NHTSA Complaint #11355243 — 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON

VEHICLE STALLED 2/21/2020 AT A STOP LIGHT AND LEFT ME STRANDED RESULTING IN A TOW TO THE DEALERSHIP. AFTER LENGTHY PROCESS WITH HYUNDAI CORP AND DEALERSHIP, I WAS FORCED TO PURCHASE NEW ENGINE SINCE THEY CLAIM MY INCIDENT DOES NOT FALL UNDER WARRANTY DUE TO "OUTSIDE INFLUENCES" SINCE HYUNDAI DID NOT WANT TO OWN UP TO A DESIGN FLAW THAT HAS NOW RESULTED IN A RECALL OF THOUSANDS OF VEHICLES. NEW ENGINE STILL STALLS WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE, BUT HAS NOT LEFT ME STRANDED YET. THIS WILL BE MY LAST HYUNDAI FROM SEVERAL INTERACTIONS REGARDING THIS INCIDENT. HYUNDAI NEEDS TO OWN UP TO THESE SAFETY ISSUES IN ALL THEIR ENGINES ACROSS ALL YEARS. THE 2016 AND 2017 TUSCON'S ARE EXPERIENCING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS AS THE 2014, 2015, 2018, AND 2016 MODELS.
