2017 Hyundai Tucson

Dangerous acceleration issues... my car hesitates for almost 10 seconds when accelerating from a complete stop, at a stop light or turning into oncoming traffic and sometimes changing lanes at low speeds. This has caused near accidents on several occasions. I have even experienced the vehicle completely shutting off while idling and moving at low speeds in heavy traffic or going thru a drive thru restaurant. The Drive Clute Transmission (DCT) description that came with my vehicle when I purchased it mentioned "a direct driving feeling which may fee different" ... "more noticeable when starting from a stop or low vehicle speed"... what it failed to mention is that the car would delay or hesitate for near 10 seconds then leap forward or even completely shut off putting my safety and the safety of other drivers at risk for injury or worse fatality. The DCT is a major safety concern and a common reported issue. Why aren'tyou doing anything to help consumers? I'm tired of dealership mechanics stating there's nothing they can do to fix the issue because Hyundai hasn't issued any recalls. The 2016 model had a recall for this same issue. I am a single mother and veteran and I need to have a safe running vehicle. Hyundai boasts the best warranty available and I even purchased an extended at the time of purchase so why can't Hyundai/dealership do anything to fix this? This has been an occasional issue since around 30k miles but had gotten more frequent and worse. I first made an appointment for the issue in 12/5/2020 at about 51k miles.

Driving east on I90 the Hyundai began to loose power going up Bozeman pass and burst into flames, smoke and flames shot foul from the car that came to rest on the shoulder. My friend and i were able to grab our dogs from the back seat get away from the car before it became engulfed in flames destroying the front half of the vehicle and the interior completely.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while driving 50 mph, when the contact noticed the vehicle started to rattle and shake and the contact heard a loud banging sound. The vehicle was losing power going up a mountain. The contact was able to slowly move the vehicle over to the side of the road and parked the vehicle. The contact asked another motorist to call the police to have the vehicle towed from the location. The police arrived and had a tow truck tow the vehicle to an independent mechanic. The mechanic was able to inspect the vehicle and noticed there was no oil in the engine. The vehicle was diagnosed, and the contact was informed that the engine was blown and needed to be replaced. The contact had the vehicle towed to the local dealer for the diagnosis and repair. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 60,100.

Engine failure at highway speed. Put family/children and myself at risk on an interstate when engine failed with no warning no CEL..after previously making complaints to Hyundai dealership for multiple engine problems burning excessive oil, excessive back pressure, oil leaks..dealer assured us no issues even after informing them we would be driving the vehicle on an extended trip. Left us stranded 5 hours from home..

We bought our 2017 Tucson with about 40000 miles in 2019. We have had some issues that are to be covered by the warranty. The last was the engine going. I was extremely religious about regular maintenance and always took it to the dealership to have the oil changed and other work every 3000. 2 of the last 4 oil changes cost me over $400 and $600 due to what I thought was work required to maintain the warranty, finding out later that this was false and the service people lied. In the last 4 oil changed I reported excessive oil consumption, 1 qt per 1000 miles at least. They told me this was normal and to be expected. I was 4 hours in to a 8 hour drive when the engine failed. I had checked and filled the oil before I left, in 4 hours it consumed over 3qts. It took me at least a month of dealing with the warranty company to cover as we had a lifetime powertrain warranty. They were not going to cover it due to lack of lubricant. As I told them the engine was failing before this incident. The dealer did not record my requests to find the oil consumption problem. It has now been 4 months, still making car payments and waiting for them to put a used engine in it. We were not offered a choice of whether used or rebuild. This is a known problem and have found class action suits for similar vehicles but for whatever reason earlier and later models are included, same engine and same problem as those part of the class action.

UNKNOWN. I bought my 2017 Hyundai Tuscon brand new in 2016. This car was not owned by anyone prior to me and had 11 miles on the dashboard. I maintained this car as I should have and got oil changes before the suggested time provided by the dealer. Now fast forward to 2020/2021 and my car is louder, making noises, not driving smoothly, and having trouble accelerating sometimes. I tell the dealer and they say nothing is wrong with my car but these problems persist. Eventually while driving to work early this year (spring 2021) my car completely stalls and will hardly drive faster than 5mph. I took the car to a mechanic (not Hyundai because they never have answers) that told me my catalytic converter was completely clogged and that it was an unusual thing to see in such a new car with only 100,000 miles on it. They replaced the converter and now it doesn’t stall. The car still continues to drive less smooth and the engine knocks and makes rattle noises but Hyundai still says they don’t see any other issue with the car. My mechanic told me it seems as if the car is burning the oil up because even when i come to get an oil change early it’s always bone dry my car is always starting to get super loud and check engine light comes on well before I’m due to change it so i take it up and get an oil change but i believe this is a defect on the car and i shouldn’t have to continue doing this eventually it’s going to cause even worse problems for my car, i read other reviews and I’m not the only one complaining of the oil burning up with no leak or other explanation, clearly this is a manufacturer defect!

bought 2017 Tucson sport new. Within a few months i notice the acceleration was diminished and the vehicle paused when pressing down on gas pedal. Dealer assured me it was related to the dual clutch. Fast forward to April 2019 and the issue never resolved itself and ultimately resulted in a thrown rod. Engine was replaced. Dec 2020 car shakes violently on highway brought back to the shop dealer claims nothing is wrong. June 4th have oil changed per schedule by jun9 i am smelling smoke upon exiting car. Check oil and it is on low. drop off at dealer they claim nothing is wrong. Force me to pay for another oil change and perform a 500 mile oil consumption test which will involve me driving this car on the highway with an engine that can seize at any moment potentially killing me or others on the road. Leave dealership and the car continues to spew smoke from tail pipe. No check engine lights appear during either event. This is incredibly dangerous and needs to be added to a lawsuit. Hyundai knows this is an issue but they do nothing and people will die.

I bought my 2017 Hyundai Tuscon with 38,905 miles on it. My engine blew up at 70,806 miles while I was on my way to work.My husband was changing the oil and when he pulled the oil plug from the oil pan, NOTHING came out of the pan. We assumed the dealer just didn't put oil back in it or not enough. The mileage on the Tuscon the last time we took it to the dealer was at 54,988. We put a 7,500-mile oil change in it and the next oil change, it was dry again. No oil light, no engine light, no oil spots on the ground or the engine. No evidence of it leaking anywhere. Fast forward a few oil changes, sooner than suggested, we changed the oil at around 68,000 miles with no issues (only because we were changing the oil every 3,500 miles or so). Then while on my way home from work one evening, all my dash lights came on, my car sounded and ran extremely rough for the 15 miles I had until I reached my house. As I pulled up the driveway, you could hear it knocking loudly so I checked my oil and the engine was BONE DRY, it had only been 2,200 miles since the last oil change so it shouldn't have been empty. We added the 5 quarts of oil that it needed and drove it down the road a mile or so to listen and feel it, nothing was wrong; it sounded fine and ran well. The next morning it ran for 15 min in my driveway, warming up, and drove 8 miles and I heard a loud clank. It stalled, I was able to start it back up, it stalled again and I had to coast it half a mile to get it out of the road and into a driveway out of harm's way. It had to be towed to the dealer. They ran several tests to find out that "cylinder 3 had spun its bearings leaving heavy amounts of metal in the oil and pan noted, premature material failure of bearing is cause of rod knocking. Engine will need replaced due to introduction of metal on all moving components." It was in the shop for a month being repaired and now with only 5,222 miles on the engine, I've already had to add almost 4 quarts of oil in 2 months.
