2022 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid

I drive 2022 Hyundai Tucson hyrbrid limited. I have noticed a plastic cluttering noise coming from outside hood area on driver side. This noise is always there at highway speed only. Have already complained to dealership but they act like they are confused and can’t figure out where exactly noise is coming from. Like me many people have complained about this same cluttering problem which nobody has figured out where exactly it’s coming from. But the noise is loud and always there at highway speed. Only way to hide this noise is by playing loud music.

The trailer towing guidance in the 2022 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid owner’s manual is incorrect and would put the driver in a dangerous situation if followed. There are at least two key errors: - Page 6-68 states, “The trailer tongue should weigh a maximum of 10% of the total loaded trailer weight . . .” This is incorrect. For stability, the trailer tongue weight should be a minimum of 10% of the total loaded trailer weight. - The table on page 6-69 lists the maximum trailer weight when equipped with a braking system as 3,500 pounds. However, the table also gives that the maximum tongue weight as 220 pounds. That equates to a 6.3% tongue weight. I contacted Hyundai to ask for clarification (see attached email). They told me that “Towing capacity is based on engine power and other such concerns. Tongue weight is determined by the material strength of the hitch, anchor points, etc. and therefore the two will not necessarily coincide.” I then asked them what the tongue weight limitation was based on and they said they did not know. The owner’s manual is over 11 Mb, so I have only to two pages of concern.

Driving the car acceleration will go to zero. You can floor it and it will only go to 20mph. The car asked you to pull over safely. They hybrid battery is at zero and warning signs keep flashing. Has happened over three times on a new car. Dealership can’t figure it out. When I look up “HEV warning Tucson hybrid” there are many with same issue. Very, very dangerous issue.

I have a4000 mileage on hundai 2022 tuscon hybrid which I bought brand new on December 2021 and car suddenly won’t start three weeks ago. I have to tow the car to dealership . They called hundai engineers and they told them to remove inside harness which I have to wait for the part for week . After putting that car won’t start and they called again to Hundai engineers and they told them to put harness outside . I am waiting for the other part . This new car should not have this problem . They also not giving me any rental car .

I am writing this letter to formally file a complaint regarding the defective sunroof on my brand-new 2022 Hyundai Tucson Limited Edition. I am a medical frontliner and I purchased my car on July 20, 2022. Eleven (11) days after I brought the car home, the sunroof spontaneously exploded, creating a huge crack that spanned the entire width of the car. In addition to that crack, I could see small fissures in the entire back panel of the sunroof. I am grateful that I was not in the car when this happened. It was only upon stopping at a restaurant that one of my passengers, who is tall enough to see the roof of the car, noticed the damage. Upon noticing the crack, I drove the car immediately to the dealership, where I was told that they found a small dent in the roof, which indicated a point of impact. The dealership manager then told me in no uncertain terms that because of this technicality, it was my fault and that there was nothing they could do to help me. In the 11 days that I have had the car, I have not parked under any trees, nor heard any noise that would have indicated an impact of any kind. Furthermore, the supposed point of impact was hairline and we don't understand how that could result in the entire back frame had a two-inch gap crack which runs the entire width of the back roof. I was really looking forward to driving my new Hyundai hybrid. I paid the deposit and waited approximately two months to get my vehicle, and after just 11 days, this happened. I thought that Hyundai would be able to help me, but I feel that they really did not investigate or try to help beyond the initial assessment which took them less than five minutes to conclude. The bottom line is that no car that is sold to the public should have these issues, and if there are multiple complaints of the same issue, the car manufacturer should recall all units and resolve any design or manufacturing issues before releasing them from the factory for sale.

My car’s infotainment constantly and consistently goes black and disconnects and reconnects when connected to Apple CarPlay. This may seem like an inconvenience at first, but it poses a real safety issue when using navigation in an area I’m unfamiliar with. In this case it can cut out for ten seconds or more as I’m about to make a turn, which can distract me or make me make a sudden move or turn to make my destination. It also cuts out phone calls, which can force me to use my phone’s speakerphone and regular phone features which require I hold and/or look at the phone while driving. This is a known Hyundai/Apple issue that seems to be impacting thousands of people. I have an iPhone XR with the latest software (15).

Thankfully we are alive. We were going at speed and he attempted to pass me on the median, grass and rumble strips. He was inches away from my rear bumper, riding me. When I put the turn signal to move away from him he hit my driver’s side rear panel (side swiped), thank God it didn't turn into a pit maneuver and killed us. He then proceeded to take off. So one thing I have to say is, the vehicle has great pick up. I called 911 and went after him to get his lic plate. When I got to be about 10 car lengths or so, he slammed his brakes. Since I was on the left lane, I could not keep going left and risk going into oncoming traffic. Plus, there was a car on the right lane I slammed the brakes and rear ended him on his right rear. He had a 2021 Toyota Tacoma pick up and our hood flipped up and shattered the windshield. The hood stayed up and I was driving blind. All I did was keeping straight, not knowing where I was going and didn’t hit a vehicle, tree, embankment or sign. I went there yesterday and I have no idea how I we didn’t die. I’m so shaken up by it. When we came to a stop, there was a hole about 6 feet from my front tire. We were the victim of road rage and this person caused the accident purposely. He admitted it to the police. He said to the cop, I was slowing down traffic. I suspect with the size of his vehicle and being so close to my rear bumper, he did not see my turn signal. My major concern is the airbags did not deploy and the hood flipped open blocking my view. I was in a forum and this happened to the same model owned by someone else. I suspect this is a design flaw.
