We are getting intermittent failures with screen going dark and/or warning lights flashing. This has happened on multiple occasions with the car while driving. We first brought into Preston Hyundai in Millsboro DE June 27 for this problem. There were some standard recalls (unrelated) but they hoped those recalls would fix the problem. They did not. We brought it back July 19 and remained in the shop until July 23. Spoke with Service Mgr Brad Atkins multiple times. He could not replicate, but has other customers with same concern and engaged Hyundai Field Services on this. They are still trying to figure this out and we took car back as they don't have loaner yet. They are hopeful to give us a loaner next week. So we have had two attempts to resolve unsuccessfly to date.

My vehicle's instrument cluster has failed, leaving me without a functioning speedometer, fuel gauge, or other critical displays. I believe this makes the vehicle unsafe to operate. I will also not pass Massachusetts state inspection. My local Hyundai dealerships told me the earliest repair appointment is about one- two months away. They also refused to provide a loaner vehicle or authorize a rental billing, leaving me with no safe transportation while waiting for a safety recall repair.

I own a 2025 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid Limited AWD with approximately 15,000 miles. While driving, I heard a loud, sudden noise and then discovered that the glass panel above the windshield, below the moonroof, had shattered/damaged. The incident occurred at a slight bump in the road, but not a pothole. I did not observe any large road debris, object, or vehicle ahead of me that appeared to cause an impact, and I saw no obvious evidence of a specific impact event. The damaged area allows water to enter the vehicle, making it unsafe and impractical to drive in rain or other inclement weather. There is also concern about loose glass debris. The dealership and Hyundai denied warranty coverage, stating the damage was impact-related. An independent automotive glass shop inspected the vehicle and provided a written assessment stating that the damage cannot be conclusively attributed to a rock or other road impact and could be consistent with a manufacturing defect. The vehicle has been inspected by both the dealer/manufacturer and an independent glass service provider. Hyundai corporate has also been contacted, and a corporate case manager was involved. There were no warning lamps or warning messages before the failure. The first symptom was the sudden loud noise while driving, followed by discovery of the damage to the glass panel above the windshield.

Two days after buying the car while on a trip to [XXX], while driving 70 miles per hour on an interstate using cruise control, the car quickly breaked and our speed went down to about 40. Scared us to death. We pulled off the side of the road to regroup and understand what just happened. We didn't understand and continued and stopped using cruise. We found a Hyundai dealer in [XXX] and went to ask them if they could help. It was a salesman who first quizzed us about where we brought the car, why we didn't buy from them, and pointed to the cruise control button and told us to take it back to the dealer We purchased it from. We just went on our way. Since that time, this car has braked suddendly, on it's own at least 12 or 14 times. It doesn't just brake, it stops. We have almost been hit numerous times, the seat belt has kept me from hitting the steering wheel, dash or windshield several times during this sudden breaking. I took the car in fir the recall that was supposed to fix this problem. It has not. Twice last week it decided to brake twice, once putting us in a serious position on the roadway while making a left turn. I took it back today and explained the situation. After they had it a couple of hours, they told me nothing was wrong with it. I am afraid to drive it and I know what is happening on an irregular basis.

Electronic display keeps rebooting while driving. Today dashboard info (speedometer, tach, gas level, etc.) totally blacked out for a 25 mile trip. Couldn't tell how the speed, how much gas left, etc. Vehicle has been serviced twice for this, most recently 6/30/2026. Software upgrade did not fix.
