ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
WHEN TRYING TO TURN OFF THE TUCSON (VEHICLE HAS PUSH BUTTON START) TO REFILL THE GAS TANK, THE ENGINE DIDN'T TURN OFF. WHILE THE ENGINE WAS ON, IT RESTARTED AGAIN THE ENGINE, ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS TURNED ON IN THE DASHBOARD AND THE ENGINE STARTED TO VIBRATE VIOLENTLY WITH RPM'S AROUND 500 RPM. SOME SECONDS LATER THE ENGINE RPM STABILIZED (NORMAL IDLE). I PRESSED THE PUSH BUTTON AGAIN AND THE ENGINE TURNED OFF SUCCESSFULLY. WENT TO THE DEALER BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE ISSUE. NO CHANGES WERE MADE TO THE CAR.

POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
THERE HAVE BEEN COUNTLESS TIMES, THAT OUR 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON HAS HAD TROUBLE ACCELERATING IN LOW GEAR, WHETHER COMING TO A STOP AT A STOP SIGN OR RED LIGHT AND THEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE OR WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE FROM A SLOW SPEED (5-10MPH). MOST OFTEN TIMES, WHEN PRESSING THE GAS PEDDLE TO ACCELERATE IT IS VERY DELAYED, ALMOST NO ACCELERATION RESPONSE FOR ABOUT 5 SECONDS, AND THEN IT IS VERY JERKY GETTING INTO GEAR AT THAT POINT. I FINALLY HAD ENOUGH OF THIS WHEN MY WIFE AND I CAME EXTREMELY CLOSE TO GETTING REAR ENDED (THE VEHICLE BEHIND US CAME SCREECHING TO A HALT) AS THERE WAS NO ACCELERATION RESPONSE WHEN I PULLED ONTO A 50MPH ROAD AFTER STOPPING AT A STOP SIGN. THE 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE UNTIL THIS ACCELERATION ISSUE IS FIXED. I HAVE DONE RESEARCH AND SEEN THOUSANDS OF OTHER COMPLAINTS ON THIS SAME ISSUE FOR THIS SAME EXACT CAR. FURTHER, HYUNDAI HAD A RECALL FOR THE SAME ISSUE ON THE 2016 MODEL, BUT THEY DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE FOR THE 2017'S. I IMPLORE THE NHTSA AND HYUNDAI TO MAKE THIS A RECALL! DO THE RIGHT THING FOR YOUR CUSTOMERS HYUNDAI AND SAVE PEOPLE FROM SOME BAD ACCIDENTS AND POTENTIAL LOSS OF LIFE.

TUCSON RECALL: THE CAR SEIZES WHILE IN MOTION, AND REVS IN MOTION WITHOUT THE DRIVER PUSHING THE ACCELERATOR/GAS PEDAL - MEANING THE DRIVER EITHER IS COASTING OR HAS A STEADY PRESSURE ON THE GAS PEDAL, AND THE SEIZING AND REVING OF THE CAR IS MORE THAN AND NOT EQUAL TO THE PRESSURE BEING APPLIED TO THE PEDAL - SO THE CAR IS "RACING" EVEN THOUGH THE DRIVER IS NOT INCREASING PRESSURE ON THE GAS PEDAL. THE CAR ALSO STALLS WHEN FIRST STARTED, UNLESS THE DRIVER REVS THE ENGINE USING THE GAS PEDAL IN PARK. THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING OVER THE LAST YEAR - DESPITE THE CAR BEING SERVICED EVERY 3,000 MILES - SERVICE PROVIDER CANNOT PROVIDE DIAGNOSIS OR SOLUTION.

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR DOWN A BUSIER ROAD WHEN THE ENGINE HAD SHUT OFF AND THE CAR HAD STOPPED RUNNING. I COULD NOT GET IT JUMPED OR STARTED. I HAD NOT HEARD ANYTHING ABOUT A RECALL UNTIL I LOOKED IT UP. I HADN'T RECEIVED ANY LETTERS IN THE MAIL STATED THE RECALL ON THE CAR OR I WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN DRIVING IT. THAT WAS THE LAST WEEK OF APRIL. I AM NOW GETTING FRUSTRATED BECAUSE I'M MAKING PAYMENTS ON A CAR THAT WON'T START AND I CAN'T DRIVE. IT'S BEEN OVER A MONTH AND I HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING.

POWER TRAIN
TRANSMISSION FAILS TO ENGAGE ON SOME OCCASIONS WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP OR ACCELERATING INTO A TURN AT AN INTERSECTION. ACTS AS IF THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT KNOW WHAT GEAR TO ENGAGE. DANGEROUS WHEN ATTEMPTING A LEFT TURN AS YOU STALL PART WAY THRU THE TURN. HAVE HAD CAR BACK TO DEALER TWICE AND THEY CLAIM NO PROBLEM. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A LEGITIMATE SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS INVESTIGATING AS I SEE MULTIPLE SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON YOUR WEBSITE AND OTHER INTERNET SITES.
