2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON Visibilitywiper Problems

The regulators and motors for the automatic windows have failed. The windows do not remain in the closed position causing the window to slide open. The front passenger window motor failed first and the driver's window failed shortly after. Both regulators and motors were replaced by the dealer in April 2024. The back passenger side window failed in December 2024 and has not been replaced. If needed, the faulty mechanism could be provided for inspection. Failure of the closing mechanism for the windows means they can easily be opened from outside. A malicious person could break into the vehicle simply by sliding the window down. To my knowledge, no one has inspected the regulators or motors. Two other 2016 Hyundai Tucson owners I know have also had their window regulators and motors replaced. There was no warning to the automatic window failure.

Driver door power window control fails. Window won't go up or down while the window motor in the door can be heard operating. After the failure it is possible to manually pull the window glass up and down in it's track. The glass moves freely in it's track. The weight of the glass is sufficient to prevent the window from remaining closed, ie the glass drops down into the door if it is not held up. Window must be manually wedged or some how mechanically held in the closed position. This is an obvious theft concern if the vehicle cannot be locked. Problem identified; The power regulator drum is a plastic that deteriorates with time. The splines in the drum strip away and the power motor shaft spins freely in the drum, in both directions.

Window regulators failing on all windows. Drivers side is stuck open and will not close. All others are stuck closed and will not go down.

THERE IS A STRESS CRACK IN THE WINDSHIELD. WE NOTICED IT IN THE MONTH OF SEPTEMBER. THE WINDSHIELD HAS NOT BEEN REPLACED AND THE CRACK CAME OUT OF NO WHERE. IT IS COMPLETELY SMOOTH INSIDE AND OUT. THE WINDSHIELD REPLACEMENT COMPANIES I HAVE CALLED USUALLY SAY THIS IS DUE TO INCORRECT INSTALLATION OF A WINDSHIELD.

I WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65MPH EAST ON INTERSTATE 10 IN LOUISIANA AROUND MILE MARKER 257.3 WHEN THE HOOD LATCH FAILED AND MY HOOD FLEW UP, SMASHING MY WINDSHIELD AND COMPLETELY BLOCKING MY FIELD OF VIEW. THERE WERE NO CARS AROUND ME AS IT WAS 4:30 AM AND I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY PULL OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. IT APPEARS THAT BOTH THE PRIMARY AND SECONDARY HOOD LATCHES HAVE FAILED, CAUSING THE HOOD TO FLY OPEN.
