SUSPENSION
COMPLETE RUSTING OUT OF REAR SUBFRAME ASSEMBLY AND ATTACHED COMPONENTS THAT RESULTED IN FAILURE OF THIS COMPONENT TO ALLOW ME TO MAINTAIN PROPER OF VEHICLE. THE REAR END OF MY TUCSON BEGAN TO SWAY VIOLENTLY. I SEARCHED THE INTERNET FOR THIS ISSUE AND SAW THAT HYUNDAI DID HAVE A RECALL FOR THE RUST OUT OF THIS COMPONENT ON CERTAIN VEHICLE AND THAT OTHER TUCSON OWNERS HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE. I TOOK IT TO A HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP, THEY SUBMITTED PICTURES AND AN ESTIMATE TO HYUNDAI. HYUNDAI REFUSES TO REPAIR THE REAR SUSPENSION. THEY KNOW THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH THESE COMPONENTS DURING THESE YEARS.

CAR STOPPED WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND SHUT DOWN. BITS OF METAL ALL THROUGH THE ENGINE AND OIL PAN. HYUNDAI TECH SAYS THAT IT IS NORMAL AND DIDNT CAUSE THE ISSUE BUT OTHER MECHANICS SAY IT CAUSES CAM SENSOR, CAM SHAFT AND CRANK SENSOR AND SHAFT FAILURES. TOOK CAR IN FOR THE RECALL THAT IS ALSO AFFECTED BY THIS AND TOLD OH WELL.

ENGINE
MY CAR HAS 20,000 MILES ON IT. 2 MONTHS AGO AROUND 18,000 MILES MY CAR STARTED TO HESITATE DURING ACCELERATION. IT STARTED AS ONLY SOMETIMES. NOW IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT . WHEN IT IS STOPPED AND I PUSH ON THE GAS TO GO IT HESITATES. THE RPMS SHOOT UP TO 5-6 THEN IT GOES. THIS IS DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE CROSSING SEVERAL LANES OF TRAFFIC. ALSO WHEN IN MOTION AND YOU NEED TO ACCELERATE IT WILL HESITATE AS WELL. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AS IT'S UNDER WARRANT AND WAS TOLD IT'S THE DCT AND MANY PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED. AND IT'S NORMAL. I DISAGREE BECAUSE IF IT WAS NORMAL THEN IT WOULD HAVE DONE THIS WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED THE CAR.

STEERING, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
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

MY PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE CONSISTENT WITH OTHER DRIVERS. I WAS DRIVING HOME AT NIGHT WHEN I TURNED A CORNER AND THE VEHICLE JERKED AND THEN DIED. NO WARNING SIGNALS CAME ON. NO LEAKING FLUIDS. VEHICLE WOULDN'T START UP ANYMORE. BOUGHT A NEW BATTERY AND STILL UNABLE TO START THE CAR. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A MECHANIC TESTED THE ALTERNATOR AND STARTER AND NEITHER ONE WAS THE PROBLEM. THE MECHANIC DIAGNOSED IT AS A LOCKED UP MOTOR. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO.

POWER TRAIN
CAR FAILS TO ACCELERATE MORE THAN THE SPEED OF MAYBE ROLLING THROUGH A STOP SIGN WHEN YOU ARE AT A STOP SIGN YOU CANNOT ACCELERATE AND IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO PEOPLE BEHIND YOU THAT WILL SMASH INTO YOU AND THEN YOU HAVE TO FLOOR THE GAS PEDAL AND WORRY ABOUT CRASHING INTO SOMEBODY IN FRONT OF YOU. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THERE IS NO PROBLEM AND THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING THEREFORE THEY CAN'T FIX IT. I AM MOVING TO FLORIDA WHERE IT IS HOT AND HUMID ALL THE TIME WHICH IS SEEMS THAT THAT IS WHEN THE PROBLEM HAPPENS. I WOULD LIKE A NEW VEHICLE IF THEY CAN'T FIX IT I FIND THIS COMPLETELY RIDICULOUS AND I CAN'T BELIEVE THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL ON IT YET AS THERE ARE MANY MANY COMPLAINTS THROUGHOUT THE INTERNET
