Engine fail, no warning till it happened, her car just stopped at night in the middle of the road while she was driving, she then smelled something burning and got right out of the car and called a tow truck. The car was towed to a Hyundai dealership where we were later told it was an engine block, and the car was basically burning gas. Cars been in the shop since January because the engine had to be shipped in parts from overseas. When the new engine had finally arrived, they took the old engine out and saw that the Pistons headshot shrapnel through the starter and through this turbo part, which is also now on back order. I do not know if the vehicle has been inspected by the manufacturer, or the police. I feel very uneasy about the safety of this vehicle given everything that-??s happened and even though it-??s showing that it-??s not on the recall list from what I-??m reading and what I understand everything that-??s happened the vehicle should-??ve been recalled. With the new findings of the shrapnel shooting through the car knowing that that could-??ve been a catastrophic incident I could-??ve killed my daughter is very unsettling. The car was purchased just under five months before this happened.

The rear passenger door will not open making getting my child in and out of the car impossible unless she rides in the front passenger seat even though she-??s only 7.

My vehicle did not accelerate when I pressed the gas - also I am low on oil and I-??m not due for an oil change, meaning there is an oil consumption issue with the engine. Something is wrong with the engine/oil.

It's like the transmission has hesitation before it decides to go. I step on the gas and it doesn't go right away, it takes a couple seconds and then the rpms go up really high. There has been no accident but this has happened many times.

2022-1-09 Left the house to run errands and noticed the car seemed sluggish when I stepped on the gas to accelerate. I'd actually felt like this may have been happening for some time but it is a "Sport" and it always felt a little funky when you accelerrated. It was blistery cold so my initial thought was I left too quickly and the vehicle maybe needed time to warm up. It felt like the engine didn't either seem to be shifting to a higher gear, or getting enough power to accelerate which was very concerning as this happened as I pulled out onto a busier road, yet couldn't accelerate. I made it to my first stop but called my husband to express concern something seems off with the vehicle. I told him I would likely skip my errands and come home for him to take a look. After my stop, I started the Tucson up to head home - and now the check engine light came on (solid)! Apparently flashing check engine is more serious? I was able to make the drive home to unload groceries but the whole ride home I couldn't accelerate properly so it was a scary drive home, I drove slowly on backroads and used my flashers to get home safely. We immediately called the Hyundai dealer near us which closed. Called four times the next am as we needed whatever was going on fixed quickly. Once the vehicle was at the dealer, we learned it had complete transmission failure. Thankfully it appears this is under warranty. It is STILL at the dealer as it needed to get an inspector to come out to confirm it was transmission failure (which has now been confirmed 10 days later).

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION causing engine failures. Excessive engine oil consumption, will also shorten the service life of, oxygen sensors and catalytic converters, spark plugs and much more. ALL which I have had to replace since buying vehicle used in May 2021. This vehicle is not on the vehicle engine replacement recall campaign and I am not sure why. THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A MAJOR ENGINE MANUFACTURING PROBLEM. Hyundai should be responsible for manufacturing problems and they also should do what it takes to fix the problem. MY REQUEST: for Hyundai to reimburse me the money I have spent fixing, repairing and money spent on oil to operate this vehicle. AS all the information shows, this is a manufacturing issue with the engine and NO VEHICLE should consume/burn this much oil. It has been proven that EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION causes engine and parts failures. THERE are no leaks detected either by the dealership or repair shops. Frequently having an oil change doesn-??t change anything. I had an oil change (yes I have all receipts of repairs) less than a month ago and I have already had to put in 2 quarts of oil.

While driving, switched window buttons, driver side front and passenger front, windows will not return to closed position. Also rear windows will not operate as well. When window buttons pressed, clicks and whirring sound heard but windows do not go up. Also lights flash on on transmission gear lights, P, R, N, D. Automatic seat functions also do not work. Cannot adjust driver position to effective driver position. Have left multiple VM's with dealer with no response. CMA Hyundai, Colonial Heights VA.

I was driving park the car and it wouldn't turn back on. I open the door and the car turn back on. The radio everything reset. Now again couples of days later I was putting gas on the car went finish the car wouldn't start like if no electricity wiered. Everything again reset I am terrified that is a electrical problem. Is to danger. It should be a recalled for this. I think this problem that I am having with my Hyundai Tucson 2017 has electrical problem. And I ain't the only one.

- Rochester , NY, USA

The transmission consistently slips, or does not engage. It sputters, jerks, or simply does not go when the accelerator is depressed. One incident was so bad that when it finally engaged, it threw me back against my seat then sputtered and moved ahead slowly, all while merging into traffic. Very dangerous!

- Orangevale, CA, USA

my vehicle stalls on take off and I have been told it is a dual clutch issue and is not correctable. I find that very frustrating since they new this problem existed when I purchased the vehicle new and never told me of the problem. Sometimes when I take off or turn it stalls and that is dangerous. I have tried several time to resolve this issue with no luck. It still does it and it is not fixable. There is no excuse for that.

Subsequently following an engine replacement due to recall, there is now an electrical issue which has caused something to burn or possibly start fire as there is a burning smell from the hood and heat coming from under the hood into the car's cabin from the dashboard area and the drivers seat bottom is very hot. The heat increases rapidly inside the car from the engine, whenever it is on and running or on and idle. This is obvious how my life was at risk as every time i put the key in ignition, my life was at risk of fire or explosion or worse while driving. Car also sputters or stays idle when trying to quickly accelerate and this happens at random. The following list is more (minor) electrical malfunctions that have gradually become noticeable as I was using the vehicle: Cigarette light/phone charger power outlet does not stay connected and works sporadically; Dashboard alerts are random and inaccurate; Seems tires fall below normal psi daily and need to be filled with air more frequently tires were new before recall repairs. Oil changes more frequent also. Light bulbs burned out. Problems ongoing and i am unable to drive vehicle due to risk of death.

Was driving to work when I stopped at a light in traffic and my engine turned off. The battery and oil pressure light turned on. Started to see smoke under the hood and 5 minutes later the entire front end of the car was on fire.

This car was bought in 2019 from Car Max. Every few months, I get a check engine light and was part of a recall notice. I went to Hyndai Dealer CMA's Colonial Hyndai in Chester VA 23831 with the recall notice. They gave me a receipt that there are no issues on 17th May 22which was incorrect. My check engine light keeps coming on for an oil change and I had an emergency travelling from Viriginia to Atlanta and have to pull over to the closest repair shop where they indicated that recall issue was not resolved as the engine was consuming more oil faster resulting in the check engine light. I was surprised to hear that as the dealer indicated that there are no issues with regards to the recall. This was unacceptable from a dealer who was supposed to diagnose the problem and let the customer know that the engine problem still exists and you need to have engine oil changed every 2 months. If an engine recall indicates the engine requires a replacement they should have done an honest job and not fill the engine oil and let the customer know that there are no issues. I have all the documentation from the dealer that no issues were found but every day I drive, I am worried that car could stop anytime which is unnecessary stress owning this car. Any help in escalating this issue with the dealer or Hyundai in doing the right thing for their defective manufacturing will be appreciated.

Car has randomly and completely shut down while driving (electrical components flash on the interior) with no ability to accelerate on four different incidences on 05/18/22, 05/19/22, 05/27/22 and 06/17/22. Requested an appointment at my dealership to have the car inspected on 06/01/22 but was called 2.5 hours before the appointment on 06/18/22and informed that they could not inspect on the day I had selected. Without the ability to accelerate, had to coast to the side of the road to stop. To reset the vehicle, the vehicle has to be placed in park, shut off, and restarted. Three of these instances were in the city with very little room to pull over and one instance was on the highway at 65 mph and I had to navigate across two different lanes of traffic without the ability to accelerate. There have been no warning signs before the instances occurred.

Without warning, my car stalled and came to a stop while I was driving it. No warning lights had come on prior to the incident, but several came on after it stopped. I put the vehicle in park and attempted to restart it, and even though the start button lights indicated the the car was on, the engine would not start again. This is a safety issue because the car just stalled with no warning and I was not able to move it anywhere. If I had been on a highway or making a left turn, my children and I would have been seriously injured or killed. The car has been at the dealership since the incident, almost a week, and they have not yet looked at it or told me what is wrong with it. I have left 3 messages for the general manager and they have not responded.

Myself, like others I have seen report the issue. The door (for me driver side front) will not open from the outside latch after door is unlocked. Can only open door from inside latch.

My 2017 Hyundai Tucson refuses to accelerate after a complete stop at a traffic light, or just refuses to change gears after making a turn, or simply just lose power although on cruise control while drive on the freeway. I have reported the issue several times to Hyundai and the dealership, it seems that nothing can't be done and Hyundai is not taking my concerns seriously. I am not afraid to drive the car since I have a long commute to work, I escape several accidents before because the other drivers were cautious and kind enough when they notice that my car couldn't accelerate. Drivers have blown the horn at me on the highway because the car refuses to accelerate or change gear while I am driving. I can press the gas pedal all the way down, still nothing. When I press the gas pedal down, the engine start shaking and making a weird noise while the car still not accelerating or changing gears. I also notice that I am burning more fuel than expected, and I always get below the average for typical MPG. I personally consider this car is unsafe to drive, and I am strongly thinking about trade it in.

Due to a faulty alarm and anti-theft system, my car was broken into and stolen. This has been an ongoing epidemic and Hyundai has done nothing to acknowledge and fix the situation. Even though the car is equiped with an alarm system, it only works for specific areas of the car, and rear windows can be broken and pried open without activating the alarm. The ignition can then be ripped out and driven without the key.

There was a recall for a malfunction in my engine that could potentially cause the vehicle to catch on fire. The signs associated were knocking in the engine, failure to accelerate, check engine light was on, and the oil light would come on when making turns. I made these observations before a recall was issued, and tried to have vehicle repaired from Priority Hyundai in Chesapeake, VA. They had my vehicle for 6 days and failed to diagnose my vehicle. Less than a month later, my daughter and I were almost hit on the interstate due to the car failing to accelerate. Took my vehicle to Hall Hyundai in Newport News, VA. They performed the recall items, and the car ran better, but I could still hear the knocking. February 7, 2022, my daughter and I were stranded because the car was not accelerating again. Pulled over to an Advanced Auto Parts store and the technician said there was a problem with the gaskets, but said he wouldn't drive it. Had my car taken back to Hall Hyundai and was told there wasn't any oil on the dipstick, but they had changed the oil a month before. Had an engine combustion cleaning done. Picked my vehicle up the next day and before I got home, the check engine light was back on, and the engine knocking. I no longer drive my car because my daughter is scared in it, and I have lost confidence that we aren't going to end up on the side of the road somewhere. The engine jumps as if the car is going to either take off or shut down completely. Asked the representative at Hall if I should bring the car back, but never received a response. The car and it has less than 100K miles on it. I've done the required maintenance. I like Hyundai cars, but will most likely switch brands because I can't get any help to repair a vehicle I've had for less than two years. I've paid rental car/maintenance fees that equal at least 8 car payments. The recall said repair or replace, and at this point, I feel a replacement is necessary.
