2016 Hyundai Tucson complaints

THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN SERVICED NUMEROUS TIMES REGARDING THE PAST TWO RECALLS. UPDATING THIS VEHICLE IS NOT WHAT IT NEEDS. THIS VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED COMPLETELY. I CANNOT ACCELERATE FROM A STOP, WHEN I'M IN MOTION, OR FROM A SLOW SPEED ON ANY HIGHWAYS, INTERSTATES, CITY STREETS, ETC. THIS VEHICLE DOES NOT WANT TO MOVE. ALSO, NOW GIVEN ALL OF THE ISSUES I'VE BEEN HAVING WITH THIS BRAND NEW CAR, THE AIR CONDITIONING AND BRAKES ARE FADING IN AND OUT. SO ALL OF THE ISSUES I'VE HAD WITH THIS BRAND NEW CAR INCLUDE BUT NOT LIMITED: LACK OF ACCELERATION, STALLING, DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION, AIR-CONDITIONING, BRAKING, AND RADIO/BLUETOOTH/CD PLAYER WILL NOT ALWAYS WORK. I SUBMITTED A LEMON LAW COMPLAINT THROUGH THE BBB AND SPOKE WITH HYUNDAI CONSUMER AFFAIRS. THIS IS POSSIBLY MY THIRD OR FOURTH COMPLAINT ONLINE WITH THIS HEINOUS VEHICLE. IT'S UNSAFE FOR ANYONE LOOKING TO PURCHASE!!!! IT'S JERKY AND WILL LAUNCH YOU ONCE IT FINALLY DECIDES TO ACCELERATE AND THEN I'M AT A STANDSTILL ONCE MORE. THIS VEHICLE HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN AND I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT A DEALERSHIP WOULD SELL A DEFUNCT CAR TO SOMEONE. MAYBE UNKNOWINGLY, BUT NOW I HAVE TO JUMP THROUGH HOOPS AND FIND OTHER MODES OF TRANSPORTATION JUST TO GET TO WORK AND BACK. UNRELIABLE, UNSAFE, UNREASONABLE FOR THE COST, AND I'M NOT WILLING TO DO ANYTHING ELSE WITH THIS VEHICLE. HYUNDAI NEEDS TO MAKE THIS RECURRING AND SUBSTANTIAL ISSUE RIGHT WITH THIS UNHAPPY CUSTOMER. LET'S JUST HOPE THE REGIONAL OFFICE WILL FIND A SOLUTION AND PAY

THIS CAR HAS HAD A PROBLEM ACCELERATING FROM A STOPPED POSITION SINCE I PURCHASED IT IN APRIL 2016. WHEN PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR FROM A STOPPED POSITION, THE ENGINE WILL REV BUT THE CAR WILL ONLY CREEP SLOWLY FORWARD INTO TRAFFIC. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM THAT HAPPENS SEVERAL TIMES A MONTH. DESPITE PERFORMING THE RECALL AND RECALL UPDATES ON THE TRANSMISSION, THE ACCELERATION PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS.

WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP I HAVE HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE NOT SPEEDING UP. IT ACTS AS IF IT IS NOT GETTING GAS. I CAN PUSH THE GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR AND IT JUST KEEPS GOING THE SAME SPEED (ABOUT 2-5MPH). I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT ONCE WHEN PULLING INTO TRAFFIC AND ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT ONCE WHEN A CAR HAD TO SWERVE TO MISS ME. I NEVER KNOW WHEN OR IF THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN AGAIN. I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT AND THEY SAID AN UPDATE FOR THE TRANSMISSION WAS ISSUED AND THAT WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM. WELL, THE SAME THING IS STILL HAPPENING SO I TOOK IT BACK AGAIN TO BE LOOKED AT. NOW THEY TELL ME HYUNDAI IS GOING TO RELEASE ANOTHER UPDATE SOON. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM AND I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE.

PASSENGER AIRBAG FAILURE TO INFLATE WARNING LIGHT ON DASH. DEALER REPLACED AIRBAG CONTROLLER MODULE ON RECOMMENDATION OF MFG.

RELATED TO ORIGINAL RECALL CAMPAIGN - 16V628000. I HAD THE UPDATED TRANSMISSION CONTROL SOFTWARE/RECALL INSTALLED IN NOVEMBER OF 2016. THE UPDATE WORKED FOR A TIME, BUT PERFORMANCE HAS STEADILY DECLINED ONCE AGAIN (THIS SOFTWARE HAS BEEN EITHER UPDATED OR RESET BY HYUNDAI MULTIPLE TIMES SINCE PURCHASE). I HAVE BEEN STUCK AT INTERSECTIONS WITH NO ACCELERATION, THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE WHEN MERGING ONTO FREEWAYS IS LIMITED (ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO CONVINCE THE CAR TO SHIFT TO A LOWER GEAR), AND SHIFTING OUT OF 1ST GEAR AT LOW SPEEDS/LOCAL TRAFFIC IS HIGHLY SPORADIC (SOMETIMES IT FEELS LIKE THE 'CLUTCH' IS HALF ENGAGED; OTHER TIMES IT WON'T SHIFT OUT OF FIRST, SO YOU ACCELERATE FASTER THAN YOU WANT AND AT MUCH HIGHER RPM THAN WOULD BE CONSIDERED NORMAL DRIVING). HYUNDAI HAS JUST RESET THE SOFTWARE IN MY CAR SO THAT IT CAN 'LEARN' AGAIN, BUT THE UPDATE PROVIDED WITH THE RECALL DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. I WOULD VERY MUCH LIKE SOMETHING TO BE DONE AS NEW CAR OWNERS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO UPDATE SOFTWARE MULTIPLE TIMES PER YEAR IN ORDER TO HAVE THEIR VEHICLE OPERATE SAFELY.

THIS IS MY 2ND HYUNDAI TUCSON 1.6L TURBO LIMITED W ULTIMATE PACKAGE. THE FIRST 2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON LIMITED WAS REPURCHASED BY HYUNDAI MOTOR AMERICA WITH ONLY 9K MILES ON IT FOR THE SAME ISSUE EVERYONE ELSE IS EXPERIENCING. MY 2ND TUCSON HAS 32K MILES ON IT AND IT'S BEEN IN THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT NUMEROUS OCCASIONS FOR THE SAME REASON EVERYONE ELSE HAS MENTIONED. THE CAR HESITATES WHEN I PRESS ON THE ACCELERATOR AS IF IT IS HAS GONE INTO NEUTRAL, THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT WILL LURCH FORWARD GIVING YOU WHIPLASH. I AM SO TIRED OF BEING 'STONEWALLED' BY HYUNDAI - LOOK AT ALL THESE COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME ISSUE AND WHERE IS HYUNDAI? WHERE IS THEIR RESPONSE? I'M TIRED OF THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TELLING ME THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE MY CONCERN WHEN I SHOW THEM A VIDEO OF EXACTLY WHAT IT'S DOING. THIS REMINDS OF THE PINTO DISASTERS BACK IN THE 70'S. HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE BEFORE HYUNDAI ACCEPTS RESPONSIBILITY FOR A POORLY DESIGNED ENGINE TRANSMISSION COMBINATION. HOW MANY PEOPLE? I'M SO TIRED OF THIS THAT I WANT TO HIRE AN ATTORNEY - THIS IS NEGLIGENCE ON HYUNDAI'S PART, THEY ARE JUST WAITING TO SEE HOW MANY PEOPLE DIE BEFORE THEY REACT. LOOK UP 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON, THE PROBLEM CONTINUES - SO REMOVING 'ECO' MODE IN 2017, DIDN'T RESOLVE THE ISSUE. ANYONE WHO WOULD LIKE TO TALK ABOUT THEIR ISSUE OR WOULD BE INTERESTED IN FILING A LAWSUIT AGAINST HYUNDAI - PLEASE CALL ME AT [XXX] OR EMAIL ME AT [XXX] IT'S ABOUT TIME WE STAND UP AND FIGHT BACK - THIS CAN'T CONTINUE. WHY DOES SOMEONE ALWAYS H

SHORT PASSENGER TRYING TO USE AN AUTO SEAT CUSHION FOUND THAT AIRBAG PROTECTION WAS DISENGAGED (OFF)--IN MOTION OR STATIONARY. WHEN CUSHION WAS REMOVED, AIRBAG PROTECTION WAS ENGAGED (ON). PASSENGER SEAT SHOULD BE UP-DOWN ADJUSTABLE FOR PERSONS OF DIFFERENT HEIGHTS. OR SENSORS IMPROVED.

VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE FROM A STOP AT TIMES UNTIL 3000 RPM AND THEN SQUEALS TIRES. IT IS A SAFTEY ISSUE. HYUNDA DEALER DID A RECALL WHICH HAS NOT FIXED THE PROBLEM COMPLETELY. IT IS INTERMITTANT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HESITATED TO ACCELERATE. THE FAILURE OCCURRED FOUR TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (HAZLETON HYUNDAI LOCATED AT 703 AIRPORT RD, HAZLE TOWNSHIP, PA 18202) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED; HOWEVER, A FAILURE COULD NOT BE FOUND. THE TECHNICIAN INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATING AS DESIGNED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY SERVICED AT THE HAZLETON HYUNDAI DEALER PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V628000 (POWER TRAIN, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE FAILURE WAS NEVER CORRECTED. THE MANUFACTURER INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATING AS DESIGNED AND ADVISED HIM TO CALL THE BBB. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000. UPDATED 08/24/17*LJ *CN

WHEN THE CAR IS STATIONARY, IT SOMETIMES DOES NOT MOVE WHEN YOU GIVE PRESS THE GAS PEDAL. WHEN PRESSING HE GAS PEDAL, THE ENGINE WILL REV, THE RPMS WILL INCREASE, BUT THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE OR WILL SOMETIMES SPUTTER AND BARELY CRAWL. THIS SEEMS TO ONLY HAPPEN WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STATIONARY POSITION.

I PURCHASED A BRAND NEW 2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON. ABOUT A MONTH LATER, WE STARTED EXPERIENCING A PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE. WHILE ACCELERATING, THE CAR SEEMS TO LOSE POWER AND STALLS. THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE POWER KICKS ON AND CAUSES THE CAR TO JOLT. THIS HAPPENS ERRATICALLY AND AT LEAST 2X PER MONTH. IT'S INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT HAPPENS WHILE I AM IN AN INTERSECTION. I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM HYUNDAI REGARDING THIS RECALL, BUT THE SERVICE DID NOT HELP MY VEHICLE AT ALL. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT AGAIN, AND THE MAN STATED THAT THIS IS A COMMON COMPLAINT, BUT THE HYUNDAI CORPORATION IS STATING THAT THIS IS 'NORMAL' FOR DUAL TRANSMISSIONS.

OCCASIONALLY, ON A CITY STREET AT STOP SIGNAL OR STOP SIGN, VEHICLE FAILS TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP AS GAS PEDAL IS PRESSED. REVS TO HIGH RPM'S, AND AS TRANSMISSION CATCHES UP, THE VEHICLE LUNGES FORWARD VIOLENTLY, NEARLY CAUSING REAR END COLLISION ON SEVERAL DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. CONTINUES TO HAPPEN AFTER TWO SEPARATE RECALL/DCT PROGRAM UPDATES WITH HYUNDAI DEALER.

WHEN LEAVING A STOP SIGN THE CAR WOULD NOT SPEED UP. HAD THE TRANSMISSION SOFTWARE UPDATED FROM A RECALL, BUT THE PROBLEM KEEPS HAPPENING. WAS ALMOST HIT BY ANOTHER VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM.

10/12/16: BROUGHT IN FOR RECALL OF DCT AFTER CALLING TO SCHEDULE A SERVICE TO ADDRESS THE TRANSMISSION NOT ACCELERATING PROPERLY AND HESITATING TO CHANGE GEARS. 12/29/16. RETURNED FOR SAME ISSUE WITH TRANSMISSION. SERVICE PERFORMED A 2ND RECALL ON AN UPGRADE TO TRANSMISSION FOR SAME ISSUE. 2/23/17 RETURNED AGAIN FOR SAME ISSUE. NO MAINTENANCE PERFORMED. STATED THAT ALL WAS FUNCTIONING PROPERLY AND THAT IS HOW A DCT SHOULD RESPOND. 4/25/17. RETURNED AGAIN FOR SAME ISSUE. STATED NO PROBLEMS EXISTS. ENGINEER WAS GOING TO BE CONTACTED TO PERFORM TEST DRIVE AND FURTHER INVESTIGATE ISSUES. ENGINEER CONTACTED AND REFUSED TO COME AND PERFORM TEST DRIVE. 4/26/17: CONTACTED HYUNDAI CONSUMER AFFAIRS (COMPLAIN #10185159). CASE MANAGER ASSIGNED. STATED I WOULD HEAR WITHIN 3-5 DAYS. NEVER HEARD. 4/28/17: AFTER SPEAKING WITH AN ATTORNEY, SENT A CERTIFIED LETTER TO HYUNDAI 112 RE: VEHICLE AND WANTING TO TERMINATE LEASE B/C THEY CAN'T FULFILL SAFETY AND REPAIRS. (HEARD BACK FROM FRAN IN SERVICE...NO RECOURSE OFFERED) 5/4/17: CONTACTED CONSUMER AFFAIRS FOR A 2ND TIME. NO RESULTS. LEFT MESSAGE FOR CASE MANAGER AND HER MANAGER. 5/4/17: SPOKE TO FRAN (112 HYUNDAI) WAITING TO HEAR OF APPOINTMENT WITH ENGINEER. 5/10/17: CONTACTED BY CLAIMS TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT ON 5/18 WITH ENGINEER AND REGIONAL MANAGER. 5/18/17: PRIOR TO TEST DRIVE, ENGINEER CLAIMED THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE AND THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS DESIGNED TO PERFORM AS IT WAS. COMPLETED TEST DRIVE WITH ENGINEER WHILE HE

2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON 1.6T WITH THE 7SPD DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION REFUSED TO RESPOND TO ACCELERATOR PEDAL AFTER STARTING FROM A DEAD STOP. SITUATION: STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION WAITING TO TURN LEFT, PROCEEDED TO ACCELERATE FROM THE STOP TO TURN LEFT THROUGH THE INTERSECTION AT ~5MPH AND HALF WAY THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE TURN/INTERSECTION THE CAR REFUSED TO RESPOND TO GAS PEDAL INPUT FOR INCREASED SPEED. I TRIED DEPRESSING THE GAS PEDAL MORE, BUT NO RESPONSE. I COMPLETELY LET OFF THE PEDAL AND THEN RE-APPLIED AND THE CAR STARTED TO RESPOND WITH REGULAR POWER DELIVERY WITH THE TRANSMISSION SHUDDERING A BIT. CARS APPROACHING THE INTERSECTION HAD TO WAIT FOR ME TO GET THROUGH, LUCKILY IT WASN'T EXTREMELY BUSY WITH FAST MOVING TRAFFIC. I FEEL THIS 'RANDOM' LACK OF RESPONSE TO THE GAS PEDAL POSES A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. THE TUCSON HAS HAD THE LATEST T1B DCT UPDATE (16-01-057) APPLIED AT THE DEALER SINCE 3/11/17. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THE CAR HAS GIVEN ME ISSUES ACCELERATING OR CONTINUING TO ACCELERATE. TRANSMISSION ALSO EXPERIENCES INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS WHEN ASKING TO DOWNSHIFT UNDER 3/4-FULL THROTTLE CONDITIONS - IT OFTEN WILL HALF ENGAGE AND FEEL LIKE IT'S SLIPPING IN GEAR EVENTUALLY APPLYING THE RIGHT GET WITH NO SLIP. THIS CREATES QUESTIONABLE PASSING ON THE HIGHWAY SINCE YOU NEVER REALLY KNOW WHAT THE TRANSMISSION IS GOING TO DO WHEN REQUESTING IT TO PERFORM MULTIPLE DOWNSHIFTS UNDER POWER.

THE 2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON ECO WITH 1.6T TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. VEHICLE TRANSMISSION WILL FAIL TO MOVE VEHICLE FORWARD AT TIMES AND HAS CAUSED US TO BE STUCK IN AN INTERSECTION NUMEROUS TIMES EVEN THOUGH VEHICLE SAYS ITS IN DRIVE. RPMS JUST REV TO REDLINE BUT VEHICLE WILL NOT MOVE UNTIL YOU LET OFF THE GAS AND LET IT IDLE BACK DOWN TO IDLE ENGINE SPEED. THEN YOU CAN TRY IT AGAIN AND IT DRIVES NORMAL. ONE TIME HAD TO SHUT ENTIRE VEHICLE OFF IN THE INTERSECTION AND RESTART IT TO GET IT TO MOVE.

10-31-2015 PURCHASED VEHICLE. 10-31-2015. 3-2-2016 MILEAGE 1691, RETURNED VEHICLE BACK TO HYUNDAI DEALER FOR ECM ENGINE CONTROL MODULE & TCM TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE SOFTWARE UPDATES PER TY8 HARD SHIFTING COMPLAINTS. 7-22-2016 CAMPAIGN 145 SECONDARY HOOD LATCH REPAIR. 10-21-2017 CAMPAIGN 149 ECM & TCM SOFTWARE UPDATE FOR DCT PROBLEMS. 5-2-2017 T1B ECM SOFTWARE UPDATE FOR DCT PROBLEMS. SOFTWARE UPDATE IMPROVES TRANSMISSION JERKING FROM 0 TO 15 MPH. 5-21-2017 MILEAGE 12,500, OUTSIDE TEMP 70 DEG F, STRANDED ON INTERSTATE, TRANSMISSION IN DRIVE BUT NOT VEHICLE NOT MOVING. VEHICLE TOWED TO DEALER. HYUNDAI SERVICE FINDS FAULTY FUEL TANK PRESSURE SENSOR AND BAD WIRING HARNESS. REPLACES BOTH. 5-23-2017 PICKED UP VEHICLE AND DROVE NORMAL ON WAY HOME. I HAVE LOST CONFIDENCE IN THIS VEHICLE AND WISHED I HAD PURCHASED THE SE MODEL WITH THE 6 SPEED CONVENTIONAL TRANSMISSION AND NOT THE 7 SPEED DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION. TIME WILL TELL IF THIS LAST REPAIR WILL SOLVE THE NUMEROUS DCT PROBLEMS.

I HAVE HAD MY HYUNDAI FOR ONE YEAR AND 2 MONTHS. ABOUT A FEW MONTHS IN I HAD PROBLEMS WITH AFTER STOPPING I TRIED TO HIT THE GAS AND THE CAR WOULD REV UP AND THEN NOT GO ANYWHERE. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO HYUNDAI 4 TIMES NOW BECAUSE THEY HAVE HAD RECALLS AND TRIED TO GET IT FIXED. AFTER THE 3RD TIME I BROUGHT IT IN IT SEEMED TO BE WORKING FINE. I RECENTLY WENT IN TO GET AN OIL CHANGE AND THEY FIXED SOMETHING HOWEVER THAT CAUSED MY CAR TO BE MESSED UP AGAIN BUT THIS TIME WORSE. I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY WHERE IT IS 75 MILES AND MY CAR ALL OF A SUDDEN STARTED SLOWING DOWN. I HIT THE GAS AND IT WOULD NOT GO. ITS LIKE IT KEPT JUMPING IN AND OUT OF GEAR. IT DID THIS FOR THE WHOLE 45 MINS IT TOOK ME TO GET TO WORK ON A BUSY HIGHWAY. IT EVEN WENT AS LOW AS 50 MILES AN HR IN A 75. I HAVE SEVERAL VIDEOS I TOOK SHOWING IT SLOWING DOWN AND THEN REVING UP AND NOT MOVING WHEN HITTING THE GAS. I WAS SO SCARED IT WOULD STALL OUT ALL TOGETHER ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNSAFE AND I WAS SCARED I WAS GOING TO HIT.

ANY RECALLS ON THE 7 SPEED DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION THAT IS IN MY LEMON ?

HORRIBLE ACCELERATION HESITATION...VERY UNSAFE....DEPRESS GAS PEDAL AND NO RESPONSE FOR A FEW SECONDS.

FAULTY DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO HESITATE WITHOUT WARNING WHEN THE GAS PEDAL IS PUSHED. THIS HAPPENS AT RANDOM TIMES AND WITH DIFFERENT DEGREES OF SEVERITY. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON MANY OCCASIONS AND CREATES A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD AS THE ACCELERATION MAY NOT BE THERE WHEN NEEDED. HYUNDAI HAS KNOWN THEIR DCT IS FAULTY AND THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, INCLUDING 2 RECALLS FOR THIS ISSUE. LIVES ARE AT RISK FOR NOT ONLY THE DRIVER BUT OTHER DRIVERS AS WELL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, IT JERKED WHEN THE CONTACT REMOVED HIS FOOT FROM THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT IT FELT AS IF THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL. IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE JERKING CONDITION WAS A FEATURE OF THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE PRESENCE OF A DUAL CLUTCH. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED AND THE CLUTCH ACTUATOR WAS REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 17,000.

THE TRANSMISSION DOESN'T ENGAGE AFTER A STOP, LAGS WHEN ACCELERATING ON CITY STREETS, AND OFTEN STUTTERS WHEN ACCELERATING IN TURNS OR ON CITY STREETS. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE INTO THE DEALER FOR COMPUTER UPDATES THAT WERE SUPPOSED TO FIX THE PROBLEM TWICE AND THE PROBLEMS KEEP OCCURRING. RECENTLY, THIS LED TO MY ALMOST BEING HIT WHEN I WAS TRYING TO PULL OUT IN TRAFFIC AND THE VEHICLE WOULDN'T MOVE THEN SUDDENLY A QUITE A FEW SECONDS LATER IT LURCHED FORWARD. I HAD TO HIT THE BREAKS TO KEEP FROM BEING HIT. THIS HAS HAPPENED BEFORE, BUT THIS TIME A CAR ALMOST HIT ME. I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING THIS CAR.

WHEN THE CAR SLOWS DOWN AND THEN SPEEDS UP IN TRAFFIC, TURNING AT STOP SIGNS OR ON STREET LIGHTS, OR PULLING OUT ONTO THE STREET, THE ENGINE WILL HESITATE/FREEZE UP.. THIS RESULTS IN A DELAY OF MOVEMENT FOLLOWED BY THE CAR LUNGING FORWARD WHEN IT DOES BEGIN TO DRIVE AGAIN, CREATING A VERY UNSAFE AND TERRIFYING SITUATION. I INITIALLY TOOK IT IN FOR THE RECALL ON OCTOBER 6, 2016. SINCE THEN I HAVE BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED IT AT TO FIX THE ISSUE TWO MORE TIMES. WHEN I CALLED BACK THE FOURTH TIME I WAS TOLD TO CONTACT HYUNDAI CORPORATE. HYUNDAI CORPORATE HAS ONLY TOLD ME TO NOT DRIVE IN ECO MODE AND TO RETURN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO LEARN ABOUT DRIVING IN THE THREE DIFFERENT MODES. I HAVE ALSO DONE THAT AND BOTH OF THE MEN IN THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT LOOKED VERY CONFUSED AND TOLD ME HYUNDAI DOES NOT TELL THEM TO HAVE CUSTOMERS DRIVE IN ANY PARTICULAR MODE. WHAT THEY DID TELL ME WAS THAT GIVEN MY SITUATION AND IT HAPPENING IN ALL THREE MODES I SHOULD USE THE MODES WHICH FEELS THE SAFEST FOR ME. THIS IS IN NO WAY A SOLUTION AS ALL THREE MODES ARE POTENTIALLY LIFE THREATENING AND I EXPERIENCE THIS MULTIPLE TIMES EVERY SINGLE TIME I DRIVE MY CAR.

I HAVE A 2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON TURBO. WHEN I FIRST GOT IT I THOUGHT THE GAS PEDAL WAS STICKING BUT COME TO FIND OUT IT WAS A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. THE TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN "UPDATED " TWICE BUT THE CAR CONTINUES TO CHOKE WHEN YOU STEP ON THE GAS AND THEN LURCH FORWARD. I BELIEVE I AM GOING TO REAR END SOMEONE. EVERYTIME I VISIT THE DEALERSHIP I COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND THEIR SOLUTION IS TO "DRIVE IT LIKE A STICK SHIFT". I BOUGHT AN AUTOMATIC........

DANGEROUS TRANSMISSION. WHILIE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION GOING DOWN AN ON-RAMP TO GET ONTO THE INTERSTATE I PROCEEDED TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT I DID NOT HAVE ANY POWER. THE CAR WAS STILL ON BUT THERE WAS NOT ANY ACCELERATION, I KEPT PRESSING AND PRESSING AND NOTHING. SO I PULLED OFF THE ROAD SO A SEMI WOULDN'T RUN OVER ME. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND THEN WAITED ABOUT A MINUTE. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR MOVING A LITTLE BIT AT A TIME. ONCE I REACHED 70MPH IT WAS LIKE IT WOULDN'T SHIFT GEARS. SO I DECIDED TO DRIVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. WHILE STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT I PROCEEDED INTO THE INTERSECTION ONLY TO HAVE IT NOT BE ABLE TO MOVE ANYMORE SO I WAS BLOCKING TRAFFIC. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND DID A DIAGNOSTIC ONLY TO FIND OUT THERE WERE NO ISSUES. CLEARLY THIS FUNCTION DOES NOT DO IT'S JOB IN REPORTING THE PROBLEM. THE SERVICE MANAGER WAS NOT ABLE TO GET ME AN APPOINTMENT UNTIL 5 DAYS LATER TO LOOK AT IT. ONLY TO FIND OUT THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THIS ISSUE. I THOUGHT IT WAS IN MY HEAD BECAUSE THIS STARTED WHEN I ONLY HAD THE CAR A MONTH. YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN. ALSO, THE CAR WILL LUNGE AT LOW SPEEDS AND SORT OF BUCK.

DANGEROUS VEHICLE - SAME THING AS PREVIOUS COMPLAINT. YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN YOU HAVE ACCELERATION AND ARE FEARFUL OF GOING INTO TRAFFIC. ALSO ON A HOT DAY THE AIR CONDITION WOULD NOT WORK AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE.

SAME COMPLAINT AS BEFORE THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE AT DEALERSHIP. THERE IS NOT A RECALL ON THIS VIN NUMBER EVEN THOUGH IT WAS MANUFACTURED DURING THE DATES OF THE RECALL I FOUND OUT. I AM SERIOUSLY THINKING ABOUT HIRING A LAWYER BECAUSE I DO NOT WANT A CAR THAT IS NOT SAFE FOR MY GRANDCHILDREN. THIS TIME AGAIN WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHEN GOING INTO TRAFFIC. IT IS VERY TERRIFYING.

I HAVE HAD TWO EMERGENCY RECALLS DUE TO TRANSMISSION SLIPPING, JERKING AT SLOW SPEEDS, ALMOST STALLING OUT AND ACTCELLERATING ABNORMALLY WITH THE RPM'S RACING. DURING EACH RECALL, THE DEALERSHIP COMPLETES AN UPDATED SOFTWARE ON THE TRANSMISSION AND WHEN I LEAVE THE DEALERSHIP, MY VEHICLE NOTICEABLY DRIVES MUCH SMOOTHER AND NORMAL. A FEW DAYS LATER, THE TUCSON TRANSMISSION PROBLEM BEGINS ALL OVER AGAIN LIKE THE IT ACTED BEFORE. I FEEL THIS 2016 HYUNDAI TUSCON ECO 1.6LT SUV IS A DANGER TO MYSELF AND OTHER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD. WHAT IS MY RECOURSE ON THIS CONTINUOUS TRANSMISSION PROBLEM? IT HAS ABOUT 11K IN MILEAGE. CAN THIS VEHICLE BE LEMON LAW'D AS I HAVE OWNED IT FOR UNDER A YEAR?

THERE ARE SEVERAL PROBLEMS. THE DUAL CLUTCH AN AUTOMATED MANUAL TRANSMISSION ON MY 1.6-LITER TURBO VERSION HESITATES UP TO SEVERAL SECONDS WHEN ACCELERATING, THIS CAN OCCUR WHEN TURNING, ACCELERATING FROM A FULL STOP, MOVING AT A SLOW SPEED 1-5MPH. THE TACHOMETER REVS UP BUT THE CAR STAYS STATIONARY. THIS HAPPENS MULTIPLE TIMES A WEEK. THE SCARIEST TIME WAS WHEN I WAS ATTEMPTING TO MERGE ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE CAR DID NOT ACCELERATE AND CARS HAD TO SWERVE TO AVOID HITTING ME.. ADDITIONALLY IF YOU ARE IN BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC INCHING ALONG, IT HESITATES TO ACCELERATE AND WHEN IT FINALLY DOES, YOU'RE AFRAID YOU WILL HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF YOU. I HAVE FOUND WHEN INCHING ALONG 1-5 MPH DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC THAT I MUST LEAVE 1-2 CAR LENGTHS IN FRONT OF ME DUE TO THE LURCHING AND HESITATION. SUPPOSEDLY THE RECALL IN SEPTEMBER 2016 FIXED THIS ISSUE BUT IT DID NOT. WHEN I CONTACTED HYUNDAI MOTOR COMPANY HEADQUARTERS, THEY TOLD ME THE CAR IS WORKING AS DESIGNED. SO THEY DESIGNED IT TO LURCH AND NOT ACCELERATE? DOESN'T SEEM RIGHT TO ME. I HAVE DOCUMENTATION OF MY CONTACTS WITH THE LOCAL DEALER AND CORPORATE, BUT NOT WITH ME TODAY.

VEHICLE HESITATES, JERKS, JUMPS WHEN STARTING UP FROM A SLOW OR STOPPED POSITION. WHEN CROSSING TRAFFIC, TURNING LEFT, I HAVE TO BE CERTAIN I HAVE PLENTY OF ROOM IN CASE THE CAR HESITATES. EXTREMELY UNSAFE! I PURCHASED THE CAR 7/29/2016 AND I HAVE HAD THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP 5 TIMES FOR THE SAME PROBLEM SINCE THEN. THE FIRST 4 TIMES I HAD THE CAR IN THEY UPDATED THE TRANSMISSION SOFTWARE. ON ONE OCCASION THERE HAD BEEN AN ACTUAL RECALL, HOWEVER IT DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. ON THE LAST TIME I HAD THE CAR IN, I ASKED THE SERVICE MANAGER TO RIDE WITH ME. THE CAR DID HESITATE, JERK COMING OUT OF A STOP AT A STOP SIGN AND HE TOLD ME THAT WAS HOW THE TRANSMISSION WAS SUPPOSED TO ACT AND THAT I NEEDED TO LEARN HOW TO DRIVE THE CAR. IT WOULD PREFORM BETTER IN THE SPORT MODE. THE CAR CONTINUES TO REPEAT THE SAME HESITATION ON AN ALMOST DAILY BASIS. I WILL BE CONTACTING HYUNDAI CORPORATE TO SEE IF VEHICLE IS COVERED UNDER LEMON LAW.

I PURCHASED THE CAR IN NOVEMBER 2015. I ALWAYS HAD A SLIGHT JERKING OF THE CAR WHILE IN TRAFFIC OR TAKING OFF FROM A STOP SIGN. I WOULD SAY TOWARDS THE END OF THE SUMMER OF 2016 IT GOT MUCH WORSE. TO THE POINT WHERE I'M TERRIFIED TO DRIVE IT IN TRAFFIC. I COMMUTE ALMOST 40 MILES EACH WAY TO WORK EVERY DAY AND MY HEART IS IN MY THROAT EVERY TIME I'M BEHIND THE WHEEL IN TRAFFIC AFRAID I'M GOING TO GET REAR ENDED. HYUNDAI CAME OUT WITH THE RECALL ON THE DCT (DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION) THAT WAS SUPPOSE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I HAD MY CAR SERVICED FOR THE RECALL IN OCTOBER 2016 AND IT NEVER FIXED THE PROBLEM. I BROUGHT IT IN TO GET SERVICED AGAIN ON APRIL 1, 2017 FOR THE SAME EXACT RECALL AND HERE I AM AGAIN STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE A INFANT AND I AM TERRIFIED TO HAVE MY FAMILY IN THIS CAR.

WE PURCHASED A 2016 TUCSON LIMITED ON BLACK FRIDAY OF 2016. THIS VEHICLE WAS EQUIPPED WITH THE AUTONOMOUS EMERGENCY BRAKING (AEB) SAFETY OPTION, AS IS ADVERTISED AND DEMONSTRATED ON THE HYUNDAI WEBSITE WITH VIDEO. WE EXPERIENCED A MINOR FRONT-END COLLISION AT APPROXIMATELY 8-10 MPH WHILE MERGING INTO TRAFFIC AT A YIELD FROM HIGHWAY EXIT RAMP. BASED ON THE ADVERTISED FUNCTION AND VIDEO, SHOULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED BY THE AEB. SUBSEQUENT TO THIS COLLISION, WE BEGAN SEEING INTERMITTENT WARNING NOTIFICATIONS TO CLEAN THE FRONT RADAR EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS NO DIRT OR ANY OBSTRUCTION. THESE MESSAGES WOULD SPONTANEOUSLY CLEAR AFTER APPROXIMATELY 30-60 SECONDS. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP TO BE EVALUATED. THE VEHICLE WAS WITH THE DEALERSHIP FOR ALMOST TWO WEEKS AND AFTER EXTENSIVE TESTING - WHICH INCLUDED MULTIPLE ROAD TESTS, MULTIPLE SIMULATED OBSTRUCTION DETECTION, A PEDESTRIAN CHALLENGE BY THE SERVICE MANAGER, LITERATURE REVIEWS, AND AN ONSITE EVALUATION FROM HYUNDAI ENGINEERING ' AND AFTER ALL OF THESE EVALUATIONS, THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WAS ALSO UNABLE TO TRIGGER THE AEB UNDER ANY CONDITIONS ALTHOUGH THE ELECTRONIC SCAN INDICATES THAT THE RADAR IS OPERATIVE. THEY HAVE RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO US WITH THE STATEMENT THAT IT IS FUNCTIONING AS INTENDED. THE AEB IS NOT DEMONSTRABLY FUNCTIONING, REGARDLESS OF RADAR OPERATION.

AFTER A STOP AND WHEN YOU STEP ON THE GAS TO GO, THE CAR WILL HESITATE ,SOMETIMES FOR 3 TO 4 SECONDS. THIS HAS HAPPEN ABOUT 7 OR 8 TIMES. IT IS A BAD FEELING WHEN THIS HAPPEN WHEN PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC. HAVE BEEN TO THE DEALER AND SERVICE MANGER HAS RODE WITH ME, BUT WE CAN NOT DUPLICATE WHEN HE IS IN THE CAR. I HAVE ABOUT 7,000 MILES ON THE CAR. THE CAR'S COMPUTER HAS BEEN RESET TWICE SO FAR, NO HELP YET.

I HAVE ENTERED A COMPLAINT HERE A FEW MONTH AGO. I HAD MY HYUDAI IN THE SHOP FOR 2 MONTHS WAITING FOR COMPUTER UPDATES TO THE TRANSMISSION. AFTER HAVING THE UPDATES, THE CAR SEEMED TO RUN FINE FOR A WHILE. I AM NOW AGAIN HAVING ISSUES WITH HESITATION. I WAS ALMOST REAR-ENDED AGAIN PULLING AWAY FROM A TRAFFIC LIGHT. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THEY ARE SEEING WHEN YOU DRIVE WITH THE CAR IN ECO MODE THAT THERE IS HESITATION. PROBLEM IS, I NEVER USE ANY OF THE MODES.... THEIR ANSWER WELL EITHER CALL HYUDAI, OR DEAL WITH IT............... THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ALMOST A YEAR NOW.

SPORADICALLY WHEN YOU STEP ON GAS TO ACCELERATE, IT WILL JUST "BOG DOWN" AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE. THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES BOTH AT AROUND 20 MPH OR AROUND 55 MPH. IT WILL NOT RECOVER UNLESS YOU TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR COMPLETELY AND WAIT FOR SEVERAL SECONDS. I TRIED ONCE WHEN IT DID THIS, TO JUST KEEP THE ACCELERATOR DOWN TO SEE IF IT WOULD RECOVER. IT DID NOT, IT JUST SLOWED DOWN TILL IT STOPPED.

1.6T TRANSMISSION NOT PERFORMING PROPERLY. CAR JERKS, PAUSES, AND QUITS. HAVE ALMOST BEEN REAR ENDED WHEN VEHICLE PAUSED. NEARLY MISSED HITTING ANOTHER CAR WHEN MINE ACCELERATED FORWARD UNEXPECTEDLY. WHEN TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY AT 60 MILES PER HOUR CAR JUST QUIT. HAD TO COAST TO SHOULDER. THEN RESTARTED CAR. HAVE HAD TO DEALERSHIP EIGHT DIFFERENT TIMES. EVEN TOOK TO A DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP. BOTH SAY, "OPERATING AS DESIGNED". ONE SERVICE MANAGER EVEN SAID, "IT'S A POOR DESIGN". MY WIFE WILL NO LONGER DRIVE VEHICLE, AND I AM AFRAID TO MYSELF.

2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE STILL PERIODICALLY HESITATES AND ACCELERATES AFTER RECALL REPAIRS. *SMD

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL BUT THE VEHICLE DID NOT MOVE. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO BE DRIVEN. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 9,204. UPDATED 07/11/17*LJ *CN

TRANSMISSION ACCELERATION LAG/UNPREDICTABILITY AND POOR SHIFTING CAUSES UNSAFE CONDITIONS. PRIMARILY WHEN STARTING FROM STOPPED POSITION BUT WHEN DRIVING ALSO. ENGINE WILL REV BUT VEHICLE WON'T MOVE AND SUDDENLY IT WILL SHIFT INTO GEAR SOMETIMES LUNGING FORWARD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE THROUGH AN INTERSECTION AT 5 MPH, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,700.

WHEN I ACCELERATE THERE IS NO POWER FOR 1-2 SECONDS, AND THIS IS NOT THE SAME THING AS THE SLIGHT DELAY EXPERIENCED AS THE CAR CHANGES GEARS. IT IS A COMPLETE LACK OF POWER EVEN WHEN THE GAS PEDAL IS PUSHED. VERY ALARMING. THE PROBLEM IS BECOMING MORE FREQUENT OVER THE PAST TWO MONTHS OF USE (1ST TIME IN JANUARY - LATER TIMES IN FEB. AND MARCH--WINTER IN THE MIDATLANTIC REGION). HAPPENS AT SLOWER SPEEDS (ACCELERATING AT 25-30MPH TO CROSS LANES OF CITY TRAFFIC), AND IT HAPPENS AT HIGHER SPEEDS (ACCELERATING AT 50-65MPH TO MERGE INTO INTERSTATE HIGHWAY TRAFFIC OR OVERTAKE A SLOWER CAR IN SAME LANE ON INTERSTATE). BECAUSE I DO NOT DRIVE THE CAR VERY OFTEN, AND MOST OF MY TRIPS ARE AT SLOW SPEEDS FOR SHORT DISTANCES, I INITIALLY OVERLOOKED/DISMISSED THE PROBLEM. BUT IS IT BECOMING MORE NOTICEABLE (LONGER PERIOD WITHOUT ACCELERATION POWER), MORE FREQUENT (OCCURS MORE OFTEN WHEN USING THE CAR) AND DANGEROUS (CAN HAPPEN ANYWHERE, ANY TIME AND AT ANY SPEED). I SUSPECT I AM REPORTING THIS PROBLEM LATER THAN OTHER TUCSON CAR OWNERS BECAUSE I DO NOT DRIVE MUCH. I'VE OWNED THE CAR FOR 11 MONTHS AND IT HAS 3,700 MILES ON IT. PROBLEMS STARTED SHOWING UP AROUND 3,500 MILES.

THE CAR WAS PURCHASED JUNE 1, 2016. FOUND THAT THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT ENGAGE CORRECTLY FROM A STOP. THE CAR REVS AND DOESN'T MOVE THEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN IT TAKES OFF. YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT IT GOING TO HAPPEN. AND YOU NEVER KNOW HOW FAST IT IS GOING TO GO ONCE THE TRANSMISSION ENGAGES. THERE HAVE BEEN MANY TIMES THAT I HAVE FELT LIKE I COULD HIT SOMEONE BECAUSE THE CAR "TAKES OFF" ON ITS OWN. I AM HESITANT TO TAKE OFF IN TRAFFIC BECAUSE I NEVER KNOW IF THE TRANSMISSION IS GOING TO ENGAGE CORRECTLY. THEY SAY IT IS THE DUEL CLUTCH CAUSING THE ISSUE. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES. 10/7/16 RECALL 16-01-038, DCT LOGIC UPDATE OPERATION 61C077R0, 16-01-057, 11/18/16 DCT UPDATE OPERATION 60C095RI, ALSO RESET ADATT VALVE, 2/10/17 TOOK THE CAR IN BECAUSE STILL HAVING SAME ISSUE, WAS TOLD "THAT'S HOW THE CAR DRIVES". I HAVE ALSO REPORTED THE SITUATION TO HYUNDAI, CASE #10008011 AND THEY TOOK MY INFORMATION BUT HAVEN'T GOTTEN BACK TO ME. I AM AFRAID TO TAKE THE CAR ON EXTENDED TRIPS BECAUSE I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE CAR. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET HURT OR EVEN WORSE IF THIS SITUATION IS NOT RESOLVED OR THESE CARS AREN'T TAKEN OFF THE ROAD.

DEALER HAS TRIED TO FIX CAR THREE TIMES. AT TIMES CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE AT ALL.ENGINE RPM WILL INCREASE BUT CAR WILL NOT MOVE. VERY DANGEROUS..I TAKE MY GRANDDAUGHTER TO SCHOOL AND THIS SCARES THE CRAP OUT OF ME.ESPECIALLY IN INTERSECTIONS.OTHER TIMES TRANSMISSION SHUDDERS AND OR JUMPS OUT OF GEAR.A COMPLAINT HAS BEEN MADE BY ME TO HYUNDAI CORPORATE ON FEB 22 2016 I HAVE YET TO HEAR FROM THEM THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE THE CAR WAS NEW.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED FROM SUDDEN BRAKING, THE VEHICLE HESITATED TO RESPOND WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SOFTWARE RELATED TO THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE UPDATED. THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V280000 (POWER TRAIN, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM) HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,012.

SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE IN NOVEMBER 2015, THE VEHICLE HAS HAD DIFFICULTY SHIFTING AT LOWER SPEEDS AND ACCELERATING AT HIGHER SPEEDS. INITIALLY, THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME I JUST NEEDED TO GET USED TO DRIVING A TURBO. I HAVE HAD ALL THREE UPDATES DONE TO THE DUAL-CLUTCH TRANSMISSION. AFTERWARDS, IN JANUARY 2017, WHILE DRIVING IN THE CITY, THE VEHICLE DROPPED INTO NEUTRAL BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND GEAR. THE RPMS REVVED UP TO 4, BUT THE VEHICLE HAD A SUDDEN LOSS OF FORWARD MOMENTUM. BECAUSE I WAS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, THIS PRESENTED A SAFETY HAZARD TO ME. THE DEALERSHIP RE-PERFORMED THE DECEMBER 2016 UPDATE THE FIRST PART OF FEBRUARY 2017 AND CAUSED A FULL SYSTEM FAILURE REQUIRING MANUAL REPROGRAMMING. IT THEN RELEASED THE VEHICLE BACK TO ME. AFTER TWO DAYS, THE SAME THING HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING IN THE CITY. I WAS AGAIN IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AND AFRAID ABOUT BEING REAR-ENDED. WHEN THE CAR REENGAGED AFTER THESE FAILURES, IT THEN SURGED FORWARD. THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT AND THEREFORE UNPREDICTABLE AND UNSAFE. THE DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME IT HAS NOT BEEN UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND THUS HAS NOTHING TO FIX. ADDITIONALLY, IT HAS BEEN IN TOUCH WITH HYUNDAI CORPORATE WHOSE POSITION IS THAT THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED WITH THE DECEMBER 2016 UPDATE. AND, SINCE THE DEALER HASN'T DUPLICATED IT, THEY HAVE NO FURTHER OBLIGATION TO ME. ACCORDING TO THE DEALERSHIP, HYUNDAI CORPORATE KNOWS OF NO OTHER CAR IN THE NATION STILL HAVING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS AFTER THE DECEMBER 2016 UPDATE. IN ADDITION TO

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHILE DRIVING, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE; HOWEVER, THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS A TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE SOFTWARE UPDATE THAT MAY REMEDY THE ISSUE. THE SOFTWARE WAS UPDATED, BUT FAILED TO REMEDY THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS INTERMITTENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V628000 (POWER TRAIN, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,000.

WHEN MY VEHICLE IS IN TRAFFIC OR IN A TRAFFIC LIGHT AND I HAVE TO STOP, WHEN I ACCELERATE TO MOVE THEY WON'T MOVE AFTER I INCREASE THE REVOLUTIONS OR AFTER FEW SECONDS. ITS FEELS LIKE THE CLUTCH DON'T ENGAGE PROPERLY.

ISSUE WITH THE DCT TRANSMISSION ON THE 2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON SPORT. AFTER THE FIRST UPDATE THE ISSUE SEEMED TO HAPPEN LESS OFTEN WHICH WAS COMPLETED BACK IN SEPTEMBER. NEW UPDATE IN JANUARY HAS MADE THE ISSUE MORE PREVALENT AGAIN THOUGH NOT AS BAD AS WHEN ORIGINALLY BOUGHT. ISSUE IS NOTICEABLE HESITATION WHEN PULLING OUT FROM A STOP, ESPECIALLY IF TURNING FROM A STOP OR PULLING OUT QUICKLY. RPS WILL REV AND THEN CAR WILL FINALLY MATCH RPMS AND TAKE OFF SUDDENLY.
