil light and battery light popped on. i was not able to accelerate or drive it from there. an independent mechanic who towed it to their shop said there was no oil in the engine. this is impossible because i had plenty of time left before the next oil change. a week prior to this incident we took the car to the hyundai dealership to fix a recall problem. there was no indication anything was wrong with the engine or car at the time they fixed the recall issue. somehow the oil in the engine disappeared and there was no indication from any low oil lights, engine lights, or any other notification that there was an issue. it currently has been towed to the hyundai dealership and awaiting their diagnostic and solution. a claim has been opened with hyundai corporate since there is a recall opened for 2016 hyundai tuscons.

I need to let you know my 2016 hyundai tucson is using oil so bad it's getting out of control. no matter what we do it continues to happen. it has been using more has then it use to also. its getting ridiculous. i love my car but i'm ready to go back to a different make all together if they don't do something to fix these issues. my tucson is not the only one that does it. i have a family member who has to put a new engine in here due to this. i can not afford to buy my car and then turn around and have to put a new engine in it. something needs done asap. i'm contacting a lawyer due to the many other issues not listed. like it trying to die going down the highway. this has been going on since around june 2021

Purchased the car new. a year or so into ownership the car began to bog down upon acceleration for a dead stop (stop lights, etc). i voiced my concern multiple times when i took the car to the dealership for regular services. i was told this is just the way this turbo performs. no reason to be concerned. i almost got his a few times due to this issue. again voiced my concerns was told the same thing over and over again. the next issue was when i would turn the oil light would flicker on and off. still was told probably nothing but a short somewhere. then we checked the oil and it was down a quart. took it in to the dealership they changed the oil and said to just "keep an eye on it". 3 weeks later the engine completely failed and seized. had to have the car towed, paid that out of pocket. that was in july. still no repairs done, they say they do not have a loaner car to give me and if i want a rental i would have to pay for it out of pocket and once the repairs are done and i have my car back i could contact hyundai to possibly be reimbursed. this is so ridiculous! this engine should have been a recall as far back as 2017! so all summer we had to drive our old backup vehicle which has no ac and is not a great commuter vehicle. someone should have to pay for all this inconvenience and cost. the date the engine completely failed is the date i have proved as the incident date.

Latch failure of all 4 doors, passenger side door in 2018, passenger rear door 2018 and again now (2021), driver door 2019, driver rear door 2019. the door latch fails and at first won’t open from the inside. after a few days or weeks, door will not open from outside or inside. this costs over $450 (labor not included) and is a huge safety concern! this should not happen in a 5 year old car, especially to all 4 doors, and one of the doors twice!

A warning light indicating that a brake light is out has been active for over 4 years. the bulbs have been replaced and checked and the brake light outage persists. this is an electrical issue and poses a serious safety hazard. secondly, when trying to accelerate, the engine will rev between 400-500rpms but the car won’t speed up for several seconds. lately while pressing the gas pedal the engine is revving in the 500’s while the car actually decelerates from 70mph to 40mph while on the freeway. this is a mega dangerous safety issue for myself and other drivers. a mechanic quoted us yesterday as needing a new transmission. the car is 6 years old. in my opinion, these issues coupled with the existing recalls make this car a true lemon.

Neither of the backdoors of the car will open from the inside or the outside. the first failure was the driver side backdoor which will not open even with force. several months later the passenger side rear door is experiencing the same issue. i spoke with the local hyundai dealership who confirmed that it is a well known issue, but they have been less than helpful with getting it repaired. they take my contact info and say someone will call me but they never do, when i call or go to the dealership in person the one guy who can help get the repair underway is never available, and they will not give me his direct contact info. this is a serious safety risk because there is no way to get to my children from either of the backdoors if there was an emergency, they have to be accessed and pulled over the center console to be removed from the car at all. given the incredibly persistent issues with these latches failing in the tucson, there is also no way to know when any of the other latches may fail and make it impossible to quickly escape the car.

My back door on the driver's side does not open from the inside or out. i had the same issue with my driver's door but would open from the outside. i went to the dealership and replaced the door latch assembly. i am not under warranty, so it cost me alot to get fixed. just one month later the backdoor stopped working completely. i got a letter in the mail form hyundai saying this is a known issue and if your warranty has expired they'll fix it at no cost, that doesn't help me at all. this is a safety issue and needs to be a recall. i am worried the other doors will stop working. it is not affordable to get fixed.

My third door has stopped opening from the outside. this is a known issue to hyundai about these cars and it is a safety issue.

First the passenger side rear door would not unlock or open; was repaired for a very high amount and i was told it wasn't covered; now the same thing with the driver's side rear door; online forums show this as a very common problem with hyundai tucson 2016. this is a safety issue - door cannot be used to exit the vehicle from the inside or outside at the malfunctioning (non-functioning) door.

While driving on the freeway in high traffic, my vehicle suddenly shut off. i re-started it and exited the freeway and drove to a mechanic. mechanic said vehicle was almost completely out of oil , but there was no visible oil leak. he heard a engine knock and after investigating, found the engine was consuming large amounts of oil and caused damage to the engine. there were no warning indications.

Started having issues with acceleration after getting gas. thought it may have been bad gas. took to independent mechanic who changed all spark plugs, coil packs, catalytic converter. next month during regular oil change (every 3000 miles), tech told me that i was low on oil and that it looked as if the engine was burning oil. he stated that he had seen multiple engines from tuscons burning oil and to get in touch with dealer.

I had the same problem over and over again. did not show any used oil at that time. between oil changes, the car was 2.5 quarts low again. there is no evidence of leaks and no smell or smoke from the exhaust no lights indicating the is a problem. my engine is beyond repairs and must be replaced. the car is housed in my daughter's garage because i am unable to pay for a rebuilt or new engine.

Passenger side door failing to unlock fully, not openable from the outside under many circumstances. this seems to be a common problem with the 2016 hyundai tucson. hyundai needs to issue a recall for this safety issue.

Sensor default, abs on dashboard, acceleration on dashboard, oil lights default on dashboard, electrical problems, and radio default. my vehicle is still under warranty however im trying to figure out will warranty cover for all of the problems within my vehicle.

I was at a stoplight waiting to turn right. when there was a safe break in traffic i began the right turn, but the engine made a clunking noise and stopped accelerating in the middle of the road. at this point, cars were getting close to me and my car wasn't speeding up, so i turned on my hazard lights and managed to inch onto the shoulder. i had my 5 month old baby in the car with me, so his safety, my safety, and the safety of others on the road were at risk. we took the car to our local hyundai dealership and they said they couldn't diagnose the issue unless they took the engine apart. they checked all of the fluid levels and electrical connections, the battery, all of that was normal but we didn't have the $500+ they wanted to take the engine apart, so that did not get checked. this car had less than 100,000 miles on it and was in great shape. we had it for less than a year and did not even drive it every day. there were no warning lights or messages or anything to let me know that there was a problem. the engine starting making that clunking noise about five minutes before it died. i was on the highway and got off the nearest exit to check for problems but the car stopped moving before i could get someplace safe to take a look. other than that, there was no indication of any issue, and no issues spotted during any routine maintenance/oil changes.

Electrical issues and/or hardware issues with rear windows. understand the issue to be electrical motor and/or window regulator. one window fixed but other to be repaired. in driving, window starts to sag and persons outside the vehicle have attempted to gain entrance through the sagging window. for the repaired window, the dealer inspected and was to repair except the price seemed too high and was only for the window regulator. taken to a glass/auto body shop who indicated both motor and regulator needed to be replaced and charged what the dealer was going to charge for only the replacement of the regulator. the within days after one window fixed, the other window refused to close all the way and the issue of someone trying to gain entrance occurred.

At the end of november 2021, my oil change light came on, which was odd because i was not due for an oil change. brought the car in, they changed my oil and the light was gone. barely a week later, the oil light came on again. i had some guys at work check it and they said i barely had any oil. i scheduled another appointment but never made it. i was driving on the highway when my car starting shaking uncontrollably and dropped down to barely 20mph. i almost created a pileup as cars behind me were swerving out of the way. i was almost hit multiple times and could barely get my car over to the breakdown lane. my check engine light also came on as my speed dropped. i had it towed to a nearby independent garage where the mechanic told me the diagnostic codes showed that i had misfired cylinders. he suggested i bring it to a hyundai dealership to submit a claim as he knew that those type of engines were having issues. i had it towed again to the nearest hyundai dealership, where they confirmed that 2 of the cylinders had failed. hyundai confirmed with me that they had every record of me coming in to the dealership to get any required maintenance done on the car, yet the engine dies when it barely goes over 100,000 miles. and to top it off, when i asked for an estimate for repair, they quoted me $17,000 to fix it!

The passenger front door will not open from the outside once locked. it must be open from inside the car. this would be a safety concern if there was an accident and people were trying to get into the passenger side car. it seems from research that this is a known issue from hyundai

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while his daughter was driving 25 mph, she heard an abnormal noise. the contact stated multiple unknown warning lights were illuminated. the driver was able to park on the side of the road. the vehicle was not drivable. the contact towed the vehicle to another daughters' apartment. the contact spoke to the local dealer and made them aware of the failure. the dealer had the vehicle towed to their location to be diagnosed which was still pending. the vehicle was not repaired but was pending repairs. the manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. the failure mileage was 92,933.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving 55-60 mph, she heard an abnormal noise. the contact stated no warning light was illuminated. the contact stated that she was able to park on the side of the road before the vehicle was seized. the vehicle was not drivable. the contact towed the vehicle to her residence. the vehicle was then towed to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed with needing the engine to be replaced. the vehicle was repaired however, started to experience failure with the brakes. the contact took the vehicle to the local dealer and was informed that the vin was associated with nhtsa campaign number: 20v543000 (service brakes, hydraulics). the dealer completed the recall repair however, the failure with the brakes recurred. additionally, the rear driver’s side door failed to open. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer had been informed of the failure. the failure mileage was 39,055.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while driving at 65 - 70 mph, the vehicle lost motive power and there was smoke coming from the bottom of the vehicle. additionally, the vehicle made abnormal sounds. upon the vehicle being placed onto the tow truck, there was oil leaking from underneath the vehicle onto the ground. the vehicle was towed to the dealer and diagnosed with rod bearing failure in the lower part of the engine, which caused a hole in the engine block. the vehicle was not repaired and remained at the dealer. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure but informed the contact that there was no recall associated with the vin. the failure mileage was approximately 75,000.

The engine block overheated and seized causing a connecting rod to break and eject from the bottom of the vehicle. i was driving down a highway when this happened with no indication or check light of the problem on the dashboard. i heard a snapping noise which was the connecting rod breaking and then ejecting out of the engine and then the engine smoked, and the car immediately lost acceleration on a packed highway and had i not responded quickly - i would have caused a serious accident. i had the car towed to a repair shop initially and they diagnosed it as engine seizure with massive engine failure and they told me to send it to hyundai dealer in algonquin il, which was where they confirmed the diagnosis - it seemed suspicious to me as i have had all maintenance done with hyundai besides my tires. they told me the engine overheated and seized which caused the connecting rods to snap, i had visited my dealership recently the prior month for an oil change and they did not indicate any major problems with my vehicle. the car had to be towed to my local dealership mcgrath city hyundai as i have no way to drive to the other dealership as it was so far way. i'm waiting now almost half a year for an engine replacement and no word from the manufacturer or dealership on this matter.

This same oil leak issue has been addressed at least 6 times and is worse than its ever been. 1-16-20 9-12-20 1-8-21 1-22-21 5-17-21 9-10-21 the oil pan was replaced on 09-10-21 at 109,331 miles. at around 2,000 mile after this service noticed oil spots again in my driveway, it seems to be leaking in the same spot. i called for an appointment on november 1 to have it looked at and you were about a month out, so i had to make an appointment for november 29th. the problem seems to be getting worse and i dont feel comfotable driving it. i called service twice in the last week and was advised to leave it in case an appointment opens up. please see service history, check, and advise. i have a college visit with my son in maryland on november 15 and had to rent a vehicle.

The contact's son owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while his son was driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle lost motive power. the check engine warning light was illuminated. the vehicle was towed to the dealer, and the dealer replaced the spark plugs; however, the failure recurred. the vehicle was then towed to wiesner hyundai (1645 interstate 45 n, conroe, tx 77304) and diagnosed with engine failure, and the engine needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure and informed the contact to take the vehicle to a dealer. the failure mileage was 107,727.

All of the window regulators have gone out now 3 within a few months, don't know how there isn't a recall yet. seems there is a lot of complaints in forums. all within 3 months definitely sounds sus. most think it's due to the plastic wheel the regulator spins on. the heat melts it over time. i only have 49,000 miles on the car at this time. they want 2,300 to fix it.'

Failed intake valve/compression valve. it is currently at the dealer i bought it from. i was driving in traffic and it had no power at all. i was almost rear ended several times trying to coast off the road. the dealer took the engine apart and put it back together 3 times and informed me that it will need a new motor. there were no warnings at all before this happened. the dealer nor hyundia has tried to work with me on the cost. the purchase price was $14,000 and they want to charge $8000 for a new motor. i am still paying for the suv that isnt running.

The engine has rod bearing failure. the engine is a gamma gdi 1.6 l engine- the same engine that was recalled from the veloster, for this problem but the tuscon was not included in the recall. hyundai has stated they recalled the gamma gdi 1.6 l due to metal shavings being left in the engine during production that overtime created wear on the rod bearings leading to failure and engine failure. (which is exactly what is wrong with my vehicle) hyundai has said they will not fix my engine, and that it is out of warranty. it has been inspected by 2 local mechanics who have confirmed the diagnosis, i have called hyundai corporate and the local hyundai dealerships who have provided no help and requested $250 to even look at my vehicle. the oil light came on right before the engine started knocking and it was taken directly to a mechanic. i purchased this vehicle 1 year ago from a reputable used car dealership who will not help me either, the vehicle is now out of warranty, and i still owe $17,000 on the loan. a new engine is $10,000. hyundai needs to step up and fix this issue.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that soon after purchasing the vehicle, the vehicle would stall upon depression of the accelerator pedal as the rpm's would loudly rev. the contact took the vehicle back to the independent used auto shop where the vehicle was purchased and was informed that they would not service the transmission or offer any additional assistance. upon investigation, the contact discovered nhtsa campaign number: 16v628000 (power train, electrical system) which he linked to the failure. the manufacturer had been notified of the failure but provided no assistance. the contact called a local dealer and made an appointment for service. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 92,000.

1. january 7, 2022 my vehicle began to lose engine power, as i began to try and find a place to pull over safely, the car stalled. it would not immediately start again for several hours. it had to be pushed out of the way. the engine failed due to wear of connecting rod bearings with no previous indication of engine issues. 2. due to the sudden stall and having to push the vehicle to a safe location, myself and passengers could have easily been hit by another vehicle. 3. a dealership has confirmed the failed rod bearings. 4. the vehicle's engine has been inspected and photos taken by the dealership and submitted to hyundai corporate. 5. it was not until the car stalled that the oil light illuminated. when i started the car back up several hours later, all lights were gone and no error codes were present. there was no previous warning lights before this incident.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the vehicle would not start. the vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the starter had failed and needed to be replaced. the starter was replaced. the independent mechanic also informed the contact that the brake pedal needed to be replaced, and the rear trailing arm was corroded and could fracture while driving. there were no warning lights illuminated. the independent mechanic stated that the suspension front spring and coil spring could damage the tire overtime. the contact became aware that the vin was included in nhtsa campaign number: 20v543000 (service brakes, hydraulic). the dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 37,861.

3 safety concerns with the vehicle- 1) - the front passenger side door will not open from time to time when unlocked- you need to crank on the out side and inside handle at times to get the door to open. this is a concern if i were to ever get into an accident. the locking mechanism has had to be repaired on both rear doors for the same issue- potentially keeping a passenger from exiting the vehicle in the case of an emergency. 2) the car jerks when accelerating from a complete stop every single time you drive - and you have to put your foot way down (like slamming down) on the gas pedal in order to get up to the right speed… (i have never had to do this in the other 4 vehicles we own - only in the hyundai) 3) oil consumption concern. the car is using way too much oil then it should. i change the oil every 5000 miles and it is going into hyundai 2/4/2022 in west allis, wi for an oil change - (and to get the passenger door fixed) i had to add oil on 2/2/2022 because the oil level warning light came on - and it was almost empty. i’ll be requesting an oil consumption test. this should be covered by hyundai due to this being a safety concern with the engine. this has been the worst vehicle e have ever owned. i have 3 daughters that drive this vehicle and it scares me thinking that if one were to ever get into an accident that they or one of their friends would be seriously injured - for either a- not being able to get out of the vehicle or b- the engine starting on fire due to the oil consumption problem.

I purchased the car in june 2021and took the car back within the month due to the driver door having issues locking and unlocking. today on 2/5/22 as i was driving my car on the express way my engine light,battery light and oil light came on and my car began to shake. as i got off the express way my car cut off in the middle of traffic while i had 2 kids in the car in the city of houston…. in october i was told that i was having oil consumption issues and was having to take my car back every 1,000 miles. and then was told that’ll it’ll be $900 to get a decombustion cleaning. i am unsure of why my car has stopped today. i’ll be back to let y’all know.

Engine failed and had to be replaced.

We purchased a 2016 hyundai tuscon in july 2020 from key hyundai milford ct. we have become aware of serious engine problems with the vehicle such as, severe oil consumption, sudden stalling and loss of power at traffic stops, loud continuous rattling from the engine compartment. we took the vehicle to a mechanic her in pittsburgh where we now live and were told that there appears to be a serious problem with connecting rods and that we may end up having to replace the engine at our own expense. we have had this vehicle for only 3,00 miles and one and a half years, we were never notified of the engine issues. we were assured that the vehicle had been well maintained and was in perfect condition. we are writing to see if this its under the ct lemon law and/or if there specific remedies that we can pursue. we tried contacting the dealership but we received absolutely no assistance and washed their hands of any responsibility. thank you in advance for any assistance that you can provide, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

Engine failure at approximately 80,000 miles. no oil observed in engine, dipstick smelled of burnt plastic, no grit or sludge observed on dipstick or exterior of engine, no smell of burnt oil or blue smoke from tailpipe. audible engine slap, no check engine lights were illuminated in dash, oil light flickers on for less than 3 seconds after engine turned over. mechanic identified engine failure and also noted there was no oil in the engine, recommended we call hyundai corporate office. engine near seizure, as a result, if engine seizes, this could potentially bring the vehicle to an abrupt stop at highway speeds and can result in a catastrophic accident or engine fire. engine still under warranty, dealership attempting to say engine failure caused by "sludge issue", but no proof of engine sludge found upon inspection. oil change records provided to dealership upon request. hyundai corporate was called, given the run-around.

The traction control system keeps randomly kicking on while driving.

I've had this used hyundai for 6 months, had to replace drivers door panel ( windows not going up and down) stopped working. now drivers back door window will not go up or down. right side back door will not open anymore. on utube people by the 18k are complaining about these same issues. what next? it's like the body is falling apart.

#1 - the door handles on all doors have started taking several pulls on the handle to open. the left passenger side is no longer able to be opened from the inside of the car. this moved to all doors and it takes numerous tries on the other 3 doors from the inside or outside to be able to get the doors opened. #2 - we bought this car used from the original owner with 99k miles on it. we know the owner personally and they did regular maintenance on the engine. after 6 months of owning and putting on 3000 miles on the vehicle the engine has blown. when we bought the car we changed all the fluids and did an initial oil flush and put in synthetic oil and did another oil change before the 3000 mile mark, again with synthetic oil. the check engine light came on while driving and oil light started flickering and the engine also started knocking. we had the vehicle towed to a mechanic and they said to contact hyundai as they've had several blown engines that came through their shop and that hyundai was doing a massive recall. towed the car to hyundai and they took 3 weeks to look at the car and said that due to poor maintenance the engine blew and they could replace the engine for $13k and this engine wasn't covered in the extended warranty. they took a video of the oil chamber and it had sledge and said no coverage due to poor maintenance and our vin also wasn't on the recall list. after doing research it looks like several others are having issues with oil problems, sludge and blown engines.

Car was driving fine. i started going up a moderate hill and car stalled out with no warning, right in the middle of a busy highway. was able to get finally get it started to pull onto side of road, it had a loud knocking sound and engine light and oil light came on that time. i had it towed to my mechanic who said it had absolutely no oil. i have not found any evidence of oil leaking in my driveway or parking lot at work. it never gave any warning that engine needed serviced or oil was low. it now needs a total engine replacement. i am the second owner so of course i have no warranty. car has 81,000 miles on it, had 75,000 when i bought it 4 months ago. never dreamed i would be dealing with replacing an engine after 4 months. since this has happened, i have read so many complaints of these cars doing the exact same thing to so many owners, i have lost count. a recall needs to be done, hyundai needs to own up and address whatever flaw is causing this problem over and over again. had i been on the interstate ( where i was heading) or driving in city traffic, i could have been killed. this problem is not just frustrating, it is also dangerous.

The drivers side door almost never opens on the first try, i usually have to pull the handle twice. recently the passenger side back door will not open from the inside or outside, despite being unlocked. this is a huge safety concern if i were in an accident and could not open this door. i have seen dozens of other reports of people having this same issue and a recall should be issued immediately to fix this potential life threatening and dangerous issue.

Car started eating oil after 110k miles. seems as if 2 quarts low in 3,000 miles between oil changes. started carrying extra oil and checking level during and after long trips. at 140,000 miles the turbo charger failed and engine failed in the middle of pulling out of a parking lot. no lights on instrument panel ever lit up until 40 miles before the engine failed. oil light never came on as engine oil was burned up in the turbo. car is now dead and needs a new engine. internet posts show numerous hyundai owners with the 1.9 liter turbo engine experiencing the same problem.

Rear driver side door does not open. it is not locked, child locks are not on. after reading multiple online forums it appears hyundai is aware of the issue and not creating a recall for this issue. the lock actuator needs to be replaced, hyundai is charging outrageous fees to have this resolved. this is a huge safety issue. if the vehicle is in an accident any person sitting in the back seat of the vehicle would not be able to get out of the vehicle on the rear driver side of the vehicle. why hasn't a recall been issued???

On friday, september 11, 2022, i had just returned from running errands. i parked the car, which had no warning lights on whatsoever, and exited the vehicle. a few seconds later, smoke started streaming out from under the hood. i popped the hood but did not open it, and started toward the house to get some water, thinking that something was overheated. before i had taken ten steps, flames were shooting out from the hood. i called 911, but before the fire department arrived, part of my house also caught fire. it has been inspected by the fire marshal and my insurance company.

The engine has been consuming too much oil for a few months now. most recently, an oil change was done on 2/17/2022 after driving 879 miles by an independent mechanic, and there was only 2.5 quarts of oil left. this occurred after the hyundai dealer said that it passed an oil consumption test. also on two occasions, the dashboard lights and headlights went out while driving, then came back on moments after. this has not been replicated. the vehicle is available for inspection upon request.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact’s son stated that while stopped, there was a knocking sound coming from the engine. the contact stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated. the local dealer was contacted via the telephone and informed of the failure; the dealer suggested that the vehicle be brought to the dealer for assistance. the manufacturer was not informed of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 100,000.

The drivers side door almost never opens, i have to open the passenger side door to gain entry into the vehicle. in addition, the drivers side window at times will not open. i am not sure if this is an electrical problem. on occasion, this also happens on the passenger side. i do not want to be trapped in my car or have my passengers trapped. previously the drivers side back door would not open and the dealership replaced the latch. at times i still have issues with the door opening from the inside and out, despite being unlocked. rear driver side door does not open. it is not locked, child locks are not on. after reading multiple online forums it appears hyundai is aware of the issue and not creating a recall for this issue. the lock actuator needs to be replaced, hyundai is charging outrageous fees to have this resolved. this is a huge safety issue. if the vehicle is in an accident any person sitting in the front drivers side, front passenger side and back seatsof the vehicle would not be able to get out of the vehicle on the rear driver side of the vehicle. this is a huge safety concern if i were in an accident and could not open this door. i have seen dozens of other reports of people having this same issue and a recall should be issued immediately to fix this potential life threatening and dangerous issue.

Since i purchased the car, there have been intermitten times when the car hesitates and does not accelerate after being stuck in traffic. it is bogged down and does eventually move. when this originally happened the vechilce was brought in to the dealer and they advised there was a recall for transmission programming and that was done. prior to 100,000 miles on the car, the transmission needed to be replaced and i was told this would solve the problem. but it did not - the bogging and hesitation happened less frequently, but continued. in 2021, i had to replace the turbo because the vechile was bogging down and the codes indicated it was the turbo. after the turbo was replaced, my car began burning significant amounts of oil. sometimes, i could go 2,000 miles, others only 1,000 and most recently 250-500 miles before my car would start bogging again and need 2 quarts of oil. after filling my car in early february with oil and driving less than 100 miles, my car started bogging and sputtering while driving and making awful noise. the codes indicated it needed coils, which i had replaced but the engine has no compression. after reading and researching this is a known problem with the 2016 tucson 1.6t and a defect that was corrected in the engine in 2018. hyundai should be responsible for this and be required to make owners whole.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while at a complete stop, the vehicle would hesitate upon depression of the accelerator pedal as the wrench warning light would illuminate on the instrument panel. the contact took the vehicle to an independent mechanic where they changed the rear driver’s side tire and cleared the code; however, the hesitation persisted after the repair. the vehicle was taken back to the independent mechanic where they replaced the engine booster as well as eight bolts that had been fractured on the intake manifold while the booster was being replaced. despite the second repair, the failure persisted and the vehicle was taken back to the dealer. the contact was informed that the vehicle was included in nhtsa campaign number: 20v543000 (service brakes, hydraulic) and would be towed to a dealer for further assistance. the dealer nor the manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. the vehicle had yet to be repaired and remained in the possession of the independent mechanic. the failure mileage was 75,858.

I have had problems with two trailer hitch sending units causing brake lights to be constantly illuminated. hyundai has issues a recall for my model year on this issue, but for some reason my vin is not covered in the recall.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the front driver’s, front passenger’s, and rear driver’s side windows would independently lower without warning. the contact stated that each window regulators had gradually failed over time. the contact then stated that while driving at approximately 65 mph, the passenger’s side front window shattered into tiny pieces and fell inside the vehicle. the contact was able to drive the vehicle home and had an independent mechanic come to her home to replace the front passenger’s side window. in addition, the contact stated that the rear passenger’s side door would fail to open from both inside and outside the vehicle. the contact had yet to notify either the dealer or the manufacturer of the failure. the vehicle had yet to be repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 68,000.

My car has an unresponsive accelerator pedal, delayed or no acceleration, jerking, shuddering, shaking, and stalling. the defects cause dangerous and unsafe conditions, including failing to shift, stalling and delayed or unresponsive acceleration, especially from a stop. i have been stuck on major highways and have had to disconnect battery and wait just to get the car to restart and actually move. i have had to be towed just to get out of the way of traffic

Traveling with my family my vehicle just completely gave out at high speeds on the highway. i managed to safely navigate to the shoulder and wait in the freezing cold for a tow. initially i was told the issue was due to lack of maintenance but upon further investigation it was uncovered that this was an unaddressed recall issue. the engine threw a rod bearing and caused damage to the rod, engine, battery, and spark plugs causing all to be replaced. there were no indications of what was about to happen prior to it happening. thank god there weren’t more people on the road or that we weren’t in a different area.

While exiting from interstate the car lights all went out and the car stopped and nothing would work. after a little time the car started and warning lights were on dash. i drove home and then the light would not shut off and i had to manually go turn them off. the new morning the car started and no warning lights were on. now the radio turns off on it on and the cruse control is not setting. also the drivers side window stops in when going up.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while the vehicle was parked, she attempted to open the front passenger's side door using the driver's side power door lock switch however, the door failed to unlock. the contact engaged the front passenger's side door lock switch but the door failed to unlock. the contact also stated that the door would not unlock from the outside. there were no warning lights illuminated. the contact continued to manipulate the door switches until the front passenger's side door unlocked. the dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 80,000.

Rear passenger door will not open from inside or outside when clearly unlocked. safety concern if must exit vehicle quickly in case of emergency.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed and attempting to merge into traffic, the vehicle failed to accelerate as needed. the contact stated that the vehicle failed to accelerate above 40 mph while depressing the accelerator pedal. the contact stated that the vehicle was taken to the dealer however, the mechanic was unable to determine the cause of the failure. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was opened. the approximate failure mileage was 85,000.

Multiple door latches failing all within the past 6 months, unable to open from inside or outside. rear doors both failed within weeks of each other. front driver's side door is now beginning to stick, which is how the other failing doors began to initially fail. if you google this issue, you will see it is a common problem for 2016 hyundai tucson model. this is a critical issue as all door latch assemblies are failing at the same time on my vehicle, which will make it nearly inoperable, as well as a safety issue if i or my 3 children are unable to enter or exit the vehicle. i took the vehicle to a local ase certified repair shop and they stated that the cables inside the latch assembly become stretched or compromised. they were able to perform a temporary fix, but they said in order to completely fix the issue, the entire latch assembly needs replaced. the temporary fix did not even last for 3 days and cost me $300. cost for the assembly part alone for one door is approximately $200. if you add that to labor, i will be spending nearly $1,600 to replace all 4 door latch assemblies. this should not be the consumer's responsibility as it is an ongoing issue for this make and model year. i have submitted a complaint for recall directly to hyundai us, but this is a critical issue, and something needs to be done immediately!

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the oil level warning light was flickering. the contact stopped and checked the oil level and continued to drive. while driving, there was an abnormal sound coming from the vehicle before the engine seized. the vehicle was towed to the local dealer where it was diagnosed that the engine needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not contacted. the approximate failure mileage was 92,976.

The rear doors on both driver and passenger side will not open. they will not open from the outside or inside. this is a safety concern since i have children in car seats. i am not able to secure my children in their seats. my children are not able to exit my vehicle safely. if i were to be in a collision, first responders would not have access to my children. this is not the first hyundai tucson to have this problem as from further research, hundreds or owners have complained of this exact problem. someone should be held responsible and accountable.

Passenger door has to be forced open when unlocked. once opened the door works fine. door works fine from inside. this is a safety issue because if n an accident happens and can't get in the driver's side, rescue workers couldn't get into the passenger side. i've read many customer complaints for the same issue with all doors. this should be a recall.

Passenger rear door will not open from inside or outside. no damage or accident has occurred. door just quit opening.

While climbing the hill on highway 5 south, the engine rpm dropped so i was moving the car to the shoulder, and while moving, black smoke came out of the engine hood and stopped the car on the shoulder, and then, the fire began to rise under the engine hood. an insurance company investigation determined all losses. geico claim #0547433700101042

The engine caught fire while driving. the entire vehicle was engulfed in flames as a result. total loss of vehicle.

Passenger rear door will no longer open on first try after locking and unlocking vehicle

There appears to be a dangerously common malfunction on my 2016 hyundai tucson. without any warning or indication of failure i am unable to open either of my rear passenger doors. neither from inside, nor outside. the door locks appear to lock and unlock, manually and/or electrically, but the none of the door handles work. first the rear right side, followed by the rear left side a day later. it would be impossible in an emergency for someone to exit or be removed from the vehicle. god forbid there was a fire, or child stuck in a car seat. vehicle is available for inspection. though have not been able to have a dealer inspect it yet...hyundai is not returning my calls. how can this not be a recall yet!! do innocent people have to die first? there's no reason to have "tombstone legislation". be proactive.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated the passenger’s side failed to open from the inside or the outside. the vehicle was not taken to a dealer or an independent mechanic to be diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 69,995.

Door latch failure. the door latches do not work, and become un-openable. 11/2020 & 04/2022. yes it is currently available for inspection with a non-operational door. safety issue, cannot exit the car. cannot get kids out of the car. i cannot get out of the car. no one can open the car door that is affected when unlocked from the inside or the outside of the car. yes, there are articles, fixes and my personal mechanic and hyundai mechanics have addressed the previous same issue in 11/2020. the car was inspected by a hyundai dealer 10/2020 who gave me a quote to replace the door latches and locks. the car was inspected by my mechanic at a chevrolet dealership as well, who installed part #hyundai actuator motor front door lock 81310d3010. the car has not been inspected by police or insurance. the car has had same failure in drivers door that was fixed by a different car manufacturer. the car currently has a different door latch failure. there are no warning lamp indicators. the door simply will not open at all when unlocked causing a problem for anyone to exit the vehicle in an emergency.

My passenger door and back drivers side door won’t open when unlocked. you have to open the door from the inside

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that both front and rear passenger’s side doors failed to open from inside or outside the vehicle. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where the vehicle was diagnosed with an actuator failure. neither the manufacturer nor the dealer had been notified of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 45,000.

I was driving on interstate and my vehicle felt like it was losing power. it felt like the engine was failing. my car started squeaking and flutter when i tried to accelerate pass 65 mph. i took it to delearship and they told me my engine needed replaced. it only had like 89k miles on it. they replaced engine. i picked up suv, and as i am driving home on interstate my car started to shake and squeal again when i accelerated to 65 mph. it seemed i had to floor the accelerator to get to 65 mph. i took suv back and this time they told me it was the transmission. it is currently in shop getting transmission fixed. hyundai has had my car now for 4.5 months replacing motor and now transmission. i bought this car brand new, and had issues with this suv in the past. it would consume a lot oil way before it time for oil change, but dealership did oil consumption test and said it was fine. it lost complete power at traffic stop. every time i took it to delearshop they would say everything look good. my model vin number isn’t on the recall list, but i wouldn’t purchase a used 2016 hyundai, tucson do to safety concerns.

Transmission slips when trying to accelerate any. no leaks etc. almost had a wreck trying to merge onto the interstate with my family in the car.

No or reduced acceleration after stopping, no shifting at all into gear, vehicle hesitating, especially in low gears at speeds less then 10 mph while idling in traffic. issues shifting into gear and accelerating when pushing accelerator especially when going downhill. issue happens nearly every time the vehicle is driven. rear driver's side door will not open from inside or outside of car. seems to be an issue with the cable/pulley system. could definitely be a safety hazard in an emergency situation.

The front driver side door does not open when unlocked. it seems to me a known issue that the lock actuator tends to fail on these doors. this is a huge safety concern.

Hyundai dealership just gave me my vehicle back after having it for 3 months replacing the engine due to engine failure which a class action law suite was filed about. while having my vehicle they also replaced all the ignition coils and spark plugs, 1 day after receiving my vehicle back my car throws the following codes and has to go back to the dealership. p0353- ignition coils c primary control circuit/open p0354- ignition coils d primary control circuit/open p0420- catalyst system efficiency bele9 threshold bank 1

All of the window motors in my doors have broken all at once. the windows will not go down because the motors are broken. there are no warning lights for this. it is is a dangerous risk because if there was an emergency where the windows would need to come down they wouldn’t. i do not see how this isn’t a recall when all four window motors have broken at once.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the front and rear driver’s side and front passenger’s side windows fell down inside the door panel. there were no warning lights illuminated. the local dealer diagnosed the vehicle and determined that the window regulators needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 84,683.

The passenger doors, front and back, have stopped opening. the handles from inside and from outside will not open the doors. this is a tremendous safety issue as in the event of a fire, accident, etc people would not be able to exit the vehicle. there is no warning when the doors will not open...it just happens. it has caused a big panic and fear for use of vehicle in the event that soon no doors may operate. this problem is a n issue across the board with hyundai. hyundai should be recalling and fixing this before someone is killed because they cannot open a door.

When i unlock all doors from the driver side inside you cannot enter the vehicle on the passenger side front door from the outside handle, you have to manually reach over and pull from the inside

Passenger door wont open when unlocked using the key fob. if opened from the inside and left unlock the door will open.

3 out of the 4 windows do not go down or up with window button. the windows now move down on their own when driving that can cause a distraction if in bad weather like with heavy rain, wind, or sand storm. if i hit a bump in the road the window come down some much distracting my driving ability. i'm having to stop the card and pull up the windows with my hands now which anyone could go to my car now and just slide the windows down with their hand and break in to the suv. this happen just during my warranty but was unable to take it in due to covid restrictions at the time for myself before the time expired on the warranty. this seems like a know issue for the make and model from many in the hyundai tucson community.

2016 tucson rear doors wouldn’t open

The driver door makes clicking sound but does not unlock with the rest of the car doors using my automated lock/unlock feature on my key. in searching online, this is a huge/broad issue among hyundai tucson 2016/17 owners.

Rear right door stopped opening from inside and outside just over a month ago. two weeks ago front passenger door started to not be able to be opened. to not be able to safely exit a vehicle is a tremendous safety concern....in an accident , in another emergency situation, if vehicle caught fire, etc. which door will not be operable next? how can my elderly, disabled family member safely ride in this vehicle and get safely out? will i need to drive to a fire department to get doors cut open? (this actually is my go-to safety plan at this point) we took to our auto repair, they also could not open these doors. there are no dash warnings of doors being compromised. the vehicle was not in any accident incident. internet searching reveals this to be a widespread problem with the hyundai vehicles

Driver side window will not go down. it’s stuck.

Both back doors will not open from inside or outside. very dangerous safety concern

Driver side door no longer opens from the outside after it has been locked. rear driver side door no longer opens from the inside or outside handle. seen numerous reports and accounts online report this same issue. i have a 6 month old child and cannot have the doors on my car not opening.

My 2016 hyundai tucson has repeatedly had a major safety issue when one of the doors will suddenly completely stop working. one day a door will work fine, and after no accidents, impact, or any other known factor, the door is completely unable to be opened. the handle operates as intended, but the door itself does open. in the 4 years i have owned my car, i have had to repair 6 instances of this problem (2 of the doors having this issue again after initial repair). this issue includes my driver side door, where i have had to crawl through the car to get out. apparently this is a known issue impacting a large amount of hyundai tucsons. this is obviously a major safety issue. if these doors cease operation for seemingly no reason due to some poorly designed / manufactured component, i can’t imagine they could withstand any sort of vehicle collision / accident. i hesitate to imagine a situation where someone is in some sort of collision and need to escape a burning vehicle / pull a child out of a vehicle and their doors do not work.

Transmission can lurch forward or hesitate, shudder when accelerating from a stop. more problematic is the extreme vibration/shuddering of the car when in stop and go traffic. it is so severe passengers are actually thrusting back and forth in their seats. first occurrence was at 23,000 miles when a warning light came on saying, "transmission running high, pull over while driving in traffic." at the time i was driving in moderately heavy city traffic for about 20 minutes. hyundai service reported they could not duplicate the problem, and no codes found in any system, so no repairs performed. was informed service mechanic that this can happen in extended traffic. however, i had not been in extended traffic. i continued to experience other issues as noted above and when complained about them was told there was nothing wrong with the car, it just had some quirks with the transmission, nothing that needed repair. recently my driving has changed from city to interstate driving and starting about 5,000 miles ago, the severe shuddering/vibrating happens when traffic is tied up on interstates. the car has not been overheated by hot weather or extended driving as suggested by the service center. when i took it back in for servicing i was informed there was a "dry and wet" type of transmission in the 2016 tucson's, and i had the dry one which is problematic. again, the mechanics were unable to duplicate the problem, and said there was nothing they could do to fix the car as it was inherent in this transmission. they suggested i contact hyundai and ask for the transmission to be replaced as it was still under warranty. current mileage is 39,000. i have contacted hyundai but they insist, i must take it back to the dealer so they can "duplicate the problem and repair it. it has been and continues to be very frustrating trying to deal with hyundai. i do not feel safe driving long distances in the car and consider it to be a safety concern. please advise. thank you, ellen

The passenger side door will not unlock from the outside. you can hear when you press the unlock button but nothing happens you have to physically open the door from the inside to let the person in to the core. also we have had to replace the driver side and passenger side front window gears or whole panel in the door do you to the gears rotting out because they are cheap plastic pieces. we are now having to replace the third window which is the rear driver side for the same issue. when you open the door the gears look likethey have eaten each other. it is due to cheek horrible product being used in the door. i see multiple complaints about these two issues and they both should be recall issues. it is also a safety hazard because the windows can fall at any moment and shatter and if the rest of the door handle goes out there is no way to let anyone out of the car from the outside

Both rear doors will not open from outside or from inside the vehicle. children passengers had to clime to front to exit car. extremely dangerous.

Rear driver side door handle does not open, seems to be a safety issue with this car

Shortly after purchasing this vehicle i noticed i was using more oil than i had in other vehicles in the past. i thought it may have been normal for this different type of vehicle. the longer i owned this vehicle the more oil it consumed. i became worried and asked my brother who is a mechanic and he said sometimes turbos go through extra oil. it then got to the point i was going through close to a quart a week. i then was driving down the highway and my engine stalled and quit. come to find out i had somehow been getting gas into my oil and it ruined my engine.

Rear door will not open from the inside or the outside

The driver's side front door and rear door lock actuators failed in both the doors and you are unable to open the doors from the exterior of the vehicle after the doors have been locked. the only way to open them is to go around and open them from the inside of the vehicle. this is a major safety concern due to not being able to quickly access the vehicle from the outside to get someone out of the car if it was to be involved in a wreck/on fire. as a first responder this is a situation that i have encounter in my work experience and could be the difference in someone living or dying in a collision. this issues is well documented online and with the dealership when i called to discuss it with them. this part does not have any warnings before it fails and one day it just stops working. our vehicle is a 2016 and has around 50,000 miles so it is not old by any means. i have not had any of the parts examined by anyone such as the insurance company but i am a police officer that is trained in advance crash investigation and crash reconstruction.

Engine has no oil less three months since last oil change, vehicle did not have any type of low oil notification, car just stopped engine locked up.

I was on my way to work as normal. there were no warning lamps or other notifications/signs of a problem when all of a sudden, my vehicle started decelerating. i looked in the rearview mirror and saw smoke. i immediately pulled over and the smoke increased. within a matter or seconds flames started to shoot out from under the hood. i don't know if the fire started from something electrical or engine-related but it spread fast! before the police and fire truck arrived at the scene, my car was engulfed in flames! this was a terrifying and horrific experience! prior to this, i had to replace all of the motors on the windows and noticed the jerky movements when driving in turbo mode that i was told was normal. i didn't even have the car for 2 years! when i contacted hyundai about the windows, they did nothing and the rep referred me to get rid of it! i should have listened.

Window regulator on the front passenger side window is no longer working after just over 50,000 miles. window regulator on the front driver’s side does not always work. i was quoted that it would be a $700 repair by the dealer. front passenger side window is being held up by card board stuffed inside the door (the dealer’s advice). door lock actuator on the front passenger side door does not allow you to open the door from the outside when unlocked. both issues are serious safety concerns if the car were to be in an accident. both issues are very common with this make and model.

When i go to accelerate my vehicle it does not accelerate properly. it actually slows down to the point of almost stopping. it is very dangerous when i am getting on the highway. i have had cars almost rear end me due to this issue. i travel with my children in this car.

Rear passenger side door will not unlock/open. cannot be unlocked by any switch. from info i have been able to find this could be a very dangerous situation. i have not been to the dealer or contacted the manufactuer. no warning lights or alarms have been activated by the vehicle.o6/

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the rear passenger’s side door failed to open from inside or outside of the vehicle. the contact had spoken to the dealer and was informed that the vehicle was not under recall. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 63,000. the vin was not available.

Rear driver side door will not unlock either by electronic or manual manuvers - locked in senario. passenger door wont unlock electrinically but manually can open with handle.

The dual clutch transmission is malfunctioning. the car is lurching when accelerating, failing to accelerate and/ or delayed acceleration, and shaking/ shuddering terribly. the car is available for inspection upon request. my safety as well as others is at risk because there have been multiple incidents where the car's accelerator wouldn't engage when going 70+ mph on the interstate almost causing an accident. the car also lurches and shakes terribly. yes the problem has been confirmed. the problem has been inspected on similar cars having the same problems but not mine specifically. there were no other warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. the problems first appears may 14, 2022.

Put car in drive and it does not engage and will not move. it acts like it is still in park. however, the reverse gear does operate.

Air conditioning unit is not working properly. i am spending over 1500.00 to have the defective unit replaced. i find it unreasonable that i should spend that amount to repair something that the company should include in a recall campaign.

Driver side door doesn’t open after unlocking unless you yank on handle 10+ times, and now driver side window no longer goes up. motor works for window to go down but not up, so it is now a safety concern! a quick google search reveals countless 2016 hyundai tucson owners experiencing the exact same thing- and always with the driver door only.

The car doors don’t open even after unlocking. i can hear and see the door is u locked but the door doesn’t open from outside. unable to open the door and get my kid out in case of emergency

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the rear driver’s side door latch would not unlock and could not be opened from inside or outside of the vehicle. the cause of the failure was not yet determined. the local dealer and manufacturer were not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 43,000.

Passenger side front door lock intermittently does not unlock either by pressing door handle or remote control. passenger can be trapped inside of vehicle in the event of an emergency egress being needed. problem is intermittent for now, but growing in frequency!

Locks and latches have stopped working. my rear passenger and driver side latches do not open. it is a safety hazard for anyone riding in my vehicle.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle would stall upon depression of the accelerator pedal without warning. the contact initially took the vehicle to an independent mechanic where the catalytic converter, spark plugs, and coil packs were replaced. eight months later, the failure returned and the same mechanic informed her that the evaporated oil had melted the catalytic converter and referred her to the dealer for assistance. the vehicle was then taken to the dealer on three separate occasions and each time the catalytic converter was replaced; however, despite the numerous replacements, the failure persisted. the manufacturer was notified of the failure but offered no assistance. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was 140,963.

This car is burning oil and locking up the engine while driving. this has happened multiple times now! i am changing the oil every couple two thousand miles instead of 3000, and sometimes even sooner than that. i was on the interstate a couple of times and the car will not accelerate. this is a danger to myself as well as other drivers. why is this not being investigated??? looking through the complaints, it has been happening to so many people and no one is doing anything about it!

Three of my windows stopped working within a few weeks of each other in june 2022 and july 2022. my car has approximately 19,000 miles on it. i took it to the dealership and they said that the window regulators need to be replaced. it costs $741 per window. this is a defect that is occurring with this car's make, model, and year. there are many online forums where other owners of the exact same type of vehicle are experiencing this failure. for example, in this forum there are over 10 owners that have the same issue. many owners of this car are unable to open their windows anymore unless they can afford to pay the high cost per window. this is putting people's safety at risk because, 1) your car's windows are an emergency exit point if you are in an accident and your doors are nonfunctional, 2) you can't communicate with law enforcement during a traffic stop which puts the officer at risk and yourself because you have to open your door when you can't roll your window down, 3) children in the back seats can't breathe well from the strong wind in their face when the window is stuck rolled down while you are driving. also debris can fly into the car because the window is not rolled up while driving. please consider these safety concerns and investigate the fact that there are so many of these cars experiencing this exact defect that is causing multiple windows to fail. this is one website with many forums that report this window failure with this exact type of car: https://www.hyundai-forums.com/search/1269536/?q=windows+tucson&o=relevance thank you in advance for your time to investigate this concern.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while operating the vehicle, there was a rattling noise and vibration coming from the steering wheel. additionally, while parking and turning the steering wheel in either direction, there was a clicking noise coming from the steering column. the vehicle was taken to the local dealer who diagnosed that the intermediate steering shaft was faulty and needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not yet repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure but no assistance was offered. the failure mileage was 64,000.

Rear passenger door will not open from outside or inside after unlocking. basically, the door stays locked. only after repetitive banging on the door handle (outside) will it sometimes open (more often it just stay locked - it may be days and dozens of attempts before it haphazardly opens). additionally, the front drivers side door does not open on the first pull from the outside (it requires at least 2 pulls - sometimes as many as 4 pulls to finally open). finally, the front passenger door is experiencing similar problems where it may take a second pull to open the door (this door only recently started having this problem and it opens normally most of the time). it can't be a coincidence that 3 out of the 4 doors on this vehicle are having problems with the door locks. so far the front doors open fine from the inside but the rear drivers side door is a serious safety hazard as i have a 3 yr child that sits in the back seat regularly. a simple google search brings up dozens of links and articles where owners of the same model vehicle are complaining of the exact same problem. it's obvious that this is a common issue with this vehicle but so far no recall even acknowledgement by the manufacturer has been issued. this is a safety issue - please help

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that after locking the front passenger’s side door, the door was seized in the closed position and could not be opened when unlocked. the contact indicated that extreme force was needed to pull the door handle while attempting open the door. the cause of the failure was not yet determined. the local dealer was notified of the failure. the manufacturer was not yet contacted. the failure mileage was 52,000.

Both rear doors do not open from the outside or inside, no child lock engaged. usually takes several tries locking/unlocking to get door open. in the event of a crash, passengers would not be able to exit the vehicle. not inspected, and no warning lamps.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the driver's side rear door was unable to be opened from inside or outside the vehicle. the dealer was made aware of the failure and scheduled an upcoming appointment for a diagnostic test. the vehicle was not yet diagnosed nor repaired. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 81,000.

I have been finding when going for an oil change, the mechanic is stating that my vehicle has no oil in it, no signs of a leak, and this has occurred multiple times in last couple months. now i check oil once a week and finding more often then not my oil is low and i need to add oil. not once has any warning light come on. what irritates me most is if this seems to be occurring with others - hyundai needs to do something about this. who knows how long i drove with low to no oil in my vehicle before knowing i had this problem. can't imagine the damage done to my engine!

Back passenger door will not open from time to time from the outside or inside. it unlocks and everything but you have to keep trying before it opens. i looked this up and it is common for the 2016 hyundai tucson. this is a defect that can be dangerous under certain circumstances.

Air bag light is staying on constantly. took it to the dealer and said it is the air bag control module. not covered under extended warranty. called hyundai and they said not covered since vehicle is at 69,000 miles. noticed hyundai has recalls for air bag modules on other vehicles.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while operating the vehicle, a clicking noise was present coming from the steering column while turning the steering wheel in either direction. the vehicle was taken to the local dealer who indicated the ticking noise was caused by loosened steering column bolts. the bolts were re-torqued and the failure was remedied. the contact indicated that approximately 40,000 miles later the ticking noise reoccurred. the vehicle was taken back to the dealer who diagnosed that the steering column bolts had loosened again. the bolts were again re-torqued and the failure was remedied. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 14,037. the consumer stated the 2nd occurrence happened on 07/20/2022 at 55,053 miles.

All 4 window regulators have failed. the first two were replaced by dealer, but now are refusing to replace other two. windows will not stay shut. have them wedged up with small pieces of carpet. the back two doors will not open either. they said they are fixing those.

While driving, the driver seat adjusted causing my seat to move up to the steering wheel. at the time i was on the expressway. i was too terrified to scream, i had to pull over to catch my breathe before i could continue driving to get home. i took my car to hyundai and the service man stated that it didn't happen when he drove it and that they didn't find anything wrong. i filed a complaint before and never heard anything back. the car seat still adjusts. i don't drive it as much now.

The passenger door will not open after being unlocked

3 of the 4 doors of my 2016 hyundai tucson are suddenly unable to be opened from the outside or the inside. there has been no damage to the vehicle. the driver door is able to be opened at this time. this is a major safety issue as passengers are not able to exit the vehicle in the case of an emergency/children passengers are not able to be removed from the vehicle. this seems to be a widespread issue for 2016 hyundai tucson customers. internet thread included below: https://www.cargurus.com/cars/discussion-t57988_ds1084478

Window motors and regulators are prone to failure. all 4 of the window motors/regulators have failed within the past year. apparently the regulator is made of plastic and falls apart easily. as a result, the windows can no longer be operated, and they can be moved up and down by hand from the exterior of the vehicle. safety is at risk because the integrity of the windows are compromised. in some cases windows will fall down during normal operation of the vehicle. no warning lamps were illuminated during this failure. note another complaint here: https://www.hyundai-forums.com/threads/window-regulator-2016-hyundai-tucson.671843/

Door handles on vehicle not working. when you go to pull back on the door handle it won’t open. i couldn’t get my nephew out of the car. very frightening. had to crawl through the hatch to get to him. it started one day with my driver door and i had to pull back at least twice or more before it opens. now the front passenger’s side door will not open unless pulling the handle from inside to let them in. back doors are not wanting to open from outside. the day my nephew was trapped no door would open. thank god the hatch opened. this is a serious safety issue. makes me nervous that one day i won’t be able to open my car doors from the inside too. i had trouble with that yesterday on the front passenger door. i don’t have kids and it’s just me a single lady that lives 5 minutes from work. i typically don’t have kids in my vehicle, this was the first time. made me look like a bad auntie putting my brother’s child in danger. there is hardly any wear on my vehicle, so there must be an issue with the door handles in general.

My car seemed to be lagging severely when accelerating and then started coughing when accelerating and the check oil light came on even though i had plenty of oil and had just had it changed. i took it into the dealership and they said that the check engine light was also flashing just so fast i couldn’t see it. several engine cylinders were apparently misfiring but it wasn’t covered by warranty. they installed new spark plugs and cleaned something to do with the fuel system and told me that would “be the starting place” several hundred dollars in. it worked fine. fast forward 4 months i take it in for its regular oil change and mention how it’s been lagging again and here we go again. same issue. according to my local mechanic a lot of these engines end up needing to be replaced completely to resolve the issue.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the accelerator pedal was depressed but the vehicle hesitated to respond while the rpm gauge was at 5000 rpm. additionally, the vehicle emitted an abnormally loud sound and there was smoke coming from underneath the hood. the contact veered to the side of the road and noticed a trail of coolant and oil leak on the highway. the vehicle was towed to the contact's residence. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the dealer and the manufacturer were not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 133,000.

My car would not accelerate over 20mph took into dealership in 5/2021 with 75,000 miles i was told i needed a new catalyst converter i replaced it. my oil started leaking in 10/2021 was told my oil pan gasket needed resealed i completed it. in april of 2022 i was recommended to get oil pan gasket resealed still. in july of 2022 my car slows down then stop on expressway. it starts back up i’m only able to go 20m0ph on the expressway this is not safe at alll with my children in the car it was very scary. dealership finally has an appointment 8/9 diagnoses car 8/11 stating my catalyst converter is clogged and need replacement that caused my car to stop and slow down as well as i need oil pan gasket burning oil/leaking oil. this is a safety problem the car is not 10yrs old and has less than 100,00 miles to stop without warning lightsss or anything on a moving fast expressway could have caused me and my kids life. this issue need to be taken serious and inspected because i continue to have the same issues with the car a little over a year!!

Rear driver side door will not open from the inside or outside while unlocked.

While driving the car started making a clicking noise. then shortly after the noise started, the car would no accelerate over 40mph. once pulled over after this, we discovered that there was no oil in the engine. there have been no signs of oil loss and we also get our cars oil changed regularly and we were towards the end and already had an oil changed scheduled. there were also no warring lights that ever became illuminated while this all happened so we had no idea of the issues until the car was already seizing up. this seems to be a common issue with 2016 hyundai tucson’s

I have a 2016 hyundai tucson and now that the vehicle is almost paid for, i am having issue with the blinker. when i put the let or right blinker on it stops blinking, also, my car smells like something is burning. i take good care of my car, i do routine maintenance on it when it is require, i have regular oil changes. i am taking to a hyundai shop this weekend

Door locks do not unlock. cannot get out of the car from inside and cannot get in to the car from the outside.

I have made multiple complaints to jenkins hyundai of leesburg about my car hesitating and not going like it should and almost causing multiple accidents because it wouldn’t go when it should. however, they stated nothing was out of the ordinary and to just drive it in sport mode. well i’m december of 2020, the turbo went out while driving home. they then wouldn’t fix it until i had a friend state that her dad worked at a diff location and that it was covered under warranty. they told me they had to do an investigation to see if it was covered under warranty or not. they kept my car for a few weeks before i got a phone call on new year’s eve stating my car was ready for pick up. meanwhile, there was an active recall with the brakes from september of 2020, that they in fact did not fix while having my vehicle there. fast forward to june 9, 2022, and my turbo went out again and there is water mixed with the oil in my car. i have made multiple reports along with others on the transmission issues and now making a report on the turbo. these vehicles are not safe, i don’t understand why they have not been recalled for these issues.

Right rear tail light wiring harness has short. since right turn single bulb replaced twice, passenger side rear door window stripped the teflon gear on door interior panel and door handle is not operational! since problem started, passenger door handle and window is non operational, drivers side door and window is not operational! 2016 hyundai tucson with 31,000 miles! dealership, billingsley hyundai and ford refuse to repair saying it’s out of warrenty february’22! vehicle has an electrical short and has had since 2019 when right turn signal bulb continues to burn out!

Rear drivers side door latch stopped working unprovoked. the door was working fine and was parked for the night. the next morning the rear drivers side door would not open from inside or outside upon unlocking doors. this is a safety concern due to the fact that in the event of an accident emergency services would have a difficult time accessing the rear passenger area of the vehicle delaying any medical attention that would possibly be needed in the event of an accident.

2 separate issues - oil is being consumed at alarming rate- not burning off and not leaking just disappearing at a rate of a quart every 200 miles -brake pedal is vibrating and clicking up while breaking, then goes straight to floor causing driver to release brake and then repress while stopping

Rear passenger door suddenly would not open from either the inside or outside. my child was in the car, and i could not get him out for some time. this was a safety concern even without an accident or emergency, and creates a potentially fatal situation if there is an accident or fire where a child would need to be retrieved from the vehicle. from internet searches, this is not an isolated incident, and should be addressed by the manufacturer. as a note, this is in addition to, and distinct from, the known issue of the front doors wearing out and not opening from the outside.

I have a 2016 hundai tucson limited 1.6 l turbo and have had a lot of problems with this car when i merge on a highway i put the foot on the gas and the car doesn’t move even though i have the foot to the floor and when i’m in stop and go traffic the car jerks like it wants to stall i brought the car to the dealership and told them what the problem is they could not duplicate my issue and they said there is nothing wrong with it and also they didn’t find any codes on the computer, next week i’m bringing my car back to the dealership for the same problem and i bet that they are not going to find any problems again. i’ve been driving over 45 years and never had this problem with any other car’s that i have owned, i’m afraid that one of this days i’m going to get hit from behind. i hope that the manufacture puts a recall on these cars soon, i’m ready to sell my car and never ever buy another hyundai again.

On multiple occasions the transmission failed to engage at slow speed then lunges forward when it does. it happens when your at a stop accelerate slowly to about 10 mph get off the accelerator then re-apply it. the engine revs but the transmission acts like it goes into neutral then catches a gear and lunges forward. it is unsafe because the driver behind you can hit you from behind, which almost happened to me, or you can hit the car in front of you when it lunges or worst hit a pedestrian because of the unpredictability of the transmission/ engine power engagement. the so called fix was a software issue that didn't fix it. mine still has it and when i told the dealer they said they couldn't duplicate the problem but it has happened so many times to me that i can make it fail. hyundai should be accountable for this but no one ever listens to the consumer until its to late. it asks below when it happened but it started shortly after i purchased the car and happened multiple times. but the one i absolutely remember was when i had my daughters in the car right after my daughters birthday.

While back out of my driveway in my 2016 hyundai tucson, it suddenly accelerated on its own out of control rendering me helpless and just along for the ride. finally stopped while in reverse the car went across the street crashing violently into my neighbors boat and engine was still reving until i shut it off after the crash. both my car and neighbors boat had major damage.

Both the rear driver side and rear passenger side door lock actuators have failed, making it impossible to open either door from inside or outside the vehicle. this is very dangerous in general, but especially young children are in the backseat.

Vacuum pump was recalled back in 2019 - t3c: tl tucson vacuum pump (19-01-010h). my car was “repaired” to fix the seal/cap. however, today the vacuum pump needs to be replaced. the engine light, brake assist and traction control lights all came on and stayed on. after talking with hyundai it appears as though back when the recall occurred, the minimum was repaired and proper replacement of the part was not taken. hyundai says they are no longer required to remedy the problem because they already addressed the recall back in 2019. is there any action enforceable to take toward hyundai to honor a complete repair of the recall rather than just slap a band-aid on it?

My engine started stalling on me and has loss of power then out of nowhere i started getting a knocking noise which was followed by a check engine light. i had a oil light flashing before this occurred but oil level was good. changed oil and filter and noise persisted along with stalling making it hard to drive anywhere safely. i haven't had it taken anywhere because i see this is a known issue on hyundai vehicles and newer models have recalls out on them. my vehicle only has 38,000 miles and shouldn't be having engine issues already.

Regulators and motor breaking in all windows without use. i can’t get a safety inspection with them not working. many complaints on the internet. if i can’t get a safety inspection, this should constitute a recall.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving approximately 35 mph, the rpm increased; however, the vehicle failed to respond. there was no warning light illuminated. there was an update performed on the transmission control module before; however, the failure reoccurred. the vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing; however, the mechanic was unable to duplicate the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the contact related the failure to nhtsa campaign number: 16v628000 (power train, electrical system) however, the vin was not included. the approximate failure mileage was 5,000.

Driver door and right rear door are having issues opening. unable to open right rear passenger door at all which is a safety concern. hyundai dealer stated nothing was wrong when i first reported the front door handle issues

The main power switch to the power windows is not operating properly. after extensive research into the problem i have noticed this is a frequent issue on the 2016 hyundai tucson. a severe thunderstorm had started and when i tried to put the passenger side rear window up it would not work. now the front passenger window is doing the same thing. the individual switches work but not the main switch on the driverside door. it brings the window down but will not go back up. i have to use the actual window switch on that door to raise them back up. i have not been to the dealer yet about this issue but feel there needs to be a recall for this item as 100's of other owners are complaining of the same issue on hynudai forum sites. the 2016 hyundai tucson model has been the center of several other recalls and i feel this needs to be addressed as soon as possible.

The vehicle is a 2016 hyundai limited 1.6 turbo. back around the first part of may, we were driving down the interstate when the vehicle lost power, the check engine light came on, and the engine began to vibrate. the engine is also burning oil. there were no warning signs prior to the incident and the lights did not come on until the incident occurred. we took it to a dealership and they did a compression test. i was told, i would need a new engine. there has since been a recall on hyundai engines, having the same issues mine has, but they did not include my vehicle in the recall. the 1.6 turbo engine that my vehicle has, seems to be the same engine as the hyundai veloster which has been recalled. they also included the 2017 hyundai tucson in this recall. the vehicle in its current state is not safe to drive as it loses power while you are driving. this vehicle is available for inspection upon request.

Three out of the four window regulators quit working over a two year period not all at once. the window motor and regulator still work, they just strip at the gear to lift them.

My 2016 hyundai tuscon 1.6 liter turbo threw a rod when i was driving home. all service lights turned on and we pulled over immediately just in time for the car to shut off completely. we had to push the car into a parking spot and saw that all of the oil had fallen out of the bottom. i have approximately 113k miles on the car. i have been religious with my service and maintenance. it was late at night and we were on a 2 lane levy road. thank goodness the second the lights came on we were in front of 1 of the 2 spots in a 9 mile stretch to pull off. this was extremely scary and dangerous. we had the car towed to the nearest shop where they inspected it and let me know that they have seen several other hyundai's come through with the same issue and they directed me to take it to the closest hyundai dealership so they could take care of it. it has been at dublin hyundai where they looked it over and neglected to cover the issue. it is still there now. dublin hyundai confirmed that i do need a new motor. they said that they will not cover it due to "extreme neglect" due to the car fax report. i am currently seeking out the rest of my maintenance records that were not reported. there are a total of 10 oil changes over the course of the past 5 years not reported but that have most definitely been done. there were no symptoms of this problem prior to the failure. this is my third hyundai in a row and i have never had any issues prior. i have always been a happy hyundai owner until now. i am beyond disappointed with the way that this case has been handled and would greatly appreciate assistance in learning my next steps to a resolution of repair or replacement.

Window regulators inoperative on front left window and passenger window on 2016 hyundai tucson with only 23,635 miles. windows remained in down position creating a dangerous driving condition. prior to this, windows were only opened occasionally for drive up banking or pharmacy drive up.

Window motors, modules and regulators go out frequently (shortly after warranty ends). this usually happens one window after another in short time & is a very costly fix of $500+ per window.

Last june at about 82k miles my car started making a knocking noise while in town. decided to drive the short distance home and right as i pulled in the driveway the engine light flashed briefly but didn't stay on. first thing i did was check the oil and there was no oil in the engine at all. called all around to dealers and since this was in the middle of the pandemic it was a nightmare and i had to wait like 4 weeks and get the car towed twice to a shop that had the shortest wait. the car had regular oil changes and wasn't overdue for an oil change. there was no oil spots that would suggest it had been leaking and zero smoke to show it was burning off the engine at any time, there also was no check oil light that came on at any time to warn that the oil was low. i wasn't able to be provided a loaner until they could diagnose the vehicle and confirm it wasn't my negligence. turns out this is a regular issue with this model/engine. i can't imagine what it would have been like had i been driving 70mph down the freeway. now the engine is at 101k miles and it came with only a 10k 12 month warranty and it is now going through a quart of oil every 1k miles it seems. have an appointment again to have it looked at in but not until the first of november. so now i have to check my oil all the time to make sure it doesn't run dry again...

Car is burning engine oil at the rate of one quart a week after normal city driving. usual and frquent oil changes and almost dry when going in for every 3000 miles oil change. took to a private (non-hyndai) mechanic shop christian brothers in colorado and told that perhaps that my car had some engine damage or problems due to burn of engine oil and not leaking. next car began to have engine check light go on and off with never staying on for more than one day. called hyundai dealership and told that light had to be on solid and complete for inspection. this week car starting misfiring and dragging when acclerating. black smoke coming out of exhaust and check engine light illuminated and stayed on. could not get into delaership until november of 2022 and currently september of 2022. once again took car to christian brothers for diagnostics and told car was full of carbon and misfiring and told unsafe to drive and would not work on car as they believed that engine was damaged/defective and needed to be replaced. made appointment with planet hyundai in golden, colorado where i purchased the car brand new. october 20th is my appointment and car will need to be towed. undriveable and needing car to work to see my autistic clients in their homes. final event with engine and misfiring happened at 104,000 just past the warranty time even though no one would look at the car despite my former complaints and concerns prior to the warranty expiration.

I have taken my car in to dealership a few times over the last couple years,complaining about excessive oil burning and loss of power.the last time,the dealership told me the catalyc converter was clogged.i had it repaired but asked dealership,if engine doesnt get repaired itll happen again.they told me its fine and engine was fine.well,it isn't fine and went and spoke to a few auto repair shops and they told me if car is under warranty,car needs to go back to dealershipto have engine looked at and repaired..i feel i'm definitely getting the run-around.i can not keep replacing a catalyc converter every year and the problem not being fixed.the situation of losing power while driving is putting myself and family at risk.this is very concerning and life threatening.im still well within my warranty and feel unsafe and ripped off.

Rear passenger door became unable to be opened. started out as only a some times issue, but the door can no longer be opened at all. i had a previous car, same year, make, and model that had the same thing happen to both rear passenger doors. both times it happened the car was still under warranty so i did not have to pay to fix it. that car was totaled and now i have this one. this car is no longer under warranty now though. so this is the 3rd time this problem has happened between 2 cars that i have had that are the same year, make, and model

Window stuck in down position - forums full of this defect with repairs costing $500+ per window; windows protect you from weather and debris and when stuck up or down present a safety hazard.

Car suddenly lost significant acceleration power in normal conditions. according to hyundai dealer inspection, the rod bearing failed and pressure in the engine was lost. safety risk was causing an accident because of loss of power. no accident occurred due to being so close to the right shoulder. this would have been far more dangerous if this was on a 6-7 lane highway causing major accidents due to being an obstacle to normal traffic flow. no warning lights or lamps were displayed before incident.

Passenger front door will not open from exterior upon unlocking. can only open door from inside vehicle by reaching over and releasing inside lever.

On oct. 14, 2022 i had to take my car in to repair/replace front passenger side window regulator. the window no longer would go up and down. $807.51. yesterday, oct. 20 my driver's side front window failed. another $807 repair. i am a senior citizen (woman) on a fixed income also experiencing recent ian hurricane damage and repairs. am i to expect the rest of the windows to fail? do i have some recourse with hyundai?

The window regulator spool has melted on all 4 windows. this vehicle has less than 65000 miles and this should not be an issue. this is a safety issue. we have read hundreds of comments online of the same issue.

Driver-side rear door fails to open from the inside or the outside. currently, the passenger seated on that side of the vehicle has to enter and exit the vehicle using the door on the opposite side, which can easily be a safety issue. thankfully, we have not been in an emergency incident or car accident where someone has had to use that door to get out of the car in a hurry. the failure to unlock the door and open seems to stem from an actuator mechanism that is faulty. (the same issue/complaint has been mentioned by other owners, including failure of more than one door latch, e.g. https://www.hyundai-forums.com/threads/help-16-tucson-limited-intermittent-door-unlock-fob-issue.690557/#post-6162832; https://www.carproblemzoo.com/hyundai/tucson/door-latch-problems.php, ) i contacted the local hyundai dealer about this issue and was only able to get an appointment two months out (which will be tomorrow)! i will have more details regarding the repair associated with this issue after my appointment. but it seems like this should be a safety related recall given the potential danger of being trapped in a vehicle in the event of an emergency or an accident.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving at 30 mph, the vehicle began to stall and he saw smoke coming out from underneath the hood of the vehicle. several unknown warning lights were illuminated. the contact veered to the side of the road and quickly exited the vehicle. the contact waited several minutes. the contact stated that upon opening the hood of the vehicle, he saw flames. the contact was able to extinguish the fire by shutting the hood closed. the contact stated that in the process of exiting the vehicle, he bumped his knee and twisted his ankle and received care from his caregiver. the vehicle was towed to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the engine needed to be replaced. the engine was replaced under an unknown recall. however, the contact stated that after the repair, the vehicle was experiencing rough starts and the engine was misfiring while driving. the vehicle was taken to a second dealer, ron tonkin hyundai (675 ne burnside rd, gresham, or 97030), where it was diagnosed that the cylinder was misfiring. the dealer replaced the fuel injector, the spark plugs, and the cylinder head, and completed an oil change. however, the engine was knocking upon starting the vehicle. the dealer informed the contact that the engine needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure and advised the contact that he would need to pay an engine control unit (ecu) repair fee. the failure mileage was approximately 90,000.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving 70 mph, the vehicle decelerated without warning. the contact stated that after several seconds the vehicle continued to operate normally. the vehicle was taken to the dealer to be diagnosed; however, the mechanic was unable to determine the cause of the failure. the failure persisted. the manufacturer was not contacted. the failure mileage was 2,400.

Window regulators failing on all windows. drivers side is stuck open and will not close. all others are stuck closed and will not go down.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that on three separate occasions, the window regulator for the front driver’s, front passenger’s, and rear driver’s side windows failed to operate as designed. the contact also stated that once the window regulators failed, the window would slide down independently while driving. the vehicle was taken to the dealer after each failure and the window regulators were replaced out of pocket. the manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. the vehicle was also out of warranty. the failure mileage was approximately 28,000. the contact has had all 4 window motors replaced as well as purchased an extended warranty for the vehicle. the contact has notified by hyundai that other tucson owners were experiencing the same issues.

When locking all doors and then unlocking doors the passenger door will not open from the outside. you can open it from the inside however in an accident or fire, no one could open this door. very dangerous and i have seen numerous complaints about the door locking/latch issues

There have been several incidents where my hyundai tucson could have caused a major accident with another vehicle. the first time, i was driving down a hill and i barely could control the car. it began to jerk and i had to gradually steer it into another lane out of traffic. another time, the oil just began to spout out from under the car while i was driving. it's still difficult keeping oil in the car, but the mechanic says there's no leak. lastly. my engine light has been blinking off and on , and the mechanic changed the spark plugs and a number 2 coil, but i am still having engine problems. i was given the engine code p1326 from their diagnosis. since purchasing the car with only about 43000 miles, i have had to replace the transmission, catalytic converter. get a tune up, spark plugs and a coil, and get the drivers side window fixed. all of this has come to over $5000, and now i'm told the engine needs to be replaced. something about the camshaft.

The check engine light came on, on my dashboard, so i took my car to honest-1 auto care (certified mechanic), on oct 18 (i could get in faster with honest-1.) the manager printed off a hyundai technical service bulletin, dated april 2022, entitled engine warranty extension (txxm). he explained that i needed a new engine, and that i had to take it to the dealership. i drove directly to the hyundai dealership. they were very busy that day, but the manager told me i could bring my car in for evaluation the following saturday morning. i drove carefully, because my car didn't have a lot of acceleration. as i was driving to work, early on oct 21, in the cold and in the dark, my car slowed down dramatically and completely stopped. i was able to restart it and coast into a nearby parking lot. then my car was towed to the dealership, where it remains still, awaiting a new engine. i was lucky there wasn't much traffic the morning my car died. i still get upset, when i think of what might have happened, if my car had died on the interstate or in the middle of a dangerous intersection. at no time, did the dealership say this warning light/situation was potentially dangerous, even though i showed the manager the hyundai technical service bulletin.

Car having issues accelerating, switching gears and will not move when gear is in reverse.

Without any warning, previous issues or unusual sounds, the rear, passenger window would not roll up. i had a child in the backseat at the time, which was the first concern and the second being a security issue after the fact. in addition, after doing some research it sounds as though this is an ongoing issue with the hyundai's (all windows) and should be considered for manufacture recall. lastly(just as an "fyi")the replacement parts can not be found for the rear window specifically which further confirms that the window motor &/or regulator in the hyundai's are faulty.

This vehicle model (hyundai tucson) is prone to breakdowns in power windows, especially front power windows, due to faulty gear in window regulator unit. online forums are all complaining about this issue and the replacement part (regulator unit with motor) is being sold on amazon and ebay, a sure sign of high demand for the part. this is a dangerous safety issue as the first route of escape in an accident when door cannot be opened is the front windows. the cost to replace the part with labor is around $500 per window so many owners will rather live with the potentially dangerous issue without making repairs. there should be a recall issued by hyundai to repair inoperable windows and to reimburse owners who have already made repairs.

The contact’s daughter owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that his daughter took the vehicle for routine maintenance for an oil change however, the contact’s daughter was informed that gasoline was seen in the oil. no warning light was illuminated. the contact then stated that he took the vehicle to the dealer where it was diagnosed that no fuel was seen in the oil. the contact then stated that he took the vehicle to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that gasoline was in the oil. the contact was concerned for his daughter’s safety while driving the vehicle. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 89,000. the vin was not included.

Driver side door doesn't unlock using keyfob or by pressing the button to unlock. it takes several attempts before door opens which causes a great concern for safety especially in areas that will require me to hurry and get into my vehicle if i'm alone or after putting my grandson in his carseat. there were no warnings to this happening and it is available for inspection upon request. at this time my car is not under warranty due to warranty running out and i can not afford to pay out of pocket. please advise what can be done.

My car was doing a shocking change of speed all of a sudden, for example i would be driving and accelerating, but the car would not speed above 40mph, and while i was still pressing on the accelerator, it would do like a shocking movement and accelerate all of sudden. yesterday, december 8th, 2022, i was driving on the highway on the 3rd lane and while driving the call did a shocking jump and all of a sudden the speed went down to 20mph, i panic of course because all the cars where going fast, it was a nightmare for me to change lanes because i couldnt manipulate the speed of my car.

Similar to the recall for hyundai's newest vehicles with its dual clutch system, and to its recall for the 2016 tucson my vehicle will be unresponsive when we accelerate, delayed or no acceleration, jerking, shuddering, shaking, and stalling. not sure if this issue was covered under [xxx] et al, v. hyundai motor america. we had been complaining of the way my 2016 hyundai tucson ([xxx]) was driving since apr 2019 (32,299 miles), and again mar 2021 (44,857 miles), and on both instances we were told that was normal operation because of the car's dual clutch system. now that the car has passed the warranty period (5 year/60,000 miles), hyundai is telling us we have to replace the dual clutch, and that they're not covering it because the vehicle is now outside of the warranty period. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

Transmission is defective. car wanted to override my foot braking at lights & stop signs. the potential for the car to force me into traffic or a vehicle or wall in front of me made for a hazardous situation. coconut creek hyundai service department (via [xxx]) stated the transmission had an internal failure & must be replaced. i do not know if the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others have inspected the transmission -- i am only aware that coconut creek hyundai service department has inspected it. there were no warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. it first appeared in early november 2022. i tried to make an appointment & could not so i took it to the dealership on november 8, 2022. i bought this car from coconut creel hyundai as certified used on september 6, 2019. coconut creek hyundai in coconut creek, fl 33073 has had my car since nov. 8, 2022. they replaced the defective transmission with another defective transmission the 1st week of december. i have had to pay out of my pocket for a rental car. today is december 14, 2022. the least hyundai can do is provide a car for me. the dealership has not done so. hyundai usa (case #: [xxx]) has not. my warranty only covers 10 days at $35.00 per day. a rental that i can use cost $40/day. i waited until december 1, 2022 to rent hoping my car would be fixed within a reasonable amount of time. my 10 days & my patience with this corporate pass the buck attitude has ended. i have no idea if the dealership got another new transmission or if they have installed it. this dealership has major communication issues. hyundaiusa has lost a 3-time hyundai owner. i just hung up with supervisor [xxx] from hyundaiusa & she cannot authorize payment for a rental car nor speak to my case manager ([xxx]) about rental car payment/reimbursement. i have been without my car since nov. 8, 2022. i stopped using my car nov. 3, 2022 because it was too dangerous to do so. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

While driving on the highway, traveling about 70mph, check engine light comes on and car looses power. no previous warning signals, smells, smoke, exhaust, drive behavior. dealership said the piston ring on cylinder 2 is almost completely broken and the repair is a full engine replacement. dealership has quoted me $18,000 for the repair, which is what i paid when i bought it used in 2019. at this point, i'm dealing with catastrophic engine failure and hyundai won't do anything about their faulty product and is seeking to take full advantage. insurance won't cover it and the car is out of warranty. i have never owned a worse car than this hyundai. it's the final straw in a list of issues i've had with the car since i purchased it.

Inability to move the vehicle while in traffic, other 2016 hyundai tucsons have a recall for this problem. however, mine does not under my vin, and the same exact thing is happening as described in 2016 hyundai tucson powertrain recall. (16v628000). my car doesn’t want to go when i stop at stoplights right away, leading to a risk of an accident. no warning signs prior to problem. noticed a few weeks after purchasing my car in october of 2021.others in car have noticed as long with maintenance people have driven it.

The contact's husband owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the rear passenger’s side door was unable to open from inside or outside the vehicle. additionally, the driver's side rear passenger door was also unable to open. no warning lights were illuminated. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 45,000.

The windows stop working. mine has been replaced twice with 15k miles. when you cant roll up your windows it leaves you exposed to be car jacked in a big city, or objects to fly in the car, which could hurt the driver.

Engine knocking and loosing power under acceleration.

I was driving my vehicle on highway 45 north in spring tx and my engine caught on fire while driving, my tucson was on fire and started smoking i had to pull over and getvhelpp

The vechicle was recalled for door locks that failed to work. within weeks 3 of the automatic windows failed. one of the windows won't stay closed and can be easily opened by anyone simply pressing on the window and pushing it down. its impossible to lock the vehicle for protection. the other windows won't roll down its impossible to use them to exit the vehicle in an emergency.

While driving on an interstate the engine lost power and i pulled over to the shoulder. popped the hood and the engine cover was blown back and the engine was on fire! had 3 passengers, dog, and luggage in the car. was able to get most out before the fire spread. left family stranded hours from home on side of interstate. unsure of exact cause of the engine fire. fire spread to entire car before fire department came to put it out.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle entered drive-safe mode with the check engine warning light illuminated. due to the failure, the vehicle was towed to a local dealer where it was discovered that the engine was extremely low on oil. the contact was informed that the knock sensor and spark plugs needed to be replaced. upon retrieving the vehicle, the contact noticed that the engine was consuming an excessive amount of engine oil. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic for an oil change and the mechanic informed him that the oil consumption issue was related to an unstated tsb. the mechanic referred the contact to the manufacturer to report the failure. the manufacturer was notified of the failure and a case was filed. the manufacturer then referred him to another dealer for an oil consumption test. once at the dealer, the vehicle did not pass the oil consumption test. the contact was also informed that the pistons were failing; however, the engine could not be replaced under warranty until the engine completely failed. the vehicle was not repaired and remained in the possession of the dealer. the failure mileage was 72,856.

Put the car in drive and car failed to move with motor revving. car finally moved about 20 mph max. attempted to shift the car in and out of gear as well as shut it off and problem still existed. got it home and made arrangements for tow truck to haul to dealer. in moving it the next day to prepare for tow truck the transmission worked normally and drove it to the dealer. dealer could not duplicate the problem so they said there hands were essentially tied. did and internet search on 2016 tuscon dct transmission problems and found the problem is very common. hyundai attempted to address it with a computer update which this car has had. many people have been placed in very dangerous situations with this problem. no warning lights were displayed despite the car being essentially undriveable . this is a known safety issue which should be addressed by the manufacturer. a car that suddenly becomes undriveable in traffic or leaving you stranded in the middle of nowhere is definitely a safety issue.

Engine failure while going 70mph on the highway - huge safety issue! spark plugs totally covered in oil and the engine has major known oil consumption issues. also 3 of our 4 door actuators broke - huge safety issues as we have kids in our back seats in car seats. this form doesn't have enough room for the letter i have composed about the specifics of the situations. hyundai has known issues with their engines and some are under recall. we were told ours is not under recall and they will not fix it or help at all to fix it even though many of their engines have/had the same issues as ours and those engines are under recall.

I heard a knocking sound on the morning on 1/6/22, immediately took it to a hyundai (capital hyundai) dealership who informed me it was a known issue they are having to rebuild tons of engines. they would not be able to even look at my car for a few weeks, but i needed to leave it because the engine could seize at any moment. while thy offer loaner vehicles, i wasn't eligible because of the time before they even could look at my car. after paying to rentals out of pocket for two weeks, i received a call today to tell me that because i'm not the original owner (i'm the 2nd owner) they are not honoring the rebuild and i could pay them $8300 plus and additional $2500 to repair their known issue that their service manager acknowledged. not to mention hyundai recent class action lawsuit in 2021. if that wasn't enough, i just received a call from hyundai corporate office to say sorry if you were the original owner, we could help. i asked the representative if it was a company practice to use that as a deterrent from acknowledging their design/mechanical fault to save cost and she said i'll make a note of that. is there anything i can do? my vehicle has been serviced every 3000 miles and i have my records. considering contacting my attorney as well

Earlier last year (a few months after purchase), i took my vehicle in for a routine oil change and was informed there was barely any oil in the vehicle. the prior oil change occurred less than 3500 miles before, plus there were no warning lights. after this occurred a second time (only 2600 miles between changes), the dealership recommended a series of oil consumption tests. i was informed the vehicle failed and the information would be provided to corporate. hma (corporate) declined to address the issue as i was the 2nd owner and purchased the vehicle outside of warranty mileage, 60k. vehicle was purchased with under 61k miles. with a recent oil change, i was informed that it is a matter of time before my engine fails. i do not know when this will occur and the vehicle gives me no warning that the oil is low.

The automatic windows broke in all 4 windows and i am unable to roll down my windows in the case of an emergency. the dealer confirmed this is an issue. this is a known issue on the 2016 tucson.

When driving the vehicle is slow to accelerate hence posing a risk of being rear ended. it makes loud noises when going down hill and it tends to slow down even when you're foot is on the gas pedal. this is a concern for me since i have a small child that rides with me to and from school. the passenger a d driver doors jam on multiple occasions. the non acceleration especially when merging on highways or after traffic light stops is very dangerous since the person behind has no idea what's happening. when you stop the vehicle on a hill at a traffic stop and it's time to go on green the vehicle tends to pull back abit before accelerating, making the person behind wary of being hit. the loud noises made by the vehicle especially driving down a hill are just annoying, if you break to go slower, the noise is even louder. the lack of acceleration and jamming that the vehicle has me very worried for my safety and that of my young child, since we use the vehicle everyday for school drop offs and pickups and work. i am wary of driving it for any other reason that that which isn't fair because i pay for the car each month!!

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle lost motive power. no warning lights were illuminated. the vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 78,000.

The car started to shake while driving on the highway and it lost power causing it to slow down dramatically, the car driving behind almost hit my car. the issue started with the engine losing motor oil, the dealership said there were no oil leaks and maybe the head gasket needed to be replaced. after the incident one the highway, the car was towed to the closes dealership for service, after diagnosing it was determine that cylinders 1 and 2 are miss-firing and the piston were stuck making it loose compression. dealer said that they have seen this before, but my vin does not take part of a recall campaign with other cars having the same symptoms.

Driver's side passenger door sounds like it is unlocking when i use the key fob or the interior power lock on the driver's door, but the passenger door can only be opened if i reach from the driver's seat across the center console to manually open the door using the handle. no way to open the door from the outside using the outer handle, even if it looks like the lock is fully open from the inside. no dashboard warning symbols. this appears to be the subject of a technical service bulletin, hyundai tsb 21-bd-006h, so i will be contacting my local hyundai dealer next week to set up an appointment for diagnostics and repair, hopefully covered under the extended warranty described in the tsb.

Unable to roll passenger window down using the power control on the driver's door. took it to a hyundai dealership for diagnosis and repair. it cost $506.67 to fix, driver front main window switch was replaced.

Has been happening for the last few years, but recently got worse: very difficult to get car to move forward from a dead stop, car would shudder like it was going to stall out. took car to a hyundai dealership on october 4, 2022, who were able to replicate the problem. issue was for transmission to be replaced under drivetrain warranty. once transmission had been replaced, there were no more problems with moving into first gear from a stop.

Rear door on the driver's side will not open from the outside or the inside. this is a known problem but there is no recall. i called my local dealership and they won't guarantee that this is under warranty, and they won't give me an appointment for 6 weeks. hyundai and it's service reps are clearly not concerned with their customers.

Rear liftgate did not latch on three occasions this winter when temperatures were below freezing down to -4 degrees. the liftgate would lower but not latch properly. dash would indicate that lift gate was not latched. attempts to latch manually were unable. during the drive home, the lift gate would moved freely. in order to not risk spilling cargo, we moved everything out of the trunk area.

2016 hyundai tucson front right passenger door latch does not allow door to be opened from the outside. no warning. research shows this as a definite safety issue on several hyundai models and has been for years but see no recall. doors can be impacted from both inside and outside with no warning. crawling over the seats from the inside to open the door or being trapped in vehicle are a real possibility. i have a scheduled appointment but understand it could be a costly repair that should be considered a replaceable manufacturer’s defects and a safety hazard!!!! car only has 66,000 miles.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while accelerating, the vehicle started to lose motive power. the check engine warning light was intermittently illuminated. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed and the mechanic retrieved fault code: p1326 (ksds). the vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the knock sensor detection system failed and needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed that she needed to provide proof of ownership. the failure mileage was approximately 55,000.

Engine started knocking, check engine light came on and car went in to “limp mode”. car needs new engine.

My used 2016 hyundai tucson eco, 1.6 turbo, currently with 118,000 miles has been consuming 1 quart of oil every 500 miles. unfortunately, my 5 year warranty by mileage has passed. since the vehicle warning system doesn't have a low oil light; if you don't stay vigilant checking the oil level dipstick, the engine could fail and seize up during usage without warning, not ideal while driving the vehicle on the highway, which this vehicle does frequently. the vehicle was inspected by a hyundai dealership service department and hyundai indicated we do not qualify for engine replacement because the mileage is too high. nothing in written was provided, just verbal notification. about $1,000 was spent on "cleaning" the engine and replacing the spark plugs and other effected components, with no improvement on oil consumption. after researching on-line, several sites indicate this type of engine failure for our model is common for the type of engine and hyundai is well aware of it. why no recall then? also saw a few articles that canada has recently recalled several hyundai motors for similar issues for replacement. a rebuilt engine is around $5,000; not an option for us at this time.

2022 my wife's 2016 engine began making a noise. this was a known safety problem with the engines but a recall was never issued. instead there was a lawsuit against hyundai in 2020 and 2021 in which consumers were compensated for their cost, or received a new engine.however, her engine went out in 2022. she did not get that benefit. hyundai paid for a portion and she had to pay a portion for a new engine. this should have been a recall! now currently 2022 & 2023, hyundai's alarm is defective which is causing theft, and car jackings. this too is a known safety issue and nothing is being done unless she pays $550 for a security feature to be added to the vehicle. this is a problem! hyundai should pay for this! she read that the kia and hyundai vehicles at issue don’t come with an anti-theft device called an immobilizer, which uses a chip to authenticate a key against the car’s electronic control unit. an immobilizer, which can be found in most modern cars, prevents the vehicle from being started if the key is not detected. it’s also been reported that some of the windows in the affected vehicles may not be connected to the cars’ security system, meaning they can be broken without the alarm being triggered, per the case. it stated, these vulnerabilities have caused thieves to view kia and hyundai vehicles as “easy targets,” especially after a viral social media trend highlighted. now state farm announced they are not accepting new hyundai customers. more than likely my insurance is going to increase and the value will decrease.i need this governing body to govern and have hyundai right their wrong. issue a recall and do what is best for the consumers and not the company! she has been in contact with hyundai national consumer department and it appears that her communication efforts aren't successful. she purchased her first hyundai excel in 88.our immediate family have since purchased four hyundai's. do the right thing! issue a recall. from a concerned husband!

I am having problems with the driver side door. the latch is not working properly. the door gets stuck and doesn't open all the time from the outside. or i have to tug hard 2 to 3 times before it will open. i had this problem with the passenger side door. it would only open from the inside. hyundai fixed this for free because it was still under warranty. now i'm having the same issue with the driver side door. i read in all the reviews and comments that other people are having the same issue and have filed a complaint but nothing has been done. why is this no getting solved? or recalled? i bought my 2016 hyundai new. it only has 43, 000 miles. i take good care of my hyundai. what is hyundai going to do to resolve this matter. how many people need to file a complaint in order to get this resolved? a response will be greatly appreciated. thank you.

Massive oil consumption issue that lead to a knocking motor and my wife and kids stranded on the side of the interstate.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the front passenger’s side door and the rear driver’s side door would not open remotely or manually, from inside or outside the vehicle. the cause of the failure was not yet determined. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the local dealer was not contacted. the failure mileage was 160,000. the vin was not available.

On december 27, 2022 i was driving on the highway (interstate 64 in illinois westbound exit 16) and my car's engine failed at around noon. it was working fine that morning. the car started giving a rattling sound and wasn't speeding up and the "low oil pressure" light came on. i got off the highway and as i was turning into a valvoline the car completely stopped. it has been at a hyundai dealership in st. louis for the last month and a half and they do not feel this is something they are responsible for.

Driver door power window control fails. window won't go up or down while the window motor in the door can be heard operating. after the failure it is possible to manually pull the window glass up and down in it's track. the glass moves freely in it's track. the weight of the glass is sufficient to prevent the window from remaining closed, ie the glass drops down into the door if it is not held up. window must be manually wedged or some how mechanically held in the closed position. this is an obvious theft concern if the vehicle cannot be locked. problem identified; the power regulator drum is a plastic that deteriorates with time. the splines in the drum strip away and the power motor shaft spins freely in the drum, in both directions.

My vehicle is burning excessive amounts of oil and no leaks can be found. almost one quart every 750 to 1,000 miles. the turbo went bad recently and had to be replaced at a cost of $1,400 which, i'm told, is possibly due to the oil consumption problem. all services have been done at hyundai dealership every 3,000 - 5,000 miles. i travel the interstate every day and am worried about engine failure in rush-hour traffic. dealership indicates the only thing they can do is replace engine at a cost of at least $12,000!!

There was a previous recall with some of these vehicles where car seems to have acceleration problem after being at stop and the vehicle has difficulty accelerating and shifting gears. this has happened while in the middle of traffic and driving which could have caused an accident. not sure if it is something with the transmission or what the issue is. the vehicle has been taken twice to hyundai service centers and they cannot seem to find a problem but yet it still exists and is a safety hazard when suddenly the car stops accelerating after a stop. this seems to happen randomly and more often now. this was a previous recall for other same make, model and year vehicles but somehow ours was not included and i feel it is potentially having the same or similar issue. the vehicle is available for inspection. all the check engine and lights come on when the vehicle is turned off and then eventually turn off.

The hyundai engine is defective and consumes oil at a rate of 5 quarts every 3,000 miles. it ran completely out of oil and left me stranded on the highway in rush hour traffic 3 hours from home. several people were put at risk! no warning lights; no check engine and no oil light until the car stalled completely. i was able to add oil and get the car in limp mode to the dealership where they ran oil consumption tests, and it failed due to being 106k miles. the car was returned to me and i was told to watch the oil. weeks later the car broke down again in the middle of the road. the spark plug tips were burnt completely off and there was a dime sized hole in a valve. multiple mechanics outside of hyundai agree that both the plugs and the valve damage are a direct result of the defective engine. again, hyundai has denied all claims and refuses to acknowledge any wrongdoing on their part, despite the amount of claims, lawsuits and upset customers stacked against them.

I am referring to two notices; see attached. inability to accelerate from a stop and rough idle in drive. the dealership, demontrond hyundai service center will not repair as a recall. please advise. thank you, [xxx] [xxx] [xxx]. due to this problem, the car is hesitant to accelerate which causes problems information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

Cheap plastic regulator for the driver side window broke and can't roll up my window

Passenger rear doors fail to un-lock completely , so unable to open using outside handles and inside handles. passenger rear door completely unusable , drivers side rear door works 50% of the time after several pulls on door handles. will not fully unlock with any switches or key fob. safety risk in case of accident with children in the back seats.

The door latch has failed on now 2 of my doors. the rear driver side door will not open from either the inside or outside and the front passenger door will not open from the outside without pulling the handle 5 to 7 times. i have looked at the other comments from other people with this car and this is a known issue, this should be made a recall since so many people are having the same issue.

My car is currently around 126,000 miles. i got a tune up last year. about a week ago the car started to jumping and driving very slowly while i was on the highway. the check engine light started flashing so i pulled over. after a few minutes i attempted to drive up and the car made it. i spoke with my mechanic and scheduled to bring it into him after getting the check engine light code read. the codes were related to a misfire on spark plug 2 and 4. i then had those replaced. when picking up the car, my mechanic let me know that the engine was producing metal shaving and they were getting on the spark plugs which was causing the issues to keep according. he let me know i would probably need a new motor. after doing some research i found hyundai tucson around my same year have a similar issue with the motor going out very early in the cars life. i’m not sure why they weren’t already included but i believe the 2016 hyundai tucson need to be investigated for the issues as well. the car is only worth $7,000 with a working motor so it doesn’t make sense to buy a new engine but i still own payment on this vehicle and it’s completely unfair for hyundai to vehicles like this and not take accountability. i’m planning to get the code read on the car again and actually write down the number so i can reference it here for you information.

The vehicle engine stopped working while on the interstate. the oil, battery and engine lights all came on with no warning. i was able to safely pull aside in order to avoid an accident. the vehicle was towed to the dealership where it was diagnosed to be an engine block failure. after doing my research i learned that hyundai had a theta engine settlement from 2021 however my 2016 hyundai tucson was not listed in the settlement. the years that were affected skipped 2016 and 2017. online i have found many 2016 owners with the same issue. the vehicles built in 2016 and 2017 also needed to be reviewed for faulty engine blocks. this is a safety hazard. my vehicle has been in the dealership awaiting a new engine for over 7 weeks. hyundai says that part is on backorder. there has been so many vehicles in need of a new engine due to the faulty block that the manufacturer can't keep up. and we are stuck paying car rental fees.

Engine light came on feb 26th car started shaking got it towed to the dealership morning of feb 27th was told: foiled oil returning ring caused oil consumption, burning oil overheated valves and caused cylinder wall damage and 4 valves to burn holes in them leading to low engine compression and loss of power. engine needs to be replaced to fully correct the issue. hyundai is refusing to cover the cost because i am 2nd owner, even though my car has under 100,000 miles on it.

On sunday, february 26, 2023, as i was en route to my home in liberty hill, texas, i heard a noise from what seemed to be under the hood. the noise sounded somewhat like a card in bike spokes. no warning lights were lit. when i arrived home, i had a neighbor listen to the noise. his opinion was that it sounded like the rods & to take it to a mechanic. i had a friend take me to the nearest garage/mechanic on monday to make an appointment. i took my car to cross tech automotive at 8 am on february 28. the 5 miles to cross tech was the only time i drove the car after the initial noise on sunday 2/26/2023. the technician remarked that it was crazy that no warning lights were on, given the noise made by my car. after the car was examined, i was told that my car had no oil in it. i had routine oil changes done throughout the time i owned the car since late 2015. in fact, i’d asked the mechanics to do an oil change while the car was in their facility. there were never any oil on my driveway to alert me to a problem. there had been no sign of any problem until the noise i heard 2 days prior. and never a warning light of any kind. i was given an estimate of $12,000.00 to replace the motor, including labor. because it didn’t make sense to spend $12,000 on a vehicle that was likely worth $15,000 prior to this problem, it was necessary to buy a different car. after doing an internet search, i discovered that excess oil consumption appears to be a problem with 2016 hyundai tucsons, among other hyundais and kias. i was never made aware of any issues by hyundai motor company. the technician who diagnosed the problem wrote a brief description of what he found. i can provide this description. the invoice was for the diagnosis not repairs of any kind.

All 4 windows have a failed regulator. it's a plastic gear attached to the window motor. the windows do not stay up/closed. i am afraid they will fall and break while driving. the hyundai dealership quoted 3,800 to repair them.

On the way to work this morning, the rear lift gate came unlatched and did not stay secure. although the lift gate did not raise while on the highway, it did rattle and bounce. the temperature outside was approximately 21 degrees fahrenheit. a couple other similar events have occurred at below freezing temperatures.

We never missed a service on the vehicle and with 1,000 miles until the next oil change the engine light came on. the oil had dried out with nothing leaking. the engine seemed to just be burning through oil far quicker then the recommended time to get your oil changed.

Arrived home and went to open rear passenger door to remove recently purchased groceries and rear door will not open. i've tried locking, unlocking, trying to open from the inside and outside and door just won't open. awaiting service appointment and diagnosis.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 20v543000 (service brakes, hydraulic) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. the local dealer was contacted. the contact stated that the dealer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. the manufacturer was made aware of the issue. the contact had not experienced a failure. parts distribution disconnect.

In the past six months, three of the four window regulators on my 2016 hyundai tucson stopped working. recently, one of my windows fell out while driving on the highway. looks like this is a manufacturing defect as hundreds of complaints have been reported on the internet. the vehicle needs to be recalled as this seems to be a common problem in most 2016 tucsons and poses significant risks while driving, especially on highways at high speeds. i’ve included some exact complaints for your reference here: https://www.vehiclehistory.com/questions/why-is-my-hyundai-tucson-2016-window-not-working-353123 i hope this problem gets resolved soon. thank you.

Window regulator has broke in all 4 windows

The issue that is prominently in other hyundai cars is the rear back doors will not open to be released. the locks will unlock and lock and it has no correlation with key battery and power to the door; the issue is the latching mechanism itself. this is a hazard to those who need to get out of vehicle in serious and emergency situations and having a door failed on a latching mechanism is not okay. this is also an issue to parents or guardians who travel with kids and use the child safety lock, and there is not a proper solution to this issue without tearing the door apart and having that be paid out of pocket of their own expense because a door latching mechanism has failed them. the responsible owner of this situation needs to be addressed and resolved by hyundai, itself.

When doors are unlocked, driver door outside handle will not open the door. it can be opened from the inside. no safety concern currently. problem was reproducible by dealer technician and he stated he has a similar issue and showed me to hit below the handle with my fist. this is not a fix! when we took our tucson for a warranty issue regarding the engine, we notified the technician of the problem and they failed to address the issue. this issue happened out of number-to-bumper warranty. i have read many forum articles by many owners that hyundai will charge between &100 and $200 to diagnose the problem before fixing them charge for the component and labor to fix the issue. no warnings have appeared regarding the problem.

2016 hyundai tucson was stolen on 3/23/2023 in denver, co. we were just at the dealership on 3/15/2023 in edmond, ok and we were not notified of the issue of the vehicle being susceptible to being easily stolen due to the negligence of hyundai. we were not offered a computer update or steering wheel lock. the dealership was negligent in not informing us of the issue with the engine immobilizer. now we’re dealing with the aftermath of a stolen vehicle that was recovered damaged due the the negligence of hyundai. they should have to cover expenses associated with their negligence. they knew about the issue with the lack of engine immobilizer.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving approximately 45 mph, the vehicle almost stalled. the contact heard an abnormal popping sound. the contact stated that the vehicle began to lose motive power. the accelerator pedal was depressed but the vehicle failed to respond. the contact then smelled an abnormal burning odor. the contact stated that when she attempted to depress the brake pedal, the pedal became very stiff. the contact stated that the check engine and battery warning lights were illuminated. the contact was able to pull off the roadway and the vehicle stalled. the contact had difficulty shifting the vehicle into park(p) and was unable to restart the vehicle. the contact had the vehicle towed to an independent mechanic. the vehicle was diagnosed, and it was determined that the engine needed to be replaced. the vehicle had not been repaired. the manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. the contact researched online and related the failure to nhtsa campaign number: 17v226000 (engine and engine cooling). the failure mileage was unknown.

In the last 6 months my driver side window, front passenger side window and back left side window have failed. to date it has cost over $1300, not including the newly defective rear passenger window. the dealer has no explanation, they act as if they have never seen this before. the explanation appears to be the plastic mechanism that turns the window up and down has disintegrated inside the door panel. very faulty workmanship.

The back passenger door will not open regardless of the lock/unlock function. it is the main door that my children use to get in/out of the car for school, etc. i reported this to hyundai and they just said they think it is a latch defect. no attempt to repair.

The window on the driver's side stopped working and was stuck down. i had to have a large piece of the door replaced because of the way that hyundai manufactures the part which caused it to be a very costly repair as well. less than 6 months later, the back window on the driver's side has the exact same problem.

Component: window regulators fail, leaving window in down position and unable to be closed. safety issue: weather and the elements can enter the car, there is risk that children can fall out of the open window, probably others. has it been reproduced: my 2016 tuscon needed its 5th window regulator replacement. i was fortunate that the first 4 were under warranty. it is evident that this is an inherent defect in the hyundai tuscon window design. this statement is backed up by the many comments on the hyundai forum website: https://www.hyundai-forums.com/threads/window-regulator-2016-hyundai-tucson.671843/ at this point every window regulator has been replaced once, and in the case of the drivers window, it was replaced twice. there was no warning that this failure would appear. this component has failed on the following dates: 6/4/2019, 10/30/2019, 1/2/2021 (2 windows), 3/29/2023.

The passenger read doors lock up and become unoperable. so the doors cannot be opened from the outside or the inside. this creates a massive potentially tragic situation. if your children or a senior is in the back seat and a fire or an accident occurs they will not be able to leave the car from the rear doors. let me make this very clear. the doors jam up and will not open from the inside or outside no matter what the lock position is in. also, i see evidence online of this happening to a number of people. hyundai did not issue a recall, but the indicated that they would fix it under "extended" warranty but when i brought it in (the door was frozen shut) they said this was something else and proceeded to charge me about $500 for the repair; $250 for the part and the same for the labor. this is a common problem and because of the seriousness involving injury and potential death this should have been recalled. how frightening is it to be locked in your car after an accident or fire?

I have a 2016 hyundai tuscon limited turbo which i bought used in august of 2018. the same week i left the lot i returned multiple times complaining that the car was hesitating and seemed like the transmission was having problems. the car would hesitate to go from a stop, several times leaving me and my infant (at the time) in the middle of intersections crossing traffic and unable to move. it almost got us slammed multiple times. i explained this to them and they just kept telling me it was because of the turbo. i said no one in their right mind would manufacture a car that goes fast at the cost of safety. that was insane to me but they kept sending me home. i returned over and over and over again for the entire 1st year i had the car with no resolution. eventually, i also discovered issues if i had to brake hard, several times almost running into the back of people and on 08/08/2020 i actually did slam into the back of someone. i got to eat the cost of the insurance claim - only later to find out that there was a recall on the abs system which i believe caused the accident. in 2020 when the transmission died, they replaced it under warranty. it took 49 days to replace, meanwhile i have an infant and riding a bus and riding my bike everywhere because the dealer did not help me with a rental or loaner. then a year later in the middle of 2021 the engine died which they replaced under warranty, this time providing me with a rental for only a short time of the month long situation. also racked up tow and tow storage bills exceeding $500 because it broke down on a major road in the middle of the night. now, on 03/11/2023 i heard a sound coming from the engine which sounded like a cat screaming, coupled with severe hesitation when trying to accelerate. took it to the dealer and they refuse to fix it, said the warranty company declined it. called hyundai corporate and they said the same thing. called warranty company and they said no one ever submitted a claim!!!!!

Airbag light on dealer says it needs replaced.

Both rear doors are now non-working as the remote and the manual lock will not open the doors. the driver's side door broke first about two months ago and just this week the other rear door is not unlocking just as the other door did. fortunately, this did not happen when i had my one and two year old grandsons in my car. my car is unfortunately out of warranty so now i have to pay big bucks for the dealership to repair this issue. as i've researched in the hyundai tuscon forums this fix by the dealership is often temporary and needs to be repaired multiple times as they continue to replace the part necessary with the same part that breaks down. i've got less than 70,000 miles on my vehicle. if this is not a safety issue, i'm not sure what is.

Upon acceleration onto highway or up a hill the car at times will rev and not shift or move /increase speed. getting onto the highway i have had to pull into the shoulder until vehicle snaps out of it and decides to shift. extremely dangerous & happening more often than not now.

Back in december, 2022 my car was doing a shocking change of speed all of a sudden, for example i would be driving and accelerating, but the car would not speed above 40mph, and while i was still pressing on the accelerator, it would do like a shocking movement and accelerate all of sudden. at that time, the car had just stopped accelerating above 20mph which almost got me into an accident on the highway. i took the car to the hyundai and they said that the engine was fine and had passed all tests, that only the sensor needed to be changed. i paid for the repair, but since i got my car back this is still happening, and i almost got into an accident again in the highway. i was just entering into the highway and when i pressed the gas pedal to change lane the car just blocked it did am abrupt movement trying to change speed, it didnt increase the speed, the car behind me was coming fast and beeping because it seemed like my car was coming to a full stop instead of speeding, but all of a sudden the car again did an abrupt change of speed and started increasing up to 60mph, but in order for this to happen, i had to release and press again. it is not the first time, i have tried contacting the service center to inform them that the car is acting the same way, the only difference is that now it doesn't stay at 20mph, this time it does speed after a few tries, but very abruptly

The car is making a sound when i step on the brakes. the brakes were just done a couple of months ago. the engine is making a funny sound. the engine light came on but then went off. the air conditioner stop working and heat is only coming out of it.

Unable to move the car while in traffic. the car slows down in traffic creating the possibility of accidents/crashes. the car will not go forward and only moves in reverse.

I own two hyundai tucsons. i am very concerned about the rise of thefts and the economic damages that this vehicle has caused our nation. close to home. i have seen my auto insurance increase with each renewal (every 6 months) by $200. so i am paying $400 more a year for the last 2 years which is an $800 increase because i own a hyundai tucson and the insure is taking additional precautions due to the safety and economic risk that me owning a hyundai tucson has. i am urging the nhtsa to hold hyundai accountable. it's not just the fast. it's not just deaths. it's not just damage of property and the progress of crimes of stealing a hyundai. it's all the other innocent people who are paying hundreds if not thousands of dollars more annually because a manufacturer put out a poor product. in 2023 we have now gone through a pandemic. we've gone through inflation and other numerous occurrences such as gas, eggs and milk which have dramatically increased in price because of other outside factors. having another issue affect innocent families at no fault of their own creates a devastating result for those just trying to keep their head above water and now making a decision of food or other necessities so that they can pay inflated insurance because a company has put out a poor product that has resulted in crime and harm coming to people. hyundai has had months to issue a recall and to do the right thing. it's clear some intervention is necessary at this point to protect the american consumer.

Engine is burning oil, car dealership has confirmed the engine is in fact burning oil and that i do need a new engine. oil consumption test has been completed, and i was told to check my oil daily and to add oil. hyundai will not approve an engine replacement. there are no lights or warnings at all.

I have been having issue with the car stalling or turning off when im waiting for the light to turn green

Noticed excessive oil consumption (no visible leaks) ~ 1 qt (or more) per 1000 miles. right before the oil change at 83656 mi (~4000 mi after the last oil change, i decided to check the oil level and the dipstick was completely dry, with no low oil lights no check engine lights, no leaks, nothing. when i went to the dealership for the oil change and mention that - the engineer said that "1 quart of oil consumption per 1,000 is a norm for hyundai". btw the hyundai tucson 2016 manual states that the oil change interval is 5000 mi, so if the 1qt/ 1000mi is normal for hyundai so i have to drive to the oil change on a dry engine! when i requested to perform a consumption test they can only order a consumption test if hyundai grants it. they made a claim for me, but there’s no guarantee that they will even respond.

I have several doors that do not open when unlocked. the seems to be a common issue for this vehicle based on google searches. the drivers door has to be unlocked multiple times before the door will open. the passenger front door will not open at all from the outside. the back drivers door does not open from inside or outside. it seems all of the door are slowly failing causing the potential to become trapped inside the vehicle or being prevented from getting to someone inside if needed.

Air bag light is on. hyundai dealer diagnosed problem as a faulty clock spring.

The vehicle will not accelerate properly. several times, i have been on the interstate, and the vehicle would barely increase in speed. several instances have let to life threatening situations. numerous times, i have gone to get on the interstate, and the vehicle would slow to nearly a stop, and even when having no other choice but to floor the gas pedal, it still would not accelerate. i've been forced to go off the road, in the middle of the interstate, so many times i've lost track. it's dangerous, and needs to be addressed immediately. i'm considering a lawsuit.

The back, driver's side, door will not open from the inside or outside. the issue has been present since the very first week i purchased the car. if this issue happens to all the doors, i could be trapped inside the vehicle, and unable to get out. it absolutely needs to be recalled and replaced by hyundai.

-driver side and passenger side back doors do not open from the inside or outside. they just stopped opening one day, months apart. nothing hit them or could have caused a jam. it is available for inspection upon request. -the doors don’t open, and i could not get my dog or child from out of the backseat. -this is a recurring problem based on what i have read online. the issue has been confirmed by a mechanic. -the doors were inspected by caliber collision and i got a quote from them. -there were no lights or warnings to inform me this was going to happen and still none now that it has happened. -

I've reported last year that i have an oil consumption problem.the car is not leaking to the ground.it's leaking within the car.i have replaced 2 catalyc converters in the past 2 years! the dealership ignores my requests and seems real shady.they rather i pay every year.i already feel it not working correctly,its only been since october 2022,since i replaced the converter.i have contacted the corporation at hyundai and nothing.they were a waste of time.i contacted the bar and they were not much help either.i am spending constantly on this car with the same issue.what a lemon.hyundai corporation has to be held accountable for the mistakes.thank you.

While running errands in her 2016 hyundai tucson my wife rolled down her front driver and passenger side windows. when she encountered rain she attempted to roll both windows up, but the passenger side window would not roll up, causing a dangerous distraction where heavy rain was entering the vehicle while she was driving. our mechanic inspected this part and said that the gears controlling the window were made of plastic which had been shredded over time and that the motor itself showed signs of corrosion. the vehicle is only 7 years old and has been well maintained, so i can't understand why this part failed so easily. our mechanic informed us that this is a very common issue with hyundai vehicles and that parts would be hard to come by because of high demand. this issue is available for inspection upon request and has been inspected by a licensed mechanic. there were no dash warnings associated with this issue.

Driver's side door will not open from outside even when vehicle is unlocked. it will not open with the key in the door either. i had no warning that this was going to occur, i left work at 9pm and my door would not open. thankfully, my other 3 doors are still in working order but what happens if those fail as well? my car has 104k miles but i have only had it for 5 years and this is a part that should not fail in that time span. i have not yet taken the car to the dealer for this issue as i know the car is out of warranty and i will have to cover the cost of repair, but i believe it should be a recall with the amount of people who have posted online about having the same issue on their hyundai tucsons.

All windows broke even though they hardly rolled down. 3 out of 4 broke within a year and the spark plugs keep burning out even though been changed and mechanic can't figure out why.

I have a 2016 hyundai tuscon that is consuming a lot of oil. my oil is changed when it is supposed to on a regular basis, as is all other car maintenance. all of a sudden, my car needs an additional 2-3quarts of oil in between oil changes. someone told me there are a lot of hyundai vehicles that are having oil consumption issues. i would like to know more before i go sink the $2000 the dealership is going to charge me to find and fix the issue, please.

The vehicle is burning oil quickly. i have always gotten the oil changed on time. i just reached 89,000 miles and the vehicle has begun shaking when i accelerate and the check engine light has been flashing. i checked the oil and it is at the half way line between full and low - even though i just had it changed 3 weeks and less than 1,000 miles ago. i took it to the dealership, they said they do not recognize a problem with oil consumption. i told them my check engine light was flashing and it felt like it was going to stall when accelerating. the dealership said they used to do diagnostic testing, but don't anymore. they said they would look into, but i would have to pay $135 for the diagnostic testing.

In the last 2 years, 3 of our 4 doors locks have failed to open the door from inside and outside. the dealer has made me bring it in to prove its broken. this is a saftey issue, now my driver's door is not working from outside and they want me to bring it it before ordering and waiting on parts. i am 70 years old and cannot climb over seats to get out. someone is going to get trapped, and i hope it's not me. this should be a recall as they know they are failing but are waiting till it does to fix it. any help in this would be appreciated. thank you for your help.

We had the driver side back door fixed by dealer because it would not open. it would lock and unlock but not open from the outside or inside of car. now the passenger back door is doing the same thing. i researched on line and there are a lot of same complaints. this is a very serious issue in case of an accident and the people in the back could not exit the vehicle. i have contacted hyundai but no response. with a safety issue across a lot of same cars, this should be recalled and not charge the customer $1,000 to fix it.

I have a 2016 hyundai tucson and under warrantee they replaced the transmission. but it has never been right. hyundai has had a multitude of problems with this transmission and it should have been recalled, but was not! now it has problems again and i've asked hyundai corporate for help but all they say is its up to the goodwill (translation generosity) of the hyundai dealer in charlotte. so i am screwed. i need help contacting the government agency that can do something to help me.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that when she was near her vehicle, she noticed that the driver's side window was down. the contact stated that she could not roll the window up. the contact stated that over the next month, the other three windows were lowered and could not be rolled up. additionally, the contact stated that the headlights had failed, and she had them replaced. the contact had taken the vehicle to a local dealer where it was diagnosed and determined that the windows mechanism needed to be replaced. the vehicle had been repaired. the manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 53,000.

Rear passenger door would not open after door is locked from inside the vehicle or outside the vehicle. was stuck in the vehicle. had to crawl out via other side door. due to my size this would be a great hazard in an emergency exit situation. have not take it to the dealer police or insurance but internet search leads to a faulty actuator. no warnings.

Passenger doors do not physically open when unlocked from outside and inside. known stretched cable problems, with hundreds of complaints when doing a google search. elderly parents cannot yank hard enough to get them open by brute force. god forbid if there was an accident, you would not be able to open to door from inside to get out and others from outside would not be able to open either to assist. rolling death trap. hyundai korea knows about the door cable problem and fixes it for free. usa wants you to pay $400 per door to fix. shame on you hyundai usa!!!

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle lost motive power. the contact turned off and restarted the vehicle and the check engine warning light illuminated. the vehicle was towed to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the transmission needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the contact related the failure to nhtsa campaign number: 16v628000 (power train, electrical system) however, the vin was not included in the recall. the failure mileage was approximately 51,800.

While driving the car, when you press down on the accelerator to pick up speed, the car actually slows down. eventually it will run normally at speed, however it creates a significant risk when pulling into traffic.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the vehicle was taken to the dealer due to excessive oil leaking. the contact stated that the vehicle was diagnosed with an engine failure and the contact was informed that the engine needed to be rebuilt. the vehicle was repaired under warranty however, the failure recurred. the vehicle was not diagnosed after the recent failure. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure, and a case was filed. the failure mileage was approximately 99,000.

About a year ago, the driver's side door stopped opening. since the vehicle was out of warrantee, i had it repaired but do not have the invoice any longer. i didn't expect it to happen to another door. a couple of months ago, the rear passenger door stopped opening. i have had it fixed. there was no warning, the doors just stopped opening, trapping whoever was inside at the time. of course another door could be used, but that's assuming it didn't just stop working at the same time.

My car has been consuming oil at a higher than normal rate. the engine light came on and they told me it was a pcv valve. my oil smells. i put in 2-4 quarts in-between a 3,000 mile oil change. even though the recommended oil change for my engine is 4500 miles. so with a standard 5 quart oil change plus 3-5 more quarts, my car is consuming 7-10 quarts every 3,000 miles. this is not normal. i have started the oil consumption test with hyundai in nw arkansas at crain hyundai and was told my powertrain warranty is now up to 120,000 mile warranty. i did not know this hyindai corp. never informed me. also, i have paid out of pocket for every new oil change i've needed for the last 20,000 miles and oil in-between. yesterday, while i saw the dipstick was under the l the tech told me it was within normal range. how is this possible? my car has gone into limp mode a few times because of the oil problem.

The engine is consuming more than 1 quart of oil every 1000 miles. this began around 100000 miles at 1 quart per thousand miles and has since progressed to 1 quart every 500--800 miles. i found this problem when my oil pressure light came on as i was going around a curve. i checked my oil level and it was not visible on the stick. my engine was 3 quarts low 3000 miles since the last oil change. this has been going on since april of 2021. my steering column makes a significant rattling noise and jiggles up and down when going over bumps. this has been going on since about the 80000 mile mark which was around april 2020. my local shop confirmed there was something likely worn out and needing replacement, perhaps the entire steering column.

Window and motor regulators both went out in 1-2 weeks apart may 2023

I have 3 issues. #1. the transmission fails to shift only at certain times resulting in high rpm's on level road. #2. engine has knocking noise at idle after having the engine knock sensor installed. #3 right, rear passenger door will not open from inside, or outside in spite of inside latch being manually opened or attempting to open with key fob activation.

The regulator and motors have failed in all four windows. two have been replaced with "panel assembly" parts - on 03/24/2022 the parts cost $383.09 and on 10/07/2022 the same [xxx] cost $470.16. i have not yet replaced the back two windows which are held in place by tape. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

The vehicle had been well maintained. have receipts for most all services. at around 90,000 miles, the car started "burning oil" and needed frequent top offs. at 108,000 miles, i have car serviced and started a road trip. in less than 40 miles, it started to shudder and miss fire on the interstate. causing loss of power and control. fortunately, i was able to pull over safely off interstate 40. i did not drive further and had car towed back to town. at dealership, i was told "engine failure" due to 2nd cylinder loss of compression, and new engine is only option. i was denied any service under warranty due to being over 100,000 miles. the dealership will not work with me on variance or goodwill gesture. i have seen in online forums that this is happening to other owners. the vehicle was well maintained and never gave any hint of the pending failure. i am filing this as formal complaint and safety hazard with this vehicle.

My engine has 98,000 miles and is burning two quarts of oil every 1000 miles. i have no visible oil leaks.

My car was having issues with the engine making a rattling sound and having difficulty accelerating. about a week after the symptoms came up, my car died on the side of the road. i am so lucky i was in a neighborhood and not on the freeway. no lights came on at all until 10-20 seconds before it died. i was able to get my car to the dealership and was told i'd need a new engine. although i bought it used, i've only had this car for four months. i'm hoping hyundai places the 2016 tucson under recall as many others seems to have similar issues.

Was driving on the highway and my car wouldn't go above 45mph, then check engine light and oil pressure lights came on. pulled over on the shoulder and checked the oil and it was low oil by about 2 quarts. i checked the oil about 3 weeks prior and had no issues with oil loss and had no lights ever come on the dash prior. had to get towed home because the car was sputtering and would accelerate. the car is inoperable now and needs engine repair.

Similar to other owners my car has been burning oil at a higher-than-normal rate. because of this, there has been a carbon build-up causing my engine to start misfiring and stop working while driving on the interstate.

Door latch suddenly stopped working, making it impossible to open the door from either inside or outside the vehicle. had this occurred in an emergency situation passengers could have been trapped inside. hyundai is aware of this defect and has issued a technical service bulletin and purportedly extended the warranty but there is a shortage of parts to make repairs and so they cannot effectively honor that warranty or make needed repairs. nhtsa should require a recall on this problem to inform owners of this potential hazard and force hyundai to put more resources into correcting the defective latches and possibly avoid unnecessary loss of life.

Complete engine failure under 100k miles. electrical issues with toggle switches

I was driving down the highway and i saw my usb cord smoking, i immediately threw it out the window to avoid a fire and pulled over on the highway. my heart was racing and then i called my mom. she thought it was the ac filter that needed to be changed. a few months later in october, the engine failed. a dealership fixed the engine, but it's still consuming a lot oil. i called hyundai about the engine issues but i forgot about the smoke i saw. they closed the case on the engine, because they claimed i had no warranty. i have no warranty, because fairfax hyundai told me they no longer accept car shield. hyundai closed my case last month and reopened it on 6/30, because of the smoke. i originally bought the car from waldorf honda, in maryland. dozens of issues have been reported with this vehicle. on 6/30 i realized that the two back doors also stopped opening from the inside and outside.

Rear driver door does not open from the outside or inside. the doors are unlocked but will not open at all.

Rear passenger door will not open from inside or outside

Excessive oil consumption. it has been confirmed by valvoline instant oil change center. after an oil change, round 600 miles the oil is to be checked and topped off completely because the reservoir is bone dry. can not make it a complete 3,000 miles until the next oil change. the oil has to be topped off at least 2-3 times until the next oil change. there are no warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms to notify of the problem. it has been inspected by hyundai dealership, whom at someone point replaced the turbo in the limited 1.6l. also, the windshield wiper reservoir decided to stop working. i have to wait until it rains or go through a car wash to clean my windshield. all hoses have been checked and there are no leaks or disconnection of the hose. the windshield wiper fluid will not come out and remains completely full.

I purchased a 2016 hyundai tuscon new in april 2017. from the beginning i felt there were issues with this vehicle but was also told that everything was fine. in 2019 the car stopped getting power and i was unable to go over 60mph on the highway. hyundai said it had run out of oil but i had always gotten my oil changes from hyundai directly. also- no alert that my oil was low every came on. they replaced the engine or parts of it but i was still required to pay about $3,000 at the time. in jan. of this year i realized that the car was not running as it should. hyundai in milford, ct had me pay for the oil change and also pay for the oil consumption test. on feb. 20th i was approved for a new engine. i have been given multiple dates of when i my car would be repaired with the last date being may 17, 2023. i have not heard anything from hyundai. i submitted a complaint with hyundai corporate (21515374) and they have done nothing except tell me that they are still waiting for an answer as well. i am afraid to drive my vehicle long distances and do not know what kind of service i should get while waiting for a new engine. i am now carrying oil around in my vehicle but think that this is horrible wrong. i am still paying almost $600 a month for a vehicle that i am afraid to drive and i have not received any answers from anyone regarding when my repairs will be done or even getting a rental while i wait. after reading hundreds of other complaints this seems to be an issue with hyundai and everyone says the same thing about the oil warning light not coming on at all. i purchased my vehicle from hyundai in milford, ct.

Both of my back doors will not open from the inside or out. thanks to youtube i watched videos on how to open doors from the inside i had to pull latch and then stick screwdriver in there to lift cable up up door would open. this is very dangerous for doors to not open up, taking time to use a screwdriver to open them up is ridiculous, according to youtube the cable was made too short. i called the manufacturer and they gave me a price of 700-1200.00 to fix. i really think this should be a recall. if someone in back needs to get out in emergency situation then they are stuck.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the vehicle was serviced under warranty and the knock sensor detection system (ksds) was replaced; however, after the repair, while driving 62 mph, the check engine warning light illuminated, and the vehicle went into limp mode. the contact stated that he drove the vehicle back to the dealer and was informed by the mechanic that there would be a cost for the repair. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 118,000.

Car is using more than one quart of oil per 1,000 miles. car is not leaking oil and oil changes are done at the dealership every 3500 miles. having to check oil levels constantly and keep quarts of oil in car to fill in case it is low. hyundai st augustine dealership says there is not a problem.

Front passenger side window would not go up on 7/05/23. i went to dealership to get an oil change and while service advisor was pulling car out he put passenger side window down and it would not roll up. i had this window down 2 hours prior and had no issues with it going up. hyundai of orange park said motor and window regulator assembly stripped due to assembly being cheap plastic. cost to replace and get window back up is $1400.00. had to have dealership put up window and shore it up due to it being cost prohibitive to repair. safety concern because window will not go down in case of emergency if door mechanism fails and door will not open. on 1/24/23, hyundai st augustine replaced drive side window regulator assembly at the cost of 737.27 due to window not being able to go down. a separate complaint was filed for this occurence.

Front driver side window regulator assembly broke in which window would not go down. repaired on 1/24/23 at hyundai of st augustine for $737.27. this is a safety risk due to not being able to put window down in case of emergency and door would not open.

Engine is consuming oil and we are waiting for it to totally fail. we have a long list of things. these are notes from the end of the process when we gave up. i responded after the fourth consumption test on 11/28/2022 asking for them to re-open my case and have not heard from them so i called on 12/9/2022 to speak to my case manager. we started this journey with 118,000 miles and now we have close to 164,000. went from 1qt every 1000 miles to 2qt’s every 1000 miles. had to get another case manager to leave a message for my case manager to call me back. i don’t even know if they re opened my case. hyundai has refused to admit the have a large issue with their gdi motors. they should not be consuming oil as much as they are. only theta motors are being covered in non turbo cars. this is my second vehicle currently owned with a gamma turbo motor. this one is waiting to fail and the other one has failed.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that all four automatic windows failed to operate as needed. the front driver’s side window started failing and an appointment was scheduled with the dealer to repair the window. while testing the windows in the dealer parking lot after the repair, the front passenger’s side window fractured, and the dealer agreed to cover the cost of the repair free of charge. over time, the rear windows started to lower independently, and the vehicle was repaired by an independent mechanic. in addition, the contact stated that the vehicle intermittently failed to accelerate while depressing the accelerator pedal. there was no warning light illuminated. the contact stated that the vehicle lunge forward while accelerating. the manufacturer was also notified of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 20,000.

The engine of my car is consuming several quarts of oil between oil changes. i have read that this is a common problem with some models of hyundia vehicles. i have also read that this defect has led to engine failures and possibly fires.

There are four safety concerns i have with the 2016 hyundai tuscon: 1.) the check oil light failed to illuminate indicating the need for more oil. 2.) the excessive oil consumption may have caused my catalytic converter to misfire and melt. 3.) the check engine light failed to illuminate when my catalytic converter misfired and melted. 4.) the knock sensor (if it is bad), which is installed on my vehicle, could fail and not warn me about any engine problems. on 7/3/23, my vehicle was having a difficult time accelerating up a mountain. my brother and i also heard a rattling noise, so my brother drove to a safe place. i had my vehicle towed to a local auto service garage, where i was told the catalytic converter melted due to misfiring and that i needed to replace it. on 7/5/23, i had my vehicle towed to the closest hyundai dealership, where they confirmed that the vehicle's catalytic converter was melted due to misfiring. after researching the causes catalytic converters misfiring, i read several complaints about the said vehicle's oil consumption and poor acceleration. i suspect there might be a connection to the catalytic converter misfiring and melting. incidentally, i have had two other incidents where my vehicle lacked acceleration and started shaking. one occurred on 12/28/22, while i was entering an intersection. the other happened on 4/1/23, while i was attempting to pass another vehicle. all three incidents could've ended tragically. the check engine light did illuminate during two of the incidents, but not the incident that occurred on 7/3/23. additionally, the catalytic converter was previously tested on 12/31/22 and it didn't have any bad codes. sparkplugs were also replaced on 12/31/22, and a 3-step fuel system cleaning was done on 6/12/23. the check oil light only illuminated once since i have owned the vehicle, but failed to illuminate when my oil was getting low in between oil changes. my suv is still in service waiting for a catalytic converter.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the passenger’s side rear door was stuck closed and was unable to be opened from inside or outside the vehicle. the contact stated that the door had been stuck closed for a month. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 30,000.

Entering on the 65 mph interstate. tucson would not accelerate past 60 mph. when it reached 60 mph it rapidly lost power and speed. air conditioner was on also. when accelerating while at a stop light or making a turn vehicle hesitates to accelerate. all occurrences of this happening a/c was on.

Car shakes when when starting or stopping

Back doors completely stop working. not able to open the door from the inside or out

Excessive oil consumption nm, replaced catalytic converter twice. losing power again. 122450 miles. trans mission slipping, not shifting into higher gear. gas mpg down to 19mpg. unsafe on highway, loses speed and revs too high

The back passenger door will not open from the inside or the outside. any back seat passenger safety is at risk because they will be unable to exit the car incase of an emergency.

Driving vehicle home from work a 7 mile commute driver front rotor and passenger rear rotors caught fire. called fire department to ensure preventive measure of entire car catching fire. it appears both corners have fused pads to rotors creating high friction. no check engine lights or abs light notifications on dash to warn of issue. brakes and rotors replaced approximately 2 years ago and 25k miles with zero issues. brake master reservoir is only low about 1 ounce of fluid with no signs of fluid leak on floorboard or firewall of vehicle. abs module appears to have no fluid residue or leaks either. have not checked fuses as of yet for failure.

The passenger doors have an issue where the door cannot be opened from the inside (or outside). this seems to be a common problem with this car since it can be found very easily on the internet. i was traveling with visitors from overseas and sometimes i was unable to open the door from the outside for them. i was lucky that only one door was affected. i think this matter should be considered a very serious defect as persons needing to exit the vehicle in an emergency would be trapped. please consider a recall for this issue since there are many hyundai's with this problem. thank you for your consideration. john sommo, jr.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the vehicle failed to reverse. after several attempts, the vehicle worked as designed. while approaching a stop, the vehicle was jerking. the check engine warning light was illuminated. the vehicle was taken to the local dealer, who was unable to duplicate the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not contacted. the failure mileage was approximately 94,000.

1.6 turbo engine failure while on freeway. towed to mechanic, then informed needs new engine. this vehicle seized on the freeway

The right rear passenger door would not open from the inside or outside. the child safety lock was not engaged. if there had been an accident, fire or any other incident requiring a quick exit, exit through that door for my 96 year old mother, or any other passenger, would not be possible. i have heard of numerous complaints about this problem. i have not had an inspection of this problem by an outside source. there are no warning lights associated with this problem.

Engine began ticking and knocking and needs complete replacement confirmed by independent service center. no warning lights came on, regular maintenance has been performed, including oil changes at dealership.

When coming from a stop and trying to accelerate the transmission slips and makes a strange noise. after a few seconds of releasing the gas pedal, it will drive again normally. it is intermittent and happens from either a full stop to first or first to second (while stuck in traffic). my vehicle should be included in the dual clutch transmission recall that is available for other vehicles.

Both my front window (driver and passenger side) regulator and motor failed and needed to be replaced within the past 6 months. with both windows, i lowered and then they wouldn't close. two separate occasions. first was december 2022, and second was july 2023. this is an expensive repair and for a vehicle with only 50,000 miles, i find this unacceptable. i have read multiple complaints for this same issue. hyundai needs to make this right and reimburse for repair(s). thank you, barbara miller

I recently purchased a 2016 hyundai tucson, limited 1.6t. after a few weeks of driving i noticed it would shake when at a stoplight. it also loses acceleration and 'skips' when making turns, going over speed bumps or just taking off from a complete stop. there have also been times that i press the accelerator pedal and the car doesn't move. after researching i discovered this is a known issue and hyundai issued a technical service bulletin (number 21-at-014h) in august 2021 instead of a recall. my vehicle had less than 40k miles on it when i purchased it (from a non-hyundai used dealership) i took my car to a hyundai service center, when i explained the problems to a technician, he suspected he knew exactly what the problem was. i chose to have them perform a "judder" test to confirm and the tech was right, it did in fact fail the judder test. in order to fix this issue, i have to have the entire clutch assembly replaced for approximately $2500. this issue is a huge safety risk and i believe hyundai should issue a recall and fix this issue at no charge to the vehicle owner. i have read hundreds of similar complaints, they know there is a problem, they know how to fix the problem, the financial burden should not fall on the consumer.

3 of the doors on this vehicle are hard to open from the outside. the cable that runs from the outside door handle to the door latch mechanism is stretched. you must yank hard on the outside door handle several times before the door latch will release opening the door. replacing the inner door cable system for the door latch corrects this problem. this is a very well known problem on the internet with many youtube video's showing how to replace this cable system. if this vehicle is involved in a crash it may become difficult to get the occupants out in a timely manner.

Engine consistently burns oil over federal regulations. this increased oil consumption has led to the catalytic converter to fail on the vehicle.

The passenger rear door won't open and hasn't done so an unknown period of time. 1. in july, 2023 i brought it to shaker hyundai in watertown, ct when there was a recall to update the electrical system in this vehicle. i requested they try to fix the door after the recall was complete. when i left the dealership, the door opened. i stopped approximately five miles down the road on the way back home; i was unable to open it then and it hasn't opened since. the car hasn't been inspected by the police or the insurance company, but it has been inspected by the watertown, ct dealership. yes, it's available for inspection. no lights. no messages, other than oil change light. others have registered this issue here, and i want to add my voice to theirs. clearly your organization knows how very dangerous it is for passengers to lack egress from the car. if this happens randomly, is it possible the remaining three of my doors will latch permanently, and what then? please do something! in the past, i owned a different car whose axle broke at an odd angle because of a defective part; the mandatory recall didn't take place for an additional two years. please don't make me and others wait. finally, i want my the dealership from whom i purchased to take a stab at fixing it properly and permanently. unfortunately, danbury won't look at it since watertown tried/failed. help!

Heading to dallas from houston. i got halfway to dallas and my car started making this crazy knocking noise. sound like a go-kart. well we never made it to dallas. check engine light didn’t come on until hours later. a knocking noise from the engine that increases in frequency as the engine rpm increases. reduced power and/or hesitation and vibration. i realized my 2016 hydaui did not have an engine recall on it even though it was a well known issue. every year was recalled but my car. called dealership and received no response. my car has 111k miles and is paid off. i have known complaints at the dealership on my oil change that it was burning oil before 3k miles. they looked as me as if i was exaggerating. majority of the time the oil light never even came on.

The right driver side door does not open from the outside after the car has been locked then unlocked using the key fob. removing the key manually from the fob does not get the door to open. the only way to open the door from the outside is to leave the vehicle unlocked or to open it from the inside after going through another door.

The back left driver side door locked and can't be opened by any means. child lock not on.

Car window regulator failed. window could not be rolled up and occupants subjected to outside weather conditions.

I have been to multiple hyundai dealerships, and opened about 3 to 4 hyundai consumer cases; for well known engine problems. my vehicle has failed oil tests and combustion tests done by hyundai dealers. springfield hyundai/ genesis kept my vehicle for 5 months claiming they found issues with the engine that was consistent with the other vehicles recalled for obsessive oil consumption. after their findings, hyundai corporate decided not to do any repairs, after 5 months! they claim my vehicle is out of warranty and can not carry through the goodwill repair/replacement. hyundai corporate and i have proof of my engine complaints and failed oil tests before 100,000mi warranty expired (which is why hyundai submitted a goodwill repair request on my behalf took the car in the first place). my vehicles vin is not included in engine recall, nor the theft recall. my car has been driven away from the key fob multiple times through the years; indicating it can be stolen. my last communication with a hyundai dealership, the service manager informed me that engines that have already failed can be submitted. basically i and others that are trying to be proactive, will have to wait until the engine fails and possibly cause an accident, injuring or killing people!! due to this fear myself and others have to check and get more frequent oil changes and travel with oil in the trunk to keep the engine from locking up on the highway. this vehicle continues stalling, hesitating, losing power, and loud knock engine noise. i have been complaining of the bad dct system since 2017 (2nd complaint written to nhtsa). before my limited warranty was expired i've been denied by corporate even when the dealership found issues and admitted hyundai is screwing over thousands of people and i am just another one. i have every work order and oil change from day one, that indicates that i kept up with the maintenance of my vehicle. i believe hyundai is not including vin#s that should be included in recall

The window regulators of this vehicle break down and stop working consistently. the plastic wheel on the inside of the door panel warps and breaks after a few months of use/being replaced. the temperatures this summer have been close to or over 100 degrees on a daily basis. this is what makes this a safety issue. windows on the vehicle are stuck in a down position and cannot be rolled back up.

Both front windows have stopped working. from a google search on possible fixes, this is a common issue with 2016 hyundai tucsons. it’s also very expensive to fix and a great safety hazard.

The front passenger window failed to work. a week later drivers window failed to work. a week after repairing the two front windows the rear passenger side window failed to work. the failure of windows working is breaking of plastic regulators by faulty manufacturing parts. there should be a recall on these regulations. this is a safety issue!

The engine is consuming oil that may cause mechanical failure while driving on a busy road or highway. at the last oil change the technician informed me that there was hardly any oil left in the car. when i took the car to hyundai they confirmed that the engine was consuming oil. hyundai motors refuses to replace the engine. there are over 2 million recalls on the same type of engine that my car has but there isn’t a recall for my car. please help me hold the manufacturer responsible for this manufacturer defect.

I bought a used 2016 hyundai tucson locally. had the car 3 days, & both rear window actuators had to be replaced. had the car a week, oil pump/pan seal failed. then the rear seal fail. then the boot on the right cv joint failed. the aac started blowing hot on the passenger side, while cold on the driver side, but i don’t have dual controls for the temperature & it’s full. bluetooth randomly connects/disconnects. gas gauge is inaccurate says 40 miles left & then suddenly your light is on & it says you’ve 20. repeatedly replaced my brake light bulbs/front turn signal bulbs, several times within a few months of each other, often on the same side. having my phone plugged into the charging ports, the phone often overheats to the point of being too hot to touch. even placed out of the sun’s rays, & shaded. must pull front passenger door 2x externally before it will open. rr passenger door you can pull all day/push from inside /outside, doesn’t matter, won’t open.the car is equipped with a cvt, which allows you to shift manually if needed. then the transmission refused to shift automatically. no codes would show. today car died on me in the middle of the road, while i was turning, check engine is on, & car refuses to start. i was almost hit by cross traffic from both directions. a few people drove around me, before two very nice young men pushed my car out of the middle of the road onto the shoulder of a county road, on a holiday weekend. if not for a good samaritan, i’d have been walking 6 miles home in the dark. i’m almost 50, & a woman, & diabetic. the car has plenty of oil & coolant. tried putting the car in neutral, still won’t start. air filter is clean. battery is good. says it has gas; 40 miles til empty. car tries to turn over but won’t catch. tachometer will barely register to the line above zero, & even giving it gas makes no difference. have been told it is the timing & transmission. dealer won’t honor extended warranty. car has “just” passed hyundai warranty.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the driver’s and passenger’s side front windows and the passenger’s side rear door window regulators were inoperable. the contact stated that the regulators were making a whining sound but failed to roll up or roll down. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure but provided no assistance. the failure mileage was approximately 76,000.

Recently the transmission was replaced because the original one was defective. after a couple of weeks, i had turned on the clean air control and it started blowing cold air, so i turned the heater control higher, and the air was even colder. i don't know why this started happening all of a sudden. i'm the type of driver that rarely turns on the heater or air conditioning, i always use the recycle air button that pulls from off the engine and from outside.

The windows of the 2016 hyundai tuscan go down and then the regulator went bad at that exact moment causing the windows to not go up, while driving on the highway. it is available for inspection. on a highway, i was going the speed limit between 65-70 mph when i put one window down and attempted to put the window back up but i couldn’t. the pressure gets unbalanced and therefore impacts the drivers ears and passengers. i couldn’t even drive without the need to grab my ears because of the pressure. i had to pull over because the window wouldn’t go back up and the other windows wouldn’t go up after trying to balance the pressure in the car. i had to think quick and get on the side of the highway to figure out what happened. my ears wouldn’t stop popping and i couldn’t get back on the highway to get home. i had to drive slow off the following exit because the pain in my ears was so bad. this is a safety issue and isn’t the first time seeing this happen to people. the problem occurred out of nowhere, there were no warning signs and no indication this was going to happen. i confirmed my suspicions by going to a mechanic locally and sought out the issue being the regulator. this cannot be on consumers to repair. out of all the issues that have been announced about this issue country wide, i’m surprised this has not been brought up before. this happened on 9/18/23 at night going home with my children. they had to cover their ears because of the pressure. i did not call the police or insurance company as i had not been in an accident. that doesn’t not mean this should be taken lightly. had i not had thought of my kids in my car and thought quickly to pull over, we would have crashed.

My car has an engine oil leak that has been happening for over a year now since i bought it. i have to change my oil every 2,000 miles because of the leak, when ive been told this car should be changing its oil for every 7,000 miles. my passenger door no longer opens from the outside once my car is unlocked. i have to put my window down in order to get inside and this is a safety hazard.

Prior to these oil changes and tires was completed and march 2023 engine light on and whining noise took it to firestone twice they ran complete diagnosis twice and mechanic found no leak around the engine or leak in bottom and they recommended that i take it hyundai dealership which i did that same month again hyundai service ran diagnosis and recommended replacing some air valve to fix the problem but the part needed to be ordered; again it took over six weeks to get appointment for service at this hyundai service dealership do said repair and i ask if i can still drive the car with engine light on they said it was o.k as long as engine light not was blinking. the next day engine light came on again and it took over six weeks to get appointment with hyundai service dealership in my area and the car sat in the driveway for over month. now september 2023 same hyundai service ran engine diagnosis now need gasket and valve and they said engine failure because no oil in the engine and would cost $11k to replace. so please tell me in over month that car sat in driveway with no visible leaks in engine area and no leaks in the driveway, so where did the oil go and only answer i can deduce engine is defective.

On 10/24/22 i took my 2016 hyundai tucson into dealership springfield hyundai 754 baltimore pike springfield pa 19064 for a faulty drivers side window. at that time they advised the issue with the window was 'striped gear' and replaced 'drivers window regulator' under the extended warranty i purchased when i bought the vehicle. at that same time there was also an issue in the left front door latch and it was replaced under 'warranty.' on 03/03/23 the right rear door also had a latch issue and was replaced at that time. about a week ago, my front passenger side window stopped working. it will not go up or down. i returned to the same dealership on 07/27/2023. i was advised that 'found right front window regulator and motor gears are splined. both parts need to be replaced. charge is $890.98.' the car's extended warranty has expired and i would need to pay for this out of my pocket. my concern here is what i consider a trend with my vehicle experiencing window issues and it has not even reached 100k miles - in addition to the door latch issues. by the way, i also have a 2017 hyundai elantra which has also had to have almost every door latch replaced. after this second window issue popped up, i became curious and searched the internet for 2016 hyundai tucson window issues. and to no surprise, there are multiple consumers with complaints reporting the same exact issue as i am, with their windows as well. based on current trends and concerns with your car manufacturing, parts, missing basic anti-theft tools, cars being stolen, and a plethora of other issues i am confident this issue with my window is at fault of hyundai's poor production, manufacturing, and quality control. windows are an emergency exit. in the case of an accident, you need to be able to open the window to exit if it is the only viable option. you can become trapped inside your vehicle if the windows do not work. window needs to be operable to combat exhaust that may be trapped inside vehicle.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving with the cruise control set at 70 mph, he heard a knocking sound coming from underneath the hood of the vehicle and the oil pressure warning light illuminated. the contact stated that while on an incline, he shifted the vehicle into neutral and was able to navigate the vehicle to safety. the vehicle was towed to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the pistons and rod bearings had failed and needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed that the vehicle was covered under warranty. the failure mileage was approximately 97,000.

I was driving from california to cincinnati to relocate for an unpaid internship. i had a mechanic check my car before i left and was told there was a problem with the engine since it was consuming more oil than normal. i took it to a dealership in california who then said there was nothing wrong and roping off the oil for the drive was expected. about 150 miles before chicago, my engine started to sound like a helicopter. i had it towed to a dealership in the chicago suburbs that told me i had internal engine failure and it was a known problem so would submit it to the warranty company for me since i am the second owner and technically out of warranty. the warranty company made me jump through hoops to provide documentation for them of every oil change i’ve ever had on the car, even from before i owned it, only to deny the claim due to being out of warranty. the first owner warranty would have still covered this incident as the car is only 7 years old and was just under 70k miles at the time. at time of incident, nothing on the dashboard lit up, not even the check engine light.

2016 hyundai tucson eco/fwd front and rear left window regulators don't work. rear doors locks don't work from inside or outside. this is a safety concern because the doors locked when persons were inside and could not open the doors. the doors only open inserting a screwdriver through the door locks from inside. the windows of the left front and rear door don't open either. the car is 56,000 and hyundai dealer says car is not covered by extended warranty. there are a plethora of complaints about malfunctioning of hyundai tucson and other models door locks and window regulator systems throughout the media. since these represent huge safety concerns, hyundai should issue a recall on these parts.

Body: my vehicle has experienced a malfunction in the front passenger side door. this door does not open from the outside, regardless of it being unlocked. the failure occurs 99% of attempts to open said door. a repair was made by the dealer i purchased it from, yet the issue returned within a month. first incident: february 2022. electrical: my vehicle has also experienced malfunctions in all four windows. the initial malfunction occurred in july 2023, when the front driver side window would not go down. within a week of having the window regulator and motor replaced professionally, the window regulator failed again (would not go back up after being let down)-- with an additional failure in the front passenger side window regulator. the part was replaced for the second time by a different independent service provider. this time, the failure occurred when i inspected the service providers work. the part was reordered and replaced yet again. however; the service provider made me aware that the issue had occured again, shortly after they repaired it and began testing it. the window was blocked off to keep it from sliding down. the issue is now present in all four windows. each time it is repaired, the window regulator drum gears are stripped within 3-4 uses. - vehicle is available for inspection upon request. - failure/malfunction was inspected and confirmed by two different independent service providers. - there were no warning lights or signals aside from the initial failure leading to a failure in all four windows.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, the contact noticed that the window had become inoperable. no warning light was illuminated. the vehicle had not been diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure and advised that the vehicle be taken to a dealer for the repair. the failure mileage was approximately 68,000.

Three out of four window regulators failed in my vehicle over the span of 3 months. the windows could not go down nor stay up. this became a safety hazard as i was unable to retain cool air in my vehicle during the summer months and driving at higher speeds on the highway was difficult due to the outside air siphoning into the vehicle from a small window opening. it also would have prevented me from utilizing my two front windows during an emergency situation. the failure of three regulators was unusual as my vehicle has less than 50k miles, was bought brand new in 2016, and has never been involved in an accident. it appears the regulators are faulty/defective.

I already had a recall scheduled 4 days before this accident but 2 days before the engine failure i heard a ticking in the engine , didn’t think much of it because the engine was still running ( 93k miles on the car) so i was going to tell the dealer the problem when i took it for the recall fix appointment but on the way home my car instantly went from 70-30 in the middle of the highway i had the car towed to the hyundai dealer and they said rod had broke and said also something about the oil being dirty when i literally had the oil changed days before , but end result my 2nd owners warranty didn’t cover the vehicle even with rod failures being a recurring problem with my trim. they told me a new engine would be 13,500k while still owing 10k on the vechile has but me in a difficult situation

Vehicle began to consume large amounts of oil, needing oil added several times a week, every 200-300 miles. vehicle is now needing engine replacement due to oil consumption related issues.

Unknown fully engine knocking out of the blue and then died. car went limp while driving down the road. starts and is loudly knocking. throws codes p0011 and p0326 cannot drive vehicle. i have not notified hyundai yet. there were no warning lights. car ran perfectly fine. no issues. then the engine just died.

None of my windows will go down. vehicle has less than 25,000 miles.

The engine has continuously thrown itself into limp mode, unable to exceed 2,000 rpms and 60mph. it has been in and out of the dealership for the past 6 months as they have zero idea of what’s going on. this all started a month after some software updates were done. car had zero mechanical issues prior. car has no audible knocking or engine failure symptoms. i’ve spent atleast $2,000 out of pocket to attempt to get the car fixed with no luck. when i get the car back everytime, it goes into limp mode at interstate speeds which is extremely dangerous.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving 45 mph, the vehicle lost motive power. the contact stated that the vehicle inadvertently decelerated with the accelerator pedal depressed. no warning light was illuminated. the contact was able to pull to the side of the road. the vehicle was towed to the residence. the vehicle had not been diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure and determined that the vehicle was not under warranty. the failure mileage was approximately 64,000.

51k miles and engine went out on the highway. no lights or warnings until afterwards. we were able to safely pull over onto the shoulder and had the vehicle towed to the dealer for servicing.

1. my car will randomly not accelerate when the gas is being pressed. this has almost got me killed when making a left hand turn on more than 1 occasion now. the car also struggles with random shifting and power issues while going up steep hills at high speeds. 2. the front passenger side door and the rear drivers side passenger door just randomly stopped working with a week of each other. the rear wont open from the inside or outside. the front passenger side opens if you shake the handle back and forth multiple times (essentially trying to open it multiple times till it opens)

Back driver side door does not open at all and the passenger door only opens from the inside. if in an accident they may not be able to access me or my passengers in the vehicle. i am unaware of the cause of this issue and have not gotten it looked at by a professional.

Manufacturer’s defect, all (4) windows quit operating. hyundai dealer where vehicle was purchased did repair my driver window, however; shortly after that window was repaired, all other (3) windows quit working at the same time. one (1) window was in the down position. hyundai of new port richey said they would not repair my windows, however; they did get the window up and suggested i purchase door stops to place in the window to keep it up….this also happened to the other rear window. i live in florida and on august 17, 2023 i had to drive myself to mease/countryside hospital, the heat index was 115 degrees, i had to get into my extremely hot vehicle. i was diagnosed with heat exhaustion. my bill was $ 23,000. i also have a grand baby i have to place in my very hot vehicle when i babysit. three (3) windows do not function. on september 08, 2023, hyundai of npr service advisor gave me a ball park quote of $ 750.00, including labor to repair all three (3) windows….i then made a formal complaint to the complaint number i found in my vehicle manual: case number [xxx] they did not help and referred me to the general manager of the dealership. now the price to repair is $ 2,100.00. they will fix if i pay half! i have talked with other 2016 hyundai tucson owners who have run into the same problem. the manufacturer is at fault, the window parts are defective! please help me, my health has been affected and i hate putting my grandchild [xxx] in unheathy environment. thank you for anything you can help me with. [xxx] . information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)

Power window passenger side, stopped working, it is not the motor, you can hear motor running but window does not work.

Front passenger door and rear passenger door will not open from the inside or outside. this is a major safety issue if someone has to get out in an emergency. i searched online and there are a ton of issues with the 2016 hyundai tucson in regards to the locking mechanisms in the doors.

Failing transmission including inability to engage reverse and slipping gears while shifting.

Vehicle has 101k miles on it, just over the 100k hyundai warranty. vehicle began shaking and sputtering while driving, and check engine light illuminated, i was able to get it to a local mechanic. mechanic said it had multiple codes (p300, p302, and p304). they did a compression test and said the engine has internal failure and should be replaced; quoted 13k to replace. i had it towed to the hyundai dealership where i bought it, and they are investigating it. the service manager told me even with perfect maintenance records, hyundai will likely deny a goodwill claim to replace the engine. looking at all these engine failure complaints for this year model, it is clear this is an ongoing problem and hyundai needs to issue a recall.

My hyundai tucson burns through 3.5 quarts of oil in 1,000 miles. i do not feel safe driving my vehicle. yet i have no choice as hyundai dealerships do not offer loaner cars and nurses cannot call off from the hospital with car problems. i purchased a hyundai because of the 100,000 mile warranty, and i expect resolution in a timely manner. i have kept detailed records, including the 14 oil changes and two oil pan resealings required in the past year.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving 75 mph, he and his wife observed a faint knocking sound coming from the front of the vehicle. the contact stated that the noise grew louder while attempting to exit the highway. the contact stated that the oil, check engine, and unknown warning lights were illuminated. additionally, the contact observed smoke coming from the engine compartment however, there was no fire. the vehicle was steered to the side of the road and the hood was opened. the vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed. the contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. the vehicle was towed to a dealer and was awaiting a diagnostic test. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure and a case was opened. the contact was informed by the manufacturer that the vehicle could not be repaired because service campaign 966 was not performed on the vehicle before the failure. the failure mileage was 111,000.

Oil consumption is very high and leads to no oil in car in a normal oil change timeframe then a failed engine comes no lights on to indicate oil is low dealership denies oil is low

Engine heating problems, electrical problems and now engine failure, the vehicle is no longer safe to drive. the vehicle is available for inspection. other vehicles of same make, model, and year have been recalled for these issues however mine has not. i feel it has the same types of issues and safety concerns which should be recalled. the issues began with electrical problems inside the vehicle, random check engine lights coming on then off and other lights popping up in the dash board, the car was not accelerating properly, took the car in and they could not find a problem or fix it. the engine began heating and the speed of vehicle was also being affected. the car would randomly slow down quickly while on the highway at 70 mph which happened a couple of times and was not safe at all, it could have caused a horrible accident. i could not accelerate enough to stay on the highway. that issue was fixed when we took the vehicle into the dealership to fix and should have been a recall as other cars where having the same issue. hyundai should be held responsible for issues such as this that are affecting many other hyundai tucson drivers. oil keeps depleting and the engine is burning through fast, also another concern and safety issue as that causes the engine to over heat and potentially cause a fire. a loud noise is coming from the vehicle, sounds like a helicopter it happened suddenly with no check engine light or warning. i'm concerned this car could catch fire, many tucson's have had warning of catching fire. i don't park in our garage or even in the driveway for fear of that happening although they state ours is not supposed to be affected all these vehicle issues are telling me otherwise. engine is now dead.this is unacceptable. windows cannot be rolled down after multiple fixes that i paid for. hyundai's poor production, manufacturing and quality control is unacceptable, please hold them responsible. too much money has been spent on issues with no real results.

The drivers back door won't open from the inside or outside. the drivers door is sticking and starting to do the same thing. very hazardous in case of fire, accident or attempted car jacking.

The door latch has went out and i am unable to enter my driver side door without pulling the handles more than 5 to 10 times. this is a danger to my safety if i am being followed.

I was at a stop light, when i went to accelerate, the car would not move past 20 mph. i pressed down on the pedal, and the gauge did not go past 20 mph. after a few seconds, the car started to accurate, but it happened again at a second stop light a few minutes later.

The engine began to make a knocking noise. upon our inspection, the vehicle had lost all oil. vehicle was towed to our local dealership. dealership informed us a bearing had become worn causing rapid oil loss and a rod to break, sending metal shards into the engine compartment. engine could have seized up or caught on fire, had the vehicle continued to run. dealership informed us of other hyundai recalls for the same issue, however we were told our year/make/model was not included. vehicle had been at same dealership 2 months prior for a heat/ac issue and a complete inspection was completed. no indication of bearing, oil, or engine issue was noted. no warning lights came on at any point.

This vehicle is only a 2016 with less than 100k miles on it, and the sunroof, passenger and driver window regulators have already failed and have had to replace them. now my rear windows are having the same issue and need to be replaced. the company has no recall for these substandard parts yet.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving 65 mph, the engine overheated. the check engine warning light illuminated. the contact drove the vehicle to the shoulder of the road. the contact opened the hood and became aware that the coolant cap had detached and there was coolant covering the engine. the contact stated that the engine failure had occurred previously, and the failure was persistent. the vehicle was towed to the dealer. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 131,000.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while attempting to accelerate from a stop, while depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle failed to immediately accelerate as intended, before suddenly lurching forward. no warning lights were illuminated. the vehicle was taken to the dealer, who was unable to determine the cause of the failure. the dealer informed the contact that the vehicle was functioning as expected. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who was unable to determine the cause of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was opened. the failure mileage was 53,000.

A/c failure & heat failure which resulted in an accident. was not the thermostat. accedent was unable to defrost/defog windows, causing the driver to crash

In between oil changes, almost all oil will be burned off in none is added. there are no oil leaks or other problems. this access oil consumption is a manufacturing defect.

The check engine light came on in my 2016 tucson , which only had 77k in mileage. i had it towed to a hyundai dealership in richmond, va. they reported that there was a rod beading issue which would require a total engine rebuild for $15k. i have since learned that there was a class action lawsuit against hyundai. this recall included the theta ii engine, not the engine in my 2016 tucson, which is a 1.6 turbo. the defective part in the theta ii engine is the same defective part in the 1.6 turbo. when the engine malfunctions, it can cause the engine to go into limp mode which prevents acceleration, it can cause the motor to seize up, or it can cause engine fire. when i contact hyundai customer service and explained my concern with the engine not being covered in the lawsuit, they admitted that it probably should have been. while the dealership is blaming the issue on a missed oil change, it is a known fact that this is an ongoing issue with the engine. i have documentation attached from my local mechanic sharing the notification hyundai technical service bulletin. i have since done a lot of reading about the issue with this motor and i have joined several social media groups whose members have all had issue with these engines. these cars are pose a safety risk to the driver and others on the road. they should all be recalled. please let me know if you require any additional information from me.

Lock button on driver's side door handle fell out. replaced at my cost.

Right front door (passenger) will not open when using the outside handle. passenger front door latch replaced under technical bulletin / silent recall at no cost to me.

Was unable to open front passenger side window using driver's side controls, but was able to close. no problem opening and closing the passenger window from the passenger's side controls. was fixed by replacing the driver's side master window switch at my expense (no longer under warranty).

Car shuddering going from full stop to 1st gear, not fixed by software update. clutch replaced under drive train warranty at no cost to me.

Air conditioning compressor stopped working, it had 'seized' according to the dealer and had to be replaced at my expense since it was out of warranty.

Left turn signal intermittently not working. tapping briskly on the turn signal stalk would make it start back up again. dealer could not reproduce the issue, so no repairs were made. still happening 5+ years later.

The window regulator cables for all windows have failed multiple times, even after taking it to the dealership and paying to have this defect “fixed” they fail again. now the only working window is the drivers and i cannot afford to have the other 3 fixed which is a safety hazard if an emergency were to happen. this is a manufacturer defect and there needs to be a recall done.

The passenger side headlight compartment has condensation in it. enough condensation so the headlights don't work. when i took it in for recall work i mentioned this as i thought that it might have possibly been a short or a loose wire, and they shared that no it's not wired it's just water in that enclosure and i need to pay for it myself to get it replaced to the tune of $1900 for the new part.. i've seen other complaints about the same problem. why will hyundai not fix this? i found something from hyundai that states, do not replace!

The engine sign keep blinking on the dashboard, i went to auto zone, they scan it and say that the power train system with code p1326 glow relay short circuit is the problem. this would be the second time it comes on. the first time it came on but then stopped in a few days but it’s on back again.

I had the vehicle towed to a mechanic when i was driving out of town and the check engine light came on. i pulled over and was able to get off the freeway and safely park. i called for a tow tuck. at the time the check engine light came on it started to stutter and act like it was out of gas or oil. i just had my oil changed few weeks ago and had plenty of gas. i could tell something wasn't right. when i found a safe place to pull over and park while i waited for the tow truck. i tried to start the engine and it would crank but quickly start shaking. i tried starting it up to see if i could make it to a church that was several yards away and when i tempted to it quickly started to shake and out of fear of getting stuck or hit i just let it stay put until the tow truck came. once the tow truck arrived they were having a hard time getting it to start to get on the truck. i had it towed to a local mechanic and it stated that it failed the compression test and needs a engine repair. since it needs a new engine i had it towed to the hyundai dealership and after they performed there tests it came to the same conclusion. new engine. at this point, the dealership says it's not covered. the car has 89k miles. at this point i'm at the mercy of the dealership and honestly i just want out of this car and in a safe and reliable vehicle. i owe more than what's its worth. i feel like the moment i purchased this vehicle it was a lemon and had alot of issues arise that shouldn't

My driver window stopped working in 2022, i paid to go get it fixed at an automotive place and then now as of 2023 all of the other 3 windows stopped working within a 2-4 month period. for all 3 windows to go randomly stop working within the 2-4 month period is the concern. i have mentioned this issue to my dealership and cooperate is also aware of the situation. the vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer. no warning lamps, messages, or symptoms ever appeared anywhere, it just happened randomly and out of nowhere.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving 45 mph, there was an abnormal sound coming from the engine compartment, prompting the contact to cease driving the vehicle. no warning lights were illuminated. the vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, who diagnosed a failure with the engine and informed the contact that the vehicle needed to be taken to the dealer. the vehicle was not repaired. the vehicle was then taken to the dealer, who determined that there were metal fragments in the oil, resulting in damage. the contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure but provided no assistance. the failure mileage was 84,000.

All 4 windows will not roll up/ down. using multiple quarts of oil a week. the heat doesn’t work. back doors will not open.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while his daughter was driving 25 mph, the vehicle stalled. there was a rattling sound coming from the vehicle. the vehicle then entered limp mode. the check engine warning light was illuminated. the driver was able to drive to the side of the road. the vehicle was towed to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed that the engine had seized due to rod bearing failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the dealer informed the contact there was no warranty coverage on the vehicle. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who informed the contact about an extended warranty coverage. the manufacturer was contacted and declined to authorize the repair. the contact stated that the failure was related to tsb number: 22-01-023h-2 (engine and engine cooling). the failure mileage was approximately 90,000.

My 2016 tucson sport with eco shift has a dangerous problem with the transmission. intermittently it will not move when i give it gas. the rpms go up to 6000 but the car wont move. its the dct transmission. today i took it in for the 3rd time and i don't want it back until its fixed. this is a very unsafe vehicle to drive since you would not know when it would just stop shifting and driving. have registered a complaint with hyundai motors as the service department does not know when the vehicle will be repaired. 

While driving my car started to have trouble accelerating and then the engine started to make a knocking noise. while driving the noise started to get louder and worse and then the check engine light came on. i have checked for recalls with my vin # and there are none. the issue i am having with my vehicle is exactly like recalls i have seen listed for other years and or version of my 2016 hyundai tucson turbo. i can not drive my car and i need help.

The engine in this vehicle is faulty like same engine in 2016 hyundai veloster. the recall that covers the engine in the veloster shows identical engine failure to that seen in our vehicle. we noticed that the engine oil light came on within 3k miles of the last oil change and when we checked we had lost over 3 quarts of oil with no signs of external leaking. we put in more oil and within a week it started knocking and the engine failed. we took it to the shop and they said they had replaced multiple hyundai engines under warranty for same exact problem. reference hyundai campaign 22-01-023h. hyundai is stating they are not going to fix this issue on the hyundai tucson because it doesn't fall under the recall yet though they know it has same issue. our car has less than 90k miles with full synthetic used the entire time. this engine fails, they know why it fails, and ours did while my wife was taking kids to school.

Engine was burning more oil between oil changes. auto shop diagnosed engine as blown engine after scoping each valve. 126,000 miles

When both driving and idling, the car will either stall or feel like it is about to stall, when all of a sudden the vehicle “pauses” for a second and then all of the dashboard lights come on. this has now happened at least 4 times in the past month. it will reset after turning the car off, but on more than one occasion after turning the car off, the engine doesn’t restart right away. thankfully, the car has restarted and it resets the dashboard lights. my safety is a concern if my car stalls while driving at any speed! i have yet to take it to the dealer, as there’s a very long wait for an appointment - another recurring issue. no one has inspected this for me, and it is very concerning. there is plenty of evidence that this is happening to others in both online forums and hyundai owners sites online.

I have joined the millions of disappointed hyundai customers who have faulty engines in their cars. hyundai is refusing to replace my engine or provide any assistance because there is no formal recall for my vehicle. in may of 2023, my engine failed after starting to have oil consumption issues and hyundai diagnosed it as failure due to maintenance neglect. when i opened a case with hyundai, i gave all maintenance records, including a january full-point inspection done by hyundai, showing no engine issues or anything engine-related to be addressed. in follow up after providing the records, hyundai determined it was actually not due to neglect of maintenance, but a dirty valve train, and therefore there was nothing they could do since i was out of my warranty period. however, when i asked how i was to know my valve train was dirty if all my inspections came back with no issues, i was told that it just happens and there is no way to prevent. i asked them to re-open my case and they again asked for maintenance records, the ones i already provided, to try and say again that it was maintenance related. i kept getting different stories from the case manager, the service manager at cool springs hyundai, and the gm at cool springs hyundai. i have since joined a group on facebook with thousands of others encountering this same issue - random engine failure and case managers requesting maintenance records in the hopes hyundai can find a way to blame it on the consumer. it’s no secret that hyundai makes vehicles with faulty engines as seen by the multiple recalls over the past few years, including the recent one regarding engine fires affecting 3+ million customers. hyundai needs to be held accountable. in research of my engine, the 1.6l gdi, i see that this engine is under recall for the hyundai veloster for the same exact issue that i have had, but for some reason that same engine in my vehicle has yet to be recalled. i plead for your assistance and resolving.

Door locks no longer work. passenger side failed and now (3 months later) drivers side failed. this prevents entry and exit in case of emergency. rear doors function appropriately. when locking and unlocking the doors, the front two make a mechanical sound. when unlocked, they do not open.

Loss of power while driving thru heavy traffic causing car to go into a low speed. no warning lights until after turning off and back on. hyundai dealership confirms no compression cyl 3, metal shaving in engine block, oil full. engine in car 1.6l gdi turbo, not under hyundai recall. hyundai denying claim to replace because vin not included in recall but does admit engine is same as in other recalled engines for same issue. losing power in heavy traffic with no warning was safety issue. only light to come on was engine light after the fact.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that after the vehicle came to a complete stop, the accelerator pedal was depressed, and the vehicle lurched forward but hesitated to accelerate immediately. an unknown warning light illuminated, and the check engine warning light was later illuminated. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who retrieved dtc code: p073f (unable to engage gear 1), but no repair was recommended. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the contact related the failure to nhtsa campaign number: 16v628000 (power train, electrical system) however, the vin was not included in the recall. the failure mileage was approximately 93,000.

Driver side door latch won't open after unlocking with key fob. no warning from inside the car. have not been to a dealer or independent service center so have not had any inspections. not necessarily a safety issue at this point but could be in the future. as part of my work, i'm in and out of my car a lot so locking the car is necessary. i should not have to climb over the shift/middle console to unlock it. should be part of a recall to fix.

Vehicle transmission prolongs shifting from 1st to 2nd gear, and from 2nd to 3rd gear. vehicle only has 55000 miles on it and we are second owners of the vehicle. this has been on ongoing issue with the vehicle that we attributed to design but a month ago, the check engine light came on. we took is the ray skillman hyundai who diagnosed that the transmission was the cause of the check engine light and that the entire transmission will need to be replaced at a cost of a little over $7000 to us. the original warranty on the car offered a 10-year, 100,000 mile warranty but ray skillman hyundai nor hyundai corporate will replace the transmission without charge. we also know of many other issues related to transmission components of other hyundai vehicles. the vehicle puts at risk because the unexpected pause puts the drivers behind us at risk of running into us.

This make an model has issues with the doors not opening, when they are unlocked and from time to time the windows will not open. these are both huge safety concerns. i have reported this to hyundai and have a case number 2104500 which nothing has been done and i have heard nothing in over a year. this make and model need to be recalled for the door and window issues which are all over the internet when a search is done.

Window regulator is not working in all the windows i spend more 1000 dolars just to fixed the front ones still waiting to have money to fix the back ones the parts are made from cheap material this should be a recall

I was driving home from work and heard knocking sound come from engine. no sensors came on to alert me of any problem. i pulled over and checked oil. there was no oil and it was not due for oil change for another 1,000 miles. oil is always changed between 3-5k miles. took it to gettel hyundai dealership where it was purchased. they are unable to explain what or why this happened. took claim out with hyundai as there is only 60k miles. hyundai and dealership offered no help because warranty had ended. just told me it needed a new engine for $8k. hyundai corporate denied claim also citing lack of service. that is not a valid reason and makes no sense. we provided every paper receipt showing diligent oil changes and required mile maintenance. they never bothered to do an engine oil burning test. after researching this online there is a well-known problem with these engines burning oil. there was no oil leaking. why did no sensor alert me there was no oil? this seems like a major safety concern. hyundai is refusing to take responsibility for this problem and needs to address this properly. this car engine should be recalled.

My car randomly will not reverse; it's happened a few times, i was alone or with my 5 year old the first time, and next couple of times i've had witnesses (husband and a friend) and this last time i was alone but i took a video. sometimes my car feels like it has no power or like it's in the first gear struggling to make it past that (it's an automatic but that's the best way i can describe it). three out of my four doors stick and i have to pull multiple times to get the door opened, even though it's unlocked. i find these issues, while not outright dangerous, can be a hassle especially when i'm in a parking lot trying to reverse into a spot or out of a spot. it's hard for my 8 year old to get in or out of the car cause her door sticks. i feel like when my car is driving sluggish, that i am going to get hit by another car.

Hi, i am an owner of 4 hyundai vehicles and all had the steering wheel coupler failed before 100,000 miles. 2 sonata and 1 elantra coupler was replaced under the 100,000 miles extended warranty but my 2016 tucson with 80,000 miles is not covered. all hyundai and kia vehicles have this problem. why only some models are covered and not others? the problem is the same across the board. i think hyundai should be compel to honor repairs on all models for this common steering wheel coupler problem and not on selected model.

The driver side door fails to open from the outside. i'm not sure if it is available for inspection, as i've tried to contact the hyundai dealership i got it from, and they haven't gotten back to me. this is a safety issue because it causes me to have to walk around to the passenger side door and either climb over, or reach over and partially open the driver door then get back out and walk over to the other side again. i live in a big city and as a woman i don't always feel safe having to take extra time to get into my vehicle. it's also a safety issue because if something goes wrong, someone can't open the door to get to me. a dealer friend of a friend looked at the door and confirmed something is wrong with the latch cable, and also said that it would cost up to $1500 to repair. this is the only person who has inspected it so far. it looks like i'm not the only person who has had door issues with tuscons which is why i'm here. there was no warning at all. i drove the vehicle to work with no incident and then when i left work i found i could not open the door anymore even after locking and unlocking a few times. this was back at the beginning of march 2024.

My 2016 hyundai tucson has had power and acceleration issues since i purchased it brand new in 2016 from the dealership. when trying to accelerate onto the freeway, or trying to turn onto busy traffic the engine would rev but not pick up speed causing a dangerous situation when traffic is present. i have had all the updates to my vehicle, but the issue did not improve. at first i thought it had something to do with the transmission, but recently i have discovered that it was probably something wrong with the engine all this time. i currently have 111,070 miles on my vehicle, and i have kept up with routine maintenance. i had noticed in the last couple of years that my engine oil was burning at an extremely high rate, and i had to keep replenishing it between oil changes. i never saw any oil leaking on the ground though. about a month ago while i was entering a freeway, my check engine light started flashing and i could not accelerate. the vehicle’s engine started misfiring and the vehicle was having a hard time switching gears. fortunately it was early in the morning before rush hour traffic otherwise i would have been hit by oncoming traffic. i had the codes read and they came back as p0300, p0302, and p0304. i had already had the spark plugs replaced less than 10,000 miles prior to this, so we tried changing the ignition coils. that did not help, so we changed the spark plugs too. this still did not solve the problem. a mechanic ran a compression test and determined there is a problem with the engine. i have read numerous other complaints online now about similar issues with the 2016 hyundai tucson engine failure with less than 150,000 miles that put people in harms way while driving down the road. the engine failure is occurring even with regular maintenance.

The driver side door will no longer open from the outside. i have to crawl through the passenger side to open the door from the inside. according to a google search, this is a common issue with this car.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that on multiple occasions while driving at various speeds, the four windows rolled down independently. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where the front driver’s side window was replaced; however, the three remaining windows failed to operate as needed. recently, the rear passenger’s side window was locked in place by a mechanic to prevent the persistent failure. the dealer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed that the vehicle was not under recall or warranty. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was approximately 60,000.

I have a 2016 hyundai tucson. so far i had to have both the front driver side and passenger side window regulators replaced. i just recently noticed that both of my back windows do not work. i currently have an appointment with the hyundai dealer to replace both of the back window regulators. i drive around with a piece of duck tape holding the back windows up. hyundai has to know that this is a problem. hyundai requires an anti theft recall but it’s useless as anyone can pull my windows down by force due to broken regulator in each door. insanely ridiculous and unsafe.

My 2016 hyundai tucson has been experiencing sudden engine failures for about 10 months now. driving at 70 mph on a freeway and experiencing a loss of torque is terrifying. glad i was able to pull off safely. engine lights came on for a few seconds and then turned off. visit to the dealer showed... nothing. the engine is under warranty, but hyundai dealers continue to dismiss the issue. also, this engine has been excessively burning oil during the very same timeframe. there are no leaks - confirmed by hyundai dealers. i have to put in about a quarter every other 2-3 weeks. hadn't i done this, my vehicle would not make it to the next oil change. really frustrating! reading thru complaints to nthsa, there a lot of us facing the same issues, with faulty engines and excessive oil consumption. this must be investigated, and a recall notice settled. hyundai must be held accountable.

The back door latch does not unlock so neither back passanger doors will open at all. if something were to happen where we need to evacuate quickly this puts people in the back at a huge risk. i have taken it to get repaired and they want at least $250 for each door. there were no warnings one day the door just stopped opening and then the other stopped. it’s been over a year now. there are multiple videos on youtube on how to “fix” it for this specific vehicle so i don’t understand how this hasn’t been recalled already.

My rear passenger door will not open from the inside or outside. my front passenger door has difficulties opening, i have to try to handle a few times. the front passenger door has been since i purchased the vehicle in 2022 but the rear passenger vehicle just started 5/2/24. the alternator has already been replaced as of 2022 and the front passenger motor has already been replaced as of april 2024 because the window stopped going up. and all of these have been at my expense!! i have read owner blogs that have all of these same issues. this is a huge safety concern. what if there is an emergency and i can't get my child safely out of his car seat? these issues, especially the door actuators, needs to be a recall and fixed immediately at no expense to the owners.

There is no power when accelerating, especially up a hill. the rpm's hover over 4k for a long time before downshifting, hence, eating up gas like crazy. also, the passenger side back door does not open at all, the driver's side back door takes several pulls before opening, the driver's door takes 3 pulls to open, and the front passenger door takes a minimum of three pulls to open. the no power just recently started happening. the door issue started in late 2023 and has gotten progressively worse just recently.

When driving all the warning light is on. also when you reduce speed or stop at the light the steering wheel turn hard to turn or move. the battery seem to be low voltage, because when you lock the car the sound of the horn sound weak. and wouldn't start.

The car did not accelerate after pressing gas pedal all way down. encountered this while idling and trying to accelerate from a steady speed as well.

I was driving to work tuesday and noticed that my car wasn't accelerating and losing speed, pulled over and as soon as i came to a stop, it dies. i got it towed to my mechanic, they said i was out of oil and throwing a p1326 code for the ksds. i'm not sure how that is possible, cause i changed the oil a month prior on april 6, this happened may 7. mechanic put more oil in and i was taking it home. i noticed a funny noise and took it back to my mechanic; got there and it started knocking and cut off as soon as i stopped again. mechanic did another diagnostic and it threw the code again. got it towed to the dealership and i'm now waiting on them. apparently it's the engine, they have been having lots of issues with them.

Engine is being replaced due to excessive oil consumption. first sign was engine knocking in november 2022, which resolved with oil change. july 2023, engine knocking was heard again, hyundai dealer said car came in with no oil. had oil changed / filled, was advised to bring car back in 1000 miles. december 2023, brought car back to dealer after ~1000 miles, no knocking but oil was 2 quarts below spec. ladder frame was resealed and ladder frame o-ring replaced. oil was refilled, oil pan and oil dip stick both sealed for oil consumption test. feb 2024, car brought back to dealer after ~1000 miles, no knocking but oil was 1.8 quarts low. combustion chamber cleaning was performed and oil refilled. oil pan and oil dip stick both sealed for another oil consumption test. early may 2024, car brought back to dealer after ~1000 miles, oil still apparently quite low (no details provided by dealer). engine replacement approved by hyundai corporate in mid-may 2024.

I have three doors on my tucson affected. back passenger door will not open at all from the inside or outside. the driver’s will open if i lock and unlock three or four times and pull the handle three or four times. the back drivers door is now doing the same thing as the drivers door. i have looked into the cost of having it repaired and hyundai wants over $1500 per door to fix the issue. if i pay the close to $5000 to fix these doors, which i most definitely don’t have and don’t know anybody who does, i will have paid more than half the value of the car just to fix the doors. i’ve looked online and there are hundreds and thousands of people having the same problem - multiple years of tucson models and other hyundai models such as the elantra. my car only has 62,000 miles on it. it has only had two owners. in the six years that i have owned the car i have only had people in the backseat three or four times. this is definitely not a wear problem. it is most definitely a safety issue. if i am in an accident and unconscious and the emergency workers can’t get the door open to get to me, it’s a safety issue. if i’m in an accident and can’t get the door open to escape the car, it is a safety issue. if i am going to my car late at night by myself and can’t get into the car it’s a safety issue. i am divorced and live alone, and drive across country occasionally. if i’m stopped at a rest stop or gas station and can’t get into my car this is a safety issue. if there are children in the backseat of the car and the door can’t be opened to get to the children this is a safety issue. the back passenger door stopped working entirely about 6 to 8 months ago - it can’t be opened from the inside or outside at all. the driver’s door started having issues about 3 to 4 months ago. the back drivers door just started having the issue three days ago. i do not understand why a safety recall has not yet been issued for this problem considering the huge number of affected cars out there.

Drivers side rear passenger door will not open most times. in an emergency situation a rear passenger would not be able to exit.

Both rear doors will not open from inside or outside. this began 3 years ago, with intermittent opening issues. for the last six months, neither rear door will open from inside, or outside. with the thousands of complaints i have seen online, one would think our government would do something!!!

Right front window will not go up regulator bad

Internal engine failure; no compression cylinder. my vehicle was affected by the tucson dual clutch transmission reprogramming recall. in higher ambient temperatures and specific operating conditions, the transmission clutch application logic can result in a delayed engagement when accelerating from a stop, and the vehicle would not accelerate. inability to move the vehicle in traffic. the car is well maintained and in excellent shape. they estimated the cost to replace the engine at $14,000! and hyundai dealer larry miller denied any help with the repair cost.

The passenger door window rolled down but would not come back up. i was able to grab the window and pull it up. this is a safety issue because anyone can just push the window down. not too mention if an officer needed you to roll down the window you could not.

Ever since i bought my vehicle off the lot, my oil has been burning and/or leaking from the engine. i have been having to put oil in every 2-3 weeks. also as a result of the oil problem, the oil gets on the spark plugs and coils and erodes them causing them to burn out every 6 months. the first instance i had with this problem was on a road trip to texas from tennessee alone. all four spark plugs began faltering on the highway where the speed limit was 75mph, easily a dangerous situation for a malfunctioning engine. i had to pay to repair my vehicle the next day and it totaled to a little under $600. i have been checking for recalls on my specific vehicle for months but have seen none, despite there being similar recalls on other hyundai vehicles. the electrical problem i’ve been experiencing is the windows start falling in to the doors or don’t roll down at all. currently i have three windows with this problem, one of which i have had repaired.

Rear doors will not open from inside or outside. this traps passengers if they are in the back seats. back seats can only be accessed by climbing in from the front seats

The driver and driver passenger doors get stuck and will not open after you lock them so i cleave to climb over the passenger to lock the door or i have to keep the windows down to be able to unlock and open the door the door latches are getting stuck i went to hyundai in little rock the said i was covered under warranty and they never fixed it nor called me to tell me the part came in and it’s ready to be fixed this is a major safety hazard because i could be in a dark place or running from someone and can’t get inside the car or have access inside the driver side to do anything

I can not get my rear left passenger door to open from either inside or outside.

Three of the four windows will not roll up and down.

Pronounced rattle from the steering column (not the wheel) when going over a rough surface. vehicle has only 49,000 miles on it. hyundai dealer checked and determined the rattle was not a safety issue and said a small plastic piece in the steering mechanism had broken and quoted a repair cost of over $1,000. i do not believe the dealership's diagnosis, nor its' safety assessment and believe they are simply avoiding a repair that should be covered under the vehicle's soon to expire warranty!

Passenger door lock-right rear door will not unlock from outside or inside

The car started making noises. there were no warning lights and we drove to the hyundai dealership in south charleston, wv, where we were told it needs a new engine. the car is under warranty and hyundai has denied the claim. luckily we made it to the dealership before the car stopped. we had no indication there was a problem. we were traveling from out of state when this happened. an engine should not suddenly die with no warning. we have all the maintenance records.

Oil consumption is excessive it has caused the engine to have a knocking noise even though routine oil changes have been up to date. yes available for inspection. this may cause the engine to seize at any given point while in motion. no, i have not been able to take the vehicle to a dealership yet. no, vehicle has not been inspected. no, no check engine/warning light has turned on. knocking noise began june 28th 2024.

I own a 2016 hyundai tucson and have noticed that none of the doors other than the driver door will open either from the inside or outside. i have small children that i drive to and from school, activities. if we were to get into a wreck or were to run off rode into a body of water my children could drown or die due to doors not opening. this seems to be a very common issue with hyundai and needs to be addressed and recalled and fixed by dealership immediately!

The vehicle intermittently fails to accelerate without warning or notification. the throttle pedal goes to the floor without the engine stalling or rev'ing but also fails to propel the vehicle. this has occurred when crossing lanes of on-coming traffic placing the operator in an extremely dangerous situation. in addition, the vehicle also intermittently fails to go in reverse. these issues are most prevailant in warmer summer temperatures. neither of these issues directly triggered a mil light. mil lights did occur independent from the cited issues but would typically self clear. on one occasion i was able to get a scan of the vehicle with an active mil that yielded a p1921 gear 2 system motor thermal damage. shortly after the scan, the code cleared and mil went off. the conditions were not able to be reproduced by the dealership. they were also not able to clearly diagnose what would cause the p1921 fault. their recommendation was to replace the entire transmission. all of the issues experience closely align with a issues cited in a class action law suit despite the vehicle not having any open recalls or tsbs.

The driver's side back door will not open from the inside or outside. there was no warning or damage down to cause this, just one day it would not open. from research on the internet this is a common problem with a 2016 tucson and is due from the lock actuator and is not being recalled. this is a huge safety risk if someone needed to exit the backseat quickly.

I have a 2016 hyundai tucson limited. i have had both front windows regulators break within the past year. i had the drivers side repaired but, was hoping there would be a recall before i spent $800 to repair the other one. but hyundai should own up to this issue and have a recall, if they want return customers. time to step up hyundai

At certain times my car doesn’t want to start. like when there were carburetors in cars way back in the day, i literally have to pump the gas to make it start. and then once it does, it’s very hesitant to go on the road like it has no power. and then another time my car totally just shut down in the middle of traffic and would barely go, like it had no speed ability. this happens often my car is not under warranty. and it is not included in the recall with some kind of fuel pump situation. i had a mechanic look at it. he seems to think it’s something to do with the fuel pump. but unfortunately, i cannot afford the cost of repairing that, and he didn’t seem quite certain as well.

I was driving in the main road with my grandkids and the vehicle just shut down . i bought it in november of 2023. i brought it back to carmax because it was hesitating and not acting properly and it was within my 90 day warranty and they said nothing was wrong . motor seized and turbo no good a few months later and i owe 19000 on this car and they refuse to replace the motor since i’m second owner without a warranty they were suppose to give me . i had to get people to push my car to the side and wait 2 hours for a tow and now the garage says it’s 10-11000for a motor . carmax just said they would pay for labor charges but that still leaves me with a hefty bill on top of what i owe . i told them to just take the car and give me another or pay for the motor and they refuse . my cars now sitting at my house because i can’t afford a motor . it’s a 1.6l motor with turbo . that price is a used motor :(

Have had to replace the regulator in all four windows. seems to be a pretty common problem online. reporting this so hopefully enough people say something that hyundai has a recall and reimburses us for the repairs. thanks

• temperature regulator stopped working •couldn’t use a/c in very hot months, couldn’t use heat in very cold months putting risk of freezing and overheating • independent service •no •no

•window regulator •stops windows movement •our independent service provider •no •no

Vehicle started to shake and lost acceleration. gave engine code p073f unable to engage gear 1. hyundai shows recall campaign for this issue but dealer refuses to acknowledge it, and says it needs new transmission. they state transmission damaged clutch rather than clutch damaged transmission.

Driver window won’t go up & front passenger window won’t go down.

Front passenger regulator went out. 1 month later rear passenger and driver rear regulator went out. currently only have 1 potenworking window with a child under the age of 18 that riders in this vehicle a primary vehicle. extremely unsafe if there was an emergecy.. seeing others online having same issue.

Loss of power, transmission slipping. unable to get car to move creating hazard. happened 5 times. diagnosed by dealer as systemic transmission component failure and known issue. many of the same complaints on internet, code p1921

The car door handles are failing to work properly. initially (june 2024), the passenger side front door required the handle to be pumped twice before it would open. the door would open correctly from the inside only. that problem was corrected. now (aug 2024), the driver side rear door handle has failed and the door cannot be opened from the outside or inside. the precise nature of that issue will be determined tomorrow. in june, i was told by the service advisor at jenkins hyundai of ocala [florida] that hyundai is aware of an issue with the functioning of door handles (i.e., the actuator) and has extended the warranty from five to ten years for this issue. i my judgment, this is a major safety issue if a door cannot be opened.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while the vehicle was parked at the residence, the rear doors on the driver’s and passenger’s sides were not opening as needed after several attempts of locking and unlocking the doors. the vehicle was not towed to a dealer or independent mechanic. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 25,000.

All four window regulators have failed. the plastic gear has totally disintegrated and has had to be replaced. i have noticed that this has been reported by customers numerous times. i hope that we may be reimbursed for the failure of the part since it is very, very common among these models. i have retained all receipts for parts and labor.

-first diagnosed as rod bearing failure by independent service center. second diagnosis of rod bearing failure made by hyundia dealership. -could not accelerate in the middle of traffic, could not move my car to safety, tow truck had to be called to move vehicle to safety, further towed to independent repair shop and then towed to hyundai dealership. was required to put myself in danger (in middle of traffic) to get help. no warning lights came on, no check engine light came on, and no low oil light came on. -currently available for inspection at hyundai dealership. -manufacturer declined to help since no recall listed for my vehicle and since outside warranty period, though almost all other engine models for my vehicle have been recalled for the exact same diagnosis (rod bearing failure). -no warning lamps whatsoever to notify me of anything being wrong-before, during, or after my car lost acceleration.

Rear doors not opening regardless of door latch being engaged from the inside or outside handles. due to being unable to open the rear doors, safety of rear passengers in non-emergency and emergency situations is significantly compromised. a formal recall has not been issued, yet in doing a quick internet search, this issue has been prevalent for years, which is very concerning.

The window regular failed is to weak don't last long have replaced all 4 and replacing the back one again

The vehicle hesitates sometimes starting from stop/idle and sometimes even when the gas paddle is completely pressed it doesn’t proceed and stalls in middle of road or red light and may take more attempts to get it to move further. i read online that there was a safety recall on this same model in 2016 for this exact same problem but i never received recall on my vehicle from hyundai.

I had my top engine block (not sure why not a full engine replacement) replaced under warranty june 2023. shortly after the fix my ac unit stopped working. once i got my ac unit fixed, about 1.5 months after my engine was not performing. my car would not turn over and when it did, it was in limp mode and would not run properly. i had it towed to dealership who could not find the issue until after they took out of the bay and went to move it, it wouldn't start. they replaced the crankshaft positioning sensor and it wasn't covered under the extended warranty. the top engine block only has 10k warranty which is fast approaching. took car home and when accelerated past 60 car shakes and when i brake car shakes. now car cabin smells of gas. all cars with km are having multiple issues. dealership not calling back regarding gas issue and has not responded to if they touched my tires. local mechanic said all my wheels were unbalanced.

I had multiple occasions where the car would blink lates and make screaming noises when acceleration. the vehicle never had a smooth process of stopping and going. when stopped at a light, you could press the acceleration and it idle or not speed up than rev the rmps and start to catch speed. it was very unsafe, i tried several attempts years ago at getting the vehicle maintenanced but only got rotors repaired from shaking and two other shops stating it was a recall and they could not service or fix the vehicle.

Ongoing engine problems with an oil consumption issue for the duration of first having the car (2021-2024). that is common with this year of hyundai. hyundai dealership won’t replace engine until warranty is up and you are left with a car that doesn’t run and a quote for a $14k engine.

Random engine failure. our safety was put at risk because our car randomly stopped working while going 70 miles per hour on the interstate. the problem was confirmed by an independent service center. the vehicle has been inspected by an independent service center. our check engine light came on and within 10 minutes our car was completely broke down on the side of the road.

Left rear door lock will not release when exterior or interior latch handle is pulled to open door

Right front window motor runs but window does not go up or down

My backup, my reverse is not working after 30 minutes the car is running.

This is the 2nd window regulator that i’m aware of this car is failing. 3 months ago before buying the car from the dealer they replace the rear passenger side regulator because the window won’t roll down or up. now 2 weeks ago the front passenger side window stop working and i’m afraid that is the same situation as so many people compliant about this issue on forums and videos online. also i used to have a 2010 hyundai tucson and have a problem with the rear passenger door not opening because the latch mechanism and the actuator. now this 2016 hyundai tucson under this vin number is experiencing the same problem due to a faulty design and cheap plastic products. this car has only over 61000 and can’t believe it have this many issues in the short amount of time. definitely hyundai needs to make a recall campaign for this components considering they’re key elements to an egress means of the car on emergency situation. please help us so many owners to get a response for these issues. thank you very much.

In december 2023 i purchased my first car, a 2016 hyundai tucsan limited edition. the car had approx. 70k miles. after only 9 months, i noticed i was unable to gain access into the rear passenger side door. i quickly ruled out child locks, faulty fuses, and any other issues as directed in the owners manual. the window is still functional. as of today, 10/10/24 ive had no luck being able to open the door. the mechanic stated it was an issue with the locking mechanism and quoted us for over $1400/$4000. he stated this is a common occurrence with this model. i find this issue with my newly purchased car, that i keep serviced and in perfect condition to be unacceptable. it is a major safety issue for me and my family. i am in school and work full time and i can not afford this type of repair. this type of issue should be recalled.

Driver side door window stopped working. not able to close or operate window. hyundai dealer diagnostic found window regulator inoperable/needs replacement. two (2) local hyundai dealers have ordered the regulator and are still waiting for part. dealer one not able to get regulator after 18 days; dealer two hoping part will be in after 10 days of ordering.

Passenger window regulator went out, then my window and my back passenger window went out and now i have 2 windows that cannot stay up and have paper holding them up.

3 of my window motors do not work and my windows now will not roll up or down.

I bought my 2016 tuscon brand new. ever since i bought the vehicle, i've complained to the dealer about the transmission slipping. they have told me that this issue is common but there is nothing they can do. now it seems to be getting worse so i decided to look up the problem and found out a recall notice was issued for some 2016 tuscons but mine wasn't included. my tuscon has the exact same problem as described in the recall issued by hyundai. i"ve almost been in accidents because you press on the gas to go and it hesitates,l. what can i do? my vin number is [xxx] . information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)

Purchased a 2016 hyundai tucson with approx. 79,000. was driving with all windows down one day. from the driver side window switch panel, i attempted to roll up the rear, left window.. the window would not roll up. the window rolls down when using the driver’s window switches for the left, rear window, but will not roll up. the rear left window switch will operate the window up and down only. discovered this problem when going through a drive through car wash and the window would not roll up. needless to say, the interior of my car got a good cleaning that day.

Purchased a used 2016 hyundai tucson, approx. 79,000 miles. a few weeks later i noticed a rattling in the steering column when driving over railroad tracks, rough roads, etc. when sitting stationary, i could rock the steering wheel back and forth and got a clunking sound. took to the dealership, they wanted $250 just to diagnose. did my own investigating. with the car turned on i would hold the steering wheel with one hand and hold the steering shaft with the other and work them in opposite directions. this replicated the clunking and knocking noise i would hear while driving. i determined it was a faulty upper pinch bolt. replaced the bold and all noise went away. fast forward a few months later and the sound returned. slightly at first, then the sound became very pronounced again. tightened pinch bolt again, went away. seems to either be a problem with the shaft itself or the upper pinch bolt. either way, my fear is the steering shaft is going to loosen and fall off of the steering column resulting in a loss of steering and potential accident. hyundai dealership seems to act clueless about issue.

There two incidents where i was driving in the highway and my car died mid driving. it put my life on risk twice. took it to the mechanic and was told that my car was leaking oil and caused my car to have an engine misfire. my car is un drivable. there were no engine or oil lights that appeared prior to the incident and i always got my regular oil changes and had put in more oil myself. hyundai refused to pay to the engine replacement even through this is a known issue. i’ve only had the car for two years and it’s under 100k miles.

Left driver side window conked out, does not go up or down.

When accelerating, like taking off from a red light or through a turn, my car begins to shake like it’s unable to change gears correctly, and sometimes leads to the car stalling in the middle of the street and intersection putting my in danger of being hit from other drivers. it’s also happened that when i press the gas after being stopped at a light, my car rpm goes up but i don’t move and then the car jolts forward quickly. this has been happening for years and when i take it to hyundai they tell me “that’s just how the car runs” which seems incredibly unsafe.

I went to roll up my window and i could hear it trying to go up but the window stayed in place. with my window stuck down, there is the risk of things flying in/out of my car while driving, and in the event of rain, my car would then become damaged if water got inside. also, with a window stuck down, anyone can get into my car. this first occurred to my front passenger window on september 8, and just happened to my drivers window today, november 1. both times occurred when my car was not moving. the passenger window was fixed in october and was diagnosed with the regulator and motor needing to be replaced.

While stopped at a traffic light trying to make a left turn. i pressed the gas pedal and i did not move. the engine revved up then kicked into second gear. the delay in shifting gears almost caused a crash. this has been an ongoing issue since i purchased the vehicle and surprisingly has not caused an accident yet. it always seems to happen when i am waiting to make a left turn, stopped at a traffic light or stopped at a stop sign. there has to be a underlying issue with this type of engine. i am not the only one that complains about this issue. i feel like it is only a matter of time until this causes an accident. i do anticipate this happening while i am driving and try to give myself enough time when making a left turn for a slight delay in shifting into first gear.

Front passenger door won’t open defroster/heat won’t work on drivers side

The driver's side rear door cannot be opened from either inside or outside. in researching the problem, i found evidence that the issue is commonly reported with the model 2016 hyundai tucson, which i own. many other owners have reported that their vehicles have experienced the same issue. mechanics have also expressed curiosity about why there hasn't been a factory recall. the problem is a design issue in some model years, including the 2016 model year. inability to access the back seats from the driver's side is an obvious safety concern.

Three weeks ago my dash board lit up like an orange christmas tree, with "abs failure" warnings. i found the hyundai recall notice in our car file. it said that when the dash warnings appeared, the danger of an engine fire was imminent and that should contact the dealer that i bought the car from (hyundai motors- naples, florida-usa). i did so. personally. an appt. was scheduled. this morning (fri. 11/15/24)upon arrival, a pleasant young woman informed me that hyundai sent out lots of notices like this, but they didn't apply to my vehicle. i showed her the recall notice with my car's vin number printed on it. she went back to her boss who told her "we fixed that for him three years ago," now, i am not certain of anything, but i never brought the car in for an abs system fix three years ago. i didn't know that i even had an "abs" system until three weeks back, when the dash board lit up. politely, i asked the young woman to bring my car back out, as we were done. she offered to make another appointment to "look" at the dash indicators." i said" no, we are done." so, now what do i do? is the car safe to drive or not? i own and operate an older hyundai santa fe as well. i would be appreciative of your advice. thank you in advance for your cooperation. the tucson is a good car. i just don't want it to blow up on me.

My windows stopped operating. both front driver and passenger. the motor runs but i am unable to roll up or down. according to what i’ve read, i am not alone. i worry for our safety and that of my family.

9/11/24 the 2016 hyundai tucson had a knock in the engine, the car was towed to beaverton hyundai for inspection and i was told that it was rod bearing failure that caused engine failure and that this was a known issue for hyundais theta ii engines and it would be $18k repair. hyundai just settled a billion dollar class action lawsuit for rod bearing failure where check engine and oil lights failed to illuminate. i asked for a pa to be submitted to hyundai motors america, as suggested by my usual shop dick’s hillsboro hyundai(whom didn’t have availability soon enough). the pa was denied stating “this is normal wear for a vehicle at 70k miles and it’s out of warranty.” this repair is not a cause my the consumer, but by a manufacturer defect. and i should not be expected to replace the engine at $15k after paying $20k 3 years ago when i bought the car. hyundai is being negligent.

I’m the original owner of a 2016 hyundai tucson with 72,000 miles. i’ve recently encountered an issue where the front passenger side window is stuck down and won’t move. i’ve had it diagnosed at the dealership and found that this seems to be a common issue with this model year, related to the window regulator. i understand my vehicle is slightly out of the 5-year/60,000-mile warranty, however; this issue has made my car vulnerable to weather damage and theft, and it’s affecting my ability to use it safely. i’ve always maintained my vehicle according to hyundai’s recommendations, and i believe this failure is premature for a part like this.

There is a lot of oil consumption, and the turbo is shot. it sits in the back of the engine, which is not collecting air.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle lost motive power. there was no warning light illuminated. the vehicle was towed to the dealer where it was diagnosed and determined that the engine had failed and needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 139,994.

Over the last 5-6 years, the 2016 tucson has experienced an acceleration issue. when making a turn after a stop, the car will not accelerate above 30 mph. the rpms will go up to 3000-4000, but the car will not go above 30 miles per hour. this has happened 5 times. i have had my mechanic look at the car, but because it was intermittent, they could not determine the cause. the fuel pump as well as the purge solenoid have been replaced on the car. if i turn the car off and let it sit for a few minutes, the issue seems to resolve. only once has the check engine light gone on. because the car will not accelerate this is causing a safety issue.

On [xxx], i purchased a 2016 hyundai tucson sport, at the landover-jaguar south hills dealer in canonsburg, pa. on [xxx] the “check engine” light came on. since i was 2 hours from home, i purchased a code reader to assess the issue. it read “a p0420 code”. i researched potential reasons for this code but returned the car to the dealer who performed additional checks and gave the car a “clean bill of health”. on [xxx], i was driving home from about 16 miles away and lost power. a slew of dash lights came on, and i was forced to pull over. i smelled something burning. as i stopped, the smoke from the engine became apparent. the car right behind me pulled up and asked if i knew my car was on fire. another bystander pulled over and extinguished the fire in my engine. this happened on one of the busier roads in the area and if the vehicle exploded it could have been much worse for all of us. this vehicle is currently sitting at bowser hyundai in pittsburgh and is available for inspection. this engine fire and fail is not a maintenance issue but is clearly a result of a manufacture issue. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? the airbag system, brake system, and hvac system (air conditioning and heating) appear to have malfunctioned. a dealer confirmed that the hvac system is defective, identifying a broken evaporator assembly and a faulty temperature door actuator. the vehicle is available for inspection upon request. how was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? the airbag safety light raises concerns about whether the airbags will deploy during an accident. the brake light error creates uncertainty about the reliability of the brake system. additionally, the defective hvac system is a significant safety hazard. the heater’s failure prevents the windshield from defogging, impairing visibility, particularly in cold or wet weather. this poses a serious risk while driving, especially in freezing temperatures. has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? yes, the hvac system defect has been confirmed by a dealer, who provided images and recommended replacing the evaporator assembly and temperature door actuator. independent mechanics have also observed the airbag and brake light errors but were unable to identify the underlying causes. has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, or others? the vehicle has been inspected by independent mechanics and one dealership but has not been evaluated by the manufacturer, police, or insurance representatives. were there any warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? the airbag safety light and brake light errors have been present since i acquired the vehicle. the hvac system began failing intermittently shortly thereafter, with the issue worsening over time.these unresolved issues continue to jeopardize the safety and reliability of the vehicle

All my doors stick and sometimes i have to fight with my car to even get a door open. also, when trying to accelerate sometimes my throttle response is slow and i will not move for a few seconds.

The windows do not roll up or down. this will jeopardize my safety because my vehicle would prevent me from being able from escaping through the window in an emergency. or a person that means me harm can pull down my window climb in and pull it back up and hide in my car till i return because i am unable to secure my vehile. the problem is common, we were told that hyundai tucsons often have a window issue. i origanly had one windoe with this issue and now 3 out of 4 windows can not automatically roll up or down. it has not been inspected yet. there were no indication prior that this would happen.

Rear passenger door won’t open from inside or outside. safety concern

The front passenger and rear window regulators failed within 1 month of each other without any warning or symptoms. after inspection, it was identified that the plastic window regulator was completely shattered within the door. there was no damage to my vehicle that could have caused this. with the window regulator not working, my windows were not able to be opened or closed. the front window regulator actually got stuck in a down position. after some additional research online, i found several others who have had the same issues with the window regulators on their 2016 hyundai tucsons. this is a safety hazard because if i were ever be in an accident or a place where i need to exit through my windows and they are unable to go up and down for a safe exit. i have spent over $1600 in repairs to fix an issue that is clearly a defective part in the windows.

The teeth within a spool in the window regulator easily strip out leaving the window unable to be opened or closed. this has happened on three out of four windows on my vehicle.

Vehicle has shown signs of engine failure for the past two years, all indicating impending need for engine replacement in alignment with engine recall that was issued for vehicle (customer case # [xxx]). vehicle has been seen for diagnostics related to this problem where both hyundai in fredericksburg as well as springfield virginia confirmed that the engine was failing. both dealerships refused to service car (which was under full warranty) because they were prioritizing cars who had already experienced full engine failure. dealership advised that they could do nothing per the manufacturer until the vehicle experienced full engine failure. they acknowledged that it was a safety risk to myself, passengers & other drivers. the engine has now completely failed, leaving me stranded on [xxx] in the cold winter months & having to pay to have the vehicle towed. it is apparent from my service history report that i took all due diligence in attempting to have hyundai attend to the engine of this vehicle while under warranty and they flat out refused, citing multiple different reasons. i am requesting a safety inspector come to investigate both the dealerships, the service report history, and the vehicle itself. my legal team is at this point just waiting for me to be offered engine replacement (out of pocket per hyundai) and once that transaction is complete we are fully prepared to file suit for negligence. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)

The exhaust manifold and turbocharger assembly have cracked, causing exhaust gases—including carbon monoxide—to leak into the cabin. this issue was confirmed by diagnostic testing at burns hyundai. the defective component is still installed on the vehicle and has been inspected upon request, costing me over $200 without any suggested reimbursement after i already told them the problem before testing. the cracked exhaust manifold allows carbon monoxide to enter the vehicle’s interior, posing a serious risk of carbon monoxide poisoning to both the driver and passengers. additionally, the vehicle’s engine performance has been negatively affected, which could lead to unexpected failures while driving. yes. burns hyundai conducted diagnostic testing and confirmed the issue, identifying cracks in both the exhaust manifold and turbocharger assembly. despite this confirmation, hyundai corporate has refused to cover the repair under warranty. the vehicle has been inspected and diagnosed by a hyundai dealership service center (burns hyundai), and the issue has been reported to hyundai corporate for review. no inspections have been conducted by law enforcement or insurance representatives at this time. yes. prior to the diagnosis, i experienced engine performance issues, including reduced power and inefficiencies, which i reported to burlington hyundai in 2021, when the vehicle was still under warranty. at that time, the exact cause was not properly addressed. the problem has since worsened, leading to the recent discovery of the cracked manifold. no specific dashboard warning lights were illuminated for this issue.

The front passenger window regulator failed in jan 2025. before the complete fail, the power window was becoming sluggish when lowered/raised. i just paid $1,000 to have the dealer repair. i have seen dozens of online items regarding the identical issue. i consider it a safety issue because of easy entry to the vehicle interior and contents, including inclement weather that can damage interior electrical components

I reported the vehicle to dealer for above oil consumption, which they confirmed with service check of oil level. vehicle often stammered and failed to accelerate upon purchase. this vehicle stammered and engine began to smoke. vehicle could started first, turned unit off. vehicle is being towed to shop for diagnostic results.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that while driving at undisclosed speeds, the transmission started slipping while accelerating. there were no warning lights illuminated. the contact stated that the failure was related to nhtsa campaign number: 16v628000 (power train, electrical system). the contact called an independent mechanic who provided a printout of a recall. the local dealer was not contacted. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not contacted. the failure mileage was approximately 108,000.

The door latch mechanisms are all faulty. i have read in many forums where this is a common issue with hyundai models. the door latch on the back passenger door will not operate from inside or outside. the other three doors must be pulled on repeatedly in order to gain access. this creates a very dangerous situation of entrapment if there car were to catch fire or be in an accident. it’s almost impossible to get into the car from any door. the issue isn’t a locking issue either, doors will eventually open after repeated attempts.

Window is stuck down. window does not roll up. the hyundai tucson doors are notorious for having problems from not unlocking, opening, to the windows not working. these are all safety hazards. the doors not unlocking or opening are covered under an extended warranty but the window issues, which are equally as problematic, have not been addressed and the dealership is price gouging customers for the fix.

The contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle shook abnormally with several unknown warning lights illuminated. the contact noticed an oil odor. the vehicle was driven to the residence. the contact's father, who is an independent mechanic, inspected the vehicle and diagnosed the vehicle with oil consumption and engine failure. the contact was advised that the engine needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the contact was advised to monitor the exhaust for smoke and add oil daily. in addition, two days later the contact attempted to start the vehicle, and the vehicle started after several attempts. the was an abnormal oil odor entering the vehicle through the vents. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was filed. the failure mileage was approximately 107,000.

Fuel injectors no warning…went to get breaks checked, while they were checking them the engine light turned on after that they couldn’t get my car to start again.

Passenger front airbag is faulty. dealer stated that there is no obvious reason why it would be damaged. there was a similar recall on these passenger airbags for a previous model.

While stopped,, with car powered both on and off, rear left door lock mechanism working but door will not open from the inside or the outside.

The passenger side rear door suddenly would not open from the inside or outside. the child lock was disengaged, and no amount of locking/unlocking would fix it. we were in the car and it worked normally, then when we arrived to our destination could not get my kids out. there is no damage to the door handle from the inside or outside. it happened out of nowhere. this is incredibly dangerous, as not only could i bit get my kids out quickly in an emergency, i also can’t let them out curbside, and am forced to pull them out of the back seat with cars flying by. i have major concerns with all of the remaining doors failing, and it seems like this is a chronic widespread issue with hyundai vehicles, and tucsons in particular. i’m fearful that the doors will just seize up and we won’t be able to get out of the car.

My 2016 hyundai tucson stumbles a lot upon acceleration from a stand still. sometimes while making a turn. a few times it put my daughter in dangerous situations. hesitating while acceleration though an intersection. it is very frightening. i took the vehicle to the dealer twice. once in july 2019 then again in october 2019. the first time they told me they had no idea what could be causing the vehicle to hesitate and stumble upon acceleration. they told me they had reset the computer on the car in hopes that it will fix the issue. then the second time they told me it may be my air filter and or my fuel injectors need cleaning. i declined both because the dealer who i bought the car from just had them cleaned and air filter was almost brand new. after trying to convince me that something else could be causing the car to hesitate he finally confessed that it was a transmission issue and that one other hyundai car had the same issue and they had no solution for the fix. they also said that they were waiting on hyundai to come up with a fix. in the mean time my daughter, who i bought the car for, continues to drive the car until hyundai recalls the car and have this problem taken care of.

Tl* the contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the rear driver’s door failed to unlock from inside or outside of the vehicle, while attempting to remove his daughter from of the vehicle. the contact climbed over the passenger’s seat to reach back and remove his daughter from the vehicle. the vehicle was taken to hyundai of paramus (234 e state rt 4, paramus, nj 07652, (201) 488-3322) where the rear driver’s door was inspected and the latch was replaced. the failure recurred 10 miles later with the driver’s side door latch failing to open. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and the driver’s side front door latch was repaired. the contact was concerned about taking the vehicle back to the same dealer. the manufacturer was notified of the failure however, no further assistance was provided. the failure mileage was approximately 70,000.

The door actuators stop working and you are not able to open the door using the inside or the outside door handles. you can hear them unlock, but the door still will not open. this is a huge safety concern if there were to be an emergency where the car needed to be evacuated. this happens when the car is stationary, whether it is off or the engine is running.

Just short of 63,000 miles, my key fob quit unlocking the front driver's door in it's normal sequence. i have to keep pressing "unlock" several times until the lock opens. the other doors seem responsive at this time. there have been times i have had to use the key. the safety of being able to quickly unlock my doors when approaching my car in my carport or in a public space is compromised. i did an online search and found many people complaining of the same or very similar circumstances on the identical make and model hyundai. it seems to be associated with the actuator. i have not taken my car to the shop yet, but wanted to add my experience to your database. apparently, this is a known issue by hyundai according to people writing about it on a popular automotive website and i am hoping that attention brought to this flaw will trigger a recall. i am fearful that the problem will spread to other doors or that i may be prevented from exiting my driver door when i need to get out of the car.

Rear passenger door will not open. it locks/unlocks without an issue, but the inside and outside door handles do not work. my child could be trapped in the car in an emergency. the vehicle was stationary.

Tl the contact owns a 2016 hyundai tucson. the contact stated that the passenger’s side rear door failed to open without warning. the vehicle was taken to ourisman hyundai (3516 laurel fort meade rd, laurel, md 20724, (301) 973-3359 to be diagnosed. the contact was informed that the door actuator fractured and needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 49,510.

Multiple sensors and lights on the dash are illuminated, including the airbags, brakes, traction control, hill assist, tire pressure, etc. i've been told that this is related to a vacuum pump issue. other hyundais are under recall for this same issue, but my vin does not show up as covered. this is an extreme hazard as the car is not functioning properly, and if the sensor are not functioning, properly, there is no guarantee that the airbags or other safety systems will function as intended with this underlying problem. the recall needs to be expanded to include all of the 1.6 tucsons, as it's obviously an issue across the manufacturer and multiple models. this problem happens when the vehicle is in motion, and these systems engage randomly causing the vehicle to function poorly. additionally this affects emissions.

Received recall letter. called dealer where purchased and spoke with service department. they said they needed to order the part (for this very important recall where i was advised not to drive the car) and they would call when part arrived. that was on 3/22/2021. they advised it would take 2 weeks. today is 4/29/2021 and i have not heard from them. i called the service department and was placed on hold. they came back online and asked if i wanted to leave my name and number and someone would call me back. i said "no" because i knew no one would call me back and was placed on hold again. during this time frame i have received repeated mail from hyundai wanting me to trade in my car for a new one. they again came on the line and said "no one was available to take my call". i hung up. so now i have a vehicle i was advised not to drive and no way to have the recall taken care of.

Rear vehicle doors would not open either from the inside or the outside, progressive in nature over the course of several months. at the time of repair, the door wouldn't open. my elderly mother with limited mobility was stuck in the back of the car for over an hour until i was able to get the car door open. if my mother was in an emergent medical situation, i don't know how we would have gotten her out. i can't imagine if a mother with young children and car seats would manage in a safety situation. this could be a situation between life and death. the hyundai dealership was only minimally supportive of this. it is not acceptable to pay $898.23 to be able to open and close the doors on a car that is less than 5 years old. this is a huge safety situation that has been reported over and over again across many car websites. we have been a longtime hyundai customer, and find the lack of recall for such a glaring safety situation unacceptable. at some point, someone will lose their life because of this. i strongly urge that this matter be looked into in depth, and that this would result in a safety recall. i have the documents from the dealership for the repair to the doors that specifically state their concerns for this being a safety issue. being able to get into and out of a car safely is not a luxury, it is a necessity. to pay nearly 1,000 dollars to do so is not acceptable, and a problem trust with hyundai products. i strongly urge your organization to look into the huge and growing number of hyundai tuscon suvs that have this problem, and to initiate a safety recall.

Yes, i have a 2016 hyundai tucson. in 2019 i had a problem with my door opening on my driver side. dealership did diagnostic and found out the door actuator was bad and they replaced under hyundai warranty. 3 weeks later the same thing happened to my passenger rear door. this time, the door would not open at all! from the inside or the outside. it was completely stuck shut. a huge safety issue that could lead to a fatality depending on the situation of the vehicle. again, took to the dealership and they did the diagnostic finding the same issue as before and replaced the door actuator. now it is april of 2021 and i am having the same issue with my passenger door. same issue, but now my vehicle is out of warranty and the dealership said i will have to pay for the total repair out of pocket. this needs to be a recall and hyundai should be responsible for the cost.

Neither back door will open from inside or outside. my driver door handle takes two pulls to open after being unlocked. my second row is essentially non-usable. i have seen hundreds of complaints about this issue with hyundai's yet have not seen a recall for them. this is a huge safety hazard.

Driver side will not open was unlock it is a safety matter you can not get into your car if your life is threatened or child is side you can not get door open . you can here it u lock but just pulling handle with out enter. i’m not the only one having this problem and company want fix this safety matter a recall need to be done

The rear passenger door will not open posing a safety concern. many other owners of hyundai tucson owners have experienced the same issues. hyundai should be responsible for repair of this issue.

Both my front and rear drivers side door have been failing to open on my 2016 hyundai tucson. recently my rear drivers side door has completly failed to open (inside and outside) leaving me with one door to access my child in the backseat. i have to pull my drivers side door handle multiple times in order for it to "catch" and open. i took the car to lithia hyundai of fresno and they advised me that i need to repair both actuators and it is not considered a "safety issue" more of a "wear and tear" issue. this is a huge safety issue especially if you have kids and need to get out in an emergency.

The door actuators on the hyundai keep failing which makes it so the doors cannot be opened. i’ve already replaced 2 and had 2 more go out this past week. this is very dangerous in the case of an accident. hyundai will not acknowledge it is a widespread problem.

Back passenger door lock issue. door won’t open from either inside the car or outside the car. this is a safety hazard. i could not get my granddaughter out of the car. the door would not open.

When parked with either the engine running or not, front passenger door requires repeated pulls on exterior handle to open an unlocked door. door opens fine using interior handle. this problem began approximately one month ago and now the driver's door is exhibiting the same symptoms. both doors open fine from interior handles but require multiple (up to 5-6) pulls to open with exterior handles. this is a serious safety issue and it is troublesome that the driver side door is now exhibiting the same symptoms. upon checking online, i see posts describing similar issues with 2015/2016 tucsons.

Multiple doors unable to open when manually unlocked, from the outside handle and also from the inside handle. this is a major safety problem.

Passenger front and driver rear doors do not open to get in or out of vehicle. you get stuck in the car and cannot exit out these doors! real safety hazard if you get stuck in the car.

3 of the 4 doors do not open either from inside or outside , i get scared now not knowing if i’m going to get trapped in an emergency situation

Right rear passenger door latch would not open from inside or outside. now the left rear passenger door latch will not open from inside or outside. the driver door does not open always when using the key fob even though the batteries have been replaced. this is a serious safety issue and should have a recall on the door latch assembly mechanisms. i have a 2016 hyundaitucson ltd but am reading on the internet that many 2015-2017 hyundai owners are having the same issue. my grandchildren are at risk in the backseat! please check into this issue quickly.

Out of nowhere, the rear passenger door refuses to open. the remote can lock/unlock the locking knob, but the door is impossible to open from inside or outside. the vehicle was in a stationary state. this is a well-known problem amongst 2016 tucson owners. please refer to two online forums. https://www.hyundai-forums.com/threads/rear-passenger-door-wont-open.603329/ https://www.cargurus.com/cars/discussion-t57988_ds1084478 also, in korea, the same vehicle is on recall for the door latch problem. i believe this is a serious safety issue because if the door does not operate in case of emergency, how can somebody exit from the car to safety? ## #vpic# 1 - check digit (9th position) does not calculate properly #vpic#

Right rear door stopped working. the door does not open from the outside or inside even when unlocked.

The rear passenger side door would not open from the inside or outside. it started out as an intermittent problem where the door would not open on the first or second try but would eventually open. it quickly became a permanent problem where the door would not open at all. this is a huge safety issue as i have 2 young children in car seats in the back seat and need to be able to open both rear doors to get them in and out of the vehicle.

Our car front driver door will not unlock from the outside with the remote fob or the door handle. the only way to open the door is to use the handle on the inside of the door. this happens continually now & started happening about 2 months ago for no identifiable reason. when approaching the car to go for a drive, we have to open the front passenger side door first & reach across to the driver side & unlock from the interior. no other way to do it. we searched online and this seems to be a very common issue with hyundai suvs, with other instances of doors not even being able to be opened from the interior either. it looks like there is a malfunctioning door "actuator". some cases have had to completely destroy the interior door panel to be able to access the mechanisms of the door to replace the actuator. since it is a very common problem, and a safety issue if people cannot open doors from inside or out, this should be a safety recall. really this is a serious safety issue if you cannot open your door to get out of the car in case of an emergency. please evaluate this asap & have hyundai issue a recall.

The rear passenger door wouldn't open either from inside or outside. this is a known issue and must be on a recall list. hyundai tucson produced between 2015 and 2016 have this issue and in korea, hyundai korea has been repairing this problem at no charge. (see below korean site) http://www.consumerwide.com/news/articleview.html?idxno=37459 hyundai usa should do the same. this is a safety issue!

The rear passenger door will not open from the interior or the exterior. it was parked and i tried to open the door and it will not move. this is a huge safety issue because you cannot get out that door. this happened to 2 other doors also. one was covered because it was still under warranty, it is now past my warranty.

The driver side front door will not open from the outside after it has been locked and unlocked with key fob or key. the vehicle was parked and locked with key fob then would not open. you have to climb through the passenger side and open from inside.

When trying to get into my car, i unlock my doors. with all doors unlocked i try to enter the driver door from the outside. it takes multiple pools on the handle for the drive door to get the latch inside the door to release and open the door. my door becomes stuck and i am unable to get inside my vehicle. this can be a potential safety issue, in dark parking lots, unsafe locations, preventing me from getting in my vehicle. i took my vehicle to hyundai dealer. they states nothing is wrong with my door and it works fine. this was approx apr in 2020. beginning this week my passenger side front door will now also not open from the outside, even if my door is unlocked. no matter how many times i pull the handle the passenger door wont release from the outside. i have to open the door from the inside.

The rear passenger side door has stopped working suddenly, the vehicle was stationary and parked, and after working correctly just minutes before, now it won't open from either inside or outside the car, it is stuck in the closed position and it is very unsafe as that is the sidewalk facing door which won't open forcing people to exit on the street side. this seems to be a widespread problem affecting many 2016 tucson customers. https://www.cargurus.com/cars/discussion-t57988_ds1084478

When driving at a slow speed, such as in a line of cars going through a drive thru, the vehicle begins to skip. almost hopping along rather than slowly moving. i have observed it happening in both eco mode and regular driving mode. this is not a constant but frequent. i also have instances of where it doesn’t pick up speed and takes time to shift gears. i think it may be the transmission skipping and not shifting gears appropriately causing it to hop or jump. at all time the care was in motion and on city streets never on a highways.
