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.

The check engine light goes on and off every few weeks and it would stay off for a few days! The last code I had was P0420 that came up and I had a different one before that and it was for the catalytic converter! So I had already made the appointment to get it checked out and it was a faulty catalytic converter! Luckily my car is still under warranty I didn’t have to pay out of pocket! Had the catalytic converter changed last year and again today almost a year apart!

The paint on the hood of my 2019 Hyundai Tucson started peeling in August 2023. I took it to a Hyundai dealership in October to see if they could fix it. The dealership said it was a manufacturer's problem and my paint insurance was not going to cover it. The employee told me that he would submit a claim to Hyundai, asking if corporate would cover part of the cost. I have yet to receive a response.

On November 8, 2023 my check engine began flashing and my car lost Speed/Full power. I knew there was a knock sensor issue because I had this replaced in May of 2023 in order to comply with extended warranty services. I immediately pulled over to see if there was an identifiable issue. I was able to make it to a local orileys and they did a diagnostic check. It gave the p1326 code which I researched and found this to be the dreaded "needs a new engine code". I wasn't able to get an appointment until November 21st with a dealership. The one in my area wasn't taking anymore due to have over 100 vehicles with the same issue. My car has been at a dealership now since my November 21 st. It's extremely difficult to get a call from these people with any information. I called Hyundai and got a case manager, but that wasn't much help either. He said the dealership was very difficult for him to get in contact with as well. After numerous attempts and no returned calls or texts, I was finally asked for my maintenance records which I sent. I have all oil change records which showed the maintenance was done and in the correct manner and time frame. On January 10th I was told that my issue was not the rod bearing issue that is covered under warranty, but instead it was a piston slap in my engine and that Hyundai had agreed to pay for half of my engine replacement. My cost would be $3,200 plus they had already charged me $250.00 for a battery replacement. I feel this is Hyundais way of skir

On [XXX], my wife and I were traveling westbound on [XXX] in the left hand lane approximately 30 miles from Lincoln, NE. I noticed blue smoke coming from my exhaust. I had to maneuver to avoid traffic in the right hand lane to exit. The engine and oil light came on about 30 yards from where we were able to stop safely. There was a large amount of oil on the ground under the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to the nearest dealership in Lincoln, NE. On [XXX], the service manager called and asked who last changed my oil. He explained that the oil plug "was left loose, upon diagnosis for the oil light being on, removing the underbody shield to drain the oil out to inspect it, the plug fell out as it was laying on the shield." Prior to the vehicle becoming disabled there was not any indication of the oil plug being lose such as oil residue on the car or leakage appearing in any driveway. The oil was last changed in early September with over 5000 miles driven. The oil change was completed by Walmart prior to the issuance of the TSB #[XXX] to replace the one time use crush type gasket and to confirm no old washer is stuck in the opening. The dealership has not submitted this for a warranty repair and claims Walmart is the responsible party. The TSB #[XXX] indicates that if engine damage occurs from not following the guidelines is subject to warranty chargeback. However, at the time of the oil change, TSB #[XXX] was not yet issued. It seems odd that there was no oil leakage or oil resi

I was just entering the expressway about 70 miles from my home, and the engine light came on in the vehicle. I could not accelerate to more than 52 mph even with the pedal to the floor. I had to drive home in the right-hand lane with my hazards on. This was the second time this happened within a month. The first time the dealer replaced the knock sensor after one week. It ran fine for 3 weeks and then the exact same thing happened in exactly the same place 70 miles from my home. My car has been in the shop for a week now, and they still don't know what the issue is, even though they are communicating with Hyundai. I see a pattern here after reading so many similar complaints from other people owning a Hyundai Tucson.

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.

Intermittent starting problem. Sometimes it won't start at all after as many as 12 attempts. Sometimes, it starts after several attempts. The weather does not seem to affect the problem. The EPB light has come on an stayed on after a non-starting episode but it goes off again too. It is not safe to drive because I get stranded. After it gets towed, it ends up starting at the mechanic's shop. No one, including and especially Hyundai will try to isolate and diagnose the issue. The issue is mentioned often on Hyundai owner's posts on internet forums but definite solutions are not mentioned.

My 2019 HyandI Tucson’s engine light came on, so I checked my engine oil and found it to be 2 quarts low on oil, so I added the missing oil and come to find out that 2 weeks ago I had added one quart of oil. That mean in 3 weeks I added 3 quarts of motor oil. I brought the car to our HuandI dealership where we have our vehicles serviced and explained to them to check for engine oil leaks and when I came back to pick up the car, they told me there was no sign of any oil leaks. So if there are no leaks, where is all this oil going? The engine runs just fine but it’s burning much to much oil. I mean you shouldn’t have to put one quart of oil every week, that’s just crazy.. I will have to bring the car back to the dealership in Centereach NY., and tell them to check again, this car is driven locally by my wife and she never drives over 55 MPH, even on the expressway. This car was never abused. I have a 2004 Chevy Venture with 195 thousand and I never put oil in it, I just have it replaced every 3 thousand miles, that’s it, I did notice that we aren’t the only ones that have this problem with this model car, that’s insane. I may just have to write a letter to the CEO, if they can’t find the problem. Sincerely, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

On November 13, 2023 I was driving the vehicle and the check engine light came on and it went into "limp mode". I was well aware of what was happening because this is at least the 4th time this has occurred since owning the vehicle. It happened in Dec of 2022, Feb 2023, and again on July 6, 2023, The last time it happened the dealer had it for over a month and could not "reproduce" the problem, so I got the car back without anything really haven been done to fix it. Same as in Dec 2022 and Feb 2023. I had to fight to get the dealership to get me a "loaner" rental and had to pay for it out of my own pocket to start with. Eventually after many, many phone calls, voicemails, emails later - I did get reimbursed. But this did not happen until I email the President of Hyundai and all the executives of Hyundai. I didn't get the car back until a month later and still nothing was done. So here were are 3 months later and it's throwing the same issue/problem and I am back at square one. At this point in time, I am not interested in having it "diagnosed", all I want is for Hyundai to do a "buyback" so that I can get into a vehicle that I can trust to be reliable and not breaking down for no apparent reason every 2-3 months. This is totally ridiculous and the government needs to do more to hold Hyundai accountable for these pieces of crap cars they've put on the market. Irritated is not even the word. Will be calling the Western District Manager today as that is the last person I talked

Oil consumption issues. Presented at oil change with very little oil, no warning light, followed by a loss of a quart every month following. Contacted Hyundai for oil consumption test. Dealer said I would have to replace the oil pan gasket ($600)before they would start the test from Hyundai. Loss of power or engine seizing could be dangerous. I feel Hyundai shoud replace the engine and reimburse me for the oilpan gasket.

My engine light began blinking and the engine went into emergency mode on 3 separate occasions, and would not go over 40 mph; there was no prior warning. The first incident was in February of this year; the second was in April of this year, and the third occurrence was on 7/28. I purchased my car on 10/8/19 from Fred Beans Hyundai of Doylestown used, with about 12,000 miles on it. It now has 34,426 miles on it.

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.

Knock Senser failed? On Dec 11, 2022 I was merging onto the highway at 530pm rush hour. I merged over one lane and the car made a loud noise and died. Cars flying past me on both sides dodging me in limp mode. I merged back to the right, there was no shoulder area available, so I coasted and finally came to a clearing on the side. I don't know how we didn't get hit. I ended up on a connecting road to another highway, and the Tow company couldn't find us because I didn't know where we were. It took about 3 hours of waiting for service. I had the Hazard lights on until the battery died. There was no warning except for the loud rattling noise and then boom. The car was towed to CHapman Hyundai in Phoenix, it has taken 5 months to get it repaired. I have 5 months of car rental bills and they still have not reimbursed me.

On May 12 2023 I was driving my vehicle and heard a knocking sound that was unfamiliar. I pulled over and opened my hood and could hear the engine making a continuous knocking noise. I got back into my vehicle to take it to the closest mechanic and the vehicle failed after I had went barely a quarter of a mile. It took Hyundai almost 2.5 weeks to get an appointment with them and another week to have the car diagnosed. The service department called me and said the engine was bad and needed to be replaced. The car engine was still under warranty so my main concern was how long I had been without my vehicle and the rental car costs I was incurring. My vehicle was finally ready and fixed according to the service department. I went picked up my vehicle and started to drive home. As soon as I started to accelerate I noticed the car seemed to be delayed or was having difficulty accelerating. The ac also started hissing and blowing out hot air. I took the car back to the service department and had to wait another week. Finally get a call from Hyundai saying no issues were found and it passed all the tests. I go pick up the car and less then 24 hours later the car acceleration seems to be struggling and the car is having difficulty going past 50 mph. So now I’m back at square one taking my car that Hyundai says is fine back to Hyundai.

In June of 2023, my check engine light came on and my vehicle lost the ability to accelerate. I took it into the local Hyundai dealership who said it would take 3 months to look at and that this wasn’t a major issue. The car would not accelerate past 45 mph and could barely go up an incline. The dealership never even ran a diagnostic. I checked my oil dip stick and there was barely any oil on it. My vehicle isn’t due for an oil change until September. A local oil change business said I barely had one quart in the engine. They ran the codes and they came up as a P000B and a P1326. Dealership still hasn’t returned my call.

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 have been experiencing serious safety issues with the 2019 Hyundai Tucson I purchased that have been ongoing since February of 2023. The check engine light comes on, begins to flash, and the car goes into 'limp mode' and will not allow me to accelerate faster than 45/50 mph. Consequently, it will further stall on hills due to the inability to accelerate.

My car is burning oil at an abnormal fast rate. I have taken it in to the dealership and they couldn't find the reason for the abnormal increase in oil burning rate. They couldn't find any leaking of oil. I am constantly putting in oil before the 3000 or 3 month oil change is due. If I don't the check engine light comes on and my oil is low. I haven't ran it out of oil but this worries me. Due to persistence from me the dealership replaced the oil sensor but that didn't change anything in regards to the amount of oil this car uses. This started in 2021. My warranty has since expired and I haven't been able to afford taking the car back and fourth to the dealership. I have had it looked at several times without a resolution. We ended up purchasing an extended warranty but that doesn't cover this apparently so we have wasted our money with that and still the problem isn't resolved.

We have been told by our local Hyundai dealership that the car is burning oil and is unsafe to drive. The dealership recommended a full engine replacement and put in the request to Hyundai HQ who denied the request. The dealership then told us that we need to drive the car for at least 4,000 miles and bring the car in for 24hr - 48hr testing every 1,000 miles. This is our primary family car and we have been told by our own mechanic and the dealership service center that the car is not safe to drive and could be a fire risk. Yet, Hyundai HQ is insisting that we do this oil consumption test and risk our lives and the lives of our children.

*Inside of car smelt like urine upon start. Car went into limp mode. First trip to dealership, catalytic converter was replaced. After the 6th time to dealership for same issue, manufacture approved engine replacement. *The car went into limp mode which posed a safety risk to our family as well as other vehicles on the road.

Vehicle engine light has been on for months, it would come and go. I’ve taken it to Hyundai but they kept saying nothing comes up and maybe it was the gas cap needing to be changed. My car also burns oil TOO fast and the dealership has expressed concern. I’ve also been getting a front collision camera disabled message on the dashboard for the last two days. On 3/23/23, my Tucson not only start making a loud noise but the engine light is blinking and barely drives. I almost didn’t make it home safely or at all

While driving to work on Thursday, February 23 2023, the car suddenly turned off flashing the check engine light and oil light. I was driving on the palisades interstate parkway in New York and had enough momentum with the car to get off on the next exit. Once the car was safely off of the road, I opened the hood and pulled the dipstick because the oil light was flashing and it was smoking. The oil light never came on before with the car. The car also had the recall for the knock sensor replacement to avoid this engine failure. I called Hyundai and the salesperson directed me to have the car towed to the dealership at my expense. Once at the dealer ship, the service advisor explained that they have had several cars come in with the same issue and that they would get back to me. A couple days later, they explained that the engine had burned all the oil and that Hyundai would replace it. The issue here is that that was my only car. I have a job and a son while other duties to fulfill. I was explained that it would take a while to get a motor since they’ve had cars sitting with the same issue since December and that they also had a wait of double digits people for the next loaner. I did not get an eta of when I would have my car back or when I can get a loaner. They also will not cover rental fees for a rental car. I have been paying for cabs and other forms of transport and still have no estimation of when I will get my car back.

2019 Hyundai Tuscon experienced engine failure at 66k miles. This vehicle experienced the exact same issues of vehicles Hyundai previously recalled. It is equipped with knock sensor which was supposed to be a "fix" for the known engine issues. A sensor displaying on dash at the same time the engine starts loudly knocking does not make the vehicle safe. The engine still has the potential to fail and catch fire. Hyundai needs to fix all these engine issues. The Hyundai corporate consumer affairs office nor the dealership will return calls or emails about our vehicle.

Check engine light has come on twice AFTER the car was at dealers for the recall about the knock sensor. Dealer states the recall fix was implemented, however the light came on a day or two after the vehicle was in the shop. I believe they installed a new knock sensor but I’m not sure, check engine light was off when I picked it up. It’s been approximately 5 weeks since I’ve gotten it back and the check engine light came on again. Friend had a scanner tool and used it - code indicated it was the knock sensor again. Went to dealer and was told there was nothing they could do because the code was cleared. This is a huge safety issue as I drive CA freeways with cars doing 75 mph- it will run for a limited time but it won’t let you accelerate and will get you to the dealer but you must get it to dealer in a very short window- it’s an engine problem and could put me in extreme danger ⛔️

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
