Consumer Description
I PURCHASED 2017 TUCSON BRAND NEW AT ROUGHLY 22K MY ENGINE SEIZED AND THE 3RD CONNECTING ROD FAILED. AFTER ENGINE REPLACEMENT I CONTINUED TO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH REAR DRIVER SIDE BRAKE LIGHT CONTINUOUSLY GOING OUT, BULB IS NOT OUT BUT WIRING SCORCHED AND BULB SOMEHOW CONTINUOUSLY BECOMES LOOSE. I HAVE REPLACED FRONT HEADLIGHTS REPEATEDLY WITH THE DRIVER FRONT SHATTERING IN HOUSING. I HAVE ALSO REPLACED CALIPERS AND HAVE GONE THROUGH 7 SETS OF ROTORS. AT ROUGHLY 60000 I NOTICED I WAS RUNNING OUT OF OIL IN BETWEEN EVERY 3000 MILE OIL CHANGE. CONTINUED TO BRING BACK TO DEALER FOR REPAIR S . I HAVE COMPLAINED MULTIPLE TIMES ABOUT HESITATION WHEN PULLING OUT FROM STOP AND ENGINE KNOCKING. MULTIPLE OIL PAN RESEAL GASKETS REPLACED FUEL PUMP REPLACED, OIL ALWAYS ALL OVER ENGINE. AT 110K MY ENGINE FAILED A SECOND TIME WITH HYUNDAI DENYING ALL CLAIMS. ORIGINALLY SAID THEY WOULD REIMBURSE ME FOR RENTAL BUT WHEN THEY EMAILED ME LETTER FOR 'GOODWILL ' REIMBURSEMENT IT WAS A RELEASE FROM LIABILITY WAIVER IF I TOOK THEIR 'GOODWILL ' . I HAVE INFORMED THEM OF ELECTRIC ISSUES AND HOW I FEEL UNSAFE WITH NEW RECALL AND FIRE POSSIBILITY AND THEY INFORMED ME AS LONG AS NO WARNING LIGHT IS ON IT SHOULD NOT BE AN ISSUE. I TRIED TO TRADE VEHICLE IN AND NO ONE WOULD TAKE MY TRADE, IT'S 3 YEARS OLD AND WORTH NOTHING. HYUNDAI RESPONSE WAS VEHICLES DON'T HOLD THEIR VALUE LIKE THEY USED TO. I AM DISGUSTED WITH THEIR DISMISSIVE CUSTOMER CARE, 2 ENGINES IN A VEHICLE 3 YEARS OLD AND THEY INSIST THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THEIR PRODUCT.
