ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
VEHICLE STALLS WHEN DRIVING. TOWED TO DEALER. DEALER CLAIMS THAT THEY CANNOT DIAGNOSE SINCE THEY CANNOT HOOKUP TO COMPUTER. DEALER CLAIMING COMPUTER MUST BE REPLACED FIRST, BUT IS OUTSIDE WARRANTY. VEHICLE HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO MULTIPLE DEALERS THROUGHOUT THE TIME OF OWNERSHIP TO REPORT PROBLEM. PROBLEM CONTINUOUSLY GOES UNFOUNDED. AS SEEN ON NHTSA AND OTHER POSTINGS THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE. HYUNDAI CORPORATE CLAIMS THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO TO HELP. *TR

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES
WHILE OPENING THE REAR HATCH WINDOW OF MY 2005 HYUNDAI TUCSON, BOTH WINDOW HINGES BROKE AND THE WINDOW FELL INTO MY HANDS. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY. WHEN I CALLED THE DEALER HE SAID THE HINGES WERE $97. A PIECE AND SAID HE HAD A LOT OF THEM IN STOCK (WHICH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THIS HAPPENS A LOT MORE FREQUENTLY THAN IS REPORTED!)

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES, VISIBILITY
I BOUGHT MY HYUNDAI TUSCON BRAND NEW BACK IN 2005. LAST WEEK I NOTICED A RATTLING SOUND COMING FROM THE REAR WINDSHIELD AND WHEN I WENT TO CHECK IT THE BACK WINDSHIELD ALMOST HAS FALLEN OUT. THE LATCH THAT HOLDS THE WINDSHIELD IN PLACE HAS CORRODED COMPLETELY. I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT OVER THE 5 YEARS I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE I HARDLY OPEN THE BACK WINDOW. I USUALLY OPEN THE ENTIRE TAILGATE WHEN PLACING ITEMS FOR STORAGE. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER AND HYUNDAI ABOUT THE ISSUE LOOKING TO GET THE LATCH REPLACED AND HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING BACK FROM THEM. I HAVE TRIED ON SEVERAL ATTEMPTS SINCE I NOTICE THE PROBLEM. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND COULD CAUSE THE WINDSHIELD TO COME FALLING OUT. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
MY WIFE'S HYUNDAI TUCSON (EITHER 2005 OR 2006) ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT TODAY WHEN THE ACCELERATION BECAME ERRATIC AND THEN STALLED WHILE AT AN INTERSECTION. SHE IMMEDIATELY BROUGHT IT INTO OUR HYUNDAI SERVICE CENTER. I SPOKE WITH A SERVICE MANAGER TO TELL HIM ABOUT A TPS (THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR) PROBLEM THAT I HAVE FOUND OUT ABOUT SPECIFIC TO THE 05-06 HYUNDAI TUCSON. I ALSO CALLED HYUNDAI BECAUSE THIS PROBLEM WILL NOT SHOW UP AS A 'FAULT CODE'. I HAVE INCLUDED HERE ONE OF MANY NOTES FOUND ON THE INTERNET CONCERNING THIS SAME PROBLEM: AFTER HAVING OUR 2006 TUCSON IN THE DEALER'S SERVICE SHOP FOR OVER THREE DAYS, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE CAR NEEDED A NEW TPS(THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR). THIS WAS AFTER THEY CONTACTED HYUNDAI TECHLINE AND AFTER I SUGGESTED THAT THEY TEST THE TPS AS A POSSIBLE CAUSE (CAME TO THIS CONCLUSION AFTER REVIEWING MANY WEBSITES/AUTOFORUMS. SOME FACTS: YOU WILL NOTICE A STUTTERING OR JERKING FEELING ALMOST AS IF YOU HAD A MANUAL TRANSMISSION, WERE DOWNSHIFTING AND RELEASING THE CLUTCH QUICKLY WHEN THE ENGINE RPM WAS NOT MATCHED TO THE LOWER GEAR, OR AS IF YOU TAPPED ON THE BRAKE TWICE WHILE DECELERATING. THIS MOTION CAN BE EITHER VERY SLIGHT OR RATHER VIOLENT (ONCE CAUSED US TO BE ACTUALLY PUSHED AGAINST OUR SHOULDER SEAT BELT. 1. ALMOST ALWAYS OCCURS WHEN EITHER COASTING OR DECELERATING, NEVER WHEN ACCELERATING. 2. USUALLY HAPPENS BETWEEN 40 -45 MPH. 3. NO FAULT CODE EVER COMES UP SO DON'T EVEN HAVE THE TECH WASTE HIS TIME. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT DROVE THE CAR FOR OVER THREE TOTAL HOURS TO TRY TO GET A FAULT CODE READING WITH NO RESULTS. 4. CAR WILL STALL WHEN COMING TO A STOP 50% OF THE TIME. 5. HAPPENS WHEN THE TRANSMISSION IS WARM. 6. FEELS LIKE TRANSMISSION IS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT GEAR IT WANTS TO GO INTO WHEN DECELERATING. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, TIRES:TREAD/BELT
BOUGHT A 2005 TUCSON NEW. IT NOW ONLY HAS 19K MILES ON IT. BUT FROM DAY ONE, WHEN I APPROACH A RED LIGHT/STOP SIGN AT ABOUT 30-50 MPH, MANY TIMES AS I DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL, IT FEELS LIKE I'M RIDING ON SPEED BUMPS THROUGH THE PEDAL/CAR AND I HAVE TO KEEP TAPPING THE BRAKES AS I CAN FEEL THE CAR WILL NOT STOP IN TIME AND QUICKLY PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL. I BROUGHT IT UP AT MY DEALERSHIP ALONG WITH THE FACT WHEN I LOCK MY CAR WITH THE KEY REMOTE, THE HORN BEEP TO ENGAGE THE RARELY SOUNDS. IT MAY SOUND 1 OR 2 TIMES IN 100 LOCKINGS. ALSO BROUGHT THAT UP TO THEM, WITH BOTH THEY FOUND NOTHING. THAT WAS YEARS AGO. I STILL LIVE WITH THIS NIGHTMARE AND IN 2009 MY HYUNDAI SERVICE CENTER CLOSED. I CONTACTED HYUNDAI TO ASK WHERE TO GO AND WOULD THE NEW PLACE HONOR THESE OLD PROBLEMS BUT THEY SAID "PROBABLY NOT". NOW MY CAR PAST THE 5 YEAR MARK AND STILL HAS ONLY 19K MILES ON IT AND I'M UP THE CREEK WITHOUT PADDLE. P.S. AFTER READING ABOUT OTHER'S TIRE WEAR PROBLEMS, MINE ARE ALMOST THREE QUARTERS WORN WITH ONLY 19K ON THEM. NEEDLES TO SAY, HYUNDAI CUSTOMER SERVICE IS "NOT THERE WHEN YOU NEED THEM". *TR

STEERING
WHILE DRIVING IN THE RAIN THE BATTERY LIGHT AND BRAKE LIGHT COME ON, THE STEERING WHEEL FREEZES AND POWER SEEMS TO LESSEN IN THE CAR. AFTER A FEW SECONDS THE STEERING RESUMES. HAS OCCURRED DURING A TURN, MAKING THE CAR GO STRAIGHT. THERE IS NO POWER OVER THE STEERING WHEN THIS OCCURS, HOWEVER, THE BRAKES DO WORK. THE STEERING WHEEL BECOMES EXTREMELY RIGID WHERE IT CANNOT BE TURNED. HAS HAPPENED ON AT LEAST 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. ALMOST HIT BY ANOTHER CAR THREE TIMES. THE CAR HAS BEEN TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER TWO OTHER TIMES WITH NO RELIEF. THEY DO NOT SEEM TO KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. I HAVE SEEN THIS ON THIS SITE UNDER STEERING: HYDRAULIC POWER ASSIST SYSTEM. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
I HAVE A 2005 HYUNDI TUCSON 2.7L V6. IM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE STALLING WHEN COMING TO A STOP. THE PROBLEM HAPPENED TODAY AT A STOP SIGN. THANKFULLY THERE WASN'T ANOTHER CAR IN FRONT OF ME BECAUSE I COULDN'T STOP IN TIME FOR THE SIGN AFTER IT STALLED. THIS HAS NOT BEEN THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. ITS HAPPENED ABOUT 6 OTHER TIMES, ALL WHEN COMING TO A STOP AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS, STOP SIGNS AND YIELD SIGNS. THE CAR DOES START RIGHT AFTER ITS STALLED. I'VE DONE A FAIR AMOUNT OF RESEARCH ON THIS ISSUE AND IT SEEMS IT HASN'T BEEN SOLVED YET. I'VE READ OF OTHER TUCSONS BEING INVOLVED IN ACCIDENTS DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. SOME CASES HAVE BEEN WHEN TRAVELING AY HIGHWAY SPEED. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED. *TR

THE HINGES ON THE BACK WINDOW HATCH OF MY 2005 HYUNDAI TUCSON JUST BROKE. FOR NO REASON, WHILE OPENING THE WINDOW, THE ENTIRE WINDOW POPPED OUT AT ME.

TIRES, TIRES:TREAD/BELT
BOUGHT NEW COOPER 235/60R16 CS4 TOURING 100V TIRES ON 9/9/08. IN MAY 09 I NOTICED AN UNEVEN "BUMPING" FROM THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE. I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN AND TWO TIRES HAD TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE THE TREAD HAD SEPARATED FROM THE STEEL BELT. I NOTICED A RECALL FOR ANOTHER COOPER TIRE, BUT NOT THIS ONE. I NOW HAVE TWO NEW TIRES BUT I AM STILL CONCERNED ABOUT THE TWO ORIGINAL TIRES THAT WERE PURCHASED IN 9/09/08. FROM SEPTEMBER 08 TO MAY28, 09 I ONLY PUT ON 1,576 MILES ON MY VEHICLE, MOSTLY AROUND TOWN. I FEAR IF I HAD CONTINUED TO DRIVE ON THE ORIGINAL TIRES THEY MAY HAVE SEPARATED AND CAUSED AN ACCIDENT OR ROLLOVER OF MY 2005 HYUNDAI TUCSON. HAVE THERE BEEN OTHER REPORTS OF THIS TIRE SEPARATING? DO I NEED TO WORRY ABOUT THE ORIGINAL TWO TIRES THAT ARE STILL ON THE VEHICLE? NOTE: THE DESCRIPTION ON MY BILL DESCRIBES THE TIRES AS CS4 TOURING. I COULD NOT FIND THAT EXACT MATCH IN THE TIRE DESCRIPTION FIELD. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
COMPLETE BRAKE FAILURE. THIS IS THE THIRD OCCASION THAT THE BRAKES ON MY 2005 HYUNDAI TUCSON HAVE FAILED. SO FAR ALL THREE OF THE INCIDENTS HAVE OCCURRED WHILE TRYING TO GRADUALLY BRAKE FROM A SPEED OF AROUND 35 MPH. THE BRAKE PEDDLE TRAVELS ALL THE WAY DOWN AS IF THERE WAS NO RESISTANCE AND THE CAR KEEPS ON GOING. THE ONLY WAY THAT I WAS ABLE TO COME TO A SKIDDING HALT WAS BY USING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE LEVER. I HAVE HAD THE HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP INSPECT THE AUTO BUT THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO FIND ANYTHING THAT WOULD CAUSE THE BRAKES NOT TO WORK. IT'S A ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. *TR
