2019 Hyundai Tucson

The TSB needs to be replaced according to the Hyundai Dealership. This is a known problem and would normally be covered under warranty but I am just outside of my warranty window and it just started happening. The entire audio system, touch screen controls, and hands-free controls do not work. The touch screen freezes after a few seconds and freezes on my backup camera creating a major driving distraction. The audio system does not shut of once the vehicle has been turned off creating a problem for the battery which I have to manually disconnect or it will continue to power my touchscreen system even after I leave the vehicle. The lane assist, blind spot indicator, and any beeping warning sounds do not work because of the failing TSB. I cannot change my cars settings or hear any warnings from the car's sensors. I believe this is a major manufacturing flaw and Hyundai will not fix it even though those warning sounds are part of the safety features of the vehicle and are a major player in driver safety. The radio controls do not work - volume included. I cannot adjust any noises in the car and beeping warnings are no longer sounding. I am worried that this problem is also affecting any and all car audio warnings such as the forward collision warning, parking collision warning, and lane departure warning.

I was driving approx 55mph on [XXX] in my 2019 hyundai tucson when the check engine light came on and the engine started to stall. I felt the acceleration dying down in the middle of busy highway traffic. Gray smoke started coming from the hood cracks. I luckily was in the right lane already, so when I could I veered off to the shoulder and the car quit. The smoke was increasing badly. Ppl from the highway were yelling its going to blow up get away from it! I was so scared. I grabbed my phone and keys and ran as far as I could while dialing 911. Within a couple minutes flames were swallowing the entire engine and front of the car. I am furious. I researched online and hyundai has had many similar incidents with this car and other with this engine ! These need to be banned and taken off the road before they kill anyone else. Ppl have been injured and killed from similar situations just like mine. I thank God I made it out of this horrific situation alive. But now I have no car and am at risk of losing my job and then housing . I thought I would have this car for years. Now I'm traumatized and without transportation.

I believe that this car is a lemon. Ever since we bought it we have problems with the engine not performing right. I have got the engine system cleaned multiple times one at the dealership and one at Valvoline Oil Change facility. The engine still didn't run smooth. I would always get the oil changed on time and the vehicle has never been in a accident. Now just yesterday the vehicle while driving on the highway just stalled and wouldn't accelerate past 60mph. Now the check engine light is blinking and all of the lights on the dash are on. Also lately sometimes the forward collision lights will come on and other warning lights and sometimes they wont. Another light that intermittently comes on are the auto hold and epb light and this has been happening since we bought the vehicle. I have taken into Hyundai and they basically were like yea sometimes that happens. I have not gotten the new check engine light checked but I am sure that it is something serious because the car won't accelerate past 60mph. I have read on other discussions that there are many problems with Hyundai engines and believe that I am victim to very poor quality manufacturing in this engine. I also have a 2013 Toyota Camry with 180,000 miles and haven't had one problem with it. This car is a lemon and would like to have some help with this please. I have also made a complaint with Hyundai under their drive train warranty.

The vehicle was repaired under the major engine failure recall. Took the dealer months to replace the engine and now they are reporting the transmission is bad too. The car had absolutely no issues pre engine failure leaving me stranded. From reading up on forums I think transmission failures are just as common as engine leaving you stranded on a busy highway.

I was driving on the highway. The engine began making a ticking noise that momentarily went away and then quickly got louder. I saw white smoke out of the back, pulled over, and then saw black smoke from the front. The check engine light only momentarily came out AFTER the white smoke was visible and I was actively pulling over. I ran out of the car, and turned to look only to see a fire under the engine bay. I did not have a collision nor hit anything on the road. Engine had full synthetic oil in it, and the oil was changed less than 10,000 miles precious. (Also checked oil level/condition the week before). The car went from driving fine, to entirely engulfed in flames within 2-4 minutes. Maine state police: case# 245000657 The vehicle has not been inspected by the insurance company yet. The report will be sent to me, and it is currently available for inspection upon request. I literally could have burned alive. My family could have been trapped. I was on the highway, LUCKILY I decided to pull over when I did. If I did not, within 40 seconds I would’ve been engulfed in flames. I have most certainly not been sleeping well in the least bit. The only warning sign happened 5-10 seconds before I was out of the vehicle.

The contact owns a 2019 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while driving approximately 30 MPH, the vehicle stalled. The contact stated that the vehicle lost power steering and brake functionality. The contact stated that the instrument panel went blank. The contact was able to restart the vehicle. The contact stated that the failure recurred. Additionally, the vehicle was hesitating and jerking while driving at various speeds. The contact had taken the vehicle to a local dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the engine knock sensor software needed to be updated. The vehicle had been repaired. The contact stated that the failure had reoccurred. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 62,000.

On Thursday, July6th 2023 for the 3rd time, the check engine light came on and the vehicle loses acceleration. My safety and others is at risk because it suddenly decelerates and is very likely to cause an accident.the car has been dropped off at dealer who told me they would “try” to look at it early next week. Its not been inspected by Police, Manufacturer or ins reps. The same problem occurred on Dec28 2022 and again in April of 2022. In Dec they replaced the “knock sensor”. In April the code had been cleared so the dealer said there was nothing they could do. Im in a rental vehicle now because the dealer did not have a loaner for me.

At approximately 69000 miles my engine stalled as I was pulling onto a highway and would not accelerate beyond a low mph. I turned back into gas station I had left and checked the oil. It did not register any oil and had a burning smell. There were never any dash lights indicating low oil. I put almost 2 quarts in vehicle. I then proceeded to drive as it seemed okay. I have had oil changes where the technicians have told me I was low on oil even though it was a normal time frame for oil change. I recently checked my oil just right as my oil change is due and the oil level did not register, nor were there any low oil indicators on dash. I had to add a quart of oil. This poses a hazard/safety problem. If not checked more often than normal, oil could go low and stall again. If pulling into a busy traffic area and a stall occurs, there could be an accident etc not to mention damage to the motor/engine itself. I have to frequently check the oil levels which should not have to happen for a vehicle with 70k+ miles.

I was merging onto a highway at high speeds when the car stuttered. The check engine light began to flash and I lost acceleration. I could push the gas pedal to the floor and the car would not accelerate at all. The car lost it's speed and I could not go anymore than 30mph, and it would not go higher than 2rpms. It put me and my baby (who was in the backseat) in danger as we were going fast on a highway and out of nowhere the car lost speed and I could not accelerate. I could've easily been hit by another driver going the regular speed limit. I drove it to the dealership that just happened to be down the street, and the car struggled to accelerate from a complete stop, as well as in general. From a complete stop, the car would sputter and jerk when pressing on the gas pedal. The dealership diagnosed it as a faulty Knock Sensor. They said they would replace the sensor as it was still under warrenty. When I left the dealership, the check engine light was off and the car was driving fine. Fast forward to the next day, I was driving again on a highway at about 65mph, when the SAME thing happens. The car stuttered, lost all acceleration, and the check engine light was flashing. I ended up driving it home (about 10 miles away) and the whole time I could not go faster than 30mph without the car shaking. This time the car would not go higher than 1.5rpms. I checked the engine at home and a P1326 code came up, which is a code for the Knock Sensor. I called the Hyundai dealership that I originally went to and they said there was nothing they can do about it at the moment since they had just replaced it. Prior to all of this, there was no warning sign at all that this was a potential hazard. It happened so suddenly and both times it happened put me in a dangerous situation.
