The contact owns a 2016 Hyundai Tucson. While attempting to drive, the contact depressed the accelerator pedal; however, the vehicle failed to accelerate. Suddenly, the vehicle accelerated at a rapid speed without warning. The vehicle was taken to faulkner Hyundai (2060 paxton St, harrisburg, pa 17111, (717) 238-7324) where it was diagnosed that an unknown system needed to be updated. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 34,000.

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"

Purchased January 2016 - limited AWD with factory installed tow hitch. Immediately noticed flickering interior lights and both head lights leaked, one side has been replaced. Later on developed hard start ups, shifting and acceleration issues. Along with intermitting front safety sensors and a glitching center console/back up camera. 7,500 miles in the ac stopped working from freezing over. Took to dealer while on vacation and discovered a melted fuse box cover and burnt tow hitch/ECU wires with an abundance of corrosion. Dealers could no confirm responsibility of the tow hitch harness, claimed it was not factory installed when it was factory installed and even on the original window sticker. We called Hyundai corporate everyday for over a week begging for help with no call backs. Roadside would not cover a tow to the selling dealer. Ended up driving ourselves an hour South to the dealer where it waits for a Hyundai engineer to fly in and look at it. There are recalls for this wiring harness in other models, the dealer wasn't even able to order a replacement part because it was discontinued. We were never notified of this and there are no recalls currently out for our car. We consider this a life threatening issue as the melting wires are a serious fire hazard along with the unreliable transmission and safety sensors.
