Tucson 4-cyl

  • 56,000 miles
My 2006 Tucson has failed to start multiple times. It cranks, but doesn't start. Dealer has replaced the fuel pump 4 or 5 times, and it then works, but the pump keeps failing. Some times the pump lasted over a year, and other times the pump has failed within a couple of months.
