This happened last month as well. Drivers side rear door will not open while it is parked and on, it locks and unlocks but will not open from the inside or outside while it's unlocked. Last time it fixed after pulling on it approximately 25 times total. I have tried manually and automatically locking and unlocking and trying to open but nothing works. This time is is not working and becomes a safety hazard especially with children.

Both right side doors do not consistently open when first unlocked. This happens in a stationary position right after unlocking doors. Once open, they are fine until the car is locked again. They will not open from either exterior handle or interior handle. This happened a while ago, but recently tried to get it fixed and found out I am out of warranty coverage. When I looked up how to repair it, I was shocked by how widespread the issue is.

The left rear passenger door will not open from the inside nor from the outside which I feel causes a severe safety concern in the event of an emergency that requires immediate access to someone in the rear seat.

The rear passenger door could not be opened from the outside, even though the handle was not stuck. Springfield Hyundai in springfield, pa inspected and confirmed the problem, but did not fix because the vehicle was out of warranty. Another shop replaced the door lock actuator.

Rear driver side door actuator no longer works. Unable to open door at all. Car was parked.

- Norwich, VT, USA

Rear driver door stopped opening from inside and outside even though the handle moves freely and the locks are functioning (child safety is not engaged). A few months after that door stopped working the front passenger door outside handle fails to open 9 times out of 10 but locks still function. Everything else about the doors work fine and there has been no trauma to the vehicle.

The vehicle is less than 5 years old and I was told the steering column needs to be replaced. It clicks when ever the steering wheel is turned. I was told it is fine to drive it until I get it repaired but after reading what could happen that doesn't seem true. I have had the back passenger door latch replaced because it wouldn't open from the inside or outside. Now to open my from passenger door you have to pull the door handle 3 times to get it to open. My drivers side door won't open from the outside. And the drivers side window will go up and down when trying to put just up or down.

- Greer, SC, USA

My back passenger door won't open from the inside or the outside. You can hear the power lock working, but the door won't open. The problem started out gradually where the door wouldn't open unless you pulled the handle more than once and now it won't open at all. It's very dangerous for people in the back seat because they can't get out in an emergency through that door.

- Parker, CO, USA

The rear driver door is stuck closed no matter what I do. After looking online, it seems like multiple people are having the same issue with the door actuator going out. Now if people are in my back seat, people are stuck and have to go out the other door. My fear now is the other door will go out also and someone will be stuck in the back of my car.

- Lubbock, TX, USA

Rear passenger door is locked from the inside and out. This is a safety concern and needs to be recalled. All the locks on the door need to be upgraded and repaired not just replaced by the same faulty locks.

2016 Hyundai Tucson rear passenger door will not open from the inside or outside. This happened January 2021. I was waiting for the entire fire recall to come up with a fix so I could take it in at the same time. Now, the front driver door will not open from the outside, only the inside. Hyundai is saying it is out of warranty and I will need to pay for both. Quick research online shows me that there are hundreds of people also experiencing this problem. This should be evaluated as it is a safety issue if my car catches fire before there can be a fix for the recall and myself or my passengers are unable to get out of the car if it is on fire.

- Mission Viejo, CA, USA

After picking my grandson up from surgery on both legs went to get him out of the car and neither of the doors in the rear would open this is a problem with Hyundai that has not been addressed they should be a recall on this this is a dangerous situation specially in a place like Florida where we have bodies of water all over next to the roads in an emergencyyou will not be able to get out

The right rear door will not open from outside the vehicle when the vehicle is unlocked. It began as an intermittent problem but has now failed entirely.

- Southborough, MA, USA

Rear doors are stuck in closed position. The door locks operate, I can hear it click and I can see it move but the doors do not release. With two small children stuck in the rear of the car, this is a danger. Further research online indicates people have experienced this with all 4 doors, so we are driving in fear until we can get this fixed. This is dangerous.

- Springfield, VA, USA

The doors on this car keep failing to open. About 3 years ago I had to replace the locking mechanism on the driver front door. The door would not open from the outside. Then about 2 years ago I had to replace the door locking mechanism on the driver rear door. Now I need to replace the mechanism on the passenger rear door. This is a huge safety concern if we are unable to get out of the vehicle in case of an emergency.

- Palmerton, PA, USA

Left rear door will not open from inside or outside. Vehicle was parked in our garage. It will not open when Tucson is running or ignition is off. Right rear door has also had this problem periodically. There is no way to get out of backseat. I have gone to multiple websites and this is a recurring problem Tucson owners. I have even called the dealership and they said this is a common problem.

- Los Fresnos, TX, USA

The contact's mother owns a 2016 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while his mother was attempting to open the rear passenger door, it failed to open. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. A dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 40,000.

- Jackson, OH, USA

My doors have stopped opening from the inside or outside. The problem first started with my rear driver's side door (last year- has not opened since) and now has happened with the front passenger door (started last summer 2020). Child lock is not on, no obstruction, have tried locking and unlocking several times. The car is stationary, in park. At first if I use a little force and push the door it sometimes will let it open, but eventually this stops working and the door is totally sealed shut. From what I have seen this appears to be an issue for many Hyundai owners and there is no real fix. This is a safety issue- if there is an accident or my passengers need to get out of the vehicle quickly, they are quite literally trapped in the vehicle. I'm worried it's only a matter of time before this occurs with my driver door as well. This needs to be a safety recall and is absolutely not normal wear and tear.
