We bought Tucson 2024 Sel from Stafford Hyundai [XXX]. We were happy new vehicle owner and yourself. Sales told us it will be good for at least few years without any problem after four months and 22 days the vehicle started not running call Chantilly service they connected me with the online service and they suggested us to call Roadside assistant and jumpstart. while we talk with them jumpstart vehicle rolled down the driveway the door was open bumped by the carport wall. Luckily the vehicle stop didn’t damage anything behind other houses or anything. The door was damaged. We don’t want this vehicle anymore. We want return or replace. It’s a brand new vehicle and it’s a life safety issue and I have a special son., bad battery after four months and rolled down the driveway, I want to mention the Service Manager instance of empathy he told us nothing last forever have a bad battery after four months and roll down the vehicle is very normal. He mentioned checked the role down, but Alfred from service said only repair happened bad battery and also Manager said he did inform Hyundai motor corporation. I spoke with the case manager after I spoke with service manager and he said he never spoke with Safford service and no one return his calls. He tried to call multiple times. Gap communication, and false information is giving to us and we purchased this vehicle from here we do not want this vehicle we want return or replacement, otherwise someone has to sign a bond and saying this is safe to drive. If cause any trouble with my family or big accident or death Safford Hyundai service is liable for it. Thank you so much. case created with Hyundai corporation but vehicle in now Safford Hyundai body shop. Hyundai corporation denied the case.

My vehicle has been malfunctioning with the automatic emergency brake. A total of 5 times. I am driving down the road going around 50-65 mph I am the only one in my vehicle and all of the sudden it puts the emergency brake on. It’s like someone else takes over my vehicle. Fortunately I have not been rear ended. Nobody has been in front of me when this happens the first time. It is not linked to or to be confused with the collision warning, it is wholly the emergency braking system that is put on with the light stating this & throws me forward into the steering wheel. I towed my vehicle into the Bakersfield Hyundai shop & they have been unable to duplicate my problem with the vehicle. I have lost ALL confidence in my vehicle due to it has done it a total of 5 times and I just got it in September 2023. It has been in the shop for this month. Was taken to them by tow truck on 2/7/24. Was told by tow truck driver that I would be in body bag if it happened again especially in front of a diesel truck. This is either a first of a major recall or a Lemon car. Either way not wanting to get in it again. Needs to be addressed and they can’t do anything about it. I do not have any pictures of my vehicle due to it is an internal issue but I do have the paperwork from the dealership shop.
