ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
WHILE DRIVING I HAVE NOTICED THAT WHEN I BEGIN TO ACCELERATE AFTER A COMPLETE STOP MY CAR JERKS FORWARD AND DOESN'T CATCH. IT'S ALMOST AS IF THE VEHICLE STALLS BEFORE MOVING FORWARD, THIS HAPPENS WHEN MOVING FORWARD OR REVERSING FROM A COMPLETE STOP. I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO GET A RESPONSE TO THE ISSUE FROM THE DEALERSHIP THOUGH I'VE LET THEM KNOW THERE IS AN ISSUE MULTIPLE TIMES OVER THE PAST 3 MONTHS.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION (DCT) / 1.6T ENGINE START FROM STOP ACCELERATION STUTTERING, STALLING OCCURS FROM INITIAL TAKE OFFS, WHILE IDLING IN STOP/GO TRAFFIC CREATES POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS DRIVE/PASSENGER SITUATION IN TRAFFIC ESPECIALLY WHEN CROSSING TRAFFIC PATTERNS AND LANE MERGING/PASSING. ISSUE HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF HYUNDAI CORPORATE AND TWO LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALERSHIPS. BOTH PARTIES INDICATE LACK OF KNOWLEDGE ON HOW TO PROPERLY DRIVE DCT TRANSMISSION AND PROVIDED BOTH VIDEO AND WRITTEN TRAINING PACKAGES. BOTH TRAINING MECHANISMS FAILED TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. SUPPOSED SOFTWARE UPDATES BY THE LEASING DEALERSHIP FAILED TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE ALSO. ISSUE IS STILL ACTIVE AND LATEST VISIT TO DEALERSHIP FAILED TO FIND ANY ISSUES WITH NO REPAIRS OR SOFTWARE UPDATES TAKING PLACE. SENIOR TECHNICIAN INDICATED HYUNDAI LEADERSHIP AT CORPORATE ARE ACUTELY AWARE OF ISSUE BUT CHOOSING TO NOT ACT ACCORDINGLY/APPROPRIATELY.

ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
MY VEHICLE SEEMS TO STALL/HESITATE WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A FULL STOP. I HAVE THE 1.6 TURBO AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WHICH I UNDERSTAND HAS A SOFTWARE GLITCH THAT CAN DELAY ACCELERATION FROM WHEN THE CAR IS STATIONARY. THIS OCCURS QUITE OFTEN WHEN PROCEEDING WHEN LIGHT TURNS GREEN--DANGEROUS WHEN MAKING A LEFT TURN & IN A PRECARIOUS POSITION MULTIPLE TIMES WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC. BROUGHT CAR TO DEALER W/COMPLAINT BUT THEY DID NOT MAKE ANY ADJUSTMENTS OR CORRECTIONS. TOLD ME TO "LIVE WITH IT." UNACCEPTABLE! PLEASE HELP.

POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
TRAFFIC WAS CLEAR AND ATTEMPTED TO TURN LEFT. WHILE DOING SO, THE VEHICLE ABRUPTLY STALLED AND I COULD NOT ACCELERATE TO MY LANE, CAUSING BRIEF PANIC SINCE I WAS IN THE VEHICLE WITH MY BABY AND A FREIGHTLINER WAS NOW APPROACHING. THE VEHICLE RESPONDED IN THE SAME MANNER WHILE MY HUSBAND DROVE IT SEVERAL DAYS LATER. ADDITIONALLY, THERE WAS A HORRENDOUS SMELL COMING FROM THE VEHICLE AS WE TRAVELED IN TRAFFIC AT ABOUT 3MPH OR LESS. MY HUSBAND AND I WERE ON EDGE AND JUST WANTED TO GET HOME SAFELY WITHOUT ANY FURTHER ISSUES WITH THE TUCSON. WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM HYUNDAI OF LONGVIEW ON NOVEMBER 29, 2017.

POWER TRAIN
VEHICLE HESITATES FROM A STOP WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE. ENGINE JUST REVS AND THEN LURCHES FORWARD WHEN TRANSMISSION FINAL ENGAGES. THIS CAN TAKE SEVERAL SECONDS. HYUNDAI STATES THAT THIS AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHOULD BE DRIVEN LIKE AN MANUAL TRANSMISSION. THIS IS AN IGNORANT EXCUSE TO HIDE A PROBLEM THAT THEY ARE WELL AWARE OF. THIS IS HAPPENING TO SO MANY PEOPLE SO WHY WILL THE NHTSA NOT HOLD HYUNDAI ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS DEFECT IN THE DRIVETRAIN? I SPECIFICALLY ASKED OUR SALESPERSON IF THE ISSUE HAD BEEN WORKED OUT BEFORE WE SIGNED AND HE STATED THAT THE VEHICLES NO LONGER HAD THE PROBLEM. IF HYUNDAI DENIES THERE IS A PROBLEM WHEY DID THE SALESPERSON ACKNOWLEDGE THIS TO ME? THE ISSUE HAS HAPPENED OVER 20 TIMES TO MY WIFE AND I IN THE PAST YEAR AND THE VEHICLE HAS 10,500 MILES ON IT. HYUNDAI STATES THEY IT IS PERFORMING AS DESIGNED AND CLOSED MY CASE. THEY DIDN'T EVEN OFFER TO HAVE ME TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE. THIS IS BECAUSE THEY KNOW THERE ISN'T A FIX AND IS A POTENTIALLY FATAL FLAW. WE HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT NUMEROUS TIMES BECAUSE OF NON RESPONSIVENESS FROM THE TRANSMISSION. PLEASE HOLD HYUNDAI ACCOUNTABLE FOR REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION. IF A DIFFERENT TRANSMISSION WILL NOT WORK WITH THE CURRENT ENGINE THEN THEY SHOULD BUY THE VEHICLE BACK OR TRADE WITHOUT A LOSS. THE DATE FIELD BELOW ONLY ALLOWS FOR ONE DATE? THIS HAS HAPPENED OVER 20 TIMES AS MENTIONED ABOVE.

MY MOTHER IN LAW BOUGHT A 2017 HYUNDAI TUSCON AND IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE DUAL CLUTCH SYSTEM THAT REQUIRED A 41,000 UNIT RECALL FOR THE 2016 TUSCON MODEL. SHE HAS BROUGHT IT INTO THE DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES DESCRIBING THE SAME ISSUE AND SHOWING CAR FORUMS WITH SIMILAR ISSUES AND WITHOUT A SOFTWARE FIX. I'D LIKE TO HAVE THE NHTSA HAVE A LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE IF POSSIBLE PLEASE AND SEE ABOUT ANOTHER RECALL FOR THE SAME ISSUE IN THE NEW MODEL YEAR AS IT HAS CLEARLY NOT BEEN FIXED. I'M HAPPY TO PROVIDE MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE ISSUE.

POWER TRAIN
VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS 25,XXX MILES ON IT. IT HAS THE 1.6L TURBO ENGINE WITH DCT (DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION). IT IS VERY UNPREDICTABLE IN REGARD TO MAKING A SMOOTH START FROM STANDSTILL. THE IS CONSIDERABLE LAG AND JERKING BEFORE THE VEHICLE WILL RESPOND WITH FORWARD MOTION. SOMETIMES, JUST RELEASING THE BRAKE AT A STOP, THE VEHICLE WILL BUCK AND JERK WITHOUT EVEN TOUCHING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL.THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AS IT IS UNPREDICTABLE ON THE SEVERITY AND WHEN IT WILL OCCUR. TAKING THE CAR TO THE DEALER WAS NOT OF ANY HELP. THEY PERFORMED SCANS AND SAID EVERYTHING WAS "NORMAL". THEY GAVE ME A PAPER DESCRIPTION ON HOW THE DCT OPERATES BUT THAT DOES NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THEY BASICALLY SAID THAT'S THE WAY IT IS, JUST GET USED TO IT. PERFORMING A GOGGLE SEARCH YIELDS MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS. HYUNDAI HAS NOT OWNED UP TO THIS PROBLEM AS FAR AS I CAN TELL. PERHAPS IF ENOUGH OWNERS REPORT THIS COMMON PROBLEM, HYUNDAI WILL BE FORCED TO PERFORM A RECALL WITH A SOLUTION TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN NOTICED CONTINUALLY ON AN INTERMITTENT BASIS SINCE OCT OF 2018.

I HAVE HAD THE CAR ONE YR. AND HAVE HAD AN ONGOING ACCELERATION ISSUE. IT IS BECOMING MORE FREQUENT AND SCARY. IT HESITATES TERRIBLY UPON ACCELERATION WHETHER IN REGULAR MODE OR SPORT. THE VEHICLE HESITATES FROM A STANDSTILL AND WHILE MOVING. BELOW IT ASKS FOR A DATE WHEN THIS HAPPENED BUT IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME. I USED TO OWN A VW CC WHICH HAD A DUAL CLUTCH AND NEVER HAD THIS ISSUE.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I HAVE OWNED MY 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON SINCE 10/20/17. IN THE LAST YEAR I HAVE HAD IT AT THE DEALERSHIP 3X FOR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. TWICE MY VEHICLE HAD PERFORMANCE ISSUES WHILE ENTERING THE HIGHWAY AND ACCELERATION. IT IS LIFE ENDANGERING. WHEN ACCELERATING ONTO THE HIGHWAY, THE ENGINE LOSES SPEED. THE RPM GAUGE STARTS GOING WACKY, OFF THE CHARTS. IT WILL REV TO 5 RPM BACK DOWN TO 3 RPM AND BACK & FORTH. WHEN THE FOOT IS ON THE GAS PEDDLE TRYING TO INCREASE TO HIGHWAY SPEED, THE ENGINE WILL GO TO 45 MPH. WHEN ONE A HIGHWAY WHERE THE SPEED LIMIT IS 70 MPH, IT BECOMES LIFE THREATENING. WHEN I FINALLY REACHED A SPEED OF 70, IT WOULD GO FOR A SHORT TIME AND THEN DECREASE TO 50 MPH. VERY SCARY. TWICE IT WAS IN SERVICE FOR THE SAME PERFORMANCE ISSUE . THE 2ND TIME THEY REPLACED BOOST SENSOR RANGE. IT WORKS OK NOW. HOWEVER, THE SHIFTING OF THE TRANSMISSION IS HARD AND SEEMS TO SHIFT IMPROPERLY. IT TOO IS TIED TO THE ACCELERATION. HYUNDAI THAT IS THE NATURAL PERFORMANCE ON THE ENGINE & TRANSMISSION. THE LAST CHECK ENGINE WAS AN ALTERNATOR FAILURE. I HAVE OWNED 3 HYUNDAI'S. I HAVE HELPED MY DAUGHTER BUY HER 2 HYUNDAI'S. MY MOTHER AS WELL. I HAVE NEVER SEEN THESE KIND OF ISSUES. ALSO THE NATURAL HYDRAULIC CLOSING ON THE BACK DOOR IS A REAL SAFETY HAZARD. ONE DAY THE DOOR STARTED CLOSING WHILE MY BODY WAS HALF INSIDE. THERE SHOULD BE A SENSOR TO DETECT WHEN THERE IS AN OBJECT IN THE WAY. THAT TOO IS CAUSED FOR ALARM IN SAFETY. THESE 2 ISSUES THAT I HAVE WRITTEN ABOUT CAN & WILL CAUSE DEATH.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY/WIPER
SINCE SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASE, THE VEHICLE'S BACKUP CAMERA HAS EXPERIENCED BLACKING OUT AFTER THE INITIALIZATION BLACKOUT WITH REGULAR FREQUENCY. WHEN PUTTING THE CAR IN REVERSE THE SCREEN INITIALLY SHOWS A BLACK SCREEN UNTIL THE CAMERA INTIALIZES. THEN THE PICTURE OF BEHIND THE VEHICLE SHOWS, FOLLOWED BY THE BACKUP GUIDE LINES. WITH THE VEHICLE IN MOTION IN REVERESE THE CAMERA WILL AGAIN PERIODICALLY TURN BLACK OBSTRUCTING THE VIEW OF THE DRIVER. THE VEHCILE HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN MULTIPLE TIMES FOR REPAIR BUT THE SERVICE DEPARTEMNT FREQUENTLY SAYS THEY CANNOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE. AFTER GETTING HYUNDAI NORTH AMERICA INVOLVED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TOOK IT IN AGAIN. THIS TIME WE WERE ABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE. THE REAR CAMERA WAS REPLACED BUT THIS DID NOT RESOLVE THE CONCERN. UPON RETURN TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT INCLUDING AN OPEN TICKET WITH HYUNDAI'S TECHNICAL SERVICE LINE, THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT THOUGHT THEY HAD REPLICATED THE ISSUE BUT ONLY SAW THE INITIALIZATION BLACK OUT AT WHICH POINT THEY CLAIMED THIS IS AS "WORKS AS DESIGNED". THIS WAS NOT THE ISSUE, THE ISSUE IS ONCE THE SYSTEM HAS LOADED AND THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION IT BLACKS OUT CAUSING A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN BACKING OUT ONTO STREETS AND IN BUSY PARKING LOTS.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE HEADLIGHT SYSTEM IN THIS VEHICLE AT LOW AND HIGH BEAM CASTS A SHADOW ABOUT 100 FEET IN FRONT. THIS CAUSES A SEVERE BLIND SPOT IN FRONT OF THE DRIVER. IN RAINY WEATHER IT IS DOUBLY HARD TO SEE WHAT ISSUES FACE THE DRIVER. IN FACT I ALMOST HIT SOMEONE WALKING ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD IN RAINY WEATHER BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT VISIBLE UNTIL THEY WERE INSIDE THE 100 FEET. THE LIGHTING SYSTEM MUST BE REPLACED AS THE DEALER HAS ADVISED THERE IS NO ADJUSTMENTS THEY CAN MAKE TO OVERCOME THIS ISSUE. THERE HAVE BEEN MANY COMPLAINTS TO THE DEALER ABOUT IT ACCORDING TO HIM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHILE STOPPED AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS, THE RPM REVVED UP AND THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY ACCELERATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HENDERSON HYUNDAI SUPERSTORE (460 N BOULDER HWY, HENDERSON, NV 89015, (702) 766-6838) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE TRANSMISSION OPERATED AS INTENDED AND SUCH WAS THE CHARACTERISTIC OF THE TRANSMISSION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED.

ENGINE BOGS DOWN AND LOOSES POWER WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP. RANDOM. AFTER SEVERAL SECONDS IT RECOVERS AND IS FINE FOR A RANDOM AMOUNT OF TIME. IT IS DANGEROUS AS SOME OF THE TIMES I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO MERGE INTO HEAVY TRAFFIC AND IT BOGGED DOWN. SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAYS HYUNDAI KNOWS OF THE ISSUE. MANY COMPLAINTS BUT NO FIX.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
I'M WRITING THIS IN REGARD TO THE ISSUE I AM HAVING WITH OUR TUCSON WE BOUGHT NEW ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO. FROM EARLY ON IT SEEMED THE TRANSMISSION LOSES POWER/ CHUGS. HYUNDAI SENT OUT A SURVEY ABOUT A MONTH AFTER WE BOUGHT THE CAR AND I STATED MY ISSUES THEN. MY WIFE HAS HAD IT IN THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THIS LOOKED AT NUMEROUS OF TIMES JUST TO BE TOLD THEY RESET THE TRANSMISSION, CAN'T FIND THE ISSUE OR HYUNDAI IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND LOOKING INTO IT. BUT LOOKING IN TO THIS ONLINE SEEMS THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR QUITE SOME TIME. THIS ISSUE IS A SAFETY CONCERN AS IT LOSES POWER/ CHUGS WHEN TURNING LEFT IN TO ONCOMING TRAFFIC OR WHEN PASSING SOMEONE. AT THIS POINT SEEMS HYUNDAI USA IS GIVING US (AND OTHERS ACCORDING TO ONLINE) THE RUN AROUND. I WOULD LIKE TO GET THIS ISSUE RESOLVED QUICKLY.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
VEHICLE FREQUENTLY, INTERMITTENTLY, STALLS DURING TAKE OFF FROM A STOP. WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP SIGN OR TRAFFIC LIGHT VEHICLE WILL SIMPLY ROLL AS IF IT IS FREELY ROLLING IN NEUTRAL BUT IS NOT RECEIVING ANY POWER OR ACCELERATION FROM THE ENGINE FOR APPROXIMATELY 3 TO 5 SECONDS BEFORE ENGINE/DRIVETRAIN ENGAUGES AND VEHICLE ACCELERATES. THIS CREATES AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD WHEN YOU HAVE THE VEHICLE IN AN INTERSECTION AND ACCELERATE TO MAKE A LEFT TURN IN A GAP IN TRAFFIC AND END STUCK IN THE INTERSECTION OR IN FRONT OF AN ONCOMING VEHICLE BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS ONLY ROLLING AND NOT ACCELERATING. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN REPORTED TO HYUNDAI USA CORPORATE WHO HAS CHOSEN NOT OFFER ANY REMEDY AND HAS IT STATED TO ME THIS IS A "CHARACTERISTIC OF MY VEHICLE.". HYUNDAI USA HAS CONTINUALLY REFERRED ME BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP, WHO DOES NOT HAVE A FIX FOR THIS ISSUE. HYUNDAI USA HAS EVEN PLACE THE BLAME FOR THIS ISSUE ON THE DEALERSHIP. HOWEVER THE ISSUE HERE IS THAT HYUNDAI USA ENGINEERS HAVE NOT ADMITTED TO HAVING THIS PROBLEM OR CREATED A FIX TO THIS PROBLEM TO ROLL OUT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO ALLOW THEM TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM. THIS IDENTICAL ISSUE HAS BEEN REPORTED AND ISSUED AS A RECALL IN PRIOR MODELS OF THIS VEHICLE, YET HYUNDAI REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING ON THIS MODEL

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE BRIGHT LIGHT / TURN SIGNAL ARM HAS AN OFF..AUTO..ON ROTATING END THAT CONTROLS THE HEADLIGHTS/DASH/BRIGHT-DIM CONTROL. WHEN THE LIGHTS ARE ON BRIGHT YOU HAVE TO PULL THE SWITCH ARM TO DIM THE LIGHTS. THE TROUBLE IS THE ROTATING END MOVES FROM AUTO TO OFF, SHUTTING ALL THE LIGHT DASH ETC OFF. SINCE YOU ARE DRIVING AT 55 TO 75 MPH AND ALL THE LIGHTS GO OFF LEAVING YOU MOVING HIGH SPEED IN THE DARK HYUNDAI IS ENDANGERING MY LIFE AND THE LIVES OF THE PASSENGERS INTENTIONALL BECAUSE OF THE POOR INCOMPETANT DESIGN. THEY SHOULD RE DESIGN THE SWITCH ARM AND REMOVE THE LIGHT SWITCH FROM THE END OF THE TURN SIGNAL ARM. I HAVE TO TAKE NITRO GLYCERINE BECAUSE I'M SCARED TO DEATH. OTHER DRIVERS HAVE THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. ALL TUSCONS SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM THE ROAD UNTIL THIS IS FIXED. THE DEALER DOESN'T CARE. HYUNDAI SHOULD BE FINED AND JAILED FOR DANGEROUS ENGINEERING. IT HAPPENS MULTIPLE TIMES!
