1.3 miles away from the dealership I purchased the 2019 Hyundai Tucson it started to smoke. 5 minutes later it was on fire!! it had less than 400 miles on it and I've yet to find out what exactly caused the fire. Hyundai or the dealership won't tell me. The fire came from the passenger side under the hood. The vehicle started smoking when I attempted to start it and caught on fire while off.

Sporadic hesitation when starting from a complete stop. This has happened to me about 15 times, usually when pulling out into traffic. The car has 4000 miles and has been in service about 6 months. The service manager.stated they have no other complaints but is probably due to the "smart" transmission adapting to different drivers. I understand that there was a recall for 41,000 2017 tuscons for the same issue.

I purchased new 2019 Hyundai tuscan ultimate this May. In the first week the service engine light lid up. I took it to dealer and 2 days later the vehicle was returned as fixed. Based on dealer's resolutions it was evap leak code and they just had to replace the cap. Week later the sign came back again and I dropped off vehicle for another 4 days, dealer stated it was same code again and it wont happen again. I took it back and two week later the light came back on again and disappeared after three day. The fourth time light came back again and I will be dropping off the vehicle again. The dealer is still unable to find the cause and unable to fix the issue. Based on the discussion with service manager, it is minor problem for them but the issue is keep coming back and I have to keep beinging the vehicle back to the dealer to fix it.

Vehicle was in motion on I20/459 entry ramp in birmingham, al. Vehicle stopped and cut off completely in the middle of the busy interstate. Acceleration slowed until vehicle died and all error lights appeared and flashed on dash with a "service now" alert. Placed the vehicle in park, and turned the switch twice before it would crank again. Upon starting- the same "service now" light appeared and car was able to drive. "service now" light vanished about 10 seconds after vehicle was driving again.
