Hyundai Tucson electrical problems

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HYUNDAI TUCSON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE HAVING A ROUTINE VEHICLE CHECK-UP BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, THE TECHNICIAN INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE TRANSMISSION MAIN SEAL WAS LEAKING. THE VEHICLE WAS TEST DRIVEN AND THE TECHNICIAN INDICATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO THE MAIN SEAL LEAK. THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED. THE FAILURE RECURRED. ADDITIONALLY, THE HEATER FAILED TO ENGAGE PROPERLY. JOHNNY LONDOFF CHEVROLET (1375 DUNN RD, FLORISSANT, MO 63031, (314) 227-1437) WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS THEN INFORMED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT UNDER RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO CONTACT NHTSA TO FILE A COMPLAINT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 94,000.

ELECTRIC WINDOWS IN THE CAR ARE A SAFETY HAZARD. I HAVE REPLACED BOTH FRONT AND BACK OF THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW SWITCHES BECAUSE THEY DO NOT ALLOW THE WINDOW TO GO UP OR DOWN. I TOOK IT IN FOR ONE WINDOW THAT WOULD NOT GO UP AND DOWN AND ABOUT A MONTH LATER THE SECOND WINDOW WENT. I AM KNOWING THAT IN THE FUTURE I WILL HAVE TO REPLACE THE OTHER TWO AS WELL. THIS CAN CAUSE A SERIOUS PROBLEM IF THERE IS AN ACCIDENT AND THE OCCUPANTS NEED TO OPEN WINDOWS TO GET OUT OF THE CAR. I AM SHOCKED THAT THERE IS NO RECALL TO FIX WHAT EVER ELECTRICAL ISSUE THERE MIGHT BE WITH THE WINDOWS. I JUST CAN'T FATHOM THAT TWO WINDOWS WOULD HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITHIN MONTHS OF EACH OTHER.

MY CAR IS NEEDED FOR A RECALL. ACCORDING TO THE MAIL THAT WAS SENT OUT FROM HYUNDAI MOTOR AMERICA, IT IS A VERY SERIOUS RECALL. I CALLED MY LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALER THE DAY I RECEIVED THE MAIL, WHICH WAS 11/30/2020. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD CALL ME BACK TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT ONCE THE PART IS IN. PER LETTER IN MAIL-"OWNERS SHOULD PARK THEIR VEHICLE OUTSDE UNTIL THE RECALL REPAIR IS COMPLETED" I CALLED MY DEALERSHIP AGAIN TODAY, 12/7/2020 AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS NO STATUS ON THE ABS MODULES.....NOTHING FURTHER TO ENSURE ME THEY ARE DOING EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO GET THIS RESOLVED, QUICKLY. IT IS NOT PRACTICAL FOR ME TO PARK MY CAR FOR DAYS/WEEKS WAITING FOR A RECALL. I HAD A VERY BAD EXPERIENCE WITH A PREVIOUS CAR I OWNED AND RECALLS AND DEEPLY DO NOT APPRECIATE THE LAZY, UNINTERESTED, 'NOT-MY-PROBLEM', NONCHALANT ATTITUDE WHEN IT COMES TO MY FAMILY AND I'S SAFETY. THESE PARTS NEED TO GET SHIPPED OUT ASAP AND THE DEALERSHIPS NEED SOME SORT OF TIMEFRAME TO TELL THEIR CUSTOMERS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO OPEN THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR DOOR, THE DOOR FAILED TO OPEN AUTOMATICALLY BY THE KEYFOB OR MANUALLY BY THE DOOR. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT BOTH PASSENGER'S SIDE DOORS FAILED TO OPEN A YEAR LATER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ONLY WAY TO GET OUT THE VEHICLE WAS FROM THE FRONT DRIVER'S DOOR. THE DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO GO TO THE DEALER FOR ASSISTANCE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 108,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 HYUNDAI TUCSON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SEVERAL WARNING LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. THE CONTACT HAD TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO ARAPAHOE HYUNDAI (9899 E ARAPAHOE RD, CENTENNIAL, CO 80112) ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS HOWEVER, THE MECHANIC HAD NOT DIAGNOSED OR DUPLICATED THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT THEN RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V543000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC) HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 12,000. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

I RECEIVED A NOTICE FOR RECALL ON MY VEHICLE THAT INDICATED I MUST BRING MY CAR IN TO HAVE A REPAIR AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, AND TO PARK MY CAR UNTIL THEN. I SCHEDULED WITH MY LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALER, AND THEY CALLED DAY OF APPOINTMENT TO TELL ME THE PART WAS NOT IN STOCK. THEY DID NOT OFFER APOLOGY OR RESCHEDULE MY APPOINTMENT, INSTEAD CANCELLING MY APPOINTMENT WITHOUT FOLLOW UP. I WAS NOT OFFERED A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE DESPITE THE FACT THAT I AM NOT SUPPOSED TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE UNTIL THE ISSUE IS REPAIRED.

I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM HYUNDAI REGARDING A RECALL FOR THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM ON HYUNDAI TUCSON. I ATTEMPTED TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT BUT THE ONLY APPOINTMENT AVAILABLE WAS MORE THAN A MONTH LATER. I ACCEPTED THAT APPOINTMENT BECAUSE I HAD NO CHOICE. NOW, THE DEALER HAS CALLED ME TO SAY THEY DON'T HAVE THE PART TO FIX THE PROBLEM. APPARENTLY THIS RECALL IS A BIG ISSUE AND COULD CAUSE ENGINE FIRE IF NOT FIXED. PLUS, THE LETTER SAYS THAT I SHOULD KEEP MY VEHICLE PARKED OUTSIDE UNTIL THE REPAIR IS COMPLETED WHICH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT THIS THING COULD CATCH FIRE EVEN WITH THE CAR OFF! I AM NOT ABLE TO KEEP THE VEHICLE OUTSIDE ALL THE TIME AND THIS IS A BIG HARDSHIP. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AND I AM AFRAID TO STORE IT AND STEW HANSEN HYUNDAI, THE DEALER IS FAILING TO REMEDY THIS IN A TIMELY MANNER.

ONGOING ISSUES WITH THE ENGINE TRANSIMISSION. AFTER 3 DEALERSHIP VISITS, PROBLEM WAS DUPLICATED AT BOB MAYBERRY HYUNDAI-MONROE, NC. WE WERE TOLD THIS WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND "FIX/PART" WAS COMING IN MARCH/APRIL 2020. I WAS NEVER CONTACTED. CONTINUED TO DRIVE THE CAR UNTIL FINALLY GOT FED UP WITH THE SAME ISSUE. I WENT TO OTHER DEALERSHIP (KEFFER HYUNDAI-CHARLOTTE, NC.). WAS TOLD THEY HAD TO REPLICATE BUT TECH COULD NOT. (REPAIR INVOICE STATES THEY DROVE THE CAR 1 MILE!) (THE DEALERSHIP WAS TOLD THIS WAS AN INTERMITENT PROBLEM). THE PROBLEM IS WHEN DRIVING VERY SLOW IN STOP & GO TRAFFIC, THE CAR JUMPS SIMILAR TO SOMEONE LEARNING TO DRIVE A STICK SHIFT AND HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE CLUTCH. I WAS AT A STOP SIGN ONE DAY...AT A COMPLETE STOP. I PROCEEDED TO MOVE FORWARD AND THE CAR STOPPED ABOUT 3 FEET AFTER MOVING. HAD I PULLED OUT IF THERE WAS ALOT OF TRAFFIC, I WOULD NOT HAVE HAD TIME TO MOVE IN THE ROAD. I DO NOT HAVE ALL INVOICES FROM FIRST DEALERSHIP (BOB MAYBERRY HYUNDAI-MONROE,NC), BUT THEY WILL HAVE EVERYTHING IN THEIR SYSTEM. I CAN REQUEST THIS DOCUMENTATION IF NEEDED.

ON 11/10/20, I RECEIVED NOTIFICATION THAT MY 2019 HYUNDAI TUSCON WAS PART OF A RECALL REGARDING ANTI-LOCK BRAKE HYRDAULIC ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT COULD CAUSE AN ELECTRICAL SHORT RESULTING IN AN ENGINE COMPARTMENT FIRE.I IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIPS AS INSTRUCTED ON THE RECALL LETTER AND WAS INFORMED THAT NONE OF THE DEALERSHIPS NATIONWIDE ACTUALLY HAVE THE PARTS IN ORDER TO FIX THIS RECALL! I CONFIRMED THIS BY CONTACTING ALL OF THE DEALERSHIPS WITHIN A 50MILE RADIUS OF ME. IT IS COMPLETELY IRRESPONSIBLE FOR HYUNDAI TO ISSUE THIS RECALL AND YET BE UNABLE TO FIX THIS PROBLEM THAT IS POTENTIALLY DEADLY! ALSO, COME TO FIND OUT, THE RECALL ISSUE DATE WAS ACTUALLY IN SEPTEMBER 2020 YET I ONLY FOUND OUT VIA LETTER IN NOVEMBER!!!! I CONTACTED HYUNDAI CUSTOMER SERVICE IN HOPES TO GET MORE ANSWERS ON THIS AND ALSO IF I WOULD BE ABLE TO GET A LOANER VEHICLE SO THAT I CAN GET TO WORK WHILE WAITING FOR AN UNKNOWN AMOUNT OF TIME BEFORE I AM ABLE TO GET MY VEHICLE REPAIRED. THIS RECALL HAS CAUSED EXTREME ANXIETY AND FEAR THAT MY SUV IS GOING TO SPONTANEOUSLY CATCH ON FIRE AT ANY TIME WITHOUT WARNING, EVEN WHILE PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY!! THE DEALERSHIPS ALSO ADVISED ME TO PARK MY CAR FAR AWAY FROM MY BUILDING WHICH ONLY MADE MY WORRY EVEN WORSE! I HAVE YET TO ACTUALLY HEAR BACK FROM HYUNDAI CUSTOMER SERVICE AND WAS GIVEN A SPECIFIC TIME AND DAY THAT I WOULD BE RECEIVING A CALL HOWEVER DID NOT RECEIVE A CALL. COMPLETELY DISAPPOINTED AND FRUSTRATED THAT I JUST PURCHASED THIS CAR LAST YEAR AND ALREADY WANT TO GET RID OF IT BECAUSE I DO NOT TRUST HYUNDAI ONE BIT NOW!
