2022 HYUNDAI TUCSON Fuelpropulsion System Problems

engine light #2 GDI injector at 60,900 miles been repaired but not under warranty out at 60,000 miles

We brought our 2022 Hyundai Tucson into our local Hyundai dealership under warranty for Technical Service Bulletin MISFIRE DTC (P030X) – INTERNAL GDI INJECTOR LEAK REPAIR. We were surprised to learn the dealership did not have the parts in stock considering this is a widely known issue and we incurred significant expenses while waiting for the vehicle to be repaired. Expenses incurred: $211.47 for Enterprise car rental (2026 Hyundai Sonata) from 1/19/26 to 1/23/26 $140.00 to have the vehicle towed to the dealership since it could not be driven $18.14 for Uber to local rental car agency Total out-of-pocket expenses: $369.61 All documentation was presented to Hyundai corporate, but we have been waiting 3 weeks and the company has not reimbursed or provided any update. On a related note, to avoid the inconvenience of having to bring our vehicle in again for another known issue, we asked if the current...

I have had numerous issues with fuel Injectors failing. The first incident was about 30,000 miles. This was fixed by the manufacturer not even 10,000 miles later, I once again had to return the vehicle, to be inspected by the dealership. Instead of replacing all of the fuel injectors at the same time they chose to only replace one. As soon as my car went over the 80,000 mile warranty limit, my fuel injectors went out once more. My mechanic son, has also changed several as well. I had to tow it, 100 miles to the Hyundai dealership, as I live in a rural area. I was told by a young lady, at the dealership, that it was be covered under the engine warranty, which is 100,000 miles. They weren’t even able to look at the car for a week charged me $250 for a diagnosis… After a week 1/2...

When getting onto the highway on November 30, 2025, the engine on my 2022 Hyundai Tucson made an odd sound, acceleration was compromised and the check engine light came on. My husband was driving and he safely navigated us off the highway and back to our home via city streets. We were very concerned we were going to break down on the highway or city street during a cold time of year. The next day we had the vehicle towed to a local auto service center and they diagnosed the problem as a failed fuel injector. They stated this was a known issue by Hyundai. The auto service center ordered the fuel injector kit to make the repair, but they were only allowed to repair the failed fuel injector, not all of them. I'm concerned another fuel injector will fail. If Hyundai knows about the fuel injector issue why haven't...

The fuel door would not open, preventing me from refueling the vehicle. I had to purchase a new fuel door actuator and have the vehicle towed to a repair shop, which caused a significant inconvenience.

The fuell door will not open on the vehicle, and I am not able to put gas in the vehicle. Have taken it to a mechanic and he is unsure of what is going on. For a 2022 Vehicle this seems very odd.

The fuel injectors in the car keep misfiring causing the car to shake while driving, be loud and idle hard. In the past I have already replaced two different fuel injectors and now this is a third one that needs replaced.

While driving our 2022 Hyundai Tucson Limited with the 2.5L engine and about 39,000 miles, the check engine light suddenly came on. Right away the car started behaving strangely. The throttle response became jerky and uneven, and when idling the engine ran at a higher RPM than normal and sounded off. The vehicle also struggled to accelerate, which made it feel unsafe to drive. Thankfully this happened while we were not on the highway, but if it had occurred while merging or keeping up with traffic, it could have been dangerous. Even in city driving, the jerky response and slower acceleration created risk. What would normally be a safe turn across or into traffic could easily have turned into a slower, delayed turn and a potential accident. When we got home, I checked the code and it said it was a cylinder misfire on cylinder 3. The car had been...

Car started stalling and misfiring. When I took the vehicle for service they said it was a known issue and they were replacing all 4 fuel injectors. This was my wife’s car. About a year and a half ago the same thing happened to my 2022 Hyundai Tucson N-Line. I have googled around and found many many issues of the same thing happening on 2022 Tucsons.

I just bought this car back in february. It has 50k miles on it. Five minutes after starting it, and in the middle of a busy road, my accelerator suddenly stopped working, my car started shaking, and then it died. My dash lit up and it turns out, it was an issue with the factory fuel injectors.

Driving on Interstate 64 in southern Indiana approximately 70 mph in left lane when engine died without any warning signs. Was able to safely maneuver vehicle to shoulder without incident. Paid to have the vehicle towed 60 miles to Hyundai dealer. Dealer stated engine failure was due to injector issue known by Hyundai as a technical issue was released.

Fuel injectors failed after 4 years of having the car. This led to misfiring, shaking of car, and complete shut down of car within 10 seconds of starting the vehicle.

All four GDI injectors failed resulting in the car completely stopping on the highway.

Two separate times over the last year I’ve had a fuel injector go bad after using the auto start feature in semi colder temperatures. I’m not sure if the auto start has something to do with it but seems to be a cold weather issue.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Cylinder 4 fuel injector failed while driving 70 MPH down the highway. The dealer or manufacturer will have the faulty parts for inspection. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Loss of power and acceleration put me and others at risk; I could not go over 40 MPH on the highway, the car was lurching the entire time. Inattentive drivers being the main concern, with low speeds and driving/sitting still on the shoulder of the road. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes, the dealership I had it towed to confirmed the injector failed. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? The manufacturer is aware of the issue. There is a TSB issued that...

It’s been three years now and I had “Brake system failure” happened two times in 3 years. When traveling the brake system warning appears and while driving, and stopped at sign brake releases slightly and car would start to move unless I apply brakes firmly again. When slowing down at traffic lights holding the brake doesn’t bring car to complete stop. I had apply brake, slightly release and then apply again until car comes to full stop. I was told they need to replace IEB module and brake pedal module replacement. I checked in Reddit and other platforms where users had seen the issue multiple times on their vehicles. Also had an issue with Fuel system like replacement of Egr valve which seems to be common on multiple Vehicles.

Taken car to work, driving down highway check engine light come on with loss of power. Took to dealership reported cylinder number 3 fuel injector was stuck open. Replaced all 4 injectors. Found TSB for it

I went to fill up the gas and the gas cap door would not open. The gas station attendant tried to help with no luck. I drove to the dealer - the fuel release actuator had failed. Part was replaced under warranty. I am lucky I had enough gas to get to the dealer. Very scary when you can’t put gas in your car!

I have had 3 fuel injectors go out on my 2022 Hyundai Tucson. When this happened it was completely random and my car would stall and I would be stuck on the side of the road. I have had to miss work due to this happening. They told me that they are only able to replace the broken one each time instead of replace the all 4 while covered under warranty. They also told me that fuel injectors breaking is a common problem in 2022 and newer Tucson's as they are higher pressure systems than previous models. Im worried that this is going to keep happening and I'm going to keep breaking down due to fuel injectors breaking and end up stranded somewhere.

Stopped accelerating/disabled in the middle of interstate during rush hour traffic

Hyundai has a known issue with GDI fuel injectors. Car begins to shake and lose power and eventually will stall due to cylinder misfire caused by defective injectors.

Fuel injector failure. Car was losing power completely when pressing the gas pedal then would suddenly catch and go again. Then go very slowly with little power, almost got into an accident because of the loss of acceleration. They replaced the fuel injectors and it is now happening a second time with the check engine light coming on again. A RECALL NEEDS TO BE MADE! SEVERAL OF THE SAME COMPLAINTS ON HERE!!!!!!!

I am submitting this complaint due to repeated and dangerous fuel injector failures on my 2022 Hyundai Tucson. This is the third time this issue has occurred in less than three years of ownership. •First incident: My vehicle broke down on the side of the road while I was 10 hours away from home in Florida. This left me stranded and required towing and repairs. •Second incident: The fuel injectors failed again, though fortunately closer to my home. •Third and most recent incident: The same issue happened again, this time with my wife driving—a major safety concern. We purchased this vehicle specifically to avoid breakdowns like this and for the safety and reliability it was supposed to provide. This recurring failure is unacceptable for a newer vehicle and poses a significant safety risk to my family and other drivers. Fuel injector failure can lead to stalling in traffic or on...

My fuel injectors has been blown and Hyundai will not replace all 4 when one goes out. So I have to keep going back up to the dealership to get it fixed each time. They always blow on the highway. The first time I was doing some distance driving from Columbus, OH to Dayton, OH. Then the other time happened when I was on the highway during rush hour traffic. There were no other warnings before this happens. It just happens and the engine light comes on as the steering will begins to shakes like crazy.

I’ve already had my fuel injections changed about 20,000 miles again and my car is starting to stall again check engine light on again seems to be same issue now my car is no longer under warranty. I don’t seem this problem on the recall list but this is not a problem I want to have every 20,000 miles.

For the second time I was driving and all of a sudden lost power and couldn’t give it gas to go. I was almost hit from behind both times.

While merging onto [XXX] in Southington, CT, the vehicle would not accelerate past 25 MPH which is very dangerous for merging onto an interstate highway. Luckily, my wife was able to safely pull over onto the shoulder. We shut the vehicle off for a minute, restarted it, and have had no problems since. There were no warnings, and no check engine indicator was displayed. I'll contact the dealer this month at a regular maintenance visit.

My high pressure fuel injectors and spark plug had to be replaced at 72,000 miles. My check engine light came on and the car started vibrating and was not accelerating properly. I spoke to three Hyundai dealership service centers and each of them acknowledged that it was a known issue with 2022 Hyundai Tucsons.

FUEL INJECTORS FAILURE..... SECOND ONE IN A LITTLE OVER A YEAR. BROKE DOWN ON MAJOR HIGHWAY.. TOWED TO HUNDAI IN CAPE GIRARDAU AS IT IS UNDER POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT THIS IS NOT PART OF THE POWER TRAIN EVEN THOUGH IT IS IN THE ENGINE. KNOWN ISSUE,, LAST TIME THE MECHANIC TOLD US IT WAS PART OF POWER TRAIN. THERE HAVE BEEN SERVICE BULLETINS ON THIS ISSUE.

Fuel injectors. It is available for inspection. (Please!)This is the second failing of an engine, fuel or Powertrain issue. The car was in motion and suddenly just lost power. The first time it occurred about a month after purchased brand new in 2022, the car was coming from a stop light into the middle of an intersection. Driver was thankfully able to glide to side of road since it was early morning and had it towed to dealership. Second time it happened approximately 2 1/2 years later May 29, 2025, the car once again lost engine power at an intersection. Driver, again ,was in a fortunate position to glide off road from a right turn lane. If driver had been in left lanes going speed (55) this would not have ended as well. The car would not restart. Car was towed to dealership. The dealership confirmed that this was a...

Cylinder 2 misfires, engine code P0302. Yes, it is available. Engine loses power during acceleration. Yes, Hyundai of Anderson (South Carolina) No warning or symptoms. Driving great then the engine starting misfiring going down the interstate.

Without warning the car started misfiring while I was driving around town. It continued and became worse. I was in Wisconsin on vacation with the closest Hyundai dealer over an hour away. Mileage was 62416 and I had the tires replaced two weeks prior to leaving and while there I explained I would be driving from Virginia to Wisconsin and asked they let me know if the vehicle needed any service. I took it to a local shop to see if it was something easily repaired and was told it was probably a fuel injector and I should take it to the dealership as it may be under warranty. So I had to have it towed and rent a car. According to the dealership the warranty for the fuel injectors ended at 60000 miles.

My car stopped on the street without notice, check engine light came on and won’t moved, no power on acceleration. Was towed to dealership. Next two days, they told me that two fuel injectors were blocked/broke. I searched on internet and that has happened in many vehicles.

Component or System That Failed: After a routine oil change at Rick Case Hyundai of Roswell on Saturday, \[insert date], my 2022 Hyundai Tucson began shaking significantly. The dealership later informed me the issue was related to a **malfunction in the fuel injector system**. The vehicle is currently at the dealership and available for inspection upon request. How Safety Was Put at Risk: The shaking occurred immediately upon driving away from the dealership and worsened rapidly. I was concerned about losing control of the vehicle orengine stalling while driving, which could pose a danger to myself, passengers, and others on the road. I returned the vehicle immediately to avoid further risk. Reproduced or Confirmed by Dealer or Service Center: Yes, the problem was confirmed by the dealership (Rick Case Hyundai of Roswell). They diagnosed the issue as being related to fuel injector failure. I am waiting on a written report...

Engine started idling rough, loss of power. Trouble codes show misfiring in Cylinder 4, believed to be from faulty fuel injectors

On May 20, 2025, at approximately 76,100 miles, I attempted to open the fuel filler door on my 2022 Hyundai Tucson and found that it would not release. The car was unlocked and parked, but the fuel door remained stuck. I eventually managed to open it only after a frenzied random sequence of repeatedly pressing the lock and unlock buttons on the key fob while simultaneously pressing on the fuel door. The mechanism finally released after many attempts, but it was inconsistent and unreliable. A second incident occurred on May 26, 2025 at 76,460 miles when I needed to refuel. While I was not stranded, the experience was frustrating and concerning — especially since the vehicle does not appear to have any kind of manual emergency fuel door release. If this issue occurred while low on fuel or far from help, it could lead to a significant inconvenience or hazard....

While driving home on the freeway in stop-go traffic, the check engine light suddenly came on. At idle and low speed, the engine ran very rough with lots of vibration and acceleration became difficult. I got off the freeway as soon as possible to take surface streets as I felt unsafe continuing to drive on the freeway. The car continued to vibrate significantly. This happened very close to home and I was able to get home but slowly. When the car cooled down I checked the fluid levels - oil was fine and clear but coolant level was low despite a recent service where a coolant flush was performed and the coolant level was at the minimum level indicated by the reservoir. The dealer performed a test and the fuel injector unit for cylinder 3 failed. Apparently there is no observable coolant leak. The car is now awaiting repair under...

Fuel injector failure. Vehicle misfired at startup. When attempting to accelerate, vehicle was hesitating and couldn’t. Towed to dealer and they were able to recreate the issue and place code reader on vehicle to find injector problem. Dealer states that Hyundai is revamping all fuel injectors, not just replacing with current supply on faulty injectors. Car will be at dealer for unknown period of time due to nationwide parts supply shortage

In Dec. 2023 my car stopped dead in the middle of the road. After being towed to ABC Hyundai in las Vegas they had to replace a fuel injector and I was told it could occur again On [XXX] the car began sputtering and shaking. When I bought it in I was told it was the fuel injector. I was told that Hyundai no longer changes just the one injector as they did before but now Hyundai has a complete kit. There was none at the dealership so it was ordered on Sat May 17 and told it would be in on Tues May20 but now I'm told it's back ordered. They are supposed to give a loaner but non available. I cannot be without a car as I live alone and need a car. I called corporate customer service today May 22 but the won't get back to me...

At only 35k miles. Check engine display with heavy vibration due to misfire faulty fuel injectors. Repair took one month. Seems like Hyundai is not taking any action for this common safty issue.

Faulty injectors, engine was shaking, sluggish acceleration, possibly fuel mixed into the oil, check engine light on for cylinder misfires.

Fuel injectors fail at 26K miles

I purchased a 2022 Hyundai Tucson brand new, expecting it to be a reliable and safe vehicle for many years. Unfortunately, the fuel injectors failed and had to be replaced far too early in the car’s life. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The fuel injection system failed. The injectors had to be replaced, and the problem persists even after the repair. I believe the issue may still be present and can be made available for inspection if needed. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The vehicle continues to run poorly and unpredictably, which puts me and my family at risk—especially while driving at higher speeds or in heavy traffic. I’m concerned about stalling, power loss, or a potential engine fire due to leaking fuel. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer...

My 2022 Hyundai Tuscon is in the shop for a SECOND time due to a bad fuel injector. The first time was 4 months ago. My vehicle's check engine light went on and it went into "limp mode" on a major roadway. (I take all major highways to work.) A vehicle going into "limp mode" on a highway is super dangerous. My check engine light went on once again, and I brought it into the dealership service center. I left it there for 36 hours, only to learn that they did not have the parts on site to do the repairs. I have to bring it BACK for another 24-36 hours for the repair to be completed on a SECOND bad fuel injector. How Hyundai hasn't issued a recall for the fuel injectors yet is appalling.

In December 2024, the engine lost power while driving. We were able to pull over on a busy road, where we were blocking traffic on a curve. We had it towed to the dealership. There was no warning or light indicating any problem. Thankfully we were not on the freeway when this occurred. The Hyundai app said that all systems in the vehicle were normal. The fuel injector was replaced by Hyundai. Now, 4 months later, the check engine light came on. I took it to the dealership, and another fuel injector needed to be replaced. The service manager stated that he requested that all of the fuel injectors be replaced because this is a known issue, but Hyundai denied the request, so they only replaced one fuel injector. I am expecting this to happen again, and I am especially worried that the vehicle could lose power while driving on...

August 26, 2024, (and again on 4/10/2025...I will file that complaint separately) I experienced very rough engine performance and I could not throttle or go faster than 20 mph without the engine seriously rattling. In August under warranty a fuel injector was replaced, and now again in April 2025 the same problem again. Twice I was on a major highway but was luck to be able to get off so as not to cause an accident.

While driving in Dallas the engine seemed to have problems. We ended up pulling over and having the vehicle towed to a Hyundai dealer in Arlington TX where we live because we were concerned the vehicle was unsafe to drive and could stall out on a freeway. The dealer informed us they needed to replace the fuel injectors at a cost of approximately $1800. The vehicle has approx 60,000 miles and we also purchased an extended warranty. Apparently no warranties cover this issue according to the dealer. It seems Hyundai should take some responsibility for this defect which could be potentially dangerous when driving the vehicle with these known issues.

September 15, 2024 while driving with cruise control set at 65mpg, the 2022 Hyundai Tucson began shaking and experienced an abrupt loss of power. I released the cruise control, and the vehicle wouldn't accelerate over 45 mph without shaking severely. September 16, 2024 car was inspected by a dealership and determined it was the 4th cylinder fuel injector; mileage on the vehicle was 45,314. Repairs were made per a TSB P030X. January 27, 2025, while driving with cruise control at 60mph, the same thing happened again. Managed to get the car to another dealership, only to find out all 4 fuel injectors needed to be replaced; this time with a TSB 25-FL-001H kit; mileage was 50181. Approximately March 11, 2025 car started the same issue, only this time there was no abrupt shaking or loss of power, however very strong smell of fumes. I refused to park the car in...

Fuel injectors failed. It's been 3 weeks and it hasn't been fixed yet. It is still under warranty. But it's been 3 weeks.

The fuel injectors are bad. When the first fuel injector failed, the Hyundai mechanic stated that the remainder of fuel injectors would also fail but they could not proactively replace them. Two fuel injectors have failed in the matter of 6 months and it’s expected the last two will follow suit.
