2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON Engine Problems

Engine is burning oil causing the catalytic converter to clog and fail. Hyundai dealership told me after I had the car towed to them for repair on 12/30/2025 that the catalytic converter had already been replaced before in March 2024. I had purchased the car from another dealership March 2025 and the catalytic converter replacement was not on the car fax. I was also I formed by the Hyandai dealership that my car has an extended warranty of 10 year/150,000 miles on the engine due to the known oil consumption issue. My car has 131,000 miles. I was told Hyandai will make it very difficult for engine replacement since I’m a second owner. There needs to be a recall immediately.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, an abnormal pop sound could be heard coming from the engine. The oil warning light was illuminated. The contact was about to merge to the side of the road when the contact noticed a glow on the underside of the vehicle. The contact then pulled into a parking lot, smoke was emitting from under the hood, and entered the vehicle through the A/C vents, and noticed the flames under the hood. The contact stated that the heater was turned on, and the contact immediately turned off the heater. The contact opened the hood and used a fire extinguisher to extinguish the flames. The fire department was called to check the vehicle to make sure the fire was extinguished. The fire department used a thermo reader to make sure that there was no more risk of a fire. The vehicle was towed to the residence. The contact towed the vehicle to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the engine had failed. The contact was informed that the vehicle had an open recall pending: NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V727000 (ENGINE). The dealer informed the contact that since the recall was not performed, the engine had failed. The contact stated that he was the second owner and that the vehicle was purchased in 2022. The contact was unaware of the recall at the time of purchase. The dealer refused to complete the recall repairs. The vehicle was not repaired. Most recently, the contact was informed that the connecting rod failed and punctured the bottom end of the engine. The vehicle remained at the dealer unrepaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and denied the recall repairs. The failure mileage was approximately 107,000.

Mileage: 107,000

severe oil consumption. the vehicle eats the oil at an alarming rate. having to fill the oil tank very often and the engine light has been on. it is affecting acceleration at 30mph where the engine warning light will flash. It also completely dies while driving. very unsafe and needs to be resolved.

I purchased a CPO 2017 Hyundai Tucson in June'22 and brought it in for engine stuttering, the car stalling in intersections and was told they couldn't duplicate the problem. I emailed and brought the car in again and still noting was rectified. I've made the oil changes, changed spark plugs, flushed the engine in July and got new oil and everything looked at and in October the engine seized while my husband was driving to work: no oil lights on no engine lights on. Neither Hyundai or the extended warranty will help. My VIN didn't come up in a recall but there's too many problems with other 2017 I would hope they'd look again and help their customers.

I’m submitting this complaint to report what appears to be a serious safety-related engine issue in my 2017 Hyundai Tucson Sport 2WD with the 1.6L DI Turbo engine [T-GDI GAMMA]. I’m aware of NHTSA Recall 21V-727, which covers 2017 Hyundai Tucson models with the 2.0L engine for premature engine bearing wear. The symptoms covered by that recall are nearly identical to the symptoms my vehicle is now showing. My VIN shows no open recalls or service campaigns on Hyundai’s website, but the problems I’m experiencing match those found in many other consumer reports for this same year, make, and model. My vehicle has only 80,000 miles and has had regular maintenance. Examples include loud knocking from the engine that rises and falls with RPM, and metal shavings in the oil. One complaint that reflects the same pattern can be found in NHTSA ID 11680114, which describes engine knocking and metal debris with no warning lights or alerts. My vehicle has also shown no warning indicators. These issues pose a safety risk because they can lead to sudden engine failure while driving. Based on the volume of similar complaints and the overlap with the existing recall, I’m concerned that the defect may affect more than the engines currently covered under 21V-727. I’m requesting that NHTSA review this matter and determine whether Hyundai should extend or expand the recall to include vehicles equipped with the 2017 Hyundai Tucson Sport 2WD 1.6L DI Turbo DOHC 4cyl. Please investigate this issue and hold Hyundai accountable if these defects extend beyond the vehicles already listed.

The 2017 Hyundai Tucson I owned had the engine FAIL (internal bearing failure) rendering the car basically worthless. Hyundai has multiple recalls on this type of engine. My car had 120,000 miles when the engine failed. Hyundai REFUSED to offer ANY assistance on this, fully knowing that these engines have had thousands of problems in Australia and the US. This is a problem they KNOW exist and they are doing nothing!!!! They need to admit the problems and help consumers when this happens instead of trying to WEASEL out of any responsibility. Thanks.

I am writing regarding a serious incident involving negligent automotive service performed by Jiffy Lube Store #687. On October 24, 2025, I took my 2017 Hyundai Tucson to this location for a standard oil change. I trusted that the service would be completed properly and safely. However, on November 21, my vehicle’s oil lamp unexpectedly illuminated. Concerned, I returned to Jiffy Lube on November 22, where employees informed me that they had “sealed the small leak and topped [my] oil,” adding that I was entitled to two top-offs between oil changes and “should be good for two weeks.” Tragically, the very next day, November 23, the oil lamp flashed again. My vehicle then shut off while I was driving, with my children in the back seat. This was a frightening and dangerous situation for all of us. I am now left confused, stressed, and unsure of the full extent of the damage.

- Kept regular 5K-6K oil changes since 2022 when I purchased the vehicle -Took the vehicle to a Hyundai dealership, multiple times, to ask about the engine stalling at a stop or slow turn, and/or jerking. -July '25 new oil change and flushed engine -October'25- no engine or oil lights. Engine seized and needs to be replaced. - VIN didn't populate recall but the symptoms are the same

Component/system: Engine / powertrain – excessive engine oil consumption. The original engine is still in the vehicle and is available for inspection upon request. On 11/7/2025 my dealer (Ourisman Hyundai in [XXX] ) added 2 quarts of oil at 90,999 miles after the dipstick showed a very low level. After that visit, we drove approximately 713 miles (mostly highway, including a college visit trip), and the oil level again dropped close to the same low point on the dipstick. On 11/22/2025 at 2:10 PM, with mileage at 91,815, the dipstick again showed a significantly low oil level. I am concerned that this abnormal oil consumption could lead to sudden engine failure or loss of power while driving at highway speeds, putting my family and others on the road at risk. This vehicle is used regularly for my daughter’s college visits and everyday transportation. The dealer has acknowledged the concern, previously performed a combustion chamber cleaning on 8/11/2025 (Invoice #XXX), and has submitted a request to Hyundai for assistance. However, a formal oil consumption test or official diagnosis has NOT yet been completed, so the exact cause is UNKNOWN. The vehicle has been inspected by the dealer, and Hyundai Motor America has opened a case, but there has been no final decision or repair yet. There have been no warning lamps or messages on the dashboard; the only symptom has been repeated, excessive oil loss between visits, verified by multiple dipstick and odometer photos. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Sensors something to do with the motor and not sure where the other sensors is related to could be the motor as well. The safety was not good due to it shut off in the middle of traffic and making wraddling noise. I took the vehicle to the dealership where purchase from. They have done nothing besides fixed one thing that I know of supposed to been the surpension. But the other problems was not fixed No it has not been inspected by anyone The warning lamp come on and just blinking none stop

My 2017 Hyundai Tucson is experiencing severe oil consumption, which appears to be related to a known manufacturing defect affecting Hyundai engines from this period. My vehicle is burning through oil rapidly between normal oil change intervals, and it has begun showing signs of low oil levels despite no external leaks. This creates a serious safety concern because the engine can fail without warning. The dealership has acknowledged that excessive oil consumption is a known issue for this engine but refuses to provide assistance because I do not have “enough oil change documentation” over the years. However, this issue is not caused by lack of maintenance — it is a widespread internal defect that Hyundai has issued multiple technical service bulletins for. My car has been maintained, and oil changes were performed at regular intervals, even if I do not have complete paperwork. The rapid oil burning is ongoing and dangerous. I am concerned about the engine seizing, stalling, or failing while driving, which could lead to a crash. This is a safety hazard that should be investigated and included with other Hyundai engine cases. Requested Action: I am asking NHTSA to investigate this oil consumption defect affecting the 2017 Hyundai Tucson and require Hyundai to provide a remedy, including repair or engine replacement, regardless of perfect maintenance documentation, since this problem stems from a manufacturing flaw.

vehicle is burning through oil.

I know there is a re-call for my vehicles engine and year with model. I am having serious issues with my vehicle related to the recalls for the same year and model. I feel unsafe driving my vehicle and now I do not know what to do.

I recently purchased vehicle and when checking recalls from my local Hyundai dealership I was advised that there was two previous attempts to have engine replaced due to knocking and it was denied this recalls is the 209 I escalated to Hyundai corporate and after taking to a Hyundai dealership and paying for a diagnostic test they advised car doesn't have oil pressure and the oil pump needed replaced and Hyundai corporate denied repairs saying this didn't pertain to recall 209 because my engine is a 1.6 liter and it was ok only to the 2.0 engines, I would like to report this and ask for help please.

Oil consumption problem caused vehicle to go into Limp Mode on freeway. Manufacturer states 1qt loss every 1000 miles is acceptable.

Hyundai issued a major recall in 2025 for models like the Sonata, Tucson, and Santa Fe due to faulty piston rings and ECM settings that caused oil to burn rapidly. consume oil excessively due to defective piston rings, engine control module (ECM) issues, or poor engine design. These problems cause oil to burn inside the engine rather than leak externally. it needs to be recalled or replaced this is a saftey issue for me and my family it is using excessive oil and there are no visible leaks please fix it this !

Burning oil. More than a quart every couple hundred miles sometimes much more than that. Very bad burning oil smell coming from engine into the inside of my car. I feel sick everytime I drive from breathing in fumes. Need oil consumption test asap

1- I purchased a 2017 Hyundai from CarMax in Edison, NJ 2- Within one month the car broke down, choking and not being able to go highway speeds 3- Brought it to Goodyear, (CarMax’s repair provider for their warranty). They replaced the ignition coils, engine modules-coils, performed a GDI/PFI 2-step fuel system cleaning, (known as Top Engine Cleaning. They replaced the spark plugs and the engine air and cabin filters. The engine was clogged with carbon deposits. 4- 7 Months later the same thing happened and the same work was done by Pep Boys. 5- Two to three weeks later it happened again. The work was guaranteed so they “fixed” it again. They also said the engine was low by 2 1/2 quarts and there was a problem with that engine, I should check with Hyundai. 6- I was told by Hyundai’s corporate office to go to one of their dealerships and get an Oil Consumption Test, which consist of an oil change and then have it tested after 1,000 miles. I will get 2 - 4 test before a determination is made. 7- The car failed the first test, having consumed 2 1/2 quarts of oil within a 1,000 miles. 8- I was told I had to get a Top Engine Cleaning, (the 3rd one within 13 months), before I can continue the test. 9- I get the engine cleaned for, $1,434.11 then resumed testing. 10- The car failed again and I was told by Corporate that they are dropping my claim because the car has too many miles and is too old! From the very beginning they knew the year of the car and the mileage. I am being defrauded and I’m now stuck with paying a $485.90 car note along with a $269 a month insurance bill for a car that was no good from the very beginning! Please,I need your help to hold Hyundai responsible for their promise to give me a new engine after following the steps they required of me, and/or holding CarMax responsible for selling me a car with an engine that is no good. This has cost me thousands of dollars on top of what I’m paying for the car!

My 2017 Hyundai Tucson has completely broken down will not go into reverse had a diagnostics at Hyundai. I thought it was going to be covered because of the class action suit. My car apparently was not in the recall or the suit. I don’t understand I have the identical problem of the dual clutch transmission issue. I’ve tried to get Hyundai to do good-faith repair they refused. I’ve contacted Carmax where I purchased the vehicle. They had the car when the lawsuit was finalized I didn’t know anything about the lawsuit or the problem with the vehicle. I’ve had the car for five years it’s at 85,000 miles. I don’t know what to do.

Excessive oil consumption leading to catastrophic engine failure

I've taken the vehicle to several mechanics for engine-idling when turning, going up-hill. I've purchased new plugs, lines, engine cleaners, no-one can figure it out. The oil now has engine shavings even though the oil was recently changed. The car broke down today

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle failed to respond while stopped at a red light. A dealer was contacted. The vehicle was taken to the dealer to be diagnosed; however, the diagnostic result was unknown. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 95,000.

Mileage: 95,000

The auto has 112,000 miles and is using oil excessively. A quart with every gas fill up.

Engine burning oil. Had 2 oil consumption tests and failed both. Had engine combustion chamber cleaned and still burning oil. Hyundai denied new engine

excessive OIL CONSUMPTION no leaks its buring oil

Had an oil change on September 29th. The mechanic brought to my attention metal shavings in the oil and advised that I should get rid of the car because it won’t last much longer. It drove fine for a day until the next afternoon I was driving on the highway with my children and the engine started knocking loudly. The car stopped accelerating past 45 mph. I was close to my house fortunately but barely made it as it sounded like the engine would blow. It is now sitting in my driveway still knocking when I start it and don’t feel safe driving it anywhere. There were 0 warning lights. I was not aware of the engine issues these cars had until I did some research and looks like it’s very common. Seeing some people had luck getting replacement engines in the past and many others not. This needs to be addressed and Hyundai needs to be held responsible for the awful oil consumption issue resulting in failing engines. We should not have to provide proof of maintenance when clearly this is an issue regardless.

NHTSA Complaint – 2017 Hyundai Tucson Oil Consumption, Engine Defect, and Branded Title I am filing this complaint regarding my 2017 Hyundai Tucson, which suffers from abnormal oil consumption and engine problems. In addition, Hyundai Motor Company internally “branded” the title without disclosure, which voided my eligibility for warranty coverage. These issues create both serious safety risks and consumer protection concerns. 1.Oil Consumption and Engine Issues •This Tucson has had oil consumption problems since the first owner, which I only discovered a year after purchasing the vehicle. •The vehicle burns oil excessively between service intervals, often requiring top-offs after just a few hundred miles. •Critically, the low oil pressure warning light provides no early warning. It only activates once oil levels are already dangerously low, leaving no safe margin to protect the engine. •On multiple occasions, I was unaware the engine oil had dropped to unsafe levels until the vehicle was already at risk of engine damage. •The engine makes knocking/tapping noises, hesitates under acceleration, and has rough idling when oil levels drop — all signs of internal engine damage that could lead to sudden failure while driving. 2.Hyundai’s Branded Title Practice •Roughly one year after purchasing from CarMax, I learned that Hyundai had internally branded the title in their own system due to oil consumption reported by the first owner. •This branding was never disclosed to me or to CarMax, and the official state-issued title and Carfax report both showed “clean.” •Hyundai uses this internal branding to void the extended engine warranty that should have applied to my vehicle. •Despite repeated requests, Hyundai has refused to provide documentation of when or why this branding occurred. 3.Warranty and Safety Concerns •Hyundai has issued Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) and extended warranties for engine failures caused by piston rings and bearings

Excessive oil consumption

My 2017 Hyundai Tucson has been chonking out and having acceleration problems. I thought it was because of AC running. When I took it in for inspection my mechanic stated it was misfiring. I am meticulous about routine maintenance (I.e. tire rotation and/or replacement, oil change, inspection, etc), as well as whatever if any repairs are needed. I immediately reached out to my local Hyundai dealer but they never responded. It should be corrected by Hyundai and a recall issued. After researching the issue I see I’m not the only one with a problem. The 1.6 L engine should have been recalled because apparently the same turbo engine in the GDI model was. I have all my maintenance records to support my claim. Come Hyundai!!! I thought you stood behind your vehicles?????

My engine has been burning oil. The engine light has been on for just over the past year because an O2 sensor in the catalytic converter needs replacing, however, this is unrelated to the issue. The oil light started flickering earlier this year (approx 8 months ago) but would never stay on. I called my mechanic and they recommended I check the oil. Sure enough it needed oil. Since then I have had to continuously add oil in between oil changes, however, the oil light rarely comes on or flickers to indicate this need, I just need to check. The engine has been making a ticking sound and that gets louder or worse I have noticed as the engine burns the oil. I have read up on other 2017 Hyundai Tucsons having the same engine failures and that some are covered under recall but mine does not seem to be. My mechanic has informed me that the engine needs to be rebuilt in order to fix the problem. I am worried about the car dying on me or causing an accident because of the failing engine. Yes, this problem has been confirmed by my mechanic.

Every time I get the oil changed I have to add 2-5 quarts of oil in between changes. I had the catalytic converter replaced 3 years ago and now I have to do it again. I’ve had nothing but issues with this car and oil consumption. I shouldn’t need another catalytic converter again after only a few years. I’m doing my 3rd oil consumption test right now.

Excessive oil consumption, Full synthetic Oil last less than 2000 miles. Transmission takes some time to respond when start driving from a stop. Car shake a bit.

Electric,

Excessive oil consumption! Keep being told that they cannot find an issue

While driving to work on I-26 in the far left lane at approximately 55 mph, my vehicle suddenly and completely shut off without warning. The engine power was lost instantly, forcing the car to come to an abrupt stop in live interstate traffic. I had no prior indication of a problem—no warning lights, no messages, no abnormal performance. It took three attempts to restart the vehicle. When it finally restarted, the engine made a loud knocking noise, and the car could only move at a dangerously slow crawl. I had to cross multiple lanes of high-speed traffic to reach the right shoulder, nearly causing several accidents in the process. Other drivers had to brake hard and swerve to avoid colliding with me. This situation could have easily resulted in a multi-vehicle crash, severe injury, or death. After pulling over and shutting the vehicle off, I checked the oil dipstick and found it completely dry. The engine had failed with no warning whatsoever. The vehicle was later inspected at an independent service center and I was told the engine must be replaced, and that the vehicle is not safe to drive. I am now left without reliable transportation due to this sudden failure. This incident represents an extreme safety hazard. Losing all engine power in the far left lane of an interstate at highway speeds placed my life, and the lives of countless other motorists, in immediate danger. The outcome could easily have been catastrophic. To reiterate: the engine failed without any warning or indication, creating a life-threatening emergency situation. This is a critical safety defect that requires urgent investigation.

I am the original owner of my 2017 Hyundai Tucson. I am a [XXX] retired teacher. I became aware that my 2017 Hyundai Tucson was consuming oil in August 2024. I took my Tucson to Buerkle Hyundai, where it was purchased, and they set my vehicle up for oil consumption testing. Every 1,000-1,100 miles my car's oil level needed to be checked by an authorized Hyundai dealership. This required time and planning. I began working with Luther Hyundai in Burnsville, MN for testing as they are close to my house and requested to take over when I brought my vehicle in for the first check. This engine issue is covered by my 10 year/100,000 mile warranty. My vehicle's oil level was checked as required for the testing. Hyundai considers a vehicle burning 1 quart of oil or less per 1,000 miles to be acceptable. My vehicle consistently consumed oil and when checked May 9, 2025, in 817 miles my car had consumed 1.5 quarts of oil. My vehicle had 88,689 miles on it. My car met the requirements for a new engine, which I'd been told was the warranty repair. Luther Hyundai, Burnsville, MN submitted the repair request. Next I was told I'd have to provide oil change invoices. I brought in oil change invoices for the past four years. Then I was told I'd need to provide invoices dating back to the purchase of the car, 8 years of maintenance records. That seemed extreme but I provided those. Somehow Hyundai Warranty Division is stating my vehicle maintenance is negligent despite having my oil change records that proved otherwise. They have denied warranty repair. Luther Hyundai's service manager wrote emails stating that my vehicle had been well taken care of and serviced. Hyundai Warranty division refused the repair again. When I asked for a written statement of reasoning I was told they could not send one. My vehicle is not safe to drive. I cannot understand how Hyundai can deny a valid warranty claim. I need my Tucson repaired and the warranty honored. I'm unable to upload all files. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFOR

Loud knocking in the engine that increases or decreases with the rpm. Metal shavings found in the oil. Appears to be same issues described as active recall for 2017 Tucson’s, but no recall for this vin. No alerts were or have been triggered within the car. This has not been brought to a dealership out of fear of seizing the engine.

My car has been consuming large amounts of oil and as a result has had two catalytic converters replaced. Twice now we have been disabled on the highway due to aggressively poor engine performance.

This unresolved issue has created serious safety risks. On two separate occasions, my vehicle lost power while crossing the Leo Frigo Bridge in Green Bay—an extremely dangerous scenario for both my family and other drivers. Most recently, within just ~40 miles of picking up the vehicle from service, the issue recurred. The service department reported finding oil on the ignition coils—symptoms consistent with known and documented warranty concerns such as: Valve cover gasket leaks Spark plug tube seal failure High-pressure fuel pump gasket leaks The vehicle has been brought multiple times to a certified Hyundai dealership for recurring problems including power loss, poor engine performance, and excessive oil consumption. Despite these repeated service visits, the underlying issue has not been properly addressed. I have now been informed that I am responsible for diagnostic charges—even though the vehicle is covered under the TXXM Engine Warranty Extension / Powertrain Limited Warranty due to known oil consumption-related defects.

In April of 2023 while driving I heard a pop noise and my engine started smoking. A connecting rod had broke in half and went through my oil tank. My 2017 Hyundai Tucson had only 54k miles. I was denied warranty and my vehicle was branded maintenance neglect due to lack of proof of oil change but when I sent the dealership I purchased my vehicle from the all my oil change receipts in August 2023 I was still denied and my car is still branded today without explanation.

The turbocharger on my 2017 Hyundai Tucson 1.6T has failed three times within one year. Most recently, the dealership diagnosed the turbo’s wastegate actuator as being completely open, resulting in severe power loss and unsafe driving conditions. The replacement turbo from an authorized parts supplier is still under a 5-year warranty, and the dealership confirmed there were no oil feed or installation issues contributing to this repeated failure. Component/System Failed: Turbocharger (wastegate actuator stuck fully open). The failed turbocharger is available for inspection upon request. Safety Risk: The vehicle experienced severe loss of power while and also the dealer made me aware there is a valve stuck in the turbo itself and if i drive it it could blow the motor up, which made merging and accelerating unsafe and could have resulted in a collision. The lack of engine power when entering traffic or climbing steep grades put both myself and other drivers at risk. Dealer Confirmation: The issue has been confirmed and documented by a Hyundai dealership service center. This is the third turbocharger replacement within one year for the same vehicle, indicating a potential defect or underlying issue. Warning Lamps/Symptoms: The check engine light illuminated (P0299 – Underboost) prior to the failure. I also experienced significant loss of acceleration and increased fuel consumption. These symptoms began days before the dealership confirmed the wastegate actuator failure. Resolution Sought: I am requesting Hyundai Consumer Affairs review this case due to repeated turbo failures, potential underlying defects, and financial burden. I would like to know what Hyundai can do to address the repeated turbocharger failures and associated labor costs.

I own a 2017 Hyundai Tucson with the 1.6L turbocharged engine. My vehicle is experiencing serious and potentially dangerous engine issues, including knocking, loss of power while driving, sudden engine stalling, and low oil pressure. These problems have worsened over time and now occur regularly during normal operation. The vehicle has stalled in traffic on multiple occasions, creating a significant safety hazard for myself and other drivers. I am aware of an existing recall (21V-727) for 2017 Hyundai Tucson models with the 2.0L engine related to premature engine bearing wear, and the symptoms I’m experiencing appear to be identical — yet my 1.6L turbo model is not included. I strongly believe this issue may also affect the 1.6T engine variant and poses a serious safety risk. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate whether the 1.6L turbocharged engine used in this model year should also be subject to recall due to the same type of internal engine failure. I am currently pursuing diagnostics and have contacted Hyundai to request assistance, but the cost of repair and potential danger while driving remain urgent concerns. Please take this report into account as part of your investigation.

Without any warning, the engine stalled out going through an intersection.

The vehicle suffered extreme oil consumption while under the 'famed' 100k mile warranty. Tests were performed at the dealership confirming excessive oil consumption. Hyundai USA refused to service the issue claiming my personal service records did not meet their standards of responsible maintenance. At 108k miles the engine failed while on the interstate in CO. Cylinder 2 had blown and the dealership noted the towed vehicle was low in oil. The engine failure is a direct result of excessive oil consumption, something that hyundai has been aware of and has chosen to fight against owners damaged vehicles, rather than remedy the issue. Hyundai has faced class action suits and settled on these, yet still has not admitted fault. This issue poses a safety hazard for owners who may suffer catastrophic engine failure while driving.

The engine blew. It had to be replaced at my costs because hyduadai does not warrant when a car changes hands. It has 81250 in miles. This is happening to lots of people. It’s a 1.6 L engine. The 2.0 has a recall. But the 1.6 needs to be recalled also. Something needs to be done.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended. The contact became aware of an abnormal knocking sound. No warning lights were illuminated. The contact stated while driving uphill, the vehicle stalled and lost motive power. The vehicle was taken to the dealer; however, the failure was not duplicated. The dealer requested an oil consumption test. The oil consumption test was performed and indicated that the engine was consuming an excessive amount of engine oil. The contact stated there was no warning light to indicate that the oil pressure was low. The contact stated that the oil was six quarts low. The failure was persistent. The contact stated that there were several failures reported to the dealer. The contact stated that while driving uphill, the vehicle stalled and lost motive power. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic. In addition, the contact stated that the abnormal knocking and ticking sound was persistent. In addition, the contact stated that the engine was six quarts of engine oil low every two weeks. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer. The contact was informed that the cause of the failure was not identified. In addition, the dealer requested an engine replacement due to the persistent failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact stated that due to the persistent failure, the vehicle had been taken to the dealer several times. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was filed. The failure mileage was approximately 86,790.

Mileage: 86,790

The engine in my 2017 Hyundai Tucson Limited failed at approximately 111,000 miles. The vehicle began to run roughly, misfiring and losing power with no warning lights or prior indication of an issue. Within days, the vehicle became undriveable and had to be towed to a dealership. The dealership diagnosed the issue as a cylinder misfire due to internal engine damage caused by excessive oil consumption. They confirmed the only solution was a full engine replacement. I was told this issue is not currently covered by recall, despite its similarity to known engine defects Hyundai has recalled in other vehicles. This failure posed a serious safety risk. The vehicle stalled and lost power while driving, making it dangerous to accelerate or keep pace with traffic. Fortunately, the failure did not cause an accident in my case, but it easily could have in different circumstances. There were no dashboard warning lights, oil pressure warnings, or check engine indicators before the symptoms began. The oil level had not been excessively low, and the car had been well maintained. I have opened a case with the manufacturer, but assistance was denied due to mileage and ownership history. This appears to be part of a broader pattern of engine failure in similar Hyundai models. I am reporting this in hopes it contributes to further investigation and potential recall expansion.

We purchased this car brand new in 2017 for my late mother.... It had 12000 Miles on it and started shaking intensely last year. We took it into Tuttle click Hyundai multiple times and they said it was fine.... Charged us several thousand and it continued to shake so we took it back multiple times. They have taken tons of our money and the car shakes as it drives.... Yesterday we found out that there was a major recall on this engine and we were never notified.

My engine was recalled and they inspected it and said it was fine in 2023. Fast forward to June 2025, My engine failed. I took it back to the dealership and they tested it and said "it was not bad enough to be fixed under the recall." Before I took it the dealership the check engine light was on, reduced power when accelerating, knocking noise from the engine that increases when the rpms increase, and the oil pressure light is flashing. Upon taking it to the dealership the check engine light has been turned off, but all the other issues still remain. All of these issues were components to the recall. I have called Customer Care and they assured me that it would be fixed at no cost under the recall, and then I requested a different dealership due to terrible customer service at the prior dealership. Customer Care then contacted prior dealership, and went based on the incorrect findings of the dealership, they are refusing to fix my engine that is under recall. Because they inspected it in 2023 they marked the recall campaign as closed.

My 2017 Hyundai Tucson 1.6 liter is experiencing severe engine issues that closely mirror those subject to recent class action lawsuits. The engine exhibits excessive oil consumption. I have experienced a sudden loss of power on roadways in traffic as well as on the highway. This issue happened just today. Unfortunately due to a loss of smell, I have been unable to smell if there has been burning oil, however in between my last two oil changes (I only bought the car in October) I had to go it to get it refilled or refill it myself. I use full synthetic oil as well. I brought it into a reputable mechanic and I have been told if I continue to drive the vehicle the excessive oil consumption will lead to premature engine failure, potentially causing a dangerous stall or accident, putting myself and other motorists or pedestrians at risk. The mechanic received codes P0420, P0300, P0302, P0303, and P0304. They were able to conclude oil consumption based on the low amount of oil in the vehicle, the spark plugs being oil fouled, the misfiring on three cylinders, and the P0420 code. I called customer service, the Hyundai dealership in Clive, IA, and the contact for the class action lawsuit and litigation II. I was informed my VIN number was not part of the current recalls or class action, however the symptoms are identical to those widely reported. In the litigation my make and model are mentioned, Hyundai Tucson 2017, however it is listed as the 2.0 liter engine. My engine is mentioned, the 1.6 liter, in at least one other vehicle. I believe this vehicle was only excluded by a lack of representation at the time of the litigations. From my call with the dealership, and in research I am not the only one experiencing this problem. While I was lucky enough not to have been harmed, this has the potential to cause great harm. As someone who works for a DOT, safety first is in everything I do. I believed this necessary to report for the safety of all those involved.

I have a 2017 Hyundai Tucson with approximately 120,000 miles. The vehicle had issues with oil consumption and jerking when put into drive. I took the vehicle to the dealership to be checked and was told it was fine. I recently was driving at 70 mph when the engine light came on and lost power. I had it towed to a mechanic that checked and cylinder #3 had lost compression. After finding this out I did an internet research and found that this is a common issue with this motor and vehicle. My vin is not included in the recall but Hyundai has replaced other engines in “goodwill” when the vin number was not included. One search shows that it usually happens from 120,000 to 150,000 miles. After the mechanic looked at the vehicle, Hyundai instructed me to take it to a dealership. After another tow to the dealership they said it was only the spark plugs but upon futher investigation they found that the cylinder was damaged with scoring to engine. The cost for a used engine with 54,000 miles is 10,000 and is more than the value of the car and the remaining loan amount of 10,000. So far we are out approximately 300.00 in towing fees. The dealership has not yet billed us for the checking they have done. We have contacted Hyundai with a response of no help to replace the engine even though the company has helped others in our situation. We haven’t replaced the motor due to the amount owed, cost of used motor vs the value of the vehicle. The safety of the vehicle is very questionable due to the high incidence of this happening and there could have been catastrophic consequences if I would not have been able to pull off the road.

On [July 4, 2025], while driving, my vehicle experienced a sudden loss of power followed by smoke and flames coming from the engine compartment. The fire required emergency response and caused significant damage to the vehicle. Thankfully, no one was injured, but the incident posed a serious risk to my safety and others on the road. I had not received any prior warning signs such as engine knocking or warning lights. The fire appears to be directly related to the known defect outlined in Recall 209. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate this incident and ensure Hyundai is held accountable for the full scope of this defect, including fire risk. I am also seeking assistance in ensuring Hyundai provides appropriate compensation or resolution for the damages caused.

The car has issues with major oil consumption, and a chatter engine noise, also has issues with acceleration. Oil will run dry if not topped off every 3 weeks.

Vehicle Make/Model/Year: Hyundai Tucson 2017 NHTSA: Recall Number 21V727000 Description of Problem: My vehicle is affected by a known safety recall related to the engine (likely recall campaign P1326 or similar, affecting Hyundai engines). I contacted the authorized Hyundai dealership to schedule the recall service. However, the dealership is requiring me to pay out-of-pocket for parts and/or tests — specifically, they mentioned charging for testing engine gaskets/joints — before confirming whether they will replace the engine under the recall. The recall notice clearly states that diagnosis, testing, and any necessary engine replacement should be done at no cost to the consumer. The dealership’s request for payment appears to be in violation of federal recall laws. I am being forced to delay this safety repair because I cannot afford these unexpected charges, which I believe are not allowed under NHTSA recall policies. This compromises my safety and could affect many other consumers in the same situation. Please investigate this dealership’s handling of the recall. I am requesting that Hyundai be held accountable for ensuring proper and legal recall service.

Power windows will go down by driver buttons but driver buttons will not work to make windows go back up. Engine is stalling, can smell exhaust, manifold is said to be needed to be replaced. Burns oil badly.

limp mode check engine light code p1326

My engine needs to be replaced. Out of nowhere it failed. No stuttering, no stalling, no check engine light or any other warnings. Just failed.

While driving under normal conditions, the engine began misfiring and losing power. Inspection revealed that two of the spark plugs had suffered a broken ceramic insulator, which likely occurred during a pre-ignition or detonation. As a result, the ceramic insulators were pushed through the engine causing at least one of the exhaust valves to burn leading to loss of compression resulting in engine failure on the highway. This engine has no current recall, despite numerous similar complaints. Hyundai has issued detonation-related recalls for other engines (like the Theta II), yet the 1.6L Turbo GDI engine in this Tucson is also experiencing similar failures. At the time of this complaint there are 955 complaints in the NTHSA database about this vehicle with more than half citing engine failure issues — many of them sudden and severe failures while driving. This creates both a safety risk and an excessive financial burden. These failures occur without warning and can leave the driver stranded. It is concerning that Hyundai has not acknowledged a defect pattern, despite consistent failure modes being reported across this engine type. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate the 1.6L Gamma II Turbo engine for potential systemic detonation or pre-ignition issues that can lead to severe engine damage. A recall or special service campaign should be considered, and Hyundai should be held accountable to cover these repairs.

The vehicle is experiencing severe engine shaking and misfiring during operation. Initial diagnostics confirmed that the spark plugs and ignition coils are functioning correctly and are not the source of the problem. A compression test revealed that two cylinders have no compression, indicating a likely internal engine failure. Potential causes include damaged or worn piston rings, valves, or a blown head gasket. This condition results in rough idling, reduced power, poor drivability, and potential long-term engine damage if not addressed promptly. Immediate engine repair or replacement is required.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the low oil light illuminated, and the vehicle was shaking abnormally. The contact added oil to the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed with oil shavings in the oil pan and engine failure. The contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. The dealer was made aware of the failure but provided no assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was filed. The contact was advised to contact the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 101,000.

Mileage: 101,000

Car cuts off when driving the speed drops down automatically stops the dash lights go out and can’t start it right away

I was returning home from a 224 mile trip. I was driving 65mph with the AC on low. Vehicle started slowing and losing power. I pulled over at the next possible location when I noticed the engine light was blinking then stayed solid yellow. I tried to rev the engine a few times only to be met with engine shutter and misfire. Had to have the vehicle towed the remaining 65 miles home. Took the vehicle to my mechanic where he stated cylinder 3 and 4 misfiring and told me this is a common problem with this vehicle. After doing my own investigations, I see this vehicle has an extensive history of the same problem from several other people. But yet no recall.... Why?

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while driving 35 MPH, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended while depressing the accelerator pedal. The vehicle hesitated, and the contact pulled over to a parking lot. The check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to O'Reilly's and was diagnosed with spark plug failures. The vehicle was taken to Meineke, where it was diagnosed and determined that the engine had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was towed to the dealer where it was confirmed that the engine had failed and needed to be replaced. The engine was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000.

Mileage: 100,000

It is my belief that the engine is failing or has something wrong, due to an engine recall. I started having issues with acceleration and took it to a local mechanic who advised it was an engine issue and needed to be taken to the Hyundai dealer asap. As of today, May 27, 2025, it was taken to Autonation Hyundai in Columbia, SC who is alleging that all engine recalls related to my vehicle are not covering any engine issues. I have had this car for quite a while and have never had any issues until now. Multiple diagnostics have been performed.

There is an excessive engine oil consumption on the 1.6L turbo charged motor. Motor oil is completely depleted between recommended oil changes. It is a necessary to add roughly 1qt of oil per 1,000 miles driven, between oil changes, in order to maintain safe oil levels. No signs of leakage, therefore oil is burning at an unsafe rate.

In February of 2025, my oil lamp warning light came on. My husband checked the oil dipstick and noticed that it didn't have any oil on it. There was a visible burn mark as well. I called my local Hyundai dealer to schedule an appointment to see why my car was burning oil like that as it was not due for an oil change. The appointment was made for February 20, 2025. My car at that time had 79,803 miles on it. The Hyundai dealer suggested performing an engine combustion cleaning service, per Hyundai, to see if it would "fix" the problem. They also went ahead and did an oil change. After these services were done, I was told to bring the car back in after 1,000 miles. Hyundai's guidelines are that they allow 1 quart of oil loss per every 1,000 miles. I brought the car back to the Hyundai dealer after 1,000 miles and that was in April of 2025. I was told that my vehicle passed the inspection. The oil level on the dipstick was in the "normal range." After a few weeks, my husband checked the oil level again just to make sure the engine wasn't burning any additional oil since we were not convinced that the engine combustion cleaning service solved the problem. He checked it on May 11, 2025. The dipstick showed that it was below the L. I called the Hyundai dealer once again, and they were able to get me in on Tuesday, May 13th. My mileage was 81,792 on the day I brought it back in. They confirmed that it had burned over 2 quarts of oil in less than 2,000 miles. That is more oil consumption than Hyundai "allows" per their 1 quart of oil for every 1,000 miles rule. The dealer put in a request to Hyundai for a new engine replacement and I was denied due to my vehicle having no warranty.

Blind spot warning stopped working due to electric issues. Engine started miss firing causing a turn over issue and loud knocking. Brought to auto shop and was diagnosed that engine is failing.

1)Component that failed: Engine 2)Driving 75 miles on the interstate in traffic and suddenly losing speed was very dangerous. 3)Yes, the issue is still occurring, even worse now as my vehicle shakes just starting the engine. 4) The mechanic has inspected, diagnosed and attempted to repair. However due to the condition of the engine, and the cost of replacing it; fixing may not be an option. 5)The engine light began flashing and then went off; then back to steady on. I purchased this 2017 Hyundai Tucson used just 4 years ago. Everything seemed to be working just fine, I've had regular oil changes. On Saturday, May 10, 2025, as I was driving on the Interstate with my cruise control set, I began to lose power and my speed slowed. I took my car off of cruise control and pushed on the gas pedal to gain speed and my car started to shake and it struggled to pick up speed. My mechanic has changed the spark plugs and performed a BG upper engine induction cleaning; did compression testing and leak down testing. He found that cylinder 4 has no compression. In addition to that, he noticed there was oil on the spark plug. I had my oil changed 3 months ago, and less than 3,000 miles - my engine is burning up the oil to the point where the oil level is extremely low. I have now found out that this is a known issue with this type of vehicle. I'm told it's $10,000 to replace the engine. I have no warranty coverage since I'm not the original owner. I was not aware of the class action lawsuit that was settled last year. I'm extremely upset that Hyundai has not recalled ALL the engines for this make and model of vehicle as it seems EVERYONE has had engine problems.

Purchased this in June of 2024. Ran fine until August 19th 2024 when I was returning to work from my lunch break. I went home for lunch and everything was fine. On the way back, I was pulling out into highway speed traffic and while merging, the engine just stopped. No warning lights or anything. It just stopped running. The vehicles behind me luckily were able to see what happened and get around me without incident. Once I was able to coast back to a safe area, I proceeded to try to restart it with nothing but a click as a response. Tried a few more times with same result. Called roadside assistance and proceeded to check under hood. Found oil stick barely showing any oil when just under 2 months ago it was full, and I had not seen any warning light indicating low oil. Took oil cap off and felt what was inside and found metal shavings in oil. Roadside showed and pretty much confirmed the metal shavings and my worst fear. Still had it taken to a Hyundai dealership where they told me the motor was seized at it would be $13,200 to fix. Asked about the existing class action suit and pretty got told my engine wasn't part of it. After looking at all the complaints here, not seeing how they CANT classify this as a major issue. Still fighting with dealership I purchased from to get something done.

No compression in one of the cylinders, oil blow by, oil consumption approx 1 quart per 1000 miles. Now has developed a serious miss in cylinders 2 and 4 and is undrivable.

I was driving home from the store a short distance from my home. The check engine light came on, the car ran rough, lost power and would not accelerate. I was able to get home. My husband checked the oil; it was 2 quarts low. He previously changed the oil 3000 miles prior. He connected a code reader and it read "DCT 1326". I drove slowly on the berm of the road & able to get home. Had I been on an interstate, my life could have been endangered. Top speed a rough 30-40 mph. After my internet search it appears that oil consumption and engine loss is a common problem. My car has less than 60K miles. No prior history and oil changed every 5K miles.I am very upset about the lack of responsibility on Hyundai's part. This is our 3rd Hyundai and we were loyal customers. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Oil consumption issues upon oil change no oil registered at all. It was confirmed no leaking and was advised to contact due to recall on this motor using oil. Also advised to request request a motor replacement due to this vehicle already showing signs of this issue to assure it doesn’t lock up.

My car became disabled due to engine failure on the highway. My vehicle is no longer drivable. My warning lights did not come on prior to the incident.

Sole owner of 2017 Hyundai Tucson with approx 55,700k miles. Check engine light on and car not accelerating properly. Had same acceleration problem a year ago without engine light, Hyundai dealership stated I needed software update on anti judder gds, update was completed by Hyundai and the issue has reoccurred.

The engine is failing. Our vehicle continues to experience tremendous oil consumption and it's all of a sudden gone into "limp mode" where we lose engine power even after the knock sensor recall update was performed. No check engine lights, no indication of what's happening and it just loses power on the highway as well as city streets. It's a danger to everyone around us and it's a danger for us as we try to drive the vehicle. The dealer / Hyundai had us do 2 oil consumption tests but would not do anything to fix the issue. They informed us they needed to replace the engine after the first oil consumption but then they backed off of that and didn't fix the issue. It’s just gotten worse. We also had a transmission service done and they said the transmission looked fine. We took it in for a diagnostic just after this as the power issue began in "limp mode" where we lose engine power. They are trying to say it needs a new transmission but with the known issues with the Hyundai oil consumption and engine issues where the vehicles go into power loss / limp mode, we’re reporting this issue for our safety and the safety of the community as it’s unsafe to drive this care. We hope you will push Hyundai to do a recall for the engine not just for us but for all Hyundai Owners who are dealing with the same issue.

Engine experienced a catastrophic failure. Driving (normal commute) and clicking noise start coming from the engine. Got louder over a short time, but no dash waring lights came on. Further along the check engine light came, and when it started flashing I pulled over and called for roadside assistance (tow). No other warning lights came on. Engine temp read normal throughout. After the dealer service team reviewed, said the engine block was cracked and metal noted in the oil and filter. I contacted Hyundai USA to see if they would cover engine replacement. After a few days of review and back and forth with the dealer, they declined any claim. Dealer service rep quoted us approx $20k for engine replacement. We opted to sell to salvage company and now need to buy another car. Just over 66,000 miles and complete loss.

Car is burning oil. Oil change done at 3k and no oil in vehicle at all. Transmission shakes violently on start up and first movement and slips shifting gears. No response sometimes when pressing gas pedal to go

Car went into limp mode on the highway because of high oil consumption. Car came to a complete stop.

While driving down the interstate the vehicle would not accelerate and the RPMs were fluctuating. We were luckily near an exit and were able to pull into a gas station. The check engine light came on. Once we parked the engine stalled and we were not able to restart. We had the vehicle towed to a AAA certified mechanic, they stated there was no oil and that the engine needed to be replaced. We did not receive any low oil indicators for the vehicle. We had the vehicle flat bed towed back to our home town where a 2nd mechanic indicated that there was still some oil in the vehicle but that the engine would need to be replaced. The VIN for this car shows no engine recall but this appears to be the same issue that has resulted in Hyundai engine recall with the 2.0 vehicles.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed uphill, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended while depressing the accelerator pedal. The check engine oil warning light was illuminated. The vehicle hesitated, and the contact pulled over to the side of the road. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or the dealer. The contact stated that there was oil leaking from the exhaust pipe. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V727000 (Engine); however, the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 117,000.

I had my oil changed at a Hyundai dealership at 102,000 miles however even before the next oil change was due my engine had a bearing failure. The dealership could not fix my car for months and that I should find another Hyundai dealership to fix the issue. The next dealership told me that the cost was $14000k to fix and that the engine had oil sludge buildup. My Carfax report is shows consistent and provable oil maintenance every 3K - 4K miles. The engine had been consuming oil which I report to the dealership but sine there was not any check engine light they did not do anything about the consumption problem. I have not yet had the vehicle inspected by independent mechanic or anyone else. no warning lights ever came on that alerted me to low oil.

A knocking noise from the engine. The dealership is refusing to give us a warranty for the rebuilt of the engine that we will be covering 40% of the cost. Is this possible? For us to spend approximately $7K and not get a warranty on the work done?

There is metal shards in the oil from the engine. The oil burns up within a week or so. The guy at the oil change place said it was common in these make and model cars and I need a new engine. It can stall or catch fire which can pose a risk to me and/or other cars on the road. I drive around with a [XXX] son it's my daily car and the engine is not good. We are constantly having to put oil in it. Other vehicles from this company have been recalled for the same issue. Please have it inspected and fixed. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Engine failed at 137,000 miles. The vehicle is available for inspection. The engine failed while driving with no warning lights, or indications that anything was wrong. It started with a knock that gradually got worse and worse over the course of 5 miles. Once it shut down it failed to ever restart again. Te vehicle was inspected by a Manufacturer Dealership, they did not give me specific insights as to what caused the engine to fail other than that there was no oil present in the engine at the time of inspection. However I have every oil change receipt, documenting regular, on time oil changes.

Since reaching approximately 79,000 miles on my vehicle (which I am the original owner of), I have noticed excessive oil consumption. Over the course of 3,000 miles between oil changes, the vehicle consumed about 4 quarts of oil, and the oil lamp came on. Additionally, I consistently experience the smell of burning oil inside the cabin whenever I back in or out of parking spaces/my garage, which poses a health risk. Beyond the health concerns, there are potential consequences, including engine damage, fire risks, reduced performance, and with that, an increased likelihood of accidents. While Hyundai acknowledges that this is a known issue, they have done little to offer a proper solution, merely attempting to keep the consumption within barely acceptable limits. Thank you for taking note of this problem.

My 2017 Hyundai tucson is consumeing oil at a steady rate. Took it to dealership roughly year to do oil consumption test. They said my headgasket, turbo, and pil pan was all leaking. They replaced those parts before starting oil consumption test would be performed. $3,300 later still consuming roughly 1 quart per 500 miles. It faild the oil consumption test and i was advised to do a combustion chamber cleaning next. $700 later and im burning 1 quart roughly every 1k miles. Took it back to them and said thats normal and it is fixed. I'm very concerned considering no car should burn that much oil in between 3k oil changes and only holds 5 quarts of oil. I also have 2 young children and wife that regularly drive the car and it's sluggish when getting on the gas like entering the highway and I'm worried the engine may just go out of nowhere. My local dealership doesn't really care nor does corporate. This is my last ditch effort to get something done. I know I and many, many, many, others are also dealing with this and something needs done soon. Thank you for your time.

My car has been burning oil for over a year. there is no leak. I have been putting three quarts in every 4 to 6 weeks. I have now replaced two coil packs and the spark plugs. my engine light is on because it said 3 and 4 was misfiring so i recently replaced those coil packs and now it said spark plug and i replaced it again as well. so the engine light coming on and what it says the problem is is wrong. now when i push the gas it is knocking or missing. not sure how to describe it. no one has looked at it other than a friend that is a mechanic and he says its probably the engine because this kind of car has these problems.

Excessive oil consumption, engine started knocking, dealer confirmed needs engine replacement which is covered under ONLY original 1st owner and NOT subsequent owner. Hyundai refuses help. Have not been able to drive my Tucson for a year. Still paying monthly payments and insurance

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle hesitated while depressing the accelerator pedal. The contact stated that the oil light was flashing on the instrument panel while turning the steering wheel. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where the contact was informed that the vehicle was consuming an excessive amount of oil. The vehicle was taken to a dealer for an oil consumption test and the oil was topped off. The contact was instructed to bring the vehicle back after 1,000 miles. Upon investigation, the contact discovered that the engine oil consumption failure was widely reported. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer as instructed, and the contact was informed that the engine had not consumed enough oil to be considered a defect. The contact was advised to purchase a factory-made oil filter from the dealer because the independent mechanic had not used the proper oil filter on the oil change. The contact stated that at the follow-up oil change, the independent mechanic used the factory oil filter; however, the failure persisted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed that the vehicle was not under recall or warranty. The vehicle remained with the independent mechanic unrepaired. The failure mileage was approximately 98,000.

Mileage: 98,000

My vehicle began experiencing issues around 83,000 miles. The engine started burning oil, showed shuddering during acceleration, and there was a noticeable smell of gasoline inside the cabin. Eventually, the car wouldn’t start, so I had it towed to the dealership. The technicians confirmed it was running rough and behaving abnormally. The Hyundai dealership conducted a full inspection and diagnosed several issues. They replaced the spark plugs, performed a GDI-safe induction cleaning, replaced the coolant and brake fluids, completed a transmission fluid service, installed a new battery, carried out wheel alignments, and changed the cabin air filter. All of this work was completed in October 2024. However, in December 2024, I had to return to the dealership because the fuel smell inside the cabin persisted. Although they couldn’t find the source of the issue, the smell eventually disappeared after the visit. Following that, I was advised to check my oil every 3,000 miles due to the GDI engine's reputation for burning oil quickly. Despite this, the car began running rough again, and when I checked the oil, it was completely dry—well before reaching the 3,000-mile mark. I had to get another oil change sooner than expected. Unfortunately, the issue continued. I brought the vehicle back to the dealership for another inspection. They suggested starting a monitoring process where I would bring the car in every 1,000 miles to check the oil levels. After driving 1,000 miles, the oil level was just slightly above the low mark—still not normal for such a short distance. I urgently need assistance to move forward with the engine replacement process before my warranty expires. I am currently at 91,000 miles.

Car would not accelerate after getting on the interstate. Had to ease vehicle off exit ramp to side of road. Multiple engine lights on. Car would no longer start. Had independent mechanic shop evaluate as well as local Hyundai dealership. Both determined internal compression rod failure. Only solution is to replace engine. It is a 1.6L T for 2017 Tucson. The VIN for this car shows no engine recall but is the exact same issue that has resulted in Hyundai engine recall with the 2.0 vehicles.

Despite proper maintenance, at 100k miles the engine started knocking aggressively and the dealership advised me not to drive it or it would throw a rod in the very near future. It started burning oil around 80k miles. This is the Limited model with the gamma engine that was not included in the recalls of the other Tuscon engine, but seems to have the same problem.

The engine entered limp mode, lost oil pressure and began knocking. Vehicle was brought to a dealer where it remained for ~1 month. The dealer inspected the vehicle, and determined it to be a valve cover leak, which does not track given the issues. When picked up from the dealer, the engine seized shortly down the road. Upon my own inspection, it was found that the engine oil drain plug was missing. It is unclear if the dealer loosened the drain plug during their inspection, or if it fell out due to some other issue. In either case, the manufacturer and their representative (dealership) created a dangerous situation for the driver of that vehicle, which had to be pushed out of moving traffic during a busy time of day.

Within last oil change the engine had oil consumption and has a loud engine knocking sound. The upcoming oil change date had not been exceeded and/or miles had not been exceeded. The engine knock caused me to pull over immediately at a location on a highly traveled road and no shoulder or safe spot which was dangerous. Safety was a concern because I had to wait for a tow truck in cold winter weather. The local Hyundai dealership maintenance person said it was a known issue with that make and model and the repair wait time is 5 months because they don't have enough staff and cannot get parts. My tuscan just had an inspection at the last oil change on 10/22/2024. no report from Hyundai that the oil level was an issue or engine having problems. There not any warning lights or low level lights and/or noises until it suddenly happened.

Engine knocking began around 132,000 miles and caused intermittent loss of power while driving. This caused me to slow down at random intervals while on the roadway becoming a hazard for other drivers. Engine light activated shortly before the symptoms began. No inspections done yet.

Massive engine failure on well maintained vehicle. Vehicle has been inspected by two mechanics, one private and one dealership. Both recommend engine replacement.

KSDS system continuously going off saying the knock sensor needs to be replaced and puts the car in limp mode. The car continuously going into limp mode even after knock sensor is replaced.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that several months after purchasing the vehicle, the vehicle was shaking abnormally while started. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that there was an abnormal amount of carbon build up on the valves and the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 90,000.

Mileage: 90,000

The transmission in my vehicle failed while driving and the car completely shut off while driving. Less than 4 months after replacing the transmission with a brand new transmission, the engine failed while driving on the highway. The engine started sputtering, then it started smoking, then the car stalled.

Greetings, I have had issues with the Hyundai Tucson 2017 I own for many months. Issues include among others an abnormal knocking noise from the engine, reduced engine power and/or hesitation, burning smell, oil leaking, and smoke coming out of the engine, misfires, and other issues. It happened many times on the highway and almost caused accidents and the last time it happened, the vehicle was towed, and recently the smoke coming from the engine forced me to pull over. I reported the issue to the dealer but they didn't recall or address the issue. The car has been maintained properly over time and now I fear for my life. It is totally unfair that about 100k of this brand have been recalled for the same issue, in my case it is just after I finished to pay in full the vehicle. I seek your support to have it addressed for safety

I am constantly having to add oil to my car. It burns oil. It is not leaking oil. I have 81000 miles on my car. I get my oil changed regularly.

My car hesitates when leaving a stop sign or light. It is random and I have no power to continue. If I put car in park than go sometimes it works, sometimes push down on gas more or sometimes I have to turn car off than back on. 2 near miss accidents

I was driving on [XXX] and the acceleration just started to drastically slow down. I was able to get to the shoulder where the car completely died and wouldn’t cut back on and I had it towed to South Bay Hyundai in Torrance. They said it’s engine failure but they haven’t completed the full inspection yet. I have been using Uber and need a car rental because I can’t afford to sustain this huge inconvenience indefinitely.

My transmission has failed fully. It cannot even reverse. I took my car into Hyundai several times to check on the issue and they said the same thing, that the transmission slipping is a standard issue for dual clutch. I told them over and over that this is different. I did some research as to how to have them cover it and have it changed but the dealership said nothings wrong. Fast forward and now my cars transmission is fully gone and it probably won’t be covered when I know that it should have been part of the recall ! Just this year I’ve spent $5000 on repairs for this vehicle and now I’m looking at another $5000 for only a 7 year old vehicle. If that does not constitute a lemon I don’t know what does.

Car is using an abnormally large amount of oil. I reported to Hyundai. They sent me to a Hyundai dealership for an Oil Consumption Test. They confirmed that I do not have an oil leak under the automobile. The dealer is telling me “it’s completely NORMAL TO BURN THROUGH 1 QUART OF OIL FOR EVERY 1,000 MILES”. That would leave my automobile with only two quarts of oil after driving 3,000 miles. The owner’s manual does not state any of this. Now I am paying a significant amount of money on Oil Consumption Tests of which they are telling me I might need several before they MIGHT fix the problem. This 2017 Hyundai Tucson is one of the models and years affected.

The engine developed a knocking sound at 97,018 miles. When it was checked, it did not have any oil in it at all, regardless of there not being an oil leak in the system. The car received regular service. When we took it to Hyundai they did a test and confirmed that it was burning oil. This engine malfunction put my [XXX] daughter, the primary driver, at risk for engine failure while driving it. The engine light and knocking sound happened with no warning. Yes, the problem was confirmed by the Reed Hyundai of Kansas City. They told us that the car needs a new engine and that they bear no responsibility for the malfunction. The engine lights and sounds happened simultaneously. The vehicle was immediately stopped and towed to the dealership.

The car suddenly stopped accelerating. There were no signs that something was wrong prior. I was driving on the highway when I felt a loss of power, then my check engine light started blinking. The car entered “limp mode” and the engine started knocking. The code it was showing was for a knock sensor, I replaced that and it still would not accelerate. There is something wrong with the rod bearings and I was told by the dealership that this is a common problem with the type of engine they use in these vehicles.

In August 2024, the engine of the vehicle suddenly started making a very loud knocking noise, with no previous warning lights. We did not feel it was safe to drive. We saw online that a recall was underway by Hyundai for 2017 Tucsons due to problems with the rod bearings, where metal spreads throughout the engine. There is the potential for the engine to catch fire, and a complete engine replacement is recommended. This was confirmed by the dealership where we bought the vehicle, Boucher Hyundai of Waukesha, which told us they are replacing the engines in many of these vehicles. However, our VIN was not included in the recall, although the problem is identical to what is described in the recall. We had the car towed to the dealership; after confirming the problem, the dealership filed a claim with Hyundai seeking to add our VIN to the recall. We included all of the maintenance records since we bought the vehicle in January 2021 with 64K miles. Hyundai rejected the claim, citing a gap in the maintenance records from 64,000-124,000 miles. The dealership questioned that, since they had submitted our maintenance records and there were no gaps. Hyundai again denied the claim, citing a gap in the maintenance records from 17,000-29,000 miles - before we owned the vehicle. We called Hyundai customer service seeking an explanation; they said that the decision is made by Hyundai Motor America, a different entity, which only the dealership can contact, not vehicle owners. The customer service rep's only suggestion was to file a claim with your agency. The vehicle is parked and undriveable; it is available for inspection.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle stalled with no warning light illuminated. The contact did not have to restart the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 80,964.

Engine light notification was not present before, during or after the complete engine failure of the vehicle while driving. Per dealership, they are unable to find a replacement motor and are going to rebuild the engine.

I change the oil every 2000 miles and use what it states. Second oil change that noticed the oil drained out of the vehicle was close to nothing. First of all no warning indication oil was that low. It vibrates when it’s still and when you accelerate it tugs. Took it to the dealership where purchased extended warranty. Temporary fix is combustion cleaning with re seat piston rings then a valve cleaning and pcv replacement. Permanent solution replace the engine which warranty won’t cover since it’s technically not broken. Charging me ridiculous amount money for temporary fix. What if the oil goes else where or doesn’t notified low oil. It can catch on fire or all of sudden stops. I have my two babies with me in the car always it’s our family car. Vehicle has been inspected by dealership not inspected by police insurance representatives or others. No indication no warning signs pop up of low oil. It’s consuming too much oil which it’s going to other places in the engine which can cause fire risk. I’m trying to prevent the engine cause a fire or risk to myself or my family.

The engineer lost all oil and immediately started making a knocking noise.

Was driving down highway and vehicle lost power and shut off. Brought car to mechanic shop they ran a diagnostic and tore down the engine to see what the problem was. They found the problem was with oil consumption and carbon buildup. Oil was leaking through the pistons,piston rings into the combustion chamber, which in part was causing oil to go through the exhaust system. They found oil in the exhaust pipes and the catalytic converter and the exhaust manifold. The catalytic converter had to be replaced because it was clogged with all the oil that was leaking through the exhaust system from the combustion chamber. They found carbon buildup on the pistons, the piston rings and inside the combustion chamber

The contact owned a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that the vehicle was unoccupied and parked at the residence for a couple of days, he received a call from a neighbor informing that there was a fire at his residence. The contact was not home at the time and upon arrival, he observed the vehicle engulfed in flames. The fire then quickly spread from the vehicle to the stand-alone garage and driveway causing damage. The contact and a neighbor attempted to extinguish the fire but were unsuccessful. The fire department extinguished the fire. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed by the insurance company to the salvage lot where a forensic specialist was pending an investigation per the manufacturer and was yet to produce any information. The contact mentioned that the vehicle burned leaving only the framing remains. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 110,000.

The engine appears to have a malfunction, particularly related to acceleration and oil consumption. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. The vehicle experiences sudden jerking during acceleration, which can lead to loss of control and increase the risk of a collision. Additionally, stalling can occur unexpectedly, posing a significant hazard, especially in traffic. Yes, the issue has been confirmed by a local dealership, where they noted the jerking during acceleration and the high oil consumption. Yes, the vehicle has been inspected by the dealership, but it has not been inspected by the manufacturer or insurance representatives. There were no warning lamps or messages prior to the incidents. The symptoms first appeared approximately 8 months ago and is ongoing.

I reported a problem with my engine to the Clay Cooley Hyundai dealership (Mesquite) in April 2022. I told them that my oil was burning a lot faster than normal. My car was currently under warranty at the time, which would have covered a new engine replacement. The dealership instructed me to do “oil consumption” tests and had me come in every 1000 miles to see if there were any oil leaks. Once I completed the tests, they told me to do another round of testing, which I thought was odd. I ended up doing tests from April-October 2022, and by the time I was finished my warranty expired. They said that my engine was fine and good to drive. I took my car to the same dealership in August 2024 with the same issue and that my engine wasn’t accelerating. They are now telling that there is a problem with my engine and charging me a new one for $10k. It would've been covered under my warranty in 2022, but they had me drive over the warranty limit so that a new engine wouldn’t be covered anymore. After doing research, there was a Class Action lawsuit about the engine for my vehicle. The problem is damage to the engine’s connecting rod bearings. You could hear a knocking sound from my engine. This issue has been happening from 2022-2024. I had to do oil changes more frequently. After consulting with a local auto care shop, they said it was a manufacturing problem. Hyundai put me back on the road with an unsafe car. The engine should have been fixed back in 2022. Hyundai Corporate is only offering to pay 50% of the engine (I would have to pay $5k-8k). I feel like they knew about the bad engine because of the lawsuit, and the reason I had to do a second round of tests was to drive over the warranty mileage.

The engine started to lose power and then completely died the engine and oil lights came on the car would restart for about 30 sec but would not move when put into drive it broke down on [XXX] extremely dangerous road road with traffic moving above 55 mph I was broke down in the center lane after I called a tow truck and placed a call to the WSP in fear of getting killed on this road this caused extreme anxiety and loss of wages due to this trauma This is the 3rd time this same vehicle broke down The first time I had it towed to the dealership in Bellingham WA where they said it was a cracked spark plug ? And charged $650 to replace still under warranty the 2nd time this vehicle broke down I towed to a certified mechanic it was a burnt valve the repair cost was $4000 and didn't appear to fix the engine knocking noise and was hesitant a short lived band side for a faulty engine that Hyundai did not include this model in class action lawsuit same engine as other recalled motors but they left this car out because they sold so many INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while his girlfriend was driving approximately 50 MPH, the engine started knocking, and the vehicle stalled. The contact stated that several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The contact stated that the engine was consuming one quart of oil every week. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who determined that the engine was blown. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed that the drive belt was frayed, the crank pulley was deteriorating, and that there was a misfire in cylinder #4. The catalytic convertor DTC code: P0240 was displayed, the exhaust was burned, and there was excessive oil consumption. The manufacturer was contacted, and the contact was informed that there was no warranty coverage on the vehicle. There was no assistance provided. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000.

The engine is consuming extreme amounts of oil. 1-2 quarts a week. The oil light does not alert that oil is low and could cause a very dangerous situation. My car was running and just stopped while driving because oil had coated the spark plugs. Hyundai refused to honor my warranty. They want the car for 6 months to put new motor and only after I pay $1000 for a cleaning when they even admitted it was a known problem and I should "try to sell the car as fast as possible and not mention the oil consumption" I've continued trying to get them to correct this since November 2023

My engine in 2023 was burning oil excessively, which caused my CAT to become clogged. I was unable to drive the vehicle and had to have both replaced by Hyundai. I paid partial for the CAT. A year later now in 2024, this “new” engine is doing the same and my new CAT is clogged again. I had to add oil continuously. Now they are refusing to fix anything

On [XXX] my daughter was driving in Meridian Ms and when she was at a red light the 2017 Hyundai Tuscon that she was driving started shaking and all the lights on the dashboard came on and she couldn't drive because it wouldn't move. She called a tow truck to have it taken to Firestone. When they looked at it, they said the reading was spark plugs and fuel injectors that needed to be replaced. After they did that, the car still would not work. We paid 1300.00 dollars for them to do this. We then had it towed to Hyundai in Flowood Ms. We learned that the whole engine needs to be replaced. We Take very good care of our cars and this shouldnt be happening. I see that there is an extended warranty for 2017 tucsons with engine failures, but our particular engine is not included in this. We have a turbo 1.6. I asked Hyundai why these particular motors are not included and they didnt know. I found alot of people are having the same engine issues as I am and i think Hyundai needs to help me out. The replacement cost of this is going to be about $10000.00 dollars. My car only has 84000.00 miles on it. Hyundai knows that there are problems with these vehicles but refuse to be any help what so ever. I just dont understand why my engine isn't included in their 150000.00 mile warranty. I dont know where else to turn for help. Thank you.

Engine began to sputter then immediately shut down as I was driving. After parking safely, there were traces of metal in the oil & the oil was a milky color. Ran the code and it came up as an issue with the rod bearings.

Took my 2017 Hyundai Tucson 1.6t engine into the service center on 8/21 for a check engine light and Bluelink notification of "A possible condition with your Engine Control System has been detected" that came on Sunday 8/18. Service center diagnosed P0326 ($159.00) From the service center: We have pulled code P0326 for an issue with the knock sensor readings. The vehicle can sue an oil change as is due and there is a gasket leak which sounds like it is from turbo or manifold gasket which is causing that rattling noise you're hearing. Below is the three itemized recommendations for this vehicle. 1) Knock sensor replacement -$635 +taxes installed 2) Oil change recommended $ 85 +taxes 3) Turbo gasket replacement $205 + taxes installed. I bought my car in 2020 and only have 53,000miles on it and was told it's out of warranty so this isn't covered - even though the 2017 Tucson's are recalled/warranty for life for engine issues for the same exact reasons mine was brought in for. This is my second hyundai, which I have always loved; however, I am disappointed in the quality of car not being up to standard due to manufacturing, and I am paying the price for it. The10yr/100k mile and 5yr/60k mile warranty advertising is misleading and deceiving. If I could go back, I wouldn't have bought a hyundai

Engine Failure cause by failed connecting rod bearing. Engine will need to be fully replaced to correct failure. SAME ISSUE AS RECALL 21V-727: Connecting Rod bearing inside the engine may wear prematurely, resulting in internal engine damage. Please help :-(

Check engine light came on after regular maintainer of car and a new timing belt was put on. Engine is making knocking noise and running not smooth at all. Car burns oils at a very high rate and is almost out of oil at 3,000 miles when I am told typical cars like this should last close to 5000 miles. Again I am getting regular maintenance and oil changes. Car had a little over 100,000 miles and 1 previous owner.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle had suddenly decelerated and would not properly accelerate. Upon inspection, the contact discovered that the engine oil level was extremely low due to excessive oil consumption. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The manufacturer and local dealer were notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 149,000.

Mileage: 149,000

The vehicle has 83,000 miles. It burns through 10 quarts of oil per 5,000 miles. No oil or check engine light comes on. Twice It has been dry when having the oil changed. Additionally, the vehicle suddenly started to jerk and misfire, the check engine light came on. I was within a block of my home and was able to return home. This would have been extremely dangerous in traffic. I have changed the coils and plugs, but it continues to hesitate and run unevenly, just like so many other reports.

I am not a mechanic, but I know that my engine consumes 5-8 quarts of oil every 3000 miles. In addition to the engine oil consumption problem, I have noticed a severe burning smell in my car cabin, especially on takeoff, but it lingers. Unfortunately, I have to breathe this in every time I drive my car, and it is making my headaches much worse. I have taken my car to a private mechanic's shop, and the mechanic noticed the problem during two previous oil changes. I have not yet taken my car to the police or insurance company. There have been no warning messages or lights illuminated on the dashboard.

I purchased a 2017 Hyundai Tucson with a 1.6L Turbo GDI engine. After just one month, the engine developed bearing damage. It seems that this problem is common with this type of engine. Does Hyundai have a recall for this engine model?

While driving home from work, my engine all of sudden started making a loud knocking noise sounded like you were going up a roller coaster. The oil light started flickering and then the engine light came on. I honestly didn't know if I was going to make it home due to the noise and the car was shaking while driving. I had to have it towed to the dealership. The dealership confirmed the engine needs replaced. I can't even get a new engine anywhere because no one can order one or find one in stock new. I feel it is a safety issue because the engine could have failed on the highway while driving putting myself and others at risk of an accident or maybe even death.

While driving home from a doctors appointment my engine all of sudden started making a loud knocking noise, the oil light flickered on and off and the check engine light came on. I honestly wasn't sure if I would make it home with the loud noise the engine was making and the car was starting to shake while driving. I did have it towed to the dealership (I have 2 2017 Tucsons both currently at the dealership with blown engines under 60000 miles) and they confirmed the engine needed replaced. I feel this is a safety concern because the engine could have failed while driving putting myself and others at risk of an accident or maybe even death.

As I was driving my 2017 Hyundai Tuscan to work, my vehicle would not accelerate when I pressed the accelerator. The engine would not function properly leaving me in the middle of moving traffic. I was able to pull off the main road to a safe place. My insurance company (Geico) sent an assessor out 7/22/24 who noted a blown engine due to a prematurely worn connecting rod bearing for which there is a noted recall on this particular vehicle model.

Constantly have to get oil changes. Initially when I would be due for another oil change, the mechanic mentions there is no oil. I started to come sooner than the due date and mileage and same issue. Oil is burning quickly. Car is stuttering and jerky on acceleration, but my car is not apart of that recall. The car headlights continues to change on it on and filters through the light settings on it’s on at random times.

My car has been having engine problems causing it to stall while driving. It won’t go past 20miles per hour even if I press on the gas FULLY. This has been happening on and off for a couple of months now. It also burns thru my oil change in less than a week. I took my Hyundai into the dealer multiple times because of the way it drove since 2019 and they always sent me away saying that it was normal. But this car has been a constant stress in my life. Driving it has felt dangerous. Something is definitely WRONG with it and I’m not sure why this recall on the engine now powering up hasn’t hit yet. Death trap of a car.

Hello, I have a serious problem with my Hyundai Tucson 2017 which is excessively burning oil. An oil change has been done on December 26 2023 (125.600) and a service was due 3 month later (3.000 miles) to perform an oil change but when I went for the oil change on March 26, 2024 at Jiffy Lube, they noticed that there was no oil in the engine and no leaks and suspected that the vehicle might burn oil and the performed a full synthetic oil change (service due after 7500 miles) and after 2800 miles on May 17, 2024 when I checked the oil level, I couldn't see any mark on the stick. I brought them the car and they checked if there was any leak then they filled up the engine. I was monitoring and on June 15, 2024 after 780 miles the level was below the minimum level. I bought a Mobil 1 full synthetic motor oil 5W-30 and filled up the engine up to the maximum level mark on the stick. 2 weeks later, on June 28 I noticed that the oil level was close to the minimum level again. I booked an appointment at Hyundai dealership at Gaithersburg, MD and they refused to check the vehicle without a payment. I paid for the diagnosis and 2 day after they ended up saying that the vehicle is burning 1 quart every 2660 miles (which is below what we observed) and they asked me to pay $1235 for a combustion chamber cleaning to which they added it might not work. I am submitting this request for you to solve this safety problem on my car. Thank you

There are two issues. Acceleration failure while driving and excessive oil leaks that require continually adding oil to the engine. Yes, it is available for inspection on request. The acceleration failure is a safety risk and does put others in danger when I cannot accelerate when needed. For example, entering a freeway. The car has stalled and cut out going only 15 mph. This never happened while stopped, just as I was accelerating from a stopped position. I cannot get on roads where the speed limit is above 50 mph because the car will not go over 50 mph. The manufacturer has inspected these problems. Charged me to correct them, and a month later the problems returned. NO warning lights, or anything, at any time.

On [XXX] my 2017 Hyundai Tucson check engine light came on on [XXX] in Atlanta. Just moments afterward my car began to reduce its speed. It was not driving nearly like it should. My exit was approximately 4 miles from when the check engine light came on. At my exit car started vibrating, I did not think I was going to make it through the light. Even though my car was not driving right and the check engine light being on I did not want to stop and be stuck on the side of the road. I was headed to my daughters house about 2 and half miles off the interstate. With my emergency flashers on I made to her subdivision. As I proceeded up the hill it would not go, it started going in reverse. Needless to say I was starting to panic. My son in law was the first car to come, he told me to turn the engine off and restart. That didnt help. So he got in my car and put in Neutral. We were a few yards from their house.

Tucson currently has 98,000 miles on the engine and is burning extreme amounts of oil. Oil consumption issues became known as early as 75,000. Per 1,000 miles of driving, the Hyundai dealership notes the car is losing over 2 quarts of oil. I have been having to return to the dealership every 1,000 miles to be monitored. I have already had to pay replace my catalytic converter, which I believe was a result of the excess rate of oil burn from the engine. I have also had to pay to replace the oil gaskets in the oil pan even though there was no noticeable sign that the engine was leaking oil. I am now being told I am going to need to have an engine head cleaning repair that will take several days. Once that is complete, I will have to undergo continued oil consumption testing to determine the results. They are requesting I produce my service records or Hyundai will not cover the repairs. Almost all of the service on this vehicle was done at the dealership and I was never notified of any issue with oil consumption. A separate mechanic, while performing a quote, did an oil change and noted the car was completely out of oil. This engine is well known for its oil consumption issues and Hyundai does not seem to want to take responsibility for their defective engine.

Engine blew up before oil change was required and car is under 100,000 miles Engine presumably failed on the way home from work, was making a sound. Parked the car, got in the next morning to take it to the repair shop. Check engine light came on during transit. They called and said there was a rod bearing failure and advised that I have it towed to Hyundai for possible warranty work. Car will be repaired in 4-6 weeks. Nalley Hyundai in Lithonia Georgia is not able to provide a loaner car as there are 11 people on the waiting list before me. I have 2 kids and a full-time job. I now have no car for 2 months.

Engine has been burning through oil fast, requiring me to add oil every couple of weeks. 2 difference service places have told me this and also told me to contact Hyundai to file a complaint, as many other 2017 Hyundai Tucsons have recalls out for the same reason. This could cause an engine to fail if oil burns all the way out without my knowledge - safety hazard for me and others on the road. Car also sputters and struggles to accelerate at times, which has been an issue since getting the car in 2020. Please consider recalling to fix said issues.

Have been driving the vehicle for nearly a year but while driving my motor blew exhausting blue all black smoke and then when I turn the car off the car was completely dead when I was getting it towed it could not be told because both of the front wheels had locked and no matter if I put the vehicle in neutral the car will not move come to find out that the bearing ride has shot a hole through the motor block. Took the vehicle to two different Hyundai dealership was told the same thing that no one would take the vehicle or trade it in for an the value for another vehicle that I was stuck with the vehicle and had to pay for the damages which was about 12 Grand also vehicle has been down in my driveway for the last year now cuz Hyundai refused to pay it without $190 diagnostic fee again on top of 12 Grand to replace my motor and the vehicle is not even worth all that money when I don't have much left to pay on it even though I only had the vehicle for only 2 years now but only driven it for only one. Lastly I've also read where there was a recall on these vehicles for the the baron rod and the engine malfunction as well as a new system being put into this these vehicles I was not aware of these recalls because it purchase of this vehicle was right when the recall window had closed and I ended up having a problem now they won't do anything about it can someone please do something about this vehicle.

Had had the vehicle approximately four months (purchased at Irwin Dealership in Laconia, NH) when the vehicle would not start. It was rendered non-functional. It was “repaired” in February 2023. When picked up in Feb after Irwin dealership in Laconia, NH had had it for almost 3 wks, they told me it had carbon buildup. It had only been driven about 4,000 miles since it had been purchased on [XXX], 2022. They changed the oil (oil changes are recommended every 5,000 miles). It died again on [XXX], 2023; again it had been driven less than 4,000 miles and was not yet due for an oil change. It has been there since. They (Irwin) wanted service records, I told them all I had from prior to purchase was the carfax, and that they had performed the only service because I hadn't driven it long enough to have even had a second oil change. When Irwin submitted documents to Hyundai, they indicated the issues with the car were due to neglect and poor maintenance. Hyundai refused to replace the engine citing that I had failed to provide service records. The car remains at the dealership, despite payments being made on a vehicle that can not be used.

I religiously come into a auto repair shop for oil changes. Well before my next scheduled change, my engine started to make thumping noises. I filled up the engine with oil before taking it in to the auto body shop. The shop informed me that the engine needs to be replaced. They also informed me that this seems to be a recurring issue with Hyundai's and that a lot of owners are experiencing high oil needs for their engines. Neither my check oil light or check engine light notified me that there was low oil before the damage occured on my engine. I have filed a report with Hyundai as well and am still waiting to hear back from them.

The engine sustained a crack and oil was leaking out of a cylinder. Initially thought to have been an oil problem since the check oil light would come on. Vehicle was taken to a dealer where they determined it was a bad cylinder. They did not have the correct tools to get into the block so they kept the vehicle for over a month. They returned the vehicle back and shortly after the issue started to happen again. The engine was knocking really loud and cannot accelerate over 40 miles an hour. We took it back to the dealer where they determined that it was a faulty engine and had requested all of the oil change and maintenance records. This vehicle had been taken back to the dealership on multiple occasions for routine maintenance. Talking to the maintenance technicians they could not find any record of us taking the vehicle there mentioning that the dealership had changed hands. We had records from oil changes at one other location but the dealership deemed negligence for the engine failure. This is about a three-year-old case and car was ay 109,00 miles

After owning my vehicle for 4 years, it has started burning oil. Burning about 2 quarts every 14 days. Was directed by dealership to perform oil consumption test every 1000 miles, which is all logged through the dealership and was sent on my way. The problem is now affecting my spark plugs and could packs. After all we're replaced/changed, when plugs are removed, they are covered in oil and are fried! Hyundai has not addressed the issue, but many consumers have this same problem.

I purchased my vehicle on Feb 17th and 2 weeks later the engine shut down on me and wouldnt restart. My mechanic said that i need a new engine.

There's a known leak with oil in the engine, this was brought to the dealers attention and they said it was a known issue however no fixes were avaliable. While driving on the highway without warning I lost accelerator access. The car wouldn't go. The engine started knocking and would not propel forward. It was advised after diagnostics were done that two of my cylinders lost compression and therefore the engine was blown. They said this is a highly known issue with Hyundai Tucson 1.6T engines. I've lost money, time and work behind this ordeal.

We purchased a 2017 Hyundai Tuscon in April 2023 with 79 k miles. Realized after a short time that it was consuming too much oil. Started doing some research and found that this has been a problem for many Hyundai/Kia engines. We were checking the oil often and topping it off as needed plus, oil changes at 3000 miles. There were no check engine lights on and no leaks of fluids on the ground, no loss of power. Fast forward to March 2024. Driving down the interstate on a trip the engine just shuts off. Luckily my daughter was able to make it to the shoulder without getting hit by another car. The vehicle would not restart. I started looking for someone to tow the vehicle a State Trooper stopped to assist her and her passengers. Vehicle was towed. Mechanic charged the battery, checked the terminals, tested the alternator, and the belt. All were good. No idea why it just shut off. After charging battery for an hour, she was able to limp the Tuscon to the nearest dealership. The vehicle started losing power going uphill and regained speed on the flat areas on the way to dealership. The Hyundai dealer diagnosed the issue as leaking valve seal, oil soaked ignition coil causing the misfire which then started to plug up catalytic converter and fouling the spark plugs. I told the service person I will be contacting Hyundai and she said that the diagnosis did not qualify for the engine replacement and the estimate to repair was $5600. While we were there we checked into trading in. We paid $16,000 in April 2023 with 79k miles. March of 2024 Kelly Blue Book says it’s worth only $8300 (93k mileage) and they offered $4000 trade. Loan balance is $14,000. This incident could have caused my daughter and her passengers (one was an infant) to get into a horrific accident on the Interstate with traffic driving 70 mph. Now we are dealing with this economic hardship. My research shows many of the engines of various models of Hyundai and Kia’s are failing. No current recalls!

On March 9, 2024, I was driving when suddenly a warning light sounded from the dashboard that the engine "overheated" and there's a loss of power. I was very scared driving for the first time in my life. Before I pulled over to a safe place, a driver nearest to my car pulled his window down and shouted that my car was smoking. I was terrified. This incident triggered my husband's mental health conditions. I called my niece who is a registered nurse to help us. I called my car insurance for towing to the next dealership that I called about what happened. After I rented a car, I went to the dealership. However, the Service Department was closed after 4:00 pm. The next day (Monday), I received text messages that they're working on my car and the only communication was "text messages." I was stunned! The next message was transmission problem, the cost of repairing it, and authorization to fix at $1,581.40. Because my rental car was not cheap and needed a car to doctors and other appointments made on that week, I agreed to proceed. After I signed the authorization from text messages, I got a call from a service advisor to acknowledge the cost of the repair. I asked about the engine and he said it's okay. By Wednesday afternoon, I received a call that my car was done. Before this incident (2 weeks?), I called the same dealership when it's time for an oil change, but was told at 72,000 miles. Then I received a call that my car needs a transmission check up for $1,200 or more, but I told him I'll wait for the next oil change. Last year, I reported to other dealership that my engine light was on, but was told to go to Autozone. I didn't do it because the light didn't appear again. My car has been maintained by local dealership since I bought it in 2016. One dealership would not pick up my calls after fixing the side door locked from inside/outside. As this is not a traffic related incident, my car insurance doesn't want to be involved.

2017 tuscon with less than 100k miles, started making knocking sounds and unable to accerlate. The engine light came on. I go to the dealership, without any inspections he says it's a rod bearings. The 1.6T engine was retired because of the issues and they are still selling these faulty vehicles! I've only had the vehicle for 2 yrs.

Car had smoke engine overheating this is the 3rd engine I got sick from the smoke I don’t feel safe in that car

My 2017 hyundia Tucson is using a minimum of 1 quart per 1000 miles . Always serviced by the dealer . There is no smoke , no leaks and always serviced at the dealer . Started the car in the morning and the engine was making lifter noise . I checked the oil and nothing registered on the dipstick.

The vehicle stalled in the middle of an intersection. No warning lights were illuminated, no dashboard indicators were illuminated prior to and or during the time of the vehicle stalling in a 3 lane intersection. The vehicle was towed to a local mechanic. Upon inspection the mechanic stated the engine appeared to have significant rod wear and tear not indicative of the year the car was built. He stated this make and model were under a recall with Hyundai and he would not complete any repairs until Hyundai was able to review in the event the car was under recall. I called the manufacturer and the individual said the vin was not under recall, there was nothing they could do. I explained the safety concerns at that time and was advised to have the vehicle towed to a Hyundai dealership for further review by Hyundai due to meeting all criteria of the recall. The hyundai dealership stated the vin number was not under the recall and it would take 6 to 8 weeks to inspect the engine.

Campaign 209. Hyundai is refusing to provide assistance under recall campaign 209 for our VIN. Our vehicle has premature rod bearing failure causing engine failure. Rod knock noise. My wife drives the 2017 Hyundai Tucson. This year in June 2023 our vehicle check engine light came on for knock sensor. Soon after the vehicle started having acceleration issues, then the oil pressure warning light would come on and off. The vehicle oil level was checked, and we learned the vehicle oil level was low. The vehicle was through burning oil. The vehicle had burned through a quart of oil with no explanation. Our VIN # for our vehicle indicates there is an active recall Campaign #209 for Rod bearing issues with our specific model and VIN. Our specific vehicle and VIN when entered into Hyundai’s website reflects active recall. We took the vehicle into Red Mccombs Hyundai Northwest to have our vehicle evaluated. Red Mccombs submitted a PA to Hyundai for engine replacement. They denied coverage stalling vehicle is no longer under warranty but made no mention of active recall. We got Hyundai Consumer Affairs involved and had same result with denial stalling vehicle is no longer under warranty. We then brought up recall #209 explaining we are having all the same issues they list on their website for this active recall. Dealer refused to look at rod bearings stalling we would have to pay for them to inspect rod bearings. Hyundai consumer affairs had us take it to another Hyundai service dept. for a second opinion. As Hyundai consumer affairs requested, we drove vehicle to principle Hyundai of boerne. While driving my vehicle from Red Mcccombs Hyundai Northwest to Principle Hyundai of Boerne it failed on the highway. The vehicle was making a loud knocking noise and would not accelerate past 50 mph. Check engine light was on again. We managed to bring the vehicle into Principle Hyundai of Boerne and they evaluated the vehicle. The service advisor immediately agreed to hearing the knocking noise. After evaluating the vehicle, the te

Engine knock, called multiple dealers… told it sounds like connected bearing engine issue, and it’s due to blow, try to make it here, if light comes on for engine.. stop do not touch car it will blow. Drove slowly to swap for a rental on highway as told. Engine blew as engine light flashed, car got louder, smoke came out of car, and a piece from engine blew underneath to behind my car on highway. VERY TRAUMATIC.

After I stop at a stop sign and start to go my car stalls in the intersection. I have been to dealership multiple times and they tell me different things last time they refused to address the problem and told me to replace the turbo which I did and still having issues. I am scared to drive my car

Four days while driving on streets and freeways in Oklahoma City My 2017 Hyundai Tucson turned off and stalled. Lots of lights came on. Luckily I was able to get out of traffic without getting rear ended. I took the suv to local Hyundai dealer and they couldn’t find the problem. The second time I took it to the dealer they replaced sensor crankshaft to clear lights that were coming on. Paid $209.27 for multi point inspection and paid $412.62 for second repair. I’m frustrated because I was without transportation for 4 days. Dealerships did not offer a car for me to drive.

On july 2023 i have talk to hyundai about engine stall in traffic n oil burning. i got an oil change two week my engine light n oil light is on before my warranty up but couldnt get my tucson in because no available appointment. Im in traffic at the light it turn green i press gas i didnt go nowhere cause my tucson was stalling i had to quickly put on my emergency light cause i almost got rearend by a car. it finally took off i pull of the road scared out my mind and my grandkids was in the car n crying cause they are scared. As of February 12,2023 issue is still happening 8 months nothing is still been done. Something need to be done asap

Bought this one (~80K miles) ~Oct/Nov 2022 from a local dealer as a used car (I was the 2nd owner). The oil light was on when I drove it ~1500 miles. I was surprised and went to shop to do my first oil change. I thought probably that the last oil change they just did not top it up. Unfortunately, after it, I noticed that the oil consumption was much quicker than it's supposed to be and required me for oil change more frequently. On 10Feb24 (it had ~97K miles), the car started to vibrate when I started the car. I noticed a "green/blue" fume came out when I stopped/started from a traffic light. On 12Feb24 morning, I drove it to a local dealer, the ~3 miles ride became a horrible experience in my life. The car is shaking and making a terrible noise, the "green/blue" fume busted out, felt no power and could barely maintain ~30MPH speed. It's like you were driving something that going to be exploded. You pictured it. It finally reached the dealer site and I felt the car has delivered its last breath. Thanks GOD that nobody got hurt. Dealer took a look and told me that it would cost $4000 to fix it. I googled this problem and found that many people experienced the similar problem (excessive oil consumption/engine failure). Therefore, I strongly urge that Hyundai and NHTSA take proper measurement to identify the cause and prevent future disaster it may have. For Hyundai, I strongly urge you to read all the complaints on this type of vehicle (2017 Tucson AWD) through NHTSA platform. It's easy to realize that, as of 13Feb24, there are 795 complaints about this type of car, and 379 of them are linked to engine problem. It has a statical significancy and we hold you accountable . For me, I will never buy Hyundai again, and no more "Tucson garlic" dish from my menu because of "Tucson".

Unknown the car just start malfunctioning

The contact's family friend owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while the family friend was driving at an undisclosed speed, the engine made an abnormally loud knocking sound. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where it was diagnosed with connecting rod bearing wear and it was determined that the engine needed to be replaced. The dealer denied the engine replacement due to a lack of service records. The vehicle was then towed to Hyundai of 110 (2100 Broadhollow Rd, Farmingdale, NY 11735), where it was also diagnosed with connecting rod bearing wear and it was determined that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired and remained at Hyundai of 110. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was opened. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V727000 (Engine); however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The failure mileage was approximately 45,000.

Mileage: 45,000

UNKNOWN While driving, the check engine light came on and the car started idling rough. When accelerating the car would shake tremendously, feeling like it would die right there in the middle of the road. When I stopped at where I was going, I checked the oil and there was no oil in the engine. I added oil but it did not help the situation. I made an appointment with the dealership in Waco, Texas and when I showed up they stated they no longer had room for me and to make another appointment. They also stated I didn’t have a warranty as I am not the original owner even though I purchased the extended warranty and I have not passed the mileage or date. This is unacceptable as I do not feel safe driving my car and they did not honor the appointment I made.

The dealership that we bought the car from has maintained it since new,we have spent lots of money on maintenance and repairs there.we have been complaining about oil consumption between scheduled changes and now the engine started knocking,we are afraid to drive it.we are going to see if the dealer will honor the extended warranty we paid for when we bought it

Car has 125,000 mi on it. This will be the 3rd catalytic converter in 2 years. Second one was March of 2022. I have excessive oil consumption (1QT every other week). Which I believe causes the exhaust system to clog. It’s an engine flaw design I believe. The issues isn’t the converter but the oil consumption contributing to the clogging. The vehicle actually had complete engine failure while I was driving on the interstate Dec 23, 2023 driving at 70 miles an hour! It was caused by the clogged converter! I could have died! Thank you.

I was driving at 10 mph speeding up and the engine went out. There was oil in the engine so it wasn’t from lack of maintenance and I just bought the vehicle a month and a half prior to the incident.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while driving approximately 5 MPH, the vehicle was running rough and would not accelerate as needed. The contact also stated while driving 45 MPH, the vehicle stalled, was shaking, and made an abnormally loud sound while depressing the accelerator pedal. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer due to appointment availability, but another dealer suggested calling the NHTSA Hotline to check for recalls associated with VIN. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 77,000.

NHTSA Recall No. / MFR Recall No. : 21V-727 / 209 Recall Subject : Engine Damage May Cause Stall or Fire I am the second owner of this vehicle, purchased Jan 2021. I have not received any letter, calls, notifications from the Hyundai dealer where I purchased regarding any sort of recall for over the last 2 years. It was not until I went to get an oil change and I was told there was ZERO oil in my vehicle. The car will not hold oil, does not leak onto the ground, makes a knocking sound and not once has the oil light came on to alert me. This was my very first car purchase and to have a problem such as this is very frustrating. Not to mention that I have had zero notifications about this recall regarding this issue for my car. It was not until I decided to research on your site if there were recalls did I find there were not only one but 3, and this was one. I call the dealership, and they inform me that this is not a recall and I need to pay $175.00 for a diagnostic fee and this is an ongoing issue with these vehicles. Now I know I will probably receive an automated response in return and nothing will come of this. As of yesterday January 9/2024 my car had zero oil in the engine, has two codes, a solid check engine light on (still no oil light notification) and the mechanic indicated this was an internal issue and would not repair my vehicle. Someone please help.

The vehicle drove fine on Christmas Eve. Then Christmas Day while leaving from a visit the car was in then randomly shut off in the middle. Checked the inside. No issues. Made it home and tried to go back out, the car crunk up and after a few seconds cut off. Tried it again and it started knocking. Checked everything again. Tried to crank the car up after about 30 seconds the car got extremely loud and shut off again. A mechanic came to check the car and said it was the engine/motor. Then another mechanic at the shop mentioned that it appears to be similar to the issues in recall 209. Along with multiple other possibilities since Hyundai has been having issues with engines for years.

Engine check light came on on 1/4/24 took it to dealership they ran a quick check and they said it had multiple misfires. The car has a lot of carbon buildup and they recommend a 24 hour cleaning which will cost me over $700.00. The car stalls and starts shaking as I speed up. I don't feel that a care with less than 70,000 miles should have this problem. Mine also has now been using up the oil very quickly.

My engine began making a loud knocking sound. When I brought the car in, I was told the rod bearings were warped, that the sound I was hearing was a rod hitting the engine, and that the engine would need to be replaced immediately or it would "seize up" at any moment. No warning light came on. There is a recall out for this issue for the same make, model, and year, but I was told my VIN did not qualify under the recall. I opened a case with the national office to have my car included under the recall as it is the same issue with the same make, model, and year, and was denied. I had to spend several thousand dollars on a rental car and purchase a new vehicle. The issue with the Hyundai has still not been addressed or remedied. When I went back to the dealership for the paperwork for my records, I was told no paperwork was completed when they diagnosed the issue.

Chronic over consumption of oil. You could change the oil and a day later the oil is completely black and burnt. Roughly lost a .5-1quart of oil a week doing minimal commuting. Eventually the wear from oil consumption left us with a cylinder loss and in need of engine replacement. The vehicle only has 65k miles. Clearly this is a serious problem with these cars. There is an active recall for this problem but our VIN doesn’t list. This is also the problem with many others who I have seen across all forums quora, Reddit, etc. We are sold Lemons and then footed with the cost to replace when this problem is very much known. It’s wrong on every level.

I was driving the car home and the check engine light came on , the oil light came on and the battery light. The car shut off and I coasted off to the side of the road and proceeded to get the car towed home. I then called larson hyundai in olympia wa. The first service advisor I spoke with after I told her what happened told me the car had a recall that was open for the engine and to bring it in on Nov 15 The car sat for 2 months waiting for the appointment. I finally dropped the car off at the dealership on Nov. 15 and two weeks later I get a call from the service department saying that it won't be covered. This is completely unacceptable And the car needs to be fixed Also the service advisor who is currently working with the car is the rudest employee ever. Today 12/22 she called and informed they want 10,000 for the engine to be replaced I was shocked and paused for a second. All I hear is her saying in a snobby voice he hung up and she immediately hung up the phone. Please help me with this

I was driving down the road and my “check engine” light came on and started blinking. Immediately afterwards, I noticed that my car acted like it would not accelerate. When I came to a stoplight, it was very sluggish to accelerate. I was right near an O’Reilly’s so I pulled in and had them use the code checker. It showed a P1326 code and I was advised not to drive the vehicle. I had my car towed to the dealership. The dealership called me the next day and advised me that the engine would need to be replaced, but the cost would be covered by an extended warranty. However-they told me it would be 2 months before I would get the car back!! They are not offering a loaner car nor offering to pay for a rental car! There is less than 65000 miles on my car! This is an extreme hardship on me. I work 25 miles away and cannot afford a rental vehicle for 2 months!

My engine began to leak and burned oil to a point where it needed oil changes much frequently than normal. Within 2 months of being made aware of the leak, I began to hear knocking noises. Once I return again to the dealership I was made aware now I needed a new engine. How is it that I've had my vehicle serviced only at a Hyundai Motor dealership and once my warranty is out, I now need an engine? What makes matters worse, there is a current recall on my vehicle year and make for the engine but I was told that my engine doesn't fall under this recall. I beg to differ! I am frustrated that I have yet another Hyundai that has failed me and I am stuck without a vehicle.

Engine failure due to rod bearing. Unknown. Yes. Inspected by mechanics. No there were no warning lights. Vehicle started knocking and then oil light flashed every few minutes after the knocking. No check engine lights.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while driving 65 MPH and depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle failed to respond and stalled. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact was able to veer to the side of the road and the vehicle failed to restart. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the engine was blown, and the contact was informed that the failure was related to NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V727000 (Engine). The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 119,000.

Mileage: 119,000

I bought the car with 83,000 miles 9 months ago. It had engine failure at 104,000. From the beginning the car stalled when trying to accelerate almost got hit several times. The car had major oil consumption issues with no leak. The car died without any warning lights almost causing an accident. I rolled into oil change place. Car was low on oil. It had engine failure.

Appears to be an issue with the Dual Clutch Transmission. Makes the suv jolt after starting, waiting in traffic/red light and/or randomly driving around. Speed is not a determine factor in causing this “jolt”, for it happens at any rate of speed. Fear is the suv will randomly just stall and/or completely give out while driving, especially on the highway!

A knocking noise from the engine that increases in frequency as the engine rpm increases. Reduced power and/or hesitation and vibration. Illumination of the “check engine” light in the instrument cluster. Illumination of the “engine oil pressure” warning lamp.

Body - exterior. Door handles stop working and cannot open the doors. Engine - massive oil consumption issue. Having to put in roughly 10 QUARTS of oil in between oil changes, but low oil warning light inside of the cluster also never comes on to let you know if the oil is low.

Hyundai completed the recall in their system after inspection when the recall was not addressed. Months later I am experiencing check engine light and same symptoms from recall, and hyundai is booked out two months and telling me that the recall does not exist. Code reads severely damaged rod bearings.

Vehicle doesn't want to accelerate when it is suppose to. Press on the gas pedal and it goes to the floor and when it does decide to accelerate it erratic. VERY scary and unsafe. Has almost gotten my daughter and I in an accident.

Without any notice the engine completely seized up and now I'm unable to even get a new engine because the engine is discontinued even though federal law mandates parts are to be available for 10 years.

Mileage: 180,114

The car does not accelerate from a stopped position and when driving it does not shift or allow acceleration. This is especially an issue on hills or when trying to increase speed on the highway.

Cracked cylinder wall in engine, after major oil consumption issues, complaints filed with dealership, corporate offices, did oil consumption tests and further hyundai corporate recommended an engine clean out which helped for a while however last year they had to replace my catalytic converter because it was "clogged", but still maintain that it didn't have to do with the oil consumption issue. No warning lights came on engine just wouldnt accelerate properly when pulling out in traffic, made noises and would not perform as it should. I have all service records pertaining to this vehicle since we have owned it. Dealership is wanting us to pay 8k for repairs because hyundai says its not covered under the recall .

When I'm stopped at a light and go to push on the gas, the vehicle doesn't move, then all of a sudden it just takes off. Next the exterior driver side door handle doesn't open I have to pull on it a few times then it opens, there's like a delay. There are tones of complaints online about this, it's like the 2017 model's were just looked over when it came to SAFETY. My car only has 70K. Thank you.

I am having to add oil on a weekly bases. My vehicle makes sudden jerks and acts as it may shut off even while driving. constantly.

Engine light came on and then went off twice so I checked the dipstick and there was no oil on it. So went to Express Oil Change and they ended up performing oil change- but there was none in it. Car could have stalled. Yes. I have to keep going to having oil added to keep the car running. There isn’t a leak anywhere, yet the oil level keeps dropping. I took to a Hyundai dealership and they told me they would perform oil consumption test but then called the next day (after I left my car there) and said they would not do it because I am the second owner. No. Yes. Engine light came on but when back off two times within the same hour which prompted me to check the oil.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while driving at highway speeds, an abnormal knocking sound was coming from the vehicle with the vehicle hesitating upon depression of the accelerator pedal. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where a code reader determined there was a defect in engine cylinder #2. The contact had the coil pack and spark plugs replaced. Several weeks later, the failure returned, and the vehicle was taken to a second independent mechanic. The mechanic determined that the engine bolts on the manifold and the turbo charger had blown. The contact was informed that a further diagnostic test was needed to determine the extent of the damage to the engine. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was referred to a local dealer. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where the mechanic confirmed the failure and informed the contact that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 82,000.

Since I was notified of this recall on November 16, 2021, I have diligently followed the instructions provided, and my vehicle has been taken to a Hyundai service center for inspection and necessary repairs. However, I am deeply disappointed and concerned that despite the recall and subsequent corrective actions, my vehicle has continued to experience persistent issues related to the engine. I have experienced several engine problems, including repeated transmission replacements (twice) and dual-clutch replacements (three times), which have had a significant impact on the overall performance and safety of my vehicle. The frequency of these issues and the potential consequences, including engine stalling and increased risk of accidents, are alarming. I understand that Hyundai has taken measures to address the recall issue, but it appears that the corrective actions have not resolved the problem in my vehicle. Given the seriousness of the engine-related concerns outlined in the recall, I strongly believe that my vehicle's issues should be thoroughly investigated, and the necessary steps should be taken to ensure my safety and reliability.

THE CAR STARTED TO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH ACCELERATION DO NOT ACCELERATE MORE THAN 60 miles per hour and turned on the signal the engine and to get to 60 mph it goes slow little by little without strength since it only reaches 2000 rpm it does not go higher than there. In addition, all the lights on the blackboard came on, which means that I can't tell if there is something wrong with the car or not because everything is on. The proximity sensors don't work, and I get the code for engine is P1326 and the anti-Lock Brake System the computer show the code C1211-02, C1207-02, C1210-02, C1208-02 Y C1209-01.I took it to the Hyundai agency in Miami Lake where I bought it and where they told me that the car had 10 years or 100,000 miles of warranty and when I arrived the person who received me without passing the car to diagnosis or anything told me that repair costs you $700,00 and tells me that to my warranty covers the engine, the engine has to be completely damaged; I explained to her the engine was in bad shape that it was better to do the repair than to change an entire engine if it was still being used, but she was still in the same negative until she left. I need to make this report because I didn't have any help from the Hyundai that sold me the car and which is still under a factory warranty. I consider this a violation and abuse of consumer rights by deceiving the American people with a guarantee that they then do not want to fulfill

I had my engine replaced in match 2023 due to stalled vehicle. After several trips to hyundai. Now just 6 months later and as off present my check engine light is back on . I took my car in to get the immobilizer installed from another recall. The dealership is giving me run around. I am confused why if they replaced my engine with a new one why do I have the check engine on again just some time later. I keep all maintenance up on my vehicle. Additionally now my heat is not blowing hot it's blowing cool and consuming large sum of anti freeze. I have yet another appointment with dealership and have to leave my truck they don't have any loamers available so I have to figure out how to get to work and my son to school on my own all while paying car note for a vehicle I've really lost trust in. Unfortunately because of the thefts and recalls my truck is more debt than value at this point

Near miss accidents due to engine failing as a way KT of rapid oil consumption. Occurred twice causing near miss accidents at high speeds on expressway. Vehicle is currently undergoing oil consumption tests with dealer

The 2017 Hyundai Tucson is unsafe to drive. Purchased the vehicle with 62000 miles and have had issues with the vehicle since shortly after purchase. Vehicle consumes oil at a rapid pace - in between 3000 mile oil changes additional oil is needing to be added within 600 miles, while driving the vehicle on the freeway at 70 miles an hour vehicle stalls and goes into limp mode - huge safety issue. Vehicle has been at Hyundai three times now - first time Hyundai covered all of the diagnostics and repairs, mainly electrical for the engine. Second time vehicle was stalling again and diagnosis was catalytic converter needed to be replaced, caused due to manufacturing error that is causing oil consumption - Hyundai would not cover, out of pocket cost $3600. A month later vehicle stalled and was going into limp mode again, check engine light on and flashing. Took to Hyundai again, now the diagnosis is engine needs to be replaced. Hyundai is denying replacement coverage, these engine failures are due to many manufacturing errors on the engine, I have a case open with Hyundai however they are highly unresponsive, dishonest, and continue to deny coverage for an engine replacement due to me being the second vehicle owner - the vehicle only has 83000 miles on it at this time and should be considered as a warranty coverage due to manufacturing errors in this engine and the low mileage along with the regular maintenance always maintained on the vehicle. Hyundai is also being dishonest about costs for an engine replacement, I have asked for quotes multiple times and have been unable to get any assistance or answers from Hyundai. Hyundai and any dealership getting these vehicles as trade ins are selling unsafe and defective vehicles, these defective engines need to be covered by Hyundai to provide safe roadways for all.

Car engine needs to be replaced. As soon as it hit 100k miles the turbo super charge something is faulty or defected. Smoke comes out the back pipe, car always jerked but now it’s not accelerating at all. We kept up with maintenance care such as oil changes. Hyundai will not cover because it’s over the 100k warranty

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while starting and while driving the vehicle, there was an abnormal knocking sound coming from the vehicle. The check engine warning light was flashing. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed that the spark plugs were dead, and the mechanic turned off the check engine warning light. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The contact took possession of the vehicle, but after driving for approximately 90 miles, the check engine warning light started flashing. The contact stated that the engine continued knocking. The vehicle was taken back to the local dealer, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 101,000.

Mileage: 101,000

Purchased the 2017 Hyundai Tucson used (2nd owner) with 62000 miles, before the vehicle was driven 10000 miles the vehicle stalled on the freeway, when it started back up wouldn’t go over 40 miles -took to the nearest dealership where they replaced the entire electrical mainframe for the engine, covered by Hyundai. Vehicle stalled again and check engine light came on around 81000 miles, took to the dealership again and they diagnosed as catalytic converter needed to be replaced - out of pocket expense. A month later check engine light on again, back at the Hyundai dealership and diagnosed as engine failure. Hyundai is trying not to cover the engine, currently have an active case with Hyundai due to engine manufacturing errors/problems and problems with oil consumption - we were supposed to start the oil consumption test right around when the engine failed too.

Vehicle stalled on highway without any warning. It was towed to the local dealership. After inspection, determined there was no oil even though the car has been maintained on a regular basis with oil changes. Dealer does not want to replace engine but instead do another oil consumption test which will put us at risk for another stall in the middle of the road.

We are getting a Knock sensor ERROR & Oil consumption issue. So last year I had a few recalls on my car, I took it to the dealer for then to do the updates. One of the recalls was the knock sensor. Also last year, the check engine light come on and Tires plus said it was my Knock sensor. Tires Plus cleared the code and it was fine until I had an oil change due this month I still had 3000 miles before it was due and the check engine light came on again, But this time I couldn't drive over 20 mph. I had to get it towed to a mechanic in Collegeville. His diagnostics was it was the knock sensor, He told me that Hyundai knows this is a problem but won’t fix it until it presents a problem. That being said The Collegeville Mechanic said its called a quiet recall. When I called Hyundai corp. recall center they told me that they don’t recognize quiet recalls. I had an appointment with the Springfield Hyundai Aug. 3, 2023 They would even look at it because the code was cleared but I called them first when it happened to get it towed there and they push the appointment back 3 weeks. I couldn't wait I need to get to work. I Also Recently 9/18/2023 Conicelli Hyundai and the guy told me when I got there that they have a whole lot full of Hyundai's that need Oil consumption test and would be able to look at my care un till March of 2024 That I have to take it back to where I bought it. Hyundai and Kia know of this issue but wont fix. WHY? I hope you can help me because I'm at a loss here and I have only had this car for 2 yrs I should be having this issue. I take good care if my car.

My 2017 Hyundai Tuscon excessively consumed oil. I took it into Hyundai of Kirkland. I was informed an Oil Consumption test would be completed by the Service Advisor, Chris Z. First I had my oil changed, then I was told to bring the car back in around 1000 miles. the first time I brought the car in, I was over 1000 miles. Chris informed me he would rather me bring the car back in under 1000 miles than over 1000 miles.

Makes a noise and oil was low with no leaks

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the check engine warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the vehicle was previously repaired under TSB: 21-01-073H (Engine). The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who informed the contact that the engine was misfiring. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 130,000.

Mileage: 130,000

When proceeding to move forward, the vehicle will sputter. Almost as if the vehicle is out of gas or not getting enough power to smoothly accelerate. This presents a very hazardous condition when leaving a red light or crossing an intersection. The vehicle jerks and sputters for about 2-4 seconds and then responds to the gas pedal and accelerates. Took it to the dealer and explained the problem and they said it's a known problem but there hasn't been a recommended fix and to drive the vehicle with the Turbo mode on. Even with Turbo mode on, the issue still persists.

Engine was experiencing issues as described in the existing safety recall for 2017 Hyundai Tucsons (failed knock test at Hyundai dealer). Hyundai is only covering one half of the cost as they say it is not covered by the existing recall.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while driving approximately 40 MPH, the vehicle stalled but restarted. The check engine warning light was illuminated. While having an oil change at an independent mechanic, the contact was informed that the oil level was extremely low. The mechanic suggested to the contact to check the oil level regularly. The contact added approximately a 1/2 quart per month but had to add more oil over time. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, where the spark plugs, and ignition coil were replaced. The dealer performed two oil consumption tests however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who informed her that there was no compression in the engine. The manufacturer was contacted, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 81,091.

Mileage: 81,091

Engine stalled in the middle of the highway. Could not get speed over 30mph to get out of the way of oncoming traffic even with the gas peddle pushed to the floor. Engine light flashing. Finally was able to get over to the side of the road with care bucking and jerking the whole way and stuttered to a stop.

6 Mar 2023 check engine light comes on. Took to my mechanic (they were closest to me) to put on machine to find out what the problem was; they state that it was the knock sensor and said to take it to the dealership and also let them know that it was down one quart of oil since the last oil change Jan 2023). Dealership took possession of vehicle on 8 March 23. Didn't begin repairs until 5 Apr. Then they state there was still noise from engine and found scoring on the cylinder walls and may be why it's consuming oil. Then they wanted oil change records. Finally, after providing records, "Hyundai approved replacement of engine". Legal battle ensued because they were charging for parts (lifters) that were no longer on my vehicle. Ended up having to pay for the full invoice after bullying and terroristic tactics only to have the check engine light come on again (picked up the evening of 15 Aug 23, CEL came on at 06:00 on 18 Aug 23). Eminent engine failure, limp mode and/or fire potential make me afraid to keep my vehicle but financially, I must keep it a while longer.

Was driving down the road when it started making a metallic noises then all of a sudden the car sputtered, shot flames and smoke out from underneath the car and metal debris went flying. I had to tow my car to the dealership where they still have it. They said there is a hole in the engine block where a rod was thrown. After this incident we looked more into the problem to find that other Hyundaia have had the same issue. No check engine light came on, the car didn't over heat or anything it was random.

My Hyundai Tuscon has started to burn oil in 5/22 and I brought the car to the dealer (Pugi Hyundai in Downers Grove, IL) and the dealer at the time was directed by Hyundai that the vehicle needed to wait to do an oil consumption test. In 2-23 the vehicle was taken to Wilkens Hyundai and they preformed work on it. The vehicle still continued to burn oil. Hyundai stated I could not pull the dipstick and check oil. in 6-23, the I made a rapid stop in the vehicle and the oil pressure light briefly displayed and the engine started lightly sputtering at highway speeds causing a brief loss of power. At the same time, there was a brief period of blue smoke emitting from the exhaust causing visibility issues for me and other drivers. This event put me and other drivers at risk, The vehicle has been inspected by the dealer multiple times and it has not been determined the cause of failure and I am unable to check my oil during the oil consumption tests, putting me and other drivers at risk due to a potential stalled engine or seized engine due to loss of oil pressure.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the check engine light illuminated, smoke came from underneath the hood, and a nearby driver signaled and indicated that the vehicle was on fire. The contact stated he immediately drove the vehicle to the shoulder and less than a minute later the vehicle was engulfed in flames. The contact stated that a fire and police report had been filed. The vehicle was towed to the dealer for investigation. The contact stated that he had made two attempts to get the vehicle serviced for the NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V727000 (Engine). The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, and a case was filed. The failure mileage was approximately 68,000.

Mileage: 68,000

Vehicle caught fire damaging wiring harness. engine has hesitation, AC system was damaged by fire. recall shows electrical system/engine and brakes in recall. Hyandai refused to replace citing missed oil changes. oil was changed regularly but not always at the dealer. These particular problems are exactly what the recall was for, problem is design and manufacturing the oil change issue has no effect. I want these fixed as soon as soon as possible

Excess Oil Consumption, Gear slipping, Dual Clutch, Fly Wheel, Oil found in the Turbo inlet, Clutch dust found in the transmission, Encouraged to just keep adding oil and drive the vehicle. Encouraged to drive the car when there was assumed to have contaminated transmission fluid. Encouraged to keep extra oil in my car since it was consuming oil rapidly but was still considered with in specification from Hyundai. Encouraged to add oil and drive the car after it stalled and quit working. This is a known defect with Hyundai's. Some even catch fire and also stall at high speeds while being driven. This is irresponsible, hazardous, and neglectful behavior that could have hurt or even worse killed someone.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle failed to respond upon depressing the accelerator pedal. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact was able to drive to a nearby independent mechanic, and the mechanic determined that the failure was related to NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V727000 (Engine). The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

I am not a mechanic but when I drive my vehicle, I feel like it doesn't have enough amps to move it along like it's missing something. I have pressed on the accelerator and heard a "winding noise" like the little engine that could but wants to. This is a horrible car!!! I have only had this vehicle for a month and it's a nightmare to drive. It sometimes does not accelerate, and the take-off is unbearable gives me the impression I will be rear ended one day. It even jerks and sputters, even the "rpm" feature shows high acceleration at inopportune times. I had a diagnostic performed and was told the plugs and ignition coils needed to be changed so I did that to the tune of $400 for the parts, and now not even a week later I am being told I need to change them again. How can this situation be rectified? I don't have another $400 every month in addition to the payment and insurance to replace those things every month. I want to know if you all have a fix for this to prevent all this unnecessary money from being spent. I am aware that a tune up is necessary but every month. Please tell me how this can be fixed thank you.

There is a problem with the dual clutch transmission on this 2017 Hyundai Tucson. There was a class action suit filed 2016 for transmission defects including the hesitation and shuddering issue and also grinding noises. I purchased this vehicle in 2020 with only 6600 (yes, hundred) miles not knowing of any problem or issues. 2023 in Tucson AZ when the weather started getting very warm end May, June I started noticing a bit of hesitation, sometimes like a grinding noise. This was not happening all of the time but from the reviews it happens when it gets warm. The shaking or shuddering as they call it and hesitation is very prominent and continuous now. When I had my car in for oil change in Tucson at the Hyundai dealer the service manager even drove it and said it was the dual clutch transmission. I asked about replacing the transmission then and he said that I did not have a warranty. That was another issue as I was told by Hyundai corporate before buying the vehicle that the 100,000 warranty would transfer to me. I found out in July it did not. I opened a case with Hyundai service who contacted Eastside Hyundai and I even got a call from the svc mngr who drove the vehicle. He said that Hyundai would not end up covering it all even if they said they would, they may have to have car for awhile and I would need a rental, and anything else negative about the situation. That manager never called back so caseworker called another dealer numerous times and said that they could check out my car in November. This vehicle is getting worse and possibly a danger. Hyndai take is November, take it or leave it and thats all they can do. This can cause long term damage to the engine and other parts. I need some help with this if possible before resulting in litigation. Are you able to advise on this issue and if you have even heard about. No accident has occured with this vehicle YET. I have approximately 21,000 mile on my vehicle now.

Loud knocking coming from engine.

Excessive Oil Consumption

Excessive oil consumption, vehicle hesitate and sputters when attempting to enter into traffic. Spark plugs expire early. We've been dealing with this worsening issue for 40k miles. My wife no longer feels safe driving this car. Dealership could not recreate the problem. They likely know what the problem is.

Oil drain plug fell out while driving down the highway and oil drained from engine causing internal engine damage. Low oil light came on and engine stalled within seconds. No warnings or lights were on before this happened. Stuck on the side of road for an hour with my family. Had it towed to Hyundai. Tech said drain plug was laying in the skid plate. No oil left in engine. They replaced filter and filled with oil the idled the car for some time and test drove. Tech said no power and there is internal engine damage. Service rep told me to call oil change facility where serviced last. They said cause was human error so warranty will not cover repairs. My car is still sitting at the dealership. Valvoline express care last serviced 22 days and 1336 miles before the drain plug fell out. Valvoline directed me to NHTSA investigation for this issue.

I was driving the cars lights went off it started knocking then a scraping noise I looked under car the plastic cover was half off so I took off to see what the problem was 2 pieces of broken metal were on plastic cover and oil was coming out had to tow it took to dealership in Odessa where I bought to car still had packaging in it … dealership says my car is not one of the Tucson that has a recall on it…why?

The engine started burning oil and making clanking noises. I took it to the dealership where they told me that the vehicle will need a full engine replacement. The vehicle has 76k miles and well maintained. Just out of warranty. It's unacceptable for a modern engine to have these sort of problems. And I'm not the only one. I know a lot of people have been having the same issues with this same type of vehicle.

Starting in early 2023 my engine started consuming oil. My car only has 60,000 miles on it. It's ridiculous to do an engine consumption test because this is a known issue with a class action lawsuit having already been filed. There are numerous complaints out there about this issue and yet an engine recall has not been done. Hyundai needs forced to replace these engine NOW before someone is killed with one seizing in traffic. I just did an oil change in February. I clearly don't drive my vehicle often at all. I noticed an issue at acceleration all the sudden it would bog down and not take off. Thinking I needed to change the air filter I did just that and then the check engine light came on. I made it to an O'Reilly auto parts store with a code P0011. I checked my oil to find NOTHING on the dipstick. Second time this year this has happened.

Just purchased a 2017 Tuscon less than a year ago. September 2022 with 62k miles on it and have had regular maintenance and suddenly low engine oil light came on. Also has a knocking sound. Car now only has 69k miles on it and and no mechanic will even do work on it. Says that car is known for engine issue. there is metal particals in the engine oil and oil is burning at large consumptions. Can not even drive car at this moment.

In March 2023 I took my car to the dealership for routine oil change and mentioned that I was having to put oil in the car in between oil changes. The dealership said they would send the information to Hyundai and call me with their response but they never called me. On April 14, 2023 I took the car back to dealership after it started rattling, the engine light came on and the car went into limp mode. I left it at the dealership for 2 days for service. I was told to drive it for 1,000 miles and return for oil check But I had to bring it back to dealership before 1,000 miles because it was burning oil again. I left it at the dealership for 1 day for service I was told to drive it for 1,000 miles and bring it back for oil check. On June13, 2023 I brought the car back to the dealership and after waiting for an hour the tech told me he performed the last step in the oil consumption test and that my car was fine. But the car continues to burn oil and rattles. This is a car that I take to the dealership for routine oil changes since I purchased it in 2016. The engine is under warranty and every time I go to the dealership for this issue I get a different response because they know that Hyundai is aware of this issue with this make and model and it seems like nothing is going to be done about it. I continue calling the dealership for an update from Hyundai but they tell me they haven’t gotten a response. It’s obvious nothing is going to be done about this. In the meantime I’m afraid to drive to far, I’m continuously putting oil in the car and my warranty is not being honored. This is so frustrating!

The Hyundai Tucson 2017 we own experienced excessive oil burning, due to what appears to be a known Hyundai Engine failure which can cause the bearings to fail. My Hyundai Tucson appears to need new bearings which requires a full engine replacement based on how this car is made. This particular model does not have a recall on it however several other Hyundai models do for the very same known issue. This engine could have seized while driving at higher speeds on the freeway making this a serious safety matter. There does not appear to be a clear indicator of this excessive oil burning.The car was not leaking oil, was not smoking, but for some reason it was burning all oil between oil changes ( 3,000 miles). This 2017 engine should be able to go 5k miles between oil changes, however that was not the case. From reading various posts from other Hyundai Tucson owners, this issue is impacting more drivers than might be realized. The safety concern this kind of failure poses needs to be reviewed and someone needs to have Hyundai do the right thing and issue the recall for repair this known engine failure. People shouldn't have to lose their lives to get the right safety attention on this issue.

There are no warning lights. My car stalls when I go to take off from a stop. It stalled on an interstate. It acts like there is no power if you put your foot on the gas all the way down It will take off eventually or if you put it in park turn it off and back on it will go without histation. This has happened at stop lights as well. I am scared that I will get hit.

The check engine light started flashing and the vehicle would not go over 25 miles per hour. Thankfully I was pulling into a parking lot when the reduction in speed occurred. If this had happened on the interstate (which I commute on regularly) it could have been extremely dangerous. Hyundai dealership never returned my calls about service, I had the vehicle towed to another service provider (Jensen Tire & Auto) who performed a diagnostic which showed codes P0300/0302/1326/0011. They also said the engine was 2 quarts low on oil and there was no sign of an oil leak. The vehicle mileage was at 74344. I had oil changed at 71579 miles with full synthetic, and at 66230 miles prior to that. There is no sign of oil leak where I park the car. I regularly change my oil and service my car according to the manufacturer recommendation (just not at the dealership). This problem is not on the recall list for this vehicle, yet there are several instances of this posted in online forums. (https://www.carproblemzoo.com/hyundai/tucson/engine-burning-oil-problems.php). This problem is not due to lack of proper care, but to a dangerous defect in the Tuscon 2017 engine that misuses oil and causes a sudden an unexpected decrease in acceleration.

My truck was stolen so most likely they messed up my ignition. Before this my lights keep going out every time I replace one a different one goes out. Wheel always going out of air and my truck always jerking when driving or breaking. I am a victim of the “Kia and Hyundai” boys in Baltimore city that’s going around stealing people cars.

Vehicle was called in 2022 for recall #209 and nothing was found. On 07/02/2023 vehicle engine light came on and started flashing. Took to local parts store and diagnostic was performed and showed to be vehicle bearing rod was bad. Vehicle is slow to advance on acceleration.

This vehicle was maintained exceptionally well! But yet cylinder # 1 went out. No compression.

I am writing to bring a critical matter to your attention concerning my 2017 Hyundai Tucson. On July 1st, 2021, while driving my vehicle, I encountered a sudden loss of engine power with no prior warning. Concurrently, the engine light illuminated and began flashing, indicating a severe problem. After reaching the AutoZone store located at 720 Dairy Ashford, I promptly explained the situation to their staff, who graciously conducted a diagnostic check on my vehicle. To my astonishment, they informed me that my car had a complete lack of engine oil, and Code #P1326 was being displayed, despite recently undergoing servicing at North Freeway Hyundai for an open recall and at my local Firestone. Both service centers even performed a complimentary inspection, during which no issues were reported regarding the engine oil level. However, I did inform the Firestone location about a noticeable difference in performance before they serviced my vehicle, which was duly noted in the report. This leads me to assume that the engine was displaying signs of damage before my visit to Firestone.

my 2017 Tucson started using more oil between oil changes back in January/Feb of this year (2023). I took it to the Hyundai dealership I purchased it from & they performed an 'oil test' on it @ that time. It past the test & they told me everything was fine. On Good Friday 4/7/23 I had an oil change, again was told everything looked good & was fine. On Friday 5/12/23 (5 weeks to the day)I was on way home from work, my vehicle started to make a horrible banging noise. Soon as I got home, my husband checked it & vehicle was down 4 quarts of oil. Not one sensor light came on warning me of this either. How in 5 weeks did vehicle consume 4 qrts? I park on pavement and there are ZERO oil puddles under vehicle. I had vehicle towed back to the same dealership, I was told engine was blown and there was nothing they could do for fixing it unless I wanted to pay (no warranty) because I have 117K on vehicle. I also spoke with Hyundai corporate and they told me the same thing. I have a 1.6 GDI engine. That particular one is not recalled (yet) but, it has the EXACT SAME ISSUES as every other Kia and Hyundai that is being recalled. With the complaints & concerns I had with it and its a KNOWN issue for Hyundai motors having this issue, why wasn't I offered a knock sensor to help prevent this? How did vehicle consume 4 quarts in 5 wks & not one warning light came on? How can the dealership/company stand behind faulty vehicles? These are not little fixes and right now, we cant fix ours becuase we cant afford it. We are paying our monthly loan payment on a dead horse, so to speak. I called a lawyer and unfortunately, I was told they cant help me. Someone has to hold these companies accountable for known faulty equipment. I was lucky vehicle didn't catch on fire or it just 'died' and and accident occurred due to it.

Rapid oil loss and complete engine failure at an intersection. 110,000 miles. Unexceptable.

My engine failed in my car due to the engine over consuming oil. There is a recall with Hyundai with certain engines consuming to much oil. My cylinder one has completely gone out. Hyundai refuses to fix. It has been down since the end of February early March. The dealership has had my car since April 7

Engine seized and needs to be replaced, possibly due to bad rod bearing. Was also excessively burning oil and constantly needing to be checked prior to seizing.

Vehicle has approx. 86,000 miles on it. Engine light came on in the middle of the desert. Was able to get vehicle into Hyundai dealership and they are recommending a new engine (upper engine problem specifically a valve issue; however, cannot guarantee for $8,000 price tag that just fixing the valve would totally fix the problem. Hence, the brand new engine recommendation). Not under manufacturer's warranty due to second ownership. TV commercials & website show first owner warranty info only, not second owner info. Feels misleading on Hyundai's part. Being stranded in the middle of the desert could be life-threatening when engine goes out. I've seen numerous engine complaints on the NHTSA website; however, would like to see an investigation into 2017 Hyundai Tuscon engines and why they are having so many verifiable problems. Dealerships can hide behind the facts that this specific VIN# related engine has not had a recall. (Other 2017 Hyundai Tuscon engines have had recall issues, but our vehicle based on VIN# has not). This should be investigated and changed.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while driving at an unknown speed, an abnormal knocking sound started with the check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and the contact was informed that the oil level was extremely low. The vehicle was taken to the dealer to service recall NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V727000 (Engine); however, the recall was not related to the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 63,000. The consumer stated that the vehicle was not repaired. The issue still persists, and the oil light never comes on. An oil consumption test from the mechanic was requested and the vehicle is to be checked after 1000 miles. Unfortunately, the oil only lasts approximately 400-600 miles before the engine starts knocking.

Mileage: 63,000

I have had engine problems with this car since I purchased in 2017. These issues range from transmission overheating, water pump replacement, and most recently, the car's engine failed while driving. The vehicle is now with the Hyundai dealer, who confirmed that a new engine replacement is required. My wife, toddler and 6-year old son where in the car when it failed while stopped in traffic. The car has excessive oil burn; therefore, I would purchase and add oil every 2-3 months to ensure oil levels do not reach an unsafe level, on top of regular oil changes. The oil light has never turned on despite these issues. The engine light came on only once after managing to restart the car and struggling to get the car to the Hyundai dealership after numerous start and stops on the way. For a car with less than 100k miles (6 years old), the car is the highest maintenance and poorest quality car I have ever owned. The car is unsafe and I have genuine concerns about other peoples' safety as it relates to the engine in this Hyundai Tucson. Additionally, my wife and I are not aggressive drivers and both have excellent driving records. We always take good care of our vehicles. This car was simply built poorly, as confirmed by the Hyundai dealership after stating that I need engine. I will contact again if Hyundai does not honor the warranty for this vehicle (10 year, 100k mile, original owner).

Engine needs replacement, possibly due to worn rod bearings. This matches the issue with Hyundai recall #209, which was for approximately 100,000 of the same year Tuscons. However, I was excluded from the recall and Hyundai now will not consider this a recall issue, even though it appears to be the same defect

Problem with the engine

Hello, I'm contacting you re: the nationwide Hyundai Oil Consumption issue w/ certain makes & models. I own a 2017 Tuscon w/ just over 56K miles on it. Late last year, we drove my car from our home in Ky to Gatlinburg TN. While we were driving thru Cades Cove, my car acted up, so we found a local repair shop & they looked my car over & determined I needed 4 QUARTS OF OIL added! My car was almost BONE DRY!!! I recently finished my 3 trips to the dealership for the 'oil consumption tests' I'm not sure what was done to my car on each visit, EXCEPT I do know on visit #2, they cleaned my engine/pistons & changed the oil. After that, I drove it aprox 1582 miles & 'lost' 3/4 of a quart of oil. They Hyundai Co seems to think this is acceptable, however, I do NOT!!! NO vehicle should burn/leak/lose that much oil over a 1500 mile trip!!! I got NO resolution regarding this issue, except I was told by my service tech to "keep an eye on the oil & add as needed" ... are you kidding me?? My car runs HORRIBLY & uses alot of gas now ( who can afford THAT??? ) I've owned Hyundai cars since 2006 & ALWAYS LOVED them & the brand, BUT after this, I will NEVER buy another one!!!!

Engine is still under warranty. Only 70,000 miles on it. Started burning massive amounts of oil leading to acceleration issues and low pressure. No oil light ever came on. We realized it was bone dry, in between intervals of recommended oil change. We filled up and monitored. Car is burning over a quart of oil every 1,000 miles causing unsafe driving conditions and costly repairs that are outside of the recommended maintenance in owner manual. Hyundai dealership refuses to approve oil consumption test. Case management will not return my communication. Car has been in the shop for 5 weeks without an answer. This is happening to thousands of people. People who didn’t realize it early enough are being left stranded with seized engines and Hyundai taking no ownership even though most are under warranty still.

Driving into work on Friday June 2, 2023 my engine started making a noise that got progressively worse as I got to work. The engine was knocking loudly and I was not comfortable driving it home. I called AAA and had the vehicle towed to a Hyundai Dealership. The car has 77,780 on it. I bought it used in 2019. The engine is no good. No lights no indication of any problems just that horrible noise. I was told because I bought it used the powertrain warranty wouldn't apply. I did buy an extended warranty and am now waiting to see if they will cover the engine. I am now up to $300.00 in "diagnostic" fees. I knew the engine was gone I could have saved my money but of course need to now jump through hoops to see if this will be covered. Not holding my breath I am sure there will be some fine print in which is will be denied. They said that it would cost $15000.00 to put in a new engine. I owe $9000.00 on the car. UNBELIEVABLE!!!

Car has been hesitating to start this last week, Friday 6/2/23 warning lights came on & air conditioning stopped working. My local Hyundai shop is booked 2 weeks out so I already have an appt for 6/13/23. But on 6/2 I barely made it to a shop close to my home for a diagnostic check. Code P1111 was stored, cleared & retested. It's for fuel pump, circuit was tested & no faults were found & test driven with no return of code. Picked up car on Monday 6/5 with no issues. Tuesday car hesitated to start, 3rd time it started with no issue & no warning light/s. Today 6/7 around noon while I was making a turn the car completely shut off without warning. I've also noted that the oil level is always low, I have to check & put in oil at least every 2 weeks but there doesn't seem to be an oil leak. Also from stop to go at a light for example the car hesitates and then jerks forward. In the past I was told at a Hyundai facility that this is normal because of the dual clutch or something to that fact. The incident today was scary as there were a lot of cars behind me and cars coming towards me. The attached pic of warning lights was from Friday, 6/2/23.

My car sounded awful when going 30mph. The oil light flickered on and off when sitting still. I took it to 2 mechanics and my engine is shot. I can not safely drive my car. Hyundai can not sell me a new motor because they have discontinued to make a long block motor for my car. My car has very little power and I was lucky enough to make it to work. The mechanics state there is a ton of metal in the engine. I have changed the oil regularly. My car was using oil and I called a dealership the soonest they could get me in was 3 weeks out. I still owe a nice bit of money on my car and now I am having a difficult time finding a 1.6 T engine. No option for a new engine only a re built engine which runs $6,700.00 and has a wait to be shipped.

Several days ago, my daughter informed me that she heard a grinding noise from the engine while driving the car. I drove the car did not hear a grinding noise but noticed the car had little to no acceleration. Fluid levels were checked and found to be ok. The next day, my daughter told me the check engine light was illuminated and blinking. I checked fluid levels again and drove the car and noticed same engine acceleration issue as the day before. On May 23, scheduled car for service and diagnostic to determine the issue and service technician identified an engine "knock" during diagnostic and recommended I take the Hyundai Tucson to a local Hyundai dealer for service.

Excessive oil consumption for years now. Up to 2 qts/week based on average driving 700-1000 miles driven per week

I was driving over the Burlington Bristol Bridge on 3/15/2023 when my car lost power, with no warning. My check engine light came on and was blinking. I coasted over the bridge, immediately pulled over and had the car towed to my local Hyundai Dealer. I was told my car had no oil in it. My low oil light never came on ever. Dealer told me "someone probably didn't put enough oil in the car" I requested an oil consumption test. Drove the car for 1000 miles, came back and they told me the car was "fine" I drove the car another 1000 miles and checked my oil and was on the L. I would have ended up breaking down again. The code my car threw was P1326 which they told me was low oil, I found out that is untrue. It was a knocking sensor. My car burned 3 qts of oil in 2000 miles. It is completely unsafe to drive as I could lose power while driving and make it inoperable. Please help.

My engine is knocking and I was told after taking the car to the dealership that it is a rod making that sound but my car does not show up on the recall. I think something was overlooked and know of other instances similar to this.

I had recently just had gotten and oil change less than 2 months ago, I had to take my car back to the dealership because it was taking a while for the car to pick up speed. Once I took it into the dealership they told me my engine needs to be replaced. I know someone else that I know that has a hyundai as well and their engine completely gave out as well. What's going on with the engines. My car doesn't even have 100,000 miles on it yet, there's no way my engine should've gave out.

On the morning of April 22, 2023, I brought the vehicle in for a routine oil change and suddenly heard a loud knocking noise coming from the engine. The mechanic advised me to immediately bring the vehicle to a Hyundai service center. At no point was there any alert or warning sign such as a check engine light. I was left stranded with my newborn. The vehicle was brought into Freehold Hyundai in New Jersey for emergency service, and on April 25, 2023, I was informed that the vehicle needed a new engine.

I took the vehicle in for a recall for unrelated issues to this problem at 90,000 miles (July 6 2022). The technician noted that the vehicle was leaking oil and it needed an oil pan reseal. I brought the vehicle back for this service on March 6 2023. Between the initial recall service and this service, I noticed that the vehicle was consuming a significant amount of oil, beyond regular consumption. On several occasions, after about 1000 miles after the oil was changed, I was adding 2-3 quarts of oil to the vehicle. Moreover, when the oil was changed, the technician who changed the oil, noted that the oil was very dirty despite only going 3000-4000 miles between oil changes. I mentioned this to the Lehigh Valley Hyundai Service Desk and that it was highly unlikely that an oil pan reseal would resolve this. They ordered an oil consumption test and instructed me to drive the vehicle for 1000 miles. I did this and brought the vehicle back in to Lehigh Valley Hyundai on April 1, 2023. They checked the oil, the technician ordered an oil combustion cleaning, and instructed me to drive the vehicle an additional 1000 miles before bringing it back in for the oil combustion test. During this period, I noticed that the vehicle lost a significant amount of power. During a drive back from Widener University, I barely had enough power to drive up hills on the Northeast Extension and almost got into two wrecks due to the lack of power. I took the vehicle back to Hyundai on April 8, 2023 and notified them of this issue. They checked the vehicle out and notified me that the catalytic converter was clogged and needed to be replaced. They gave me a quote of $4000 to complete this service. This service was extraordinarily high priced compared to other mechanic services which cost between $2000-2500. I checked with other services and they indicated that they did not have access to the part and only Hyundai had access to the catalytic converter.

Engine fail, no warning till it happened, her car just stopped at night in the middle of the road while she was driving, she then smelled something burning and got right out of the car and called a tow truck. The car was towed to a Hyundai dealership where we were later told it was an engine block, and the car was basically burning gas. Cars been in the shop since January because the engine had to be shipped in parts from overseas. When the new engine had finally arrived, they took the old engine out and saw that the Pistons headshot shrapnel through the starter and through this turbo part, which is also now on back order. I do not know if the vehicle has been inspected by the manufacturer, or the police. I feel very uneasy about the safety of this vehicle given everything that’s happened and even though it’s showing that it’s not on the recall list from what I’m reading and what I understand everything that’s happened the vehicle should’ve been recalled. With the new findings of the shrapnel shooting through the car knowing that that could’ve been a catastrophic incident I could’ve killed my daughter is very unsettling. The car was purchased just under five months before this happened.

Engine stopped working without warning. The car is at the dealer, they are recommending a new engine and turbo.

I am having a problem with my engine consuming oil. I also had loss of power in the engine when I was pulling out on a highway which was very dangerous. I took the car back to the dealership and they replaced the whole exhaust system and said it was dirty. I had another part replaced last year that they told me was dirty due to oil. I have taking the car back to the dealership for oil consumption test and the engine is still consuming oil. It is dangerous to drive because the engine can seize or I can lose power on the road. I have been in touch with Hyundai corporation many times and nothing is being done. my car has been brought in to the dealership six times since October last year due to this issue. The dealership told me that they are replacing engines but they are refusing to replace mine. They admitted there is a defect in these engines.

Vehicle was parked for 2 weeks while I was out of town. I started the car and when I drove down the street, there was no acceleration or power. I turned around and went right back home. I checked the oil, and it was empty. There was no oil under the car. Having the vehicle towed to the Dealer 05/02/23. I am concerned about all of the complaints of exactly the same problem with the engine and want to document my situation.

Hi, I live in Levittown, NY, USA. I am a second owner of this vehicle. Currently, my vehicle has a knocking sound and car stopped working 4 times this week. Twice on a busy road, and I was almost hit from behind by another car. I also saw the company recall notice for my model describing similar problems. I took my car to local nearby dealer’Advantage Hyundai’ at Hicksville, NY for repair and spoke with service advisor MR. Patrick Lerouzic. First of all very rude person to talk to, he informed me that I have to leave my vehicle for more than a month at site, just to begin with the vehicle. NO assurance or time line when he will start looking at my vehicle and straight refused to provide any loaner car As the car is not safe to drive, I am forced to leave my car at dealer site and to wait for a month only to see if they will repair or not. My humble request to take a closer look at my request and to stop Hyundai officials to play around like mafia with manufacturers defect cars, and harassing customers of no fault of theirs.

The vehicle started exhibiting symptoms of oil consumption in February 2022 and I had it into the dealer because I thought there was a leak but there was lack of power and the car seemed like it wanted to fail. After months of adding oil due to the excessive consumption, it just stalled and died in February 2023. I received an extended warranty for 150,000 miles on the engine and the dealer denied my claim and placed blame on me because there was sludge in the engine, lack of maintenance records even though I provided thorough maintenance records.

Engine was burning oil and depleted all of the oil before oil change was due. There were no warning lights to indicate low oil pressure and car stopped accelerating properly almost causing us to be hit when pulling out into traffic. Vehicle has continued to burn oil and has to be checked constantly and oil added or the problem will reoccur

Around 80K miles, the oil consumption really started to become an issue and I took it to a few repair shops and no one could figure out what the problem was even though the car was consuming oil faster than it should have been. It wasn’t leaking, it wasn’t burning off, it was just using oil somewhere in the car. I checked the oil weekly and topped off if needed. I was driving down the interstate when the car completely lost power and would not accelerate, putting me, my family, and other drivers in serious danger as the normal speed for the interstate is 70 mph and I was surrounded by other vehicles who essentially had to slam on brakes to avoid hitting us. After pulling off the road, I checked the oil and it was not even reading on the dipstick even though I had just filled it the previous day! There were no signs that anything was wrong prior to this; neither the oil lamp nor the check engine light came on. Now there is a loud rod knocking in the engine - AND the check engine light is still not on. The engine now needs to be fully replaced. All other 2017 Tuscon models have an engine recall, except this one, and I believe that is a gross mistake. This issue clearly falls in the same issues that has caused a recall on the other models.

Daughter had the car 2 months and went on a weekend trip. Three hours into the trip her tucson started to make a load noise. She pulled into a shop and had them check the oil but as soon as he started the car he refused to look any further and told her to take it to a dealer around the corner. As soon as she pulled in the mechanic said it sounded like a blowen motor. Now 2 months later still no car because hyundai would not return and claim reports and the dealer i bought it from thinks they should fix it because he has talked to local dealers and the agree. The local machanic took a look at it and said it blow a rod. From what i've found out that this is a common issue. There are no recalls for this vehicle. the car has about 95000 miles on it.

My Hyundai Tucson beginning at 65,000 miles Began consuming more oil than normal. There was a transfer of title through a family member with the vehicle and was not aware that in that case the cars 100,000 mile warranty is no longer valid. It is then reduced to half that or 60,000, one of the 2. I brought the fact up to the service rep at Hyundai that it was going through a lot of oil and they stated that it was normal with multiple cars that Hyundai produced. The oil was burning off and no detection of leak and no check engine light has ever came on. It never over heated. I then brought this up to Hyundai at about 92,000 miles and thats when I learned about the warranty being voided because of the transfer. The car at the time is running just fine but still burning oil and still nothing from the dealership about any issues because the check engine light never came on. Until I was going home one day and the car began to stutter and losing power . It was struggling to produce power and I finally pulled over to a safe spot. It did not wanna start after that. I had it towed to Hyundai service center and they later told me that my engine needed a fuel system flush. They did that and I drove it just fine for about a month. Then it did the same thing only this time the check engine light finally came on. The code was giving them a misfire of 2 cylinders and was not holding enough pressure. They then said my motor was gonna need to be replaced and that threw me off. I feel like that should have been detected much earlier but without any sign of overheating or engine alarms it just kept running up until that point of the motor no longer running. I feel that if I were to get some kind of check engine light earlier in then it is possibly that this could have been avoided. I feel like this issue remains and is well overlooked to many of their vehicles. I just need a new engine not looking for money or anything else, just a car that is reliable and safe.

So my engine has a lawsuit with Hyundai because the type of engine that is in it is causing it to consume more oil. My cylinder one has completely gone out because of it consuming to much oil. It is a huge safety problem because it could have shut off while I was driving it. Hyundai dealership is trying their best to not to have to pay for it. My check engine light came on and said spark plugs and coils needed to be changed. We changed them and they were coated in oil which isn't supposed to happen. My light was still on after changing them and the code reader was saying cylinder 1 misfire. I take it to the dealership and they said cylinder one has gone out. I think they dismissed it because the coils and plus were clean but we just changed them and maybe drove 10 miles so they wouldn't have had a chance to get coated in oil. I hope I don't have to get a lawyer to get my car fixed under the lawsuit like it needs to be. I know a few other people having the same problem and theirs is getting covered under the same lawsuit.

The engine knocks norms oil fast after several oil changes and no visible leaks Not good

March 6, 2023 the check engine came on and I came out of pocket $900 for new Ignition coils.. A month later, the engine starts knocking and now they're saying that the engine is completely bad and would have to replace it. The engine burned alot of oil in that time. I was getting oil changes before the oil change mileage mark. I'm stuck at this moment because there is no recall for the engine for my vin.

On 4/8/2023 I began hearing a ticking noise coming from my engine while driving. I took my car into Sid Dillon Hyundai Dealership of Lincoln NE on 4/10 and picked it up on 4/11. They completed 2 recalls (valve cap replace and ABS kit replace) and an inspection on the engine. The recalls did not fix the issue. They determined that the cylinder 3 rod bearing has excessive clearance of .37 MM. They advised that the vehicle should not be driven as it could lock up at any time. They found that the engine needs a replacement. I was quoted $13,000 for a new engine replacement. They let me know that there has been extended warranted for this exact issue on the 2.0 and 2.4 engine. However, my vehicle has the 1.6 engine which was not included in the extended warranty although it has the same issue.

Excessive Engine Oil Consumption. Have had this problem close to Two Years. Keep going back to the Dealer they have done multiple Oil cconsumption checks an engine Combustion cleaning was done. Was told that the car needs an engine replacement but manufacturer refuses to so.

Engine stalled while stopped at a traffic light on busy highway. Driver turned off engine and attempted to restart, but engine would not restart. Vehicle had to be towed from roadway. Oil level was checked and the dipstick was dry and crusted. Oil was added to engine and engine eventually restarted. However, there is now a severe knocking noise. The vehicle was towed to Hyundai dealership. Dealership advised engine needs replaced. Dealership advised Hyundai discontinued engine so there is not a new engine available. Hyundai advised there is not a remanufactered/rebuilt engine available. There was not ever a check engine or low engine oil level light illuminated prior to engine failure.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while driving approximately 60 MPH, the vehicle started driving rough and lost motive power before going into LIMP Mode. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the engine oil level was low. The contact stated that the engine oil had recently been changed. The contact also stated that vehicle had been previously serviced and that the catalytic converter was replaced; however, the failure persisted. The manufacturer was not yet notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 93,000.

My vehicle did not accelerate when I pressed the gas - also I am low on oil and I’m not due for an oil change, meaning there is an oil consumption issue with the engine. Something is wrong with the engine/oil.

The Check engine light never went on and I did not cause any harm to the car. I was simply driving and all of a sudden the engine sounds like the car will explode with no warning. 58,000 miles . The car was checked out by the dealer and they are recommending a completely new engine . They have no explanation for me.

It's like the transmission has hesitation before it decides to go. I step on the gas and it doesn't go right away, it takes a couple seconds and then the rpms go up really high. There has been no accident but this has happened many times.

Been having issues with the vehicle for about 10,000 miles, started misfiring replaced all plugs and 1 coil. Started misfiring again. Turns out a valve got burnt up drop into cylinder and cause a compression failure. I’m in the hole 16,000 dollars on a vehicle that is going to need a engine replacement on a engine that is over 5k

I was driving on the highway going 55 mph. My car started sputtering and decelerated to 30mph. The engine light was flashing. Cars behind me had to brake without warning.

Car stopped on highway. Car has 105000 miles and i have done required oil changes . Dealer states engine is no good

The car has been having numerous acceleration issues, it can take upwards of 30secs to actually start moving from a light or stop sign. It also seems to be shifting late and/or slipping. This had caused me to be stuck at a light in the middle of the road and almost hit by another car. Also, my engine completely failed within 5mins, I was driving and the check engine light came on, then the oil light, then the engine started smoking, and then the car died in the middle of the road. The engine completely seized in 5mins. I had all oil changes done and there was never an oil light on saying it was low. When the dealer checked the engine there was no oil, probably from the rod breaking out. There. Was some if the same issues with the same year that got recalled and fixed for free. I got quoted $16,000 from the dealer. That's more than I owe and what the car is worth. I'm stuck with no vehicle and don't know what to do.

After having a level 1 drivability test/inspection test done, code P0300, P1111, P301, P302 & P303 came up. Cylinder compression was tested and found cylinder 3 was at 30 PSI. The technician told me that this is a common issue with this make/model and I should take it to the dealer.

It should be stated first that I do regular oil changes in my Hyundai Tucson and was 700 miles from my next oil change. I purchased this vehicle around 2/8/22 (last year). This past weekend, I was driving and when I came to a stop, my oil light came on and the engine shut off. I managed to get my car to an auto store and the dipstick had no oil on it. We added a quart and managed to get the car home. On the way home, my engine was making a knocking sound. My husband took it for an oil change, and the tech noted that there was only about 2 quarts of oil (and that was after I had just added a quart). They completed a full oil change. We immediately made an appointment with Hyundai to have my car looked at and did not drive it until we were driving it to the appointment. On my way to the appointment, my engine began making a very loud knocking sound and would not accelerate properly. Finally, as I was pulling into the Hyundai dealership, my engine completely seized up, the oil and check engine light came on, and the car turned off while I was in the main road. I managed to coast it into the Hyundai parking lot. My Tucson is now at the Hyundai dealership after they had to tow it from the front of their parking lot and I am waiting on hearing back from them what is wrong. I am being told it could take one month before they can tell me anything, so I am without transportation for that long.

My vehicle is currently experiencing the Oil Consumption Defect that many others have complained about. My car stalled and eventually would only go 30 mph on hills. No low oil lights or indicators were observed before this happened. As well as in December of 2022, Hyundai had to replace my catalytic converter for $3000 which I believe now was the problem of the oil being consumed faster than it should be by the engine. I have been told repeatedly that my oil was almost gone even before an oil change was due. No leaks or oil was ever found outside of the vehicle. The dealership confirmed this issue of a defective rod bearing issue and submitted to Hyundai USA for a free engine under the warranty but are dragging their feet about it and keep requesting additional pictures etc. My safety was put at risk when due to no warning lights or anything, my car just stalled and stopped in the middle of the road. I also was told by an employee at the dealership that my vehicle barely passed Hyundai's bearing test and to "drive my vehicle until it blows up" and then they should be able to cover the engine. I was not willing to put my safety at risk on a highway 300 miles away from my home. So it has sat at the dealership for at least a month now. It was available upon request

Engine Failure at 73,000 miles with routine maintenance, under warranty (TXXM). Knocking sound from car, engine light started flashing and unable to accelerate on highway, putting myself and others on the road in danger. Immediately pulled off highway at next available exit and had the vehicle towed to dealer who is negligent in service inspection - stating not part or recent recall or under warranty. Dealer will not return calls or elaborate on service assessment other than "new engine needed." Escalated ticket to Hyundai national account.

two things....my back passenger side door just stopped opening...you cannot open from inside nor can you open from outside... won't open at all and now I notice the window 'sticks' I have to put it down and then it will go up slowly. 2nd this car burns through oil and I have seen other complaints regarding this from others online as well. I have to have an extra container of oil to use once every other week and now the muffler is smelling bad no oil can light ever when on but when I bought it used, about 3 weeks later the engine light came on and it started to knock. I went to a Jiffy Lube and they said "you have no oil" there are no spots at work or my driveway! This engine is a joke

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while driving 25 MPH, the engine made abnormal knocking sounds. Several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The contact veered to the side of the road and turned off the vehicle. The vehicle failed to restart. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that there was no compression on the engine cylinder and the engine needed to be replaced. The dealer sent a diagnostic report to the manufacturer. The manufacturer then informed the dealer that a part of the repair would be covered. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 31,000.

My car randomly has check engine light go on and off. I check oil and it is low can not drive 3,000 miles without filling oil. It is so frequent that I check it every week. Dealership said they are known for engine issues best if I keep an eye on the oil. I love my car but this is crazy it has101,800 miles.

I have had my 2017 1.8L eco Hyundai Tucscon for 3 years now and recently it's been giving me signs of problems that are great concerns for safety, as well-known for this models; it only 62091 miles as of the day of this complaint. On Jan 15. 2023, I noticed that each time I start the car, it takes a little bit longer, then you hear a rattle sound and shaking of the engine block, then it start. Or the engine would suddenly slip, followed by a brief rattle sound while driving. I took it in for service to Manly Hyundai in Santa Rosa on Jan 27, 2023, but the mechanics there told me that they could not find where the problems are coming from, and that I would need to wait for an engine light to come on, as any diagnostic at this point maybe unnecessary and costly. Had I known that the 2017 Tucson had so many issues and recalls, or engine defects, specially the slipping or shaking on acceleration from idle, I would never put my money on a commuter like that. I AM STILL WORRIED FOR THE EUGINE NOT TO BLOW UP AS PER PREVIOUS INCIDENTS WITH THIS MODEL. Common issues: The18.0-liter eco 4-cylinder engines, which may have defective rod bearings. The bearings may wear prematurely. This can cause the engine to stall during operation. In extreme cases, a damaged connecting rod can puncture the engine block and cause the engine to leak oil onto hot components, leading to a fire. Please do something.

CONSTANTLY JERKING, HESITATING OR STALLING.

The car is consuming oil at an excessive rate. Oil needs to be added every 2000 miles. The car will start to run loud and struggle but no leaks can be found and the low oil light is not turning on to warn of low oil. This started about 8 months ago and now I have to frequently add oil every 2000 miles which should not be necessary. There is currently a class action lawsuit pending regarding this issue.

Vehicle is showing transmission issues that match recall issued for same vehicle and model, problems accelerating and misfiring which appears to be dangerous too drive.

the car was unresponsiveness when pushing the gas pedal, delay when accelerating, shaking, and the gears do not seem to change. this causes problems when trying to merge into traffic, make turns and anytime when acceleration is needed. We took it to the dealership said we needed a Dual Clutch kit however the vin does not have a recall therefore want to charge $2264.00. to fix the problem. it is obviously a manufacture defect. the car has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others. There were not any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. this problem has been going on for 6 months.

Engine defective after 70,000 miles driven. Hyundai agreed the engine was defective and agreed to replace engine after it was brought in and diagnosed on December 12th 2022. Vehicle still at dealership awaiting new engine. Dealer stated that engine is on back order as of this date January 23rd 2023, and has no idea when it will be coming in!

I have had my 2017 Tuscan a month shy of 2 years. Kept up with oil changes. No oil spots on the cement where I park. Had just had an oil change a few weeks prior in fact. I had loss of power. My car wouldnt accelerate so I took it to Bradford Towing in Haverhill Ma and they looked at it and even put in a camera to see the damage. A bearing in the engine blew a whole through a piston causing an oil leak and misfire. My engine is junk now. Key Hyundai of Salem Nh was contacted by Bradford Towing who confirmed it was a known issue and they had repaired over 80 vehicles in the year prior. My particular VIN hasnt been recalled but it should be. I could have been in an accident or worse. Hyundai wont help me because Im not the original owner and I didnt buy it certified.

2022-1-09 Left the house to run errands and noticed the car seemed sluggish when I stepped on the gas to accelerate. I'd actually felt like this may have been happening for some time but it is a "Sport" and it always felt a little funky when you accelerrated. It was blistery cold so my initial thought was I left too quickly and the vehicle maybe needed time to warm up. It felt like the engine didn't either seem to be shifting to a higher gear, or getting enough power to accelerate which was very concerning as this happened as I pulled out onto a busier road, yet couldn't accelerate. I made it to my first stop but called my husband to express concern something seems off with the vehicle. I told him I would likely skip my errands and come home for him to take a look. After my stop, I started the Tucson up to head home - and now the check engine light came on (solid)! Apparently flashing check engine is more serious? I was able to make the drive home to unload groceries but the whole ride home I couldn't accelerate properly so it was a scary drive home, I drove slowly on backroads and used my flashers to get home safely. We immediately called the Hyundai dealer near us which closed. Called four times the next am as we needed whatever was going on fixed quickly. Once the vehicle was at the dealer, we learned it had complete transmission failure. Thankfully it appears this is under warranty. It is STILL at the dealer as it needed to get an inspector to come out to confirm it was transmission failure (which has now been confirmed 10 days later).

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while driving 60 MPH, the check engine warning light was flashing. The contact stated that the vehicle deaccelerated, and the vehicle started shaking. The contact was able to pull over safely, turned off, and then restarted the vehicle and the vehicle operate normally; however, several minutes later the failure recurred. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted, and a case was filed. The failure mileage was 49,000.

While driving on the interstate, my Tuscon started flashing a yellow check engine light and lost power. I had previously had it in to question why it would jerk when just starting. Dealer found nothing. We were able to safely get to the safely to the side of the road. It was towed to a dealership. The dealership said I was going to need a new engine. We did put in a good will warranty claim which the company is currently working on needing pictures from all parts of the engine and the dealer is working with them.. The car is a 2017 and only 107,000 miles.

Engine started to misfire on PA turnpike, causing loss of power. Engine light came on. This was on a stretch of road with downhill s-curves at night. Car has been using a quart of oil every 500 or so miles. Turbo disintegrated at 100,000 miles, this current incident happened at 120.000 miles. I believe they are related. So far, Hyundai say that there is no compression in at least one cylinder and they have to disassemble engine to determine extent of problem. Engine codes stated multiple misfires in cylinders 2 and 4.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while his wife was driving at an undisclosed speed, a knocking sound was heard coming from the engine with the oil pressure warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle remained with the independent mechanic awaiting the repair. The contact made the local dealer aware of the failure and was informed that the VIN was not included in a recall. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 69,000.

The vehicle loses power/decelerates during normal operation regardless of speed. The car does not indicate an error (check engine light) does not illuminate. The vehicle has been at the dealer under warranty since 10/3/2022 with numerous diagnostics performed. The service manager gave us an update; Began diagnosis Had drop in turbo when Acc ordered turbo on 10/7/22 Turbo came in on 10/25/22 installed 10/28 Still same issue but no drop in turbo now 11/4/22 exhaust was removed from cat back and road tested. 11/9/22 They have cleaned all grounds, and checked all connections at the ecm.

Hyundai Corporation has been informed and a case was made on 12/28/2022

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION causing engine failures. Excessive engine oil consumption, will also shorten the service life of, oxygen sensors and catalytic converters, spark plugs and much more. ALL which I have had to replace since buying vehicle used in May 2021. This vehicle is not on the vehicle engine replacement recall campaign and I am not sure why. THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A MAJOR ENGINE MANUFACTURING PROBLEM. Hyundai should be responsible for manufacturing problems and they also should do what it takes to fix the problem. MY REQUEST: for Hyundai to reimburse me the money I have spent fixing, repairing and money spent on oil to operate this vehicle. AS all the information shows, this is a manufacturing issue with the engine and NO VEHICLE should consume/burn this much oil. It has been proven that EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION causes engine and parts failures. THERE are no leaks detected either by the dealership or repair shops. Frequently having an oil change doesn’t change anything. I had an oil change (yes I have all receipts of repairs) less than a month ago and I have already had to put in 2 quarts of oil.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while driving approximately 50-55 mph when the vehicle began smoking from the front end of the vehicle and shortly after began decelerating. The contact coasted to the side of the road where the vehicle stalled. The smoke settled as the vehicle decelerated and stalled. There were no warning. The vehicle failed to restart. The contact noticed there was oil leaking all over the roads from underneath the vehicle. There contact was unsure if there was a police report filed. There were no injuries or medical attention needed. The vehicle was towed to the dealer who had yet to report a diagnosis. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 63,000.

Engine failure due to oil bearings. Engine collapsed on highway while driving(11/23/2022), no engine or oil light came on prior to incident to warn possible engine failure. Vehicle is currently being diagnosed by Hyundai to determine engine recall. No determination at this time.

I’ve bought this vehicle 5 years ago,I have been the only owner,I’ve done my oil change on time and keep up with all services,my vehicle start making this clapping sounds when I take it to the dealership, they told me the rod In the engine is gone and that I need a new engine,I try to get Hyundai to replace the engine,they asked for proved of oil changes from 70.000 to 102.000 I gave them those then they came back asked for 40.000 to 70.000 I couldn’t get those I lived in few states traveling for work.I look it up and noticed I’m not the only with the issue,they declined to replace the engine,now I have a car that I’m still making payments on with a fail engine that will cost over $15.000. I’ve own so many other vehicles before this,this is the worst experience I’ve had owning a new car

I was driving to work after dropping my son off and I took a right turn onto a street and my car slowed down and the check engine light came on, flashing. I continued to drive to work as I was one minute away and needed to get off the street asap. (where I turned had no room for pulling over). I parked my car. I had a prenatal appointment to go to, so I started my car. No check engine light when started until I got on the on ramp to the mass pike, my car went from 50 to 35 in a matter of minutes. I went into the breakdown lane until the next exit which was only a mile or so. I pulled into a gas station and called my husband to come get me as I still had an appointment to go to. After my appointment we retuned to my car and had it towed to the dealership as it is not safe to drive while pregnant. They told me it may be an engine issue and they will try to expedite my car. What annoys me is that this happened before and they claimed it was because I was over my oil change mileage and deemed it my fault and made me pay almost 300 for them to fix it. Yet I feel as if that just bought my engine time before it actually failed. This also happened with my 2015 Sonata Sport back in like 2018/2019 before someone rear ended me and totaled me. But what is my luck that this happens with 2 of my Hyundai. It is very frustrating.

I have a Hyundai Tuscon 2017 ECO and I am experiencing the same engine symptoms as others involved in recalls. The car is only 5 years old but I have noticed that it has stuttery starts from stops and when just trying to accelerate. The engine would often jerk while driving. The vehicle is at 111,000 miles and now the engine is knocking and has very weak take off to the point it’s not drivable. This poor take off has almost caused me to get hit multiple times. There is no telling when it would happen. After the knocking started I spoke with a mechanic who said that the engines burn oil quickly which I have never been told in the past five years. If this was the cause I would expect the manufacturer to inform the owners that is an issue. No one in the past 5 years worth of oil changes (including many at the dealership) mentioned this until the engine needs replaced. I would expect a engine to last longer then 5 years and 111,000 miles before giving out.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that on multiple occasions, upon acceleration from a stop, there was a 3-second delayed before the vehicle responded and sputtered and lunged forward. The contact stated that on several occasions while idling or coming to a stop, the vehicle hesitated. Additionally, the contact stated while in reverse, the audible alert system failed to operate. As a result of the failure, the vehicle almost struck a pedestrian. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer; however, the failure could not be duplicated. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was advised to call the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was approximately 43,000.

October 7, 2022 my wife with my 7yrs old granddaughter was driving on the highway. She stayed in the middle of 3 lines. At some point the engine lost power shaking badly and quickly slowed down to 30 miles/hr in 70 miles/hr speed limit zone with semi trucks moving in quickly and honking. Thankfully she managed to stop safety on the side of the highway. Later diagnostic showed multiple misfire on all cylinders and opening the engine showed cracked cylinder. I, backed by 2 independent mechanics opinion, think the crack existed long time before the incident. I reported to the car dealer service excessive oil consumption (1qt every 600 miles) only to be told it’s normal. Then the Hyundai Corporation denied 100 k warranty repair blaming without any proof, poor maintenance

My car Was taken care of always getting oil changes whatever it needed done.. one day my car started making a rattling noise. it turned out it was my engine. I do see a ton of my model car 2017 Hyundai Tuscon been having same problems on recall I believe mine is under that category but saying its not. Im literally having the same exact problem as these people that have the recall for their cars. I was literally on the highway and thought I was going to die because my engine was making so much noise and this came out of nowhere the car is in good condition and less than 100,00 miles on it it shouldn't have a engine fail.

On September 30th, 2022, while driving on Interstate 20 west at 65 mph my engine began die and my only choice was to coast onto the shoulder. The engine totally died at this point and the only thing that saved my and nephew's life was being in the right-hand lane of the Interstate. Hyundai roadside service had the vehicle towed that night to Vandergriff Hyundai. Vandergriff Hyundai performed a diagnostic test, and it showed where the engine (209) and monitoring logic (966) both failed. My vehicle has been with Vandergriff (1120 W Interstate 20, Arlington, Texas 76017) since the incident. The Advisor with [XXX] Service dept. is [XXX]and according to him my first repair date was 10/ 21/22 and not it's no guarantee that it will be ready by 11/21/22.

The dual clutch intermittently shakes and hesitates while accelerating from a stop. Also, sometimes it's sluggish while driving and feels like it might stall. This is dangerous because if I needed to speed up to avoid a crash, I'm afraid the car may hesitate and be involved in an accident. There are recalls for other Hyundais with the dual clutch transmission for this same problem. Available for inspection upon request. Didn't show this to my dealer. No warning lamps. The engine has always intermittently shook and hesitated when accelerating from a stop. The feeling that the vehicle is sluggish and that it may stall AFTER accelerating while stepping on the gas pedal started recently around 19,300 miles on the odometer. I also reported this issue to Hyundai.

My daughter was driving on expressway the vehicle suddenly lost power. Vehicle began to shudder and became difficult to steer and control. On board diagnostic codes P0300 & P0301. Towed vehicle to my independent mechanic. His diagnosis was mis-fire in cylinder 3 and total compression loss in cylinder three. Major engine failure. Vehicle has 1.6l Gamma GDI engine. Vehicle was then towed to Hyundai dealer. Awaiting diagnostic from dealer ( four week backlog), but there where 85 failed engines ahead of me. Called three other dealers, all had diagnostic waits for engine failures exceeding 5 weeks. If failure is even covered the wait for replacement engines is stated as one year. Sudden loss of power impacted safety controlling the vehicle. I think the issues with this engine class will be well known to NHSTA and report so the size & impact of the issues is best understood at NHSTA.

There are two problems with the car. The first is excessive engine knocking. I brought it into Island Hyundai on Staten Island. They originally denied there was an issue with some of the cars. They said for a $169 they would do a diagnostic test. They serviced the car and said it was fixed after initially denying there was a problem. The car seemed ok but over time the knocking returned. I return the had to do major engine work ie: cam shaft. Timing chain… On the second visit I complained of excessive oil loss. They checked and said it was a leaking valve cover gasket. They replaced the gasket. I took the car back and drove it. There is still excessive oil loss and still minor knocking occasionally when the car starts to move in first gear. I brought the car back in to the dealer, they claimed there was no knocking but that is what they said after the first time I brought in the car for service. They did not state that in writing on my invoice. They told me they sealed the oil access points and I should not check the oil. They did an oil consumption test. They told me to drive it and return in one thousand miles. I am returning tomorrow, Monday October 2nd to the Island Hyundai service department to have the oil levels checked. I asked if they will replace the engine if the engine fails during the consumption test. I only received a verbal yes from the service department manager at Island Hyundai. I contacted hyundai corporate to complain and have them assist me. I requested written confirmation of the engine replacement if it failed during the consumption test, They have done virtually nothing. I asked them to confirm in writing if my engine would be replaced if it failed during the consumption test. I was told they are not responsible and would have the service manager contact me. To date no one has contacted me. I have checked and I do not see any recalls for my car regarding these issues. I do however see other cars being recalled for the same issues.

My vehicle has a high oil consumption problem. The problem was bad enough that it separated my catalytic converter. I had to pay 20% of the cost to fix. My share was over $500. It was said that this was caused by the high oil consumption issue. So the next step was started. I had an oil change with the intent that I would bring it in at 1000 miles to have the oil level checked. At the time of the oil check, I had driven 992 miles, the oil was checked and I was down almost two quarts. It does not leak oil on the ground when parked. The dealership contacted the manufacturer and they stated that was not an issue. The issue is a thrown rod, blown engine-from high oil consumption. I contacted the manufacturer. They sounded very sympathetic. However, they decided there was nothing they could do. Gave me $200 for my inconvenience and sent me on my way. My concern is what if I am on the highway going 70mph and my engine blows. What if I am in the left hand lane. What if my grand children are in the car with me. What if I can't get to work because something happens. I feel like I am driving a time bomb. I don't feel safe driving it any distance. Part of their not doing anything for me was because I didn't do anything before 60,000 miles. Well, I am the second owner. and I bought it at 61,000 miles. I am putting in two quarts of oil every ten to fourteen days. I am hoping you can help me get my vehicle fixed. Thank you for your time.

When I checked the oil on the car, there was no oil and the car has been driven barely 1,000 miles

I was driving park the car and it wouldn't turn back on . I open the door and the car turn back on . The radio everything reset. Now again couples of days later I was putting gas on the car went finish the car wouldn't start like if no electricity wiered . Everything again reset I am terrified that is a electrical problem. Is to danger. It should be a recalled for this. I think this problem that I am having with my Hyundai Tucson 2017 has electrical problem. And I ain't the only one .

On June 18, 2022 I experienced a knocking noise from under the hood of my 2017 Hyundai Tucson Sport, after a regular day of driving - just reaching 80,000 miles on the odometer. I immediately checked the oil and the dipstick was completely dry. There were never any indication lights or alerts to warm me of low oil or engine issues. I had 1,000 miles left until my next oil change, and have always kept up on routine maintenance - I have all records as evidence. I have called Hyundai customer service, filed a claim, and within the next few days they closed the case and said they would not cover costs of a new engine. I took my vehicle in for a diagnostic test, results came back as “internal failure in the engine bearing” - the mechanic said it would be around $9,700 to replace.

After the engine was replaced we are still having electrical and engine issues and dealers in Atlanta area will not accept engine repairs. The car will not start consistently and most dangerous if we use our bights (lights) for just a second even, the car will shut down and restart when the bights are released. This was in stop and go traffic on the highway The radio will stop and do a reset while driving for no reason this has happened on multiple occasions but the bright on day reported below

The 2017 Hyundai Tuscan dual clutch transmission is seizing and unable accurate above 40 -45 mph. It is also unable to engage into reverse. It will shift into reverse, however will not move even when one places their foot on the gas pedal. The Hyundai Tucson seized while driving and I was almost hit in traffic. The dealerships in the Austin area have not been helpful as the closest they state they could look at it is November or December 2022 for a diagnostic and they are not willing to honor the powertrain warranty. After doing some research it seems a commen issue among Tuscan owners and is very similar to the issue Hyundai had with recall # 149 as related to the 2016 model. The vehicle is hazardous and unsafe to drive. The vehicle is putting the safety of myself and others at risk. There was no warning what so ever until later in the day when the check engine light came on. It is available for inspection.

I was driving my vehicle down the road when all of a sudden I started to lose power and my motor started rattling so I pulled over and cut the car off and I had it towed to a repair shop where they said it was a recall on my engine and my warranty wouldn't pay for my vehicle to get fixed because of the recall so I called capital Hyundai in Montgomery and they saying it's gonna be 5-6 months before my vehicle can get checked out and how do I supposed to get back and forth to work and they telling me they can't do anything about getting a rental and I would have to pay for it out of my pockets

This car was bought in 2019 from Car Max. Every few months, I get a check engine light and was part of a recall notice. I went to Hyndai Dealer CMA's Colonial Hyndai in Chester VA 23831 with the recall notice. They gave me a receipt that there are no issues on 17th May 22which was incorrect. My check engine light keeps coming on for an oil change and I had an emergency travelling from Viriginia to Atlanta and have to pull over to the closest repair shop where they indicated that recall issue was not resolved as the engine was consuming more oil faster resulting in the check engine light. I was surprised to hear that as the dealer indicated that there are no issues with regards to the recall. This was unacceptable from a dealer who was supposed to diagnose the problem and let the customer know that the engine problem still exists and you need to have engine oil changed every 2 months. If an engine recall indicates the engine requires a replacement they should have done an honest job and not fill the engine oil and let the customer know that there are no issues. I have all the documentation from the dealer that no issues were found but every day I drive, I am worried that car could stop anytime which is unnecessary stress owning this car. Any help in escalating this issue with the dealer or Hyundai in doing the right thing for their defective manufacturing will be appreciated.

While in the shop, the engine was replaced which was part of a recall (Campaign 209) and also recalls 195 and 966 was addressed. After the repairs and driving home from the dealership, the engine and air conditioning started making weird noises and the following warning lights went on: ABS, power steering, and electronic stability control. When this happened, steering became difficult. We brought the car in the shop, but they denied there was any problem. Within two days after brining the car back to the dealership, the same problem occurred. And now the car will not even turn on.

2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARD TO PREMATURE WEARING OF THE CONNECTING RODS IN THE ENGINE. THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HAVE RECALL 21V727.

While taking my children to school my check engine light came on and then a knocking sound started from the engine bay and a hesitation almost to the point of a stall began to happen. I have spoken to a couple of mechanics and they said the engine will need to be replaced. We do not have a Hyundai dealer less than 1 hour away so I have spoken to other certified mechanics first before having the vehicle towed due to the cost of towing. This is an exact match to the issue reported in NHTSA Campaign Number 21V72700 but Hyundai does not have the VIN for my vehicle listed in the recall campaign. The vehicle has 93,000 miles on it and they will not honor the 10 year/100,000 mile warranty due to me being the second owner and no recall issued for my VIN so I am out of a vehicle and no way to get it repaired.

I had sudden knocking in the engine soon after oil change was done very early (way before it was due)×2 due to the light coming on and I smelled burning oil and the check engine light came on the 2nd time i explained this to the dealership they didnt think it was urgent so they made me an appointment for 2 weeks out so i didnt drive my vehicle those 2 weeks the appointment came i had the vehicle towed there and i now have been without a vehicle 3 weeks so 5 total the warranty company has to send an adjuster (still hasn't come) and there aren't any loaner vehicles for me to use! I now cannot work 1 of my jobs bc it is impossible without a car ! Meanwhile ubering and rentals to and from the other job and school has depleted my savings account !

My engine began making knocking sounds. The rod blew a hole in my engine at 68,000 miles, 5 days before it was 5 years old, and Hyundai is refusing to accept responsibility for the failure.

My engine seized

On 05/12/2022, my vehicle experienced sudden engine knocking and loss of power while driving. The check engine light turned on, so I took it to a repair shop. They informed me that the error code reflected a service bullet of TSB 20-01-024H-1 - Engine Inspection / Replacement. Upon research, I found out their is a recall for which I was never informed about. The vehicle will be taken to the Hyundai dealership for further review.

There are 3 recalls associated with this VIN...unsure why you are not seeing them on your end. We got a notice in the mail last week for Hyundai Recall Number 209 NU Engine. We contacted the dealership where we purchased the car and they couldn't get us in until June 17th. On Friday, May 13th while driving down 90 interstate the car's engine died and the automobile had to be towed to the dealership. Due to worker shortages the dealer is saying it could take up to a year to fix and did not offer alternative transportation. We are now in the process of securing a rental and trying to find another automobile while still having car payments on this one that was entirely due to a manufacturer issue. We want full reimbursement of all costs associated with this hardship. (RECALL RELATED INCIDENT) TS

I purchased my 2017 Tucson in 2020. It was the first car I’ve ever owned. I do not know much about cars but I noticed that there was some hesitation in acceleration and the engine was loud. Sometimes I would hear soft knocking on colder days but nothing extreme. I was told that the acceleration hesitation and the loud engine are due to the turbo. Then on 4/27/2022, without any warning, my engine stalled while I was at a traffic light. More importantly, I had ZERO warning lamps or messages. No engine warning or oil light was illuminated. My engine suddenly stalled. I don't drive my car very far. Use is relatively light. On average I drive about 10-20 miles per day. No one was hurt but what if this had happened on the highway? I would have definitely been rear-ended and hurt. My car passed inspection on 09/10/21. But earlier this year, on 22nd February 2022, I took it to the dealer for the engine recall (NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V727000). They assessed it and said it passed the tests but I have no way of knowing because the dealer would not share the full report. Additionally, the dealer did not address that the vehicle warning lamps and messages were not working when they noticed my oil was low. Hyundai has a long history of engine issues and recalls with regards to high oil consumption and connecting rod bearings inside the engine may wear prematurely. There are hundreds of complaints that match my description. Their engines have had issues since 2020 and these complaints date back to 2020 around the time I bought this vehicle. Even though there were no recalls at the time, the dealer should have disclosed these issues. I think it's negligence by Hyundai and the dealer for investigating why my warning lamps did not illuminate and did not properly communicate the seriousness of these issues.

An update on my previous complaint is attached. My vehicle has now been with the Hyundai dealership for two weeks with no resolution. They've provided little to no communication about the issues, or progress. Additionally, they have not provided me with a loaner vehicle, so I am without a mode of transportation for two weeks.

While driving on the highway the vehicle would not increase speed after making a complete stop at a traffic light when pressing the gas pedal. While trying to back into a parking spot the vehicle would not go in reverse after shifting the vehicle into reverse and lastly the vehicle would not budge/move in neutral or any other gear. No warning lights came on. The dealership Hyundai of South Brunswick, NJ confirmed the vehicle locked up when the tow truck driver was trying to get it off the flatbed and that the transmission is shot and needs to be replaced.

Went in for recalls in feb, not even 2 weeks later car was put into limp mode check engine light flashing. Car was towed to dealership where car was purchased where they said it was due to metal shavings in engine. Car was delivered to Hyundai where they diagnosed it with a faulty knock sensor which had just been replaced not even 2 weeks prior. After getting it towed to another Hyundai dealer for a second opinion was told that bolts from the recall work were cross threaded and broken off into motor causing the metal shavings. Really unclear as to what happened but Hyundai refuses to replace engine warranty was denied. Unsure if Hyundai is aware of the failed engine due to recalls

My 2017 Hyundai Tucson refuses to accelerate after a complete stop at a traffic light, or just refuses to change gears after making a turn, or simply just lose power although on cruise control while drive on the freeway. I have reported the issue several times to Hyundai and the dealership, it seems that nothing can't be done and Hyundai is not taking my concerns seriously. I am not afraid to drive the car since I have a long commute to work, I escape several accidents before because the other drivers were cautious and kind enough when they notice that my car couldn't accelerate. Drivers have blown the horn at me on the highway because the car refuses to accelerate or change gear while I am driving. I can press the gas pedal all the way down, still nothing. When I press the gas pedal down, the engine start shaking and making a weird noise while the car still not accelerating or changing gears. I also notice that I am burning more fuel than expected, and I always get below the average for typical MPG. I personally consider this car is unsafe to drive, and I am strongly thinking about trade it in.

My 2017 Hyundai Tucson Has a recall (Campaign 209 ) The problem is a worn connecting rod bearing in the motor could puncture the engine block and cause a fire. So I took my car to my Dealer on Feb.4, 2022 All the Technician did was replaced a sensor never replaced the bearing that cause the problem. Invoice # 615008/1 On March 24, 2022 I checked Hyundai recall's I put my vin # in and it said NOTE with a GREEN check mark there are NO open safety or service campaign for this vehicle. IT looks like they took us out of the system so Hyundai Motor Co don't have to replace the BAD PARTS.

Dear NHTSA, 2017 Hyundai Tuscon DCT Transmission Problem. Huge RPM fluctuating problem and car does not move when accelerating the gas. I ham facing same issue as like explained in video. Video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCVtr_zcyrs

My 2017 Hyundai Tuscon 1.6L Turbo failed on a 55mph highway with no warning signs, no check engine light, no low oil pressure light, very faint noise was heard prior to completely failing. Vehicle was towed to a local shop who stated there are 100s of thousand of recalls for this exact situation, then towed to Hyundai dealer who said they have 25 cars in line waiting for engine replacements. My vehicle is not part of a recall yet, but like with the other Hyundai engines is at risk of failing at high speeds risking massive injury and death. My vehicle does not qualify for the KSDS knock sensor they are putting in other vehicles to warn the driver of catastrophic engine failure. A warning to get off the road is nice, but these engines are a danger to those who operate them and those who may collide with them at high speeds in the event of engine failure in lower visibility than my case or even inclement weather.

There was a recall for a malfunction in my engine that could potentially cause the vehicle to catch on fire. The signs associated were knocking in the engine, failure to accelerate, check engine light was on, and the oil light would come on when making turns. I made these observations before a recall was issued, and tried to have vehicle repaired from Priority Hyundai in Chesapeake, VA. They had my vehicle for 6 days and failed to diagnose my vehicle. Less than a month later, my daughter and I were almost hit on the interstate due to the car failing to accelerate. Took my vehicle to Hall Hyundai in Newport News, VA. They performed the recall items, and the car ran better, but I could still hear the knocking. February 7, 2022, my daughter and I were stranded because the car was not accelerating again. Pulled over to an Advanced Auto Parts store and the technician said there was a problem with the gaskets, but said he wouldn't drive it. Had my car taken back to Hall Hyundai and was told there wasn't any oil on the dipstick, but they had changed the oil a month before. Had an engine combustion cleaning done. Picked my vehicle up the next day and before I got home, the check engine light was back on, and the engine knocking. I no longer drive my car because my daughter is scared in it, and I have lost confidence that we aren't going to end up on the side of the road somewhere. The engine jumps as if the car is going to either take off or shut down completely. Asked the representative at Hall if I should bring the car back, but never received a response. The car and it has less than 100K miles on it. I've done the required maintenance. I like Hyundai cars, but will most likely switch brands because I can't get any help to repair a vehicle I've had for less than two years. I've paid rental car/maintenance fees that equal at least 8 car payments. The recall said repair or replace, and at this point, I feel a replacement is necessary.

I was driving home one day and out of no where my vehicle started making a loud disturbing knocking/ticking noise. I pulled over and checked my oil levels and there was not a drop of oil in there even though I just had a oil change 4 weeks ago. I also had a tune up four weeks and the Hyundai mechanics reported that nothing else needed to be done on my vehicle and everything was green during the inspection. No lights have illuminated on my dash in my car for concern. There was was no smells of oil leakage and I keep my car in my garage at home when I am not driving and never seen any oil leakage. My car is disabled and I have no transportation. There is a recall out for a 2017 Hyundai Tucson but when I called about it they said my vehicle was not one of the 2017 Hyundai Tucson but I am experiencing the same issues that are in the recall. I am planning on taking it back to the same bib king Hyundai to get a diagnostic done on March 18, 2022. Consumer stated the mechanic reported they could not diagnose the engine rods due to GDS not allowing him to perform bearing clearance test.

2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO ENGINE FAILURE. THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE FAILED ACCORDING TO 21V-727. THE DEALER REFUSED TO HONOR THE RECALL REPAIR DUE TO THE CONSUMER WORKING ON VEHICLE AFTER THE FAILURE OCCURED. THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE WAS IMMOBILE.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V727000 (Engine) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The local dealer and the manufacturer were made aware of the issue. The contact had experienced a failure in which the contact was at a yield sign at a complete stop and when the contact depressed on the accelerator pedal, the vehicle suddenly accelerated at an aggressive speed which caused the vehicle to rear-end the vehicle in front. The contact mentioned that she had also experienced a hesitation in speed with the vehicle. The air bags did not deploy. No warning lights illuminated on the vehicle. There were no injuries reported. No police report was filed. The contact was concerned the failure they experienced was related to the recall not being performed on the vehicle. The failure mileage was not available. Vin tool confirms recall incomplete.

At 104k miles, the check engine light came on and car was bucking and rattling while accelerating. Engine is malfunctioning and causing car to not accelerate properly by not going when gas pedal is pressed or rpm’s going higher than normal to just start driving from a stop. This is scary on highways or when stopped and have to make a turn or at a signal. Had a self mechanic run the check engine light which was spark plugs and coils and those are changed. He ran other tests and stated the cylinder compression was effected on the third one and is misfiring. Car is well taken care of and routine maintenance done. No inspection done beside this.

Since 2018 (about a year after my vehicle’s purchase), I have intermittently had problems with the vehicle hesitating when pressing the accelerator. There have been about 10 instances where the vehicle will only go 5-10 mph for 10 seconds or so while I try to merge onto a highway and have the accelerator pressed down hard. When I took these concerns to a dealership, I was told it “should not be happening” and that it was likely not occurring because no warning lights were illuminated. I was told that the hesitation was likely just because the vehicle has a double clutch, although this is an unlikely explanation for an issue that can easily cause a fatal accident. Since this happens infrequently, it has not been replicated by a dealer or independent service center. No issues with the engine or speed control have been discovered when I have taken the vehicle in for service. Obviously, this problem is serious even if it does not happen often. A vehicle not responding when the accelerator is pressed puts the vehicle’s occupants at risk of collision, and also risks the safety of occupants in oncoming vehicles.

This vehicle has completely broken down and began smoking on the side of the road only 3 months shy of purchase via CarMax.

On September 20th, 2021, I was on my way to my appointment with Maguire Hyundai in Ithaca, NY when the engine in my 2017 Hyundai Tucson failed. I ended up having to get my car towed to the dealership at my own expense. I made the appointment originally because my car had been making strange noises for 1-2 weeks and the check engine light had come on. At this time, there was not yet a recall for this engine failure in 2017 Tucsons (or at least I had not been notified of one yet and the dealership said nothing about it). According to your website, the recall campaign for the exact issue/situation with my car began September 17th, 2021, and since having my car towed to the dealership I have received multiple notices about the recall. Maguire Hyundai has had my car since September 20th, and the engine has still not been replaced. They tested the engine and found that it was punctured and needed to be replaced. They claimed they had to contact the warranty folks to get approval that it would be covered, which I don't understand because if there's a recall it should be replaced at no charge. Once they got that approval, they said it could take awhile for the engine to get here and for them to actually work on the car. I received a call on 1/27/22 that they finally put the new engine into my car, but the engine does not work/they were sent a bad engine. It has been over 4 months now that they've had my car and we have gotten nowhere. I am skeptical about what this dealership is telling me and if they know what they are doing/have really been doing their best to get my car taken care of. I feel that my car not being finished after 4 months is absurd and I am seeking any assistance possible with this matter.

We purchased a new Hyundai Tucson 1.6 Turbo in June 2017. In June 2021 the Check engine light came on and the car stopped. There weren't any signs of issues but abruptly stopped. We had the car towed to Shottenkirk Hyundai. We were told the car needed a new motor. Hyundai corporate said they would split the cost of a goodwill motor with us, but we would have to wait until November for it to come in. Our cost was $4500. We agreed. Then we were called and told sorry you need a Catalytic Converter also additional $600. We agreed, as I was pregnant and just wanted my car back. In December, we were told sorry but your wiring harness is bad and that's what made the motor fail. So that will be an additional $4500. At which point we were in the hospital having our newborn. We told them not to do anything else as we weren't going to spend $10K on this vehicle. We are at our wits end with this car and dealing with the dealership and the corporate office and don't know what else to do. There is currently a recall to replace motors in 2017 Hyundai Tucson's but since ours is a 1.6 it isn't within the recall. How can it not be included in the recall when it is having the same issues as the 2017 Tucson 2.0

2017 Hyundai Tucson is part of engine recalls 209 & 966. Car purchased through Carvana begin of May, after initial recall issued but unaware car was impacted. All that is listed on recall page is CAMP 966 - ENGINE MONITORING LOGIC - VARIOUS MODELS which most certainly does not indicate a major issue or immediate need to address. In August, took car in for oil change and almost immediately had the engine fail. The oil change establishment sent to an automotive garage of their choosing to have replaced. At that time the latest and most severe recall was not yet in place. On November 18, quite rapidly, below warning signs and issues were experienced creating a very dangerous situation.  * Abnormal (knocking) noise from the engine * Reduced engine power and/or hesitation * Illumination of the Check Engine warning light * Illumination of engine oil pressure warning light * A burning smell, oil leaking, and/or smoke (all of the above)  This the led to stranded on the side of road with smoking, dangerous vehicle. Had to have car towed to the nearest dealership Red Rock Grand Junction which then said couldn’t do anything due to not following initial recall for software.  Contacted Hyundai customer service repeatedly to try and remedy situation. Finally case manager stated engine repair would begin immediately, but dealership stated would only start after paying $300 for new battery; battery that worked when car was towed. When stated as much, then again told weren’t responsible for replacing engine due to failure to install the software. Nowhere in the campaign information does it state that this is a requirement.  Hyundai had created a very dangerous situation and is refusing to remedy based on loophole leaving people stranded with unusable fire hazard cars by no fault of their own.

Vehicle is experiencing transmission hesitation and often fails to engage while entering traffic or passing in the highway. This is a safety issue affecting myself and other motorists on the road. There are hundreds of complaints to NHTSA regarding this issue and my vehicle is affected as well. Dealer refuses to acknowledge or rectify issue even though vehicle is still under warranty.

The engine started making a knocking sound when I left home going to work. I thought that I may have gotten some bad gasoline. No lights were showing on the dash. I work about 30 miles away from home. A few miles away from work the knocking sound increased and still no warning lights on my dash. As I got close to work, less than a mile away, the knocking got extremely loud and the check engine light came on when I pulled in to work. I cannot drive this car and I was afraid that I would be stranded on the road somewhere or the engine may catch on fire because I could smell a burnt odor. A mechanic came to my work place and said he thought that the engine would need rebuilding or replacing. Why Hyundai would have a check engine light finally come on after the engine was about fall apart is just stupid.

Engine started to make a strange noise and wasn't accelerating like normal, there were no dashboard warning or indocation lights. Less than 24 hours later while driving to a mechanic it got significantly worse within minutes of starting and than while driving on the highway a loud kind of snapping noise occured. The vehicle was not able to accelerate and the engine was completely deadlined and had to be coasted into a lot from an off ramp putting myself and others on the road at risk. A trail of oil was visible from where it had coasted and then below it after it got towed. It was taken to the closest mechanic who informed me there was a hole in the engine block and that the vehicle had a recall. It was then taken to a hyundai dealership where it was verbally mentioned that the vehicle broke due to a recall but since then the only statement has been that it would be repaired under warranty and no diagnosis has been provided.

Car shakes and sputters from 0 to 3 miles an hour. Sounds like the transmission will fall out

I am filing a complaint regarding my 2017 Hyunda Tucson engine; I am very concerned about the recall 209 that was released in September 2021, 3 months ago, regarding an engine recall due of premature wear of the connecting rod bearings that can cause engine fire. My vehicle has had significant oil consumption issues for the last 1.5 years, causing me to have to put oil in the car regularly between oil changes, irregular engine noise, oil pressure light illumination as well as engine hesitation and stalling. Each of these things are related to the symptoms cited as an engine issue related to recall 209. There is no remedy available for this issue and no timeline for when one will be released. It is extremely concerning to be driving a vehicle with an engine that may catch fire and I have had zero success in gaining more information from my local dealership or Hyundai Customer Care Center.

I got a email for Recall ID 21V727 because my car has been in shop numorous times because of the duel clucth stalling out. I call NHTSA and they made an appointment for my car on my behalf because i have the issue of the car stalling at slow speeds in a intersection almost getting in car accidents and its been happening for like 2 years now and i have had my suv in the shop over 5 times to try ti fix. NHTSA told me when i take my car there and they determine my car is part of the recall that Hyuandai must add my VIN # to the recall to get fixed. When i took my SUV there hyundai told me they cant look at that because they cant add vin numbers to the recall only NHTSA can do that. So after NHTSA made the appointment for me and waiting over 2 months for my appointment when i tool my car there they told me that was wrong and they can not look at my car. So i left and i still have the same problem. Is this gonna be fixed because i get in a car accident or someone dies. Thank You

when I am in heavy traffic where I am constantly stopping and going the car hesitates, like it is going to stall. When i push on the accelerator the car makes noises and doesn't accelerate like it should. When I accelerate to get on the highway it does the same thing. This has been an on going problem with this SUV since we have owned it. We have taken it to the dealership many times and other automotive places and no one can tekk us why it does this,

I was driving my car and heard a rattling noise. The car suddenly started stalling and it cut off completely. Fortunately it cut off seconds before I entered the roundabout at a very busy intersection and i was able to roll into a shopping center parking lot. It wouldnt start again. Currently my car is at Bob Mayberry Hyundai. They ran diagnostics on or around Nov 9th. As far as I can understand I would possibly have to replace the engine. I was told they have to take a picture of the engine with the valve removed and send it to Hyundai and he said Hyundai also need all service records and they would able to obtain them. My car has around 65000 miles so its no longer covered under warranty.

I have had an ongoing issue with my 2017 Hyundai Tucson since May 17, 2021. Like many other owners, I have recently learned about the recall on engines for the 2017 Hyundai Tucson. In the information with the announcement of the recall, the article stated, “The issue has caused at least 18 fires, but no injuries, according to documents from the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration”. I wanted to know if my vehicle was one of these 18 fires? If it was, I would like to know that I will be covered under this recall, and the engine in my vehicle will be replaced. I can begin to be reimbursed for the $1,000s of car rentals that I was told would be reimbursed before my warranty claim was denied. If it is not one of those 18 cars? Why not? I will give more information below on what happened to me and my car. Through further research, Attachment A on the NHTSA website states that “As of the date of this filing, Hyundai is aware of 45 fires related to the recall condition”. Once again, I ask if my vehicle is on this list? If not- why was it not after the engine fire and the below happenings occurred to me in May 2021. Happenings On May 17, 2021, I was driving home from work on Interstate 195 in New Jersey. My check engine light came on the previous week, and I immediately brought my car into an auto body to receive an oil change and a 25 point maintenance inspection. But, unfortunately, the check engine light went off. While traveling on the freeway at approximately 65 - 70 miles per hour, I could feel my acceleration beginning to get slower and slower and harder to use. I was pressing entirely on the accelerator, and the car continued to go slower Suddenly, the acceleration stopped completely, and all the lights on the dashboard went on. I noticed smoke started to appear from under the hood and from the tail of the vehicle. After nearly being hit by another car, I was barely able to get into the shoulder. I just so happened to break down on the part of

Car stalled with no warning/check engine lights. There is still no fix. I don’t want to keep paying on a car that is going to cause an accident while driving! I’m lucky I wasn’t going at high speeds when it stalled. My children and myself could have died! No one ever called to do any testing but they knew about the recall in July when they told me about it. I’m very concerned that this will happen again even if they do “fix it” this is a problem on multiple vehicles from Kia and Hyundai.

The wastegate on the turbo malfunctioned, causing the turbo to need a complete replacement. Prior to fixing the issue, the vehicle would not accelerate correctly. The vehicle was not capable of reaching highway speeds quickly. The engine warning light was on (low turbo boost) but it only came on once acceleration was affected. The mechanic shop has a photo of the failed wastegate and the bottom portion where it connects was completely broken off.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that the oil level was low, and the vehicle was taken to the local dealer, and oil was added. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 21V727000 (Engine) however, the part to do the recall repair was unavailable. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer and it was confirmed that the part was not available. The contact stated the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact to pay for the repair and be reimbursed later. The approximate failure mileage was 60,000. Parts distribution disconnect.

My 2017 Hyundai Tucson 1.6 L Turbo has been stalling, bumping, knocking, and using copious amounts of oil for the past several months. I checked the oil level and discovered that the engine had nearly completely run out of oil. I immediately brought the vehicle to my local dealership and they seemed completely mystified by the problem. They advised that I run the car through an expensive oil consumption diagnostic test. I did not, opting instead to do some research myself. Lo and behold, I quickly discovered that both Hyundai corporate and local franchisees have been well aware of the issue for some time. It involves connecting rod bearing failure. A class action suit was filed over the issue in California federal court and Hyundai corporate agreed to fix the problem through a voluntary settlement. Unfortunately, that settlement only covered Tucson models before and after my model year. If you wish to learn more about this issue, it has its own website (HyundaiThetaEngine Settlement.com). To further complicate matters, Hyundai corporate has in the interim issued a voluntary recall for my model year 2017. Unfortunately, it appears my specific model may be excluded. I can be reached at [XXX] or at [XXX]. Please get back to me ASAP, preferably before my car completely runs out of oil and the engine explodes. Thank you for your time.

My car was towed to the dealership because the oil light came on. There was no oil in the vehicle, even though I adhered to the oil change schedule recommended by Hyundai. I then had two series of oil consumption tests completed and it was determined that my car was burning approximately 1 quart to 1.5 quarts of oil every 1,000 miles. Hyundai advised me on several occasions that this was normal consumption and even advised this on today's date, even though there is an active recall for this issue.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle stalled with an unknown warning light illuminated. The vehicle then abruptly accelerated forward with the continuous depression of the accelerator pedal. The contact had taken the vehicle to a dealer however, the mechanic was unable to determine the cause of the failure. Upon investigation, the contact discovered NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V727000 (Engine) which she linked to the failure. The manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 33,000

My motor died. All oil changes were made and still the motor died. No lights were present before the motor died. Car started ticking then died en route to dealership for observation ultimately had to be towed.

Hi how are you. I recieved a email about the recall for engine that stalls out. I believe you doing this because of the 100 emails i sent complaining about it and the 20 times i took my suv to the shop for it and they could not fix it. I contacted the dealership and they told me there is no recall and they cant help me. When i take off my SUV will stall in middle of intersection which they though it was the Duel Clutch and now you figured it was the engine. How can we get this fixed or add my VIN to the recall list. Recall ID # is 21V727. Thanks

Stopped at a traffic light or corner waiting to turn, when I push the gas peddle to accelerate, the car will begin to accelerate and then hesitate and stop. When this has happened, I've pushed my foot pedal down to the floor. The vehicle jerks forward with a 20 second delay. Additionally, if I am in slow moving traffic and traffic begins to speed up, my car will hesitate to go forward when I try to accelerate. This is safety issue,

Hello. I recently took my car to the authorized mechanic and had them check on an issue I am experiencing. For some reason, my car frequently hesitates when I go from a complete stop/slow roll to accelerate. For example, if I am stopped waiting to turn, often when I push the gas to accelerate, the car will begin to accelerate and then basically stop. When this has happened, I've pushed my foot down to the floor on the pedal before to make it go and it refused to go for about 20 or so seconds. Additionally, if I am in slow moving traffic and traffic begins to speed up, my car will hesitate to go forward when I try to accelerate. This is a huge safety concern. The mechanic was not able to replicate this issue, but it happens every day or every other day. It makes me scared to drive because it's almost caused accidents. I read I'm not the only one with this issue and honestly, it's a miracle no one has died yet as a result of this faulty issue.

My vehicle had just over 69,000 miles and the engine seized while I was driving. The engine had to be replaced. This notification is a FYI, since Hyundai (from my understanding) is having motor problems in other models.

My car was purchased brand new in November of 2017. It has 71k mikes on it and has been regularly maintained. I began To notice around 50k miles that the oil was brining at an accelerated amount. My car required oil before the designated 5k miles and it would begin “clicking” which alerted me to this issue. September 17, 2021 I was Driving and my vehicle failed to accelerate and began making noises that resembled the oil issue. My car had a full synthetic oil change less than 3k miles ago and by the time I pulled Into my driveway the car stalled. Checked oil and it was low. Added 3 quarts of oil on 9/17/21 and left it to sit. 9/18/21 car started and was driven to car wash and was sitting idle for approximately 45 minutes and on drive home, stalled and had to have oil added again. No leaks were present at anytime and no smoke. Went to dealership where I purchased vehicle and was told they would need to do oil consumption test but that would require me driving it 1k miles up to three times. I explained that my vehicle was breaking down and I was Fearful to drive it. In fact I bought A new car on 9/18/21 and have to get this car fixed to sell. Dealership said this is a known problem and no other way to assess than for me to drive the car the 1k miles and test it. It is still under warranty. I was also informed of an ABS issue that they can fix at same time. While all of these issues are going on, no check engine light or any other diagnostic symbol appears. This makes it hard to even catch before getting to the point of stalled engine. This can be a danger to myself, family and others when car stalls on major highway.

Catalyctic converter failed at 101,000 miles. It is out of warranty at 100,000 miles.

Dangerous acceleration issues... my car hesitates for almost 10 seconds when accelerating from a complete stop, at a stop light or turning into oncoming traffic and sometimes changing lanes at low speeds. This has caused near accidents on several occasions. I have even experienced the vehicle completely shutting off while idling and moving at low speeds in heavy traffic or going thru a drive thru restaurant. The Drive Clute Transmission (DCT) description that came with my vehicle when I purchased it mentioned "a direct driving feeling which may fee different" ... "more noticeable when starting from a stop or low vehicle speed"... what it failed to mention is that the car would delay or hesitate for near 10 seconds then leap forward or even completely shut off putting my safety and the safety of other drivers at risk for injury or worse fatality. The DCT is a major safety concern and a common reported issue. Why aren'tyou doing anything to help consumers? I'm tired of dealership mechanics stating there's nothing they can do to fix the issue because Hyundai hasn't issued any recalls. The 2016 model had a recall for this same issue. I am a single mother and veteran and I need to have a safe running vehicle. Hyundai boasts the best warranty available and I even purchased an extended at the time of purchase so why can't Hyundai/dealership do anything to fix this? This has been an occasional issue since around 30k miles but had gotten more frequent and worse. I first made an appointment for the issue in 12/5/2020 at about 51k miles.

Driving east on I90 the Hyundai began to loose power going up Bozeman pass and burst into flames, smoke and flames shot foul from the car that came to rest on the shoulder. My friend and i were able to grab our dogs from the back seat get away from the car before it became engulfed in flames destroying the front half of the vehicle and the interior completely.

The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while driving 50 mph, when the contact noticed the vehicle started to rattle and shake and the contact heard a loud banging sound. The vehicle was losing power going up a mountain. The contact was able to slowly move the vehicle over to the side of the road and parked the vehicle. The contact asked another motorist to call the police to have the vehicle towed from the location. The police arrived and had a tow truck tow the vehicle to an independent mechanic. The mechanic was able to inspect the vehicle and noticed there was no oil in the engine. The vehicle was diagnosed, and the contact was informed that the engine was blown and needed to be replaced. The contact had the vehicle towed to the local dealer for the diagnosis and repair. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 60,100.

Engine failure at highway speed. Put family/children and myself at risk on an interstate when engine failed with no warning no CEL..after previously making complaints to Hyundai dealership for multiple engine problems burning excessive oil, excessive back pressure, oil leaks..dealer assured us no issues even after informing them we would be driving the vehicle on an extended trip. Left us stranded 5 hours from home..

We bought our 2017 Tucson with about 40000 miles in 2019. We have had some issues that are to be covered by the warranty. The last was the engine going. I was extremely religious about regular maintenance and always took it to the dealership to have the oil changed and other work every 3000. 2 of the last 4 oil changes cost me over $400 and $600 due to what I thought was work required to maintain the warranty, finding out later that this was false and the service people lied. In the last 4 oil changed I reported excessive oil consumption, 1 qt per 1000 miles at least. They told me this was normal and to be expected. I was 4 hours in to a 8 hour drive when the engine failed. I had checked and filled the oil before I left, in 4 hours it consumed over 3qts. It took me at least a month of dealing with the warranty company to cover as we had a lifetime powertrain warranty. They were not going to cover it due to lack of lubricant. As I told them the engine was failing before this incident. The dealer did not record my requests to find the oil consumption problem. It has now been 4 months, still making car payments and waiting for them to put a used engine in it. We were not offered a choice of whether used or rebuild. This is a known problem and have found class action suits for similar vehicles but for whatever reason earlier and later models are included, same engine and same problem as those part of the class action.

UNKNOWN. I bought my 2017 Hyundai Tuscon brand new in 2016. This car was not owned by anyone prior to me and had 11 miles on the dashboard. I maintained this car as I should have and got oil changes before the suggested time provided by the dealer. Now fast forward to 2020/2021 and my car is louder, making noises, not driving smoothly, and having trouble accelerating sometimes. I tell the dealer and they say nothing is wrong with my car but these problems persist. Eventually while driving to work early this year (spring 2021) my car completely stalls and will hardly drive faster than 5mph. I took the car to a mechanic (not Hyundai because they never have answers) that told me my catalytic converter was completely clogged and that it was an unusual thing to see in such a new car with only 100,000 miles on it. They replaced the converter and now it doesn’t stall. The car still continues to drive less smooth and the engine knocks and makes rattle noises but Hyundai still says they don’t see any other issue with the car. My mechanic told me it seems as if the car is burning the oil up because even when i come to get an oil change early it’s always bone dry my car is always starting to get super loud and check engine light comes on well before I’m due to change it so i take it up and get an oil change but i believe this is a defect on the car and i shouldn’t have to continue doing this eventually it’s going to cause even worse problems for my car, i read other reviews and I’m not the only one complaining of the oil burning up with no leak or other explanation, clearly this is a manufacturer defect!

bought 2017 Tucson sport new. Within a few months i notice the acceleration was diminished and the vehicle paused when pressing down on gas pedal. Dealer assured me it was related to the dual clutch. Fast forward to April 2019 and the issue never resolved itself and ultimately resulted in a thrown rod. Engine was replaced. Dec 2020 car shakes violently on highway brought back to the shop dealer claims nothing is wrong. June 4th have oil changed per schedule by jun9 i am smelling smoke upon exiting car. Check oil and it is on low. drop off at dealer they claim nothing is wrong. Force me to pay for another oil change and perform a 500 mile oil consumption test which will involve me driving this car on the highway with an engine that can seize at any moment potentially killing me or others on the road. Leave dealership and the car continues to spew smoke from tail pipe. No check engine lights appear during either event. This is incredibly dangerous and needs to be added to a lawsuit. Hyundai knows this is an issue but they do nothing and people will die.

I bought my 2017 Hyundai Tuscon with 38,905 miles on it. My engine blew up at 70,806 miles while I was on my way to work.My husband was changing the oil and when he pulled the oil plug from the oil pan, NOTHING came out of the pan. We assumed the dealer just didn't put oil back in it or not enough. The mileage on the Tuscon the last time we took it to the dealer was at 54,988. We put a 7,500-mile oil change in it and the next oil change, it was dry again. No oil light, no engine light, no oil spots on the ground or the engine. No evidence of it leaking anywhere. Fast forward a few oil changes, sooner than suggested, we changed the oil at around 68,000 miles with no issues (only because we were changing the oil every 3,500 miles or so). Then while on my way home from work one evening, all my dash lights came on, my car sounded and ran extremely rough for the 15 miles I had until I reached my house. As I pulled up the driveway, you could hear it knocking loudly so I checked my oil and the engine was BONE DRY, it had only been 2,200 miles since the last oil change so it shouldn't have been empty. We added the 5 quarts of oil that it needed and drove it down the road a mile or so to listen and feel it, nothing was wrong; it sounded fine and ran well. The next morning it ran for 15 min in my driveway, warming up, and drove 8 miles and I heard a loud clank. It stalled, I was able to start it back up, it stalled again and I had to coast it half a mile to get it out of the road and into a driveway out of harm's way. It had to be towed to the dealer. They ran several tests to find out that "cylinder 3 had spun its bearings leaving heavy amounts of metal in the oil and pan noted, premature material failure of bearing is cause of rod knocking. Engine will need replaced due to introduction of metal on all moving components." It was in the shop for a month being repaired and now with only 5,222 miles on the engine, I've already had to add almost 4 quarts of oil in 2 months.

HYUNDAI TUCSON 2.0L (NU GDI) IS LEAKING ENGINE OIL BETWEEN ENGINE AND TRANSMISION. VEHICLE PREVIOUSLY HAD THE SAME CONDITION AND IT WAS SENT TO DEALERSHIP AROUND NOVEMBER 2019, THEY REMOVED THE TRANSMISSION AND INSTALLED A NEW CRANKSHAFT OIL SEAL. PREVIOUS OIL CHANGE MAINTENTANCE WAS DONE BY A HYUNDAI DEALER AND THEY DIDN'T NOTIFY THE ISSUE. NOW WHEN I CHECKED THE ENGINE AND TOUCHED THE AREA, I GOT ENGINE OIL. NOW I WILL CHECK HOW I CAN SEND THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE I'M HAVING ISSUES WITH THE WARRANTY OF THE CAR BECAUSE IF I GO TO ANOTHER HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP AND THEY CHECK THAT THE CAR WASN'T BOUGHT WITH THEM, THEY GIME ME A EXTREMELLY LONG DATE TO CHECK THE CAR AFTER THAT THEY WON'T FIX. ALSO THEY DON'T LIKE TO GET WARRANTY CLAIMS OR RECALLS DURING WEEKENDS. AND TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE THE DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW AND COMPLETED THE WARRANTY CLAIM (CRANKSHAFT SEAL) HAS CHANGED THE OWNERSHIP AND THEY SAY THAT THE CAR RECORDS DOESN'T APPEAR IN THEIR SYSTEMS. I WOULD NEVER BUY ANOTHER CAR FROM THIS COMPANY AGAIN.

I BOUGHT MY 2017 WITH 38,000 MILES ON IT AND I DROVE A TOTAL OF 400 MILES A WEEK FOR WORK. I HAD BEEN TAKING IT TO THE LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALER FOR ROUTINE SERVICE AND NOT ONE TIME DID THEY MENTION THAT IT WAS BURNING OIL OR EVEN LOW WHEN THEY WOULD CHANGE IT. WE DECIDED TO START DOING IT OURSELVES AND WHEN MY HUSBAND DID THE NEXT OIL CHANGE HE NOTICED IT WAS COMPLETELY EMPTY OF OIL AND THERE WERE NO LEAKS VISIBLE. 2,400 MILES LATER MY ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND WE HAD TO ADD 5 QUARTS OF OIL TO THE CAR AND THE TICKING THAT I THOUGH WAS MAYBE THE AC GOING OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, JUST SUDDENLY STOPPED. IT RAN IN MY DRIVEWAY THE NEXT MORNING FOR 10 TO 15 MIN WARMING UP FOR ME TO GO TO WORK. I DROVE 4 MILES WITH NO ABNORMALITIES IN SOUND OR DRIVABILITY. THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I HEARD THIS LOUD SCREECHING NOISE AND MY CAR DIED. I GOT IT TO START BACK A SECOND TIME AND WAS LUCKY ENOUGH THAT I COASTED THE 1/2 MILE AROUND HILLS AND CORNERS TO BE ABLE TO GET PULLED INTO A DRIVEWAY AND OUT OF THE ROAD BEFORE IT COMPLETELY STOPPED ROLLING. IT IS NOW SITTING AT THE CARMAX THAT I BOUGHT IT FROM AWAITING A NEW MOTOR. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE ROOT CAUSE WAS APPARENTLY A BAD RING OR GASKET IN THE 3RD CYLINDER THAT GOES AROUND THE PISTON. MY OIL LIGHT NEVER ONE TIME CAME ON TO TELL ME THERE WAS EVER ANY ISSUES NOR DID IT GIVE ME ANY INDICATION . I WAS UP TO DATE ON MY OIL CHANGES AND IT HAD ONLY BEEN 2,400 MILES LIKE I SAID, SINCE THE LAST ONE. IT HAS 70,000 MILES ON IT NOW AND NEEDS A BRAND NEW MOTOR DUE TO A MOTOR MALFUNCTION THAT WAS CAUSED BY THE MANUFACTURING OF THE MOTOR. HAD I NOT BEEN ABLE TO COST OUT OF THE ROAD, I COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED JUST TRYING TO GET MY CAR AND MYSELF TO A SAFE LOCATION.

WHEN MY CAR DIES BECAUSE IT CAN'T DEAL WITH SLOWER BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC, THERE'S A PROBLEM! WHEN I'M TRYING TO BACKUP ON A HILL AND THERE'S AN OBJECT BEHIND ME AND I NEARLY HIT IT BECAUSE I CAN'T GET THE CAR TO GO, IT'S A PROBLEM. IT'S A MANUFACTURERS PROBLEM THAT YOU AND THEY KEEP IGNORING! JUST LIKE THE FIRES THAT THEY IGNORED FOR YEARS. THE DEALERSHIPS REPORT TO HUNDREDS OF CUSTOMERS THAT THIS IS NORMAL. IT IS NOT NORMAL. FROM WHAT I HAVE FOUND IN MY RESEARCH, IT'S CAUSED BY A COUPLE OF THINGS. THE FUEL FILTER IS CONSTANTLY DIRTY FROM WHATEVER FUEL TANK COATING HYUNDAI USED ON THE INSIDE OF THE FUEL TANK THAT IS FLAKING OFF. THE SECOND REASON IS A PROBLEM WITH THE DCT. IT SHOULD BE ENGAGING THE 1ST GEAR AND IT'S NOT. IT SHOULD BE SOMETHING AS SIMPLE AS AN UPDATE WITH THE COMPUTER SYSTEMS BUT HYUNDAI DOESN'T CARE ABOUT KEEPING THEIR CUSTOMERS SAFE. IT'S RIDICULOUS THAT HUNDREDS AND THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT THESE ISSUES AND NOTHING IS DONE. NOT AN INVESTIGATION UNTIL THEY GET ENOUGH AND SOMEONE PAYS A LAWYER TO DO IT.BECAUSE THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME, I AM PUTTING THE ESTIMATED DATE OF PURCHASE LIKE OTHER CUSTOMERS HAVE DONE ON HERE.

I HAVE DONE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT THE HYUNDAI TUCSON HAS THREE POTENTIAL PROBLEMS THAT CAUSE THE ISSUES WITH THE STALLING/LOW POWER ON TAKEOFF. I BELIEVE THAT PART OF IT MIGHT BE THE TRANSMISSION NOT ENGAGING PROPERLY IN 1ST GEAR AND THAT SHOULD BE SOMETHING THEY CAN FIX WITH A COMPUTER UPDATE. THE SECOND FROM WHAT I'VE READ IS THAT THE FUEL TANK HAS A MATERIAL FLAKING OFF ON THE INSIDE OF THE FUEL TANK CAUSING THE FUEL FILTER TO BE DAMAGED/CLOGGED. THE THIRD AND FROM WHAT I HAVE READ, THE REASON SOME OF THE TUCSONS FAIL IS A BAD CRANK SHAFT. MY GUESS IS THAT THE BAD CRANK SHAFT HAPPENS OVER TIME AND THAT THE PROBLEMS START WITH THE FUEL CLOGS. THE FUEL SYSTEM NEEDS TO BE EXAMINED TO ENSURE THAT THE "FLAKING OFF" MATERIAL DEFECT INSIDE THE TANK IS NOT THE CAUSE OF THE FUEL FILTER BEING CLOGGED AND EVENTUALLY THE CAR FAILS. THE LOSS OF POWER IS SCARY AND DANGEROUS AND MUST BE RESOLVED. WOULDN'T IT BE CHEAPER IF HYUNDAI REPLACED ALL THE FUEL TANKS ON THE CARS WITH ONE THAT DOESN'T HAVE A DEFECTIVE MATERIAL COATED ON THE INSIDE OF THEM RATHER THAN REPLACE MOTORS AND KEEP DOING WORK ON THEM OVER AND OVER AND OVER?

NHTSA #20V543000 RECALL NUMBER 195 STILL HAS NO REMEDY FOR THIS YEAR MODEL. THE DEALER I JUST BOUGHT MY VEHICLE FROM HAS 13/14 CERTIFIED PRE OWNED WITH OPEN RECALLS OF THIS NATURE. I PURCHASED AND THEN WAS TOLD I COULD NOT TAKE IT UNTIL THE RECALL WAS FIXED. UNDERSTANDABLE AND APPRECIATED. THE NEXT DAY NOBODY WOULD ANSWER MY TEXTS OR MESSAGES. UPON RESEARCHING I SEE WHY. OBVIOUSLY I DO NOT WANT TO DRIVE MY CHILD AROUND IN A 'NEW' VEHICLE THAT MIGHT CATCH FIRE. WHY DO YOU ALLOW THEM TO CONTINUE TO SELL THEM? WHY ISN'T THERE A REMEDY AFTER 2.5 YEARS?!?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AND ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED AND SHUT-OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TURN. THE VEHICLE COASTED ACROSS THE STREET TO AVOID ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND DRIVEN TO HIS DESTINATION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO GERALD HYUNDAI (209 HANSEN BOULEVARD, NORTH AURORA, IL 60542, (877) 781-4106) WHERE THE MECHANIC TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE HOWEVER, COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WAS CONTACTED AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE FAILURE WAS POSSIBLY CAUSED BY THE DUAL CLUTCH SYSTEM. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,000.

ENGINE FAILURE AT 121K MILES. I DRIVE LONG DISTANCES FOR WORK SO THE MILES ARE SUPER EASY NOT STOP AND GO. I NOTICED A KNOCKING NOISE AT CERTAIN THROTTLE PEDAL POSITIONS, I PULLED INTO A GAS STATION AND CHECKED THE OIL AND IT WAS BARELY TOUCHING THE DIP STICK SO I BOUGHT A QUART OF OIL AND THIS PUT THE LEVEL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ACCEPTABLE RANGE ON THE DIP STICK. I PROCEEDED TO GET SOMEWHERE CLOSER TO MY HOME. AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND STARTED BLINKING SO I GOT OFF ONTO THE EXIT AND AT THE TOP THE MOTOR MADE A HARD NOISE AND STOPPED AND ALL THE LIGHTS CAME ON THE DASH AND SMOKE CAME FROM UNDER THE CAR. THERE WAS OIL ON THE GROUND SO I ASSUME THE OIL PAN HAD A HOLE FROM A ROD FAILURE. I CHANGE MY OWN OIL EVERY 7500N MILES WHEN THE FACTORY SETTING TELLS ME IT'S TIME. I USE MOBIL 1 SYNTHETIC OIL AND A GOOD FILTER EVERY TIME. I HAD THE OIL CHANGED THE FIRST TIME AT HYUNDAI OF ONTARIO, CALIF AND THE SECOND TIME AT JIFFY LUBE IN REDLANDS, CA. THE PRICE FOR SYNTHETIC OIL CHANGE WAS RIDICULOUS WHEN I CAN DO IT FOR HALF MINIMUM. HYUNDAI HAS SAID SINCE I HAVE NO INVOICES FOR OIL CHANGES THEY WILL NOT COVER MOTOR FULLY? I KNOW THE COMPUTER CAN BE ACCESSED TO SEE THE DATES WHEN I RESET THE METER MILES. I KNOW SINCE DOING MY RESEARCH HYUNDAI HAS HAD THE VERY SAME PROBLEMS WITH PRIOR YEAR CARS. I BELIEVE THEY SHOULD PAY FOR THIS PROBLEM A CAR LIKE THIS SHOULD LAST WELL INTO 200 TO 300K MILES WHEN TAKEN CARE OF PROPERLY. I HAVE HAD A HONDA AND TOYOTA THAT DID HIGH MILEAGE WITH NO PROBLEMS. HYUNDAI STILL HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE 2.0 LITER MOTORS. THE WARRANTY NEEDS TO BE MADE LONGER TO 200K MILES IF THEY HAVE REALLY FIXED THE PROBLEM WITH THIS MOTOR. I WILL NEVER BUY OR RECOMMEND A HYUNDAI VEHICLE TO ANYONE!

TRAVELING ON AN EXIT RAMP OFF THE HIGHWAY THE ENGINE FAILED COMPLETELY. I HAD TO CASH IT DOWN AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. PROCEEDING ON THE NEXT HIGHWAY THE CAR CONTINUALLY STALLED APPROXIMATELY 10 TIMES BEFORE FINDING A SAFE PULLOVER; PUTTING MYSELF AND OTHER LIVES AT RISK. I TAKE EXCELLENT CARE OF MY VEHICLE FOLLOWING ALL MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES TO KEEP A HAPPY AND HEALTHY VEHICLE. IT'S A HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT THAT AFTER JUST A FEW WEEKS SHORT OF THREE YEARS OF OWNERSHIP I'M TOLD THE ENGINE BLEW 'FOR NO REASON - THESE THINGS JUST HAPPEN'.

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.

BOUGHT THE CAR NEW IN FEBRUARY 2017. AS OTHERS HAVE NOTED, WHEN I APPLY THE GAS, THE CAR HESITATES AND THEN SURGES. VERY DANGEROUS AT INTERSECTIONS WHERE YOU HAVE TO GET UP TO SPEED AMONG OTHER CARS. BACKING UP ON A HILL IS VERY DIFFICULT - NOTHING HAPPENS UNTIL IT SUDDENLY JUMPS. HOLDING AND INCHING FORWARD ON A HILL IS SIMILARLY A CHALLENGE. THE DEALER OF COURSE SAYS THERE'S NOTHING WRONG. THE THIRD TIME I COMPLAINED THEY FINALLY SAID IT WAS A DESIGN ISSUE AND THERE'S NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE. OTHER THAN THAT, THE CAR IS QUITE WELL DESIGNED. I REALLY LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE. BUT HYUNDAI REALLY SCREWED THIS UP AND I DON'T WANT TO DRIVE SUCH AN UNSAFE CAR. I WILL PROBABLY SELL IT AT A LOSS AND I DOUBT I'LL EVER BUY ANOTHER HYUNDAI. VERY POOR. THIS FORM REQUIRES ME TO PUT A DATE THAT THE INCIDENT HAPPENED. IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME, SO I JUST ENTERED THE DAY I BOUGHT THE [XXX] THING.

SEVERAL TIMES NOW WHEN MY CAR IS AT A COMPLETE STOP, AND I TRY TO PRESS THE GAS THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE FOR AT LEAST 2-3 SECONDS AND THEN WHEN IT DOES BEGIN TO MOVE, IT CREEPS ALONG. IT IS A DANGEROUS PROBLEM WHEN PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC BECAUSE I HAVE NO IDEA IF MY CAR WILL BE FAST ENOUGH TO MOVE OUT OF THE WAY. SEVERAL TIMES I HAVE HAD TO BACK UP WHEN I REALIZED MY CAR WAS NOT GOING TO MAKE THE GAP WHEN TURNING LEFT, OR I HAVE MISSED A LIGHT BECAUSE THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE FORWARD FOR WHAT FEELS LIKE SECONDS ON END. THIS IS ONE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE DEALT WITH BEFORE SOMEONE GETS INTO A LIFE THREATENING ACCIDENT. ONE INCIDENT THAT OCCURRED WAS WHEN I WAS ATTEMPTING TO PULL ONTO THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY CAR WAS STATIONARY. WHEN I BEGAN TO PULL OUT, MY CAR WAS LAGGING TERRIBLY, TO THE POINT WHERE I HAD MISSED A VERY CLEAR GAP AND HAD TO BACK UP QUICKLY AND OUT OF THE WAY OF AN ONCOMING CAR THAT WAS TRAVELING AT AT LEAST 60 MPH. NOT ONLY WAS THIS DANGEROUS BECAUSE I HAD NO SPEED TO GET ONTO THE HIGHWAY, I FELT LIKE A SITTING DUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. AFTER I FOUND ANOTHER OPENING TO PULL OUT, MY CAR STILL DID NOT REACT QUICK AND IT WAS CRAWLING UNTIL IT HIT ABOUT 30 MPH, WHICH ON A HIGHWAY IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUSS SPEED TO BE TRAVELING AT.

DUE TO THE FAILURE, THE CONTACT HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO MCCARTHY OLATHE HYUNDAI (681 N RAWHIDE, OLATHE, KS 66061) WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A LOOSE DRAIN PLUG. DUE TO THE DAMAGE CAUSED BY THE LOOSE DRAIN PLUG, THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT THEN NOTIFIED THE MANUFACTURER OF THE FAILURE. AFTER AN EXTENSIVE INVESTIGATION, THE MANUFACTURER DEEMED THE FAILURE TO HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY THE NEGLIGENCE OF THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO SERVICED THE VEHICLE FOR OIL CHANGES.

MY HYUNDAI TUCSON HAS APPROXIMATELY 67000 MILES ON IT. I HAD IT IN PRIOR TO WARRANTY EXPIRING FOR ENGINE NOISE. I WAS TOLD NOISE WAS NORMAL.ANS NO SERVICE NEEDED. I HAD THE NEXT ROUTINE OIL CHANGE AND NO ISSUES NOTED. I CHECKED MY OIL 2 DAYS AGO AND I ROUTINELY DO AND IT WAS REGISTERING NO OIL ON DIPSTICK. I HAVE NO OIL LEAKED ON DRIVEWAY OR CLIENTS DRIVES WHERE I PARK DAILY. I OUT OIL IN AND IMMEDIATELY TAKE TO DEALERSHIP. THEY CALLED LATER TO ASK.IF I HAD PURCHASED A EXTENDED WARRANTY? WHY ASK THIS? THEN SAID THEY WOULD CALL ONCE THEY KNEW THE ISSUE. THEY CALLED LATER TO LET ME KNOW I HAD METAL SHAVINGS IN MY ENGINE AND IT WOULD NEED REPLACEMENT. I WAS VERY UNHAPPY. THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD SUBMIT FOR A "GOODWILL" REPAIR FROM HYUNDAI. THEY CAME BACK THEY WILL PAY 90% OF THE SHORT BLOCK ONLY. I LET THEM KNOW I WAS NOT HAPPY WITH THIS AND THEY WILL TRY FOR MORE COVERAGE SINCE IT WILL NEED MORE THAN THE SHORT BLOCK. I ASKED THE TYPE OF ENGINE IN THE CAR AND CAN NOT GET A DIRECT ANSWER. ALL THESE ISSUES ARE ONCE FOUND IN THE RECALLED MODELS. I FEEL I HAVE DONE EVERYTHING AS A CONSUMER TO KEEP MY CAR IN GOOD RUNNING ORDER. THIS ENGINE ISSUES WITH HYUNDAI NEED ADDRESSED IN FULL. WE ALL.NEED RELIABLE VEHICLES TO WORK AND WITH THE COSTS OF VEHICLES TODAY THEY SHOULD BE SAFE AND RELIABLE. THIS CAR HAS ALSO BEEN HAVING THE ACCELERATION PROBLEMS NOTES BY MANY OTHERS.

WHEN YOU ARE STOPPED AT A LIGHT AND IT CHANGES TO GREEN YOU STEP ON THE GAS AND THE CAR BUCKS LIKE IT IS GOING TO STALL.THIS ALSO HAPPENS WHEN YOU START THE CAR UP AND PUT IT IN DRIVE GIVE IT GAS AND IT BUCKS.U HAVE TO GIVE IT MORE GAS TO MAKE IT DRIVE HOPEFULLY IT WILL NOT JUST STALL.I THINK THIS COULD BE A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME.

EVERY TIME I ACCELERATE, THE ENGINE HESITATES. WHEN CAR IS COLD OR WARM. THE FIRST WEEK I HAD IT I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS DUE TO A SMALLER "FUEL EFFICIENT" ENGINE, WHICH I HAD NEVER HAD UNTIL I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE 9 MONTHS AGO. NOW IT IS A HUGE AND CONSISTENT ISSUE, I FEEL UNSAFE AND LIKE I CANNOT GET OUT OFF THE WAY IF NEEDED. IT CHUGS FOR A SECOND OR TWO AND THEN ACCELERATES. SOMETIMES IT ACCELERATES ABRUPTLY.

MULTIPLE INSTANCES (39+ AND COUNTING SINCE I BOUGHT IT NEW IN JAN '18) OF LAG IN ACCELERATION WHEN AT A LOW SPEED (OCCASIONALLY AFTER BEING STOPPED) & THEN NEEDING TO SPEED UP. MANY TIMES I WAS WAITING TO TURN LEFT ACROSS AN INTERSECTION IN FRONT OF ON-COMING TRAFFIC WHERE YOU TYPICALLY INCH FORWARD & THEN NEED TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY TO MAKE IT ACROSS BEFORE THE NEXT CAR COMES OR WHEN THE LIGHT TURNS YELLOW & THEN RED. SOMETIMES IT WAS INCHING UP BEHIND ANOTHER CAR WAITING TO MERGE W/TRAFFIC, OR IN STOP-GO TRAFFIC & THEN NOT HAVING ACCELERATION WHEN NEEDED. IN ALL SITUATIONS ACCELERATION WAS NEEDED & DESPITE PRESSING DOWN ON THE ACCELERATION PEDAL (SOMETIMES TO THE FLOOR), NOTHING HAPPENS FOR ANYTHING FROM A HALF SECOND TO AT LEAST A COUPLE OF SECONDS. THE LAG WHEN TURNING LEFT IS VERY DANGEROUS - POTENTIALLY EVEN FATAL - DUE TO NEEDING ACCELERATION & SPEED TO AVOID BEING HIT BY OTHER CARS. BEING HIT FROM BEHIND BY ANOTHER CAR IS A POTENTIAL DANGER WHEN TRYING TO SPEED UP & HAVING A SECOND OR MORE DELAY BEFORE THE ENGINE KICKS IN - THE DRIVER BEHIND MUST BE PAYING VERY CLOSE ATTENTION IN CASE MY CAR DOESN'T MOVE WHEN EXPECTED. IN THIS CASE IT'D OBVIOUSLY BE THE OTHER DRIVER'S FAULT, BUT THAT'S NO COMFORT SHOULD I SUSTAIN INJURIES FROM A COLLISION DUE TO A KNOWN FAULTY DCT COMPONENT/SOFTWARE. SAME FOR THE TIMES I PRESSED THE PEDAL AND NOTHING HAPPENS, SO I PRESS IT TO THE FLOOR AND SUDDENLY IT ENGAGES A SECOND OR TWO LATE - THAT LURCH IS UNEXPECTED & DANGEROUS IN ITSELF. I CAN'T SEE ANY PATTERN TO IT AS FAR AS CAR TEMP, AIR TEMP, TIME DRIVING, AMOUNT OF GAS IN THE TANK, ETC. THE TIMES I'VE SPOKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP/SERVICE PEOPLE THEY ALWAYS SAY IT'S THE NATURE OF THE DCT & THAT IT'S NORMAL. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR 2016 TUCSONS FOR THE VERY SAME THING & A SOFTWARE UPDATE HELPED, BUT NOTHING HAS HELPED MINE SO FAR. IT'S UP TO DATE W/SERVICE & SOFTWARE UPDATES.

I LEASED A 2017 TUCSON INTENDING TO BUY AT THE END. OVER THE PAST YEAR AND A HALF, WITH ABOUT 29,000 MILES ON IT, I HAVE HAD SIX DIFFERENT OCCASIONS WHERE I PULL OUT ONTO MY BUSY 50 MPH ROAD AND THE VEHICLE WILL NOT MOVE. IT'S ALMOST AS IF IT HAD STALLED OR SLIPPED INTO NEUTRAL, NO MATTER HOW SOFT OR HARD YOU STEP ON THE GAS. EACH OCCASION MY SON AND I HAVE COME WITHIN SECONDS OF BEING HIT BY DUMP TRUCKS, TRACTOR TRAILERS, OR OTHER ROADWAY VEHICLES. THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE SAYS IT'S THE DUAL CLUTCH SYSTEM, BUT CANNOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG, THEY'VE RESET THE PARAMETERS TO FACTORY SETTINGS, BUT IT DOES NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. NOT TO MENTION THE AC JUST WENT ON IT OUT OF NOWHERE. I AM 16 MONTHS OUT FROM THE LEASE TERMINATION, AND FEEL SO UNSAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE DUE TO THE FACT I HAVE COME WITHIN SECONDS OF GETTING REAR ENDED BY DUMP TRUCKS, THEN HAVING THE CAR BUCK FORWARD AND RED LINE. HANDFULS OF CUSTOMERS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS VEHICLE, BUT NOTHING WILL BE DONE TO ADDRESS THIS UNTIL A FAMILY OR PERSON WINDS UP SERIOUSLY INJURED OR DEAD. UNFORTUNATELY, MY HUSBAND AND I ARE AT A CROSSROADS DECIDING IF BREAKING THE LEASE WOULD BE BETTER THAN WINDING UP IN A COFFIN, EITHER WAY IT'LL COST A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF MONEY ON OUR END.

FROM STOP TO 30 MPH INTERMITTENT HESITATION. DANGEROUS WHEN TRYING TO MERGE FOR DON'T KNOW IF CAR WILL MOVE OR NOT. IT 'BUCKS' FROM START TO ACCELERATION INTERMITTENTLY. FROM LOW SPEED TO TRY TO ACCELERATE DOESN'T ALWAYS WANT TO ACCELERATE. DUAL CLUTCH SEEMS TO BE THE PROBLEM AND MAYBE SOMETHING ELSE. HYUNDAI SERVICE DID NOTHING TO HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM, JUST 'LIVE WITH IT'. WOULD THEY LIKE THEIR TEENAGER DRIVING SUCH A CAR?? SOME TIMES CAR LURCHES FORWARD TOO INSTEAD OF HESITATION.

ALSO WHEN I START THE ENGINE COLD THERE WAS A NOISE LIKE THE CVVT SPROCKET DIDN'T HAVE SUFFICIENT OIL, ALSO THEY TOLD ME THAT IS NORMAL. AFTER THAT, I CHANGED THE OIL MYSELF AND I FILLED THE ENGINE WITH A SYNTHETIC OIL AND THAT NOISE DISAPPEARED AFTER 1 DAY OF USE.

***ENGINE TAKING TOO LONG TO START - SMART KEY*** IN SOME CASES IT TAKES TOO LONG THE ENGINE TO START. ENGINE STARTER IS WORKING BUT IS LIKE THE INJECTORS ARE NOT SUPPLYING GASOLINE TO THE ENGINE. IT COULD BE OVER 7 TO 10 SECONDS STARTING THE ENGINE UNTIL THE ENGINE IS RUNNING. AFTER THAT I OPENED THE HOOD AND I FOUND SOME OIL STAINS ON THE VALVE COVER. ALSO WHERE THE PCV VENTILATION IS IT LOOKS LIKE THERE IS SOME OIL VAPORS COMING OUTSIDE. ENGINE IS THE 2.0 GDI (NU ENGINE)

WHILE DRIVNG ON THE 5N FREEWAY IN THE FAST LANE, MY CAR SEIZED. I HAD ENOUGH MOMENTUM TO GET ON THE RIGHT SHOULDER. WARNING LIGHT SAID NOTHING OF OIL LEAK AND GAVE ME THE TPMS WARNING (TIRE PRESSURE). DIAGNOSIS: OIL PLUG FELL OUT OF OIL PAN, ALL OIL LEAKED AND ENGINE WAS RUINED. WEEKS LATER, I RECIEVE A "NEW" ENGINE AND THEY DO NOT KNOW WHY THE PLUG FELL OUT. IF IT WAS LOOSE, IT WOULD HAVE FELL OUT QUICKER THAN 600 MILES AFTER THE OIL WAS SERVICED. PERHAPS IT WAS THE WRONG SIZE OIL PLUG, WE WONT KNOW BECAUSE IT FELL OUT. RECALL IS FOR 2011-2013 MODELS....PERHAPS THE 2017 HAS SAME ISSUES!!! NHTSA'S CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V063. 120,000 HYUNDAI TUCSON SUVS FROM THE 2011 TO 2013 MODEL YEARS. THE OIL PAN MAY HAVE BEEN IMPROPERLY SEALED DURING ENGINE PRODUCTION. AS A RESULT, AN OIL LEAK COULD DEVELOP AND LEAD TO ENGINE DAMAGE, THE ENGINE STALLING, OR EVEN A FIRE, NHTSA SAYS.

AS I WAS DRIVING, THE CAR BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN SO I PULLED OVER AND THE ENGINE TURNED OFF. IT WOULDN'T TURN BACK ON. LIGHTS, RADIO, HEAT-ALL WORKING BUT THE ENGINE DOESN'T START. WE HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAY THE ENGINE SEIZED UP ON US. IT WILL BE REPLACED BECAUSE IT IS UNDER WARRANTY BUT IT WILL TAKE 1-2 MONTHS FOR A NEW ONE TO COME IN. APPARENTLY HYUNDAI IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND IS REDESIGNING THE ENGINES TO FIX THE PROBLEM. HOW MANY TIMES DOES THIS HAVE TO HAPPEN BEFORE THEY ARE RECALLED? WHAT IF YOU ARE ON THE HIGHWAY AND YOUR CAR SHUTS OFF? NO PRIOR WARNING, NOTHING. THEY TRIED TO GIVE US THE SAME BOLOGNA ABOUT ENGINE MAINTENANCE AND OIL CHANGES. THIS IS A SERIOUS DESIGN FLAW.

VEHICLE WAS STATIONERY. IN SOME CASES IS DIFFICULT TO START THE ENGINE BECAUSE THE BRAKE PEDAL IS VERY HARD (ALMOST ROCK SOLID), DRIVER MUST PRESS HARDER THE BRAKE PEDAL TO MAKE THE VEHICLE START (SMART KEY PROCEDURE). IF VEHICLE DOESN'T DETECT THE DRIVER'S FOOT IN PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE ENGINE WILL NOT START AND IGNITION SWITCH WILL GO TO ACC OR ON POSITION. EVENTS OCCURRED IN 01/24/2019 AND DEALERSHIP (CALLED 01/25/2019) WANTS TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE IN FEBRUARY 15,2019 BECAUSE THEY ARE FULL UNTIL THAT DATE.

DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION (DCT) / 1.6T ENGINE START FROM STOP ACCELERATION STUTTERING, STALLING OCCURS FROM INITIAL TAKE OFFS, WHILE IDLING IN STOP/GO TRAFFIC CREATES POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS DRIVE/PASSENGER SITUATION IN TRAFFIC ESPECIALLY WHEN CROSSING TRAFFIC PATTERNS AND LANE MERGING/PASSING. ISSUE HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF HYUNDAI CORPORATE AND TWO LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALERSHIPS. BOTH PARTIES INDICATE LACK OF KNOWLEDGE ON HOW TO PROPERLY DRIVE DCT TRANSMISSION AND PROVIDED BOTH VIDEO AND WRITTEN TRAINING PACKAGES. BOTH TRAINING MECHANISMS FAILED TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. SUPPOSED SOFTWARE UPDATES BY THE LEASING DEALERSHIP FAILED TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE ALSO.

SHE HAS BROUGHT IT INTO THE DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES DESCRIBING THE SAME ISSUE AND SHOWING CAR FORUMS WITH SIMILAR ISSUES AND WITHOUT A SOFTWARE FIX.

I HAVE OWNED MY 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON SINCE 10/20/17. IN THE LAST YEAR I HAVE HAD IT AT THE DEALERSHIP 3X FOR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. TWICE MY VEHICLE HAD PERFORMANCE ISSUES WHILE ENTERING THE HIGHWAY AND ACCELERATION. IT IS LIFE ENDANGERING. WHEN ACCELERATING ONTO THE HIGHWAY, THE ENGINE LOSES SPEED. THE RPM GAUGE STARTS GOING WACKY, OFF THE CHARTS. IT WILL REV TO 5 RPM BACK DOWN TO 3 RPM AND BACK & FORTH. WHEN THE FOOT IS ON THE GAS PEDDLE TRYING TO INCREASE TO HIGHWAY SPEED, THE ENGINE WILL GO TO 45 MPH. WHEN ONE A HIGHWAY WHERE THE SPEED LIMIT IS 70 MPH, IT BECOMES LIFE THREATENING. WHEN I FINALLY REACHED A SPEED OF 70, IT WOULD GO FOR A SHORT TIME AND THEN DECREASE TO 50 MPH. VERY SCARY. TWICE IT WAS IN SERVICE FOR THE SAME PERFORMANCE ISSUE . THE 2ND TIME THEY REPLACED BOOST SENSOR RANGE. IT WORKS OK NOW. HOWEVER, THE SHIFTING OF THE TRANSMISSION IS HARD AND SEEMS TO SHIFT IMPROPERLY. IT TOO IS TIED TO THE ACCELERATION. HYUNDAI THAT IS THE NATURAL PERFORMANCE ON THE ENGINE & TRANSMISSION. THE LAST CHECK ENGINE WAS AN ALTERNATOR FAILURE. I HAVE OWNED 3 HYUNDAI'S. I HAVE HELPED MY DAUGHTER BUY HER 2 HYUNDAI'S. MY MOTHER AS WELL. I HAVE NEVER SEEN THESE KIND OF ISSUES. ALSO THE NATURAL HYDRAULIC CLOSING ON THE BACK DOOR IS A REAL SAFETY HAZARD. ONE DAY THE DOOR STARTED CLOSING WHILE MY BODY WAS HALF INSIDE. THERE SHOULD BE A SENSOR TO DETECT WHEN THERE IS AN OBJECT IN THE WAY. THAT TOO IS CAUSED FOR ALARM IN SAFETY. THESE 2 ISSUES THAT I HAVE WRITTEN ABOUT CAN & WILL CAUSE DEATH.

VEHICLE FREQUENTLY, INTERMITTENTLY, STALLS DURING TAKE OFF FROM A STOP. WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP SIGN OR TRAFFIC LIGHT VEHICLE WILL SIMPLY ROLL AS IF IT IS FREELY ROLLING IN NEUTRAL BUT IS NOT RECEIVING ANY POWER OR ACCELERATION FROM THE ENGINE FOR APPROXIMATELY 3 TO 5 SECONDS BEFORE ENGINE/DRIVETRAIN ENGAUGES AND VEHICLE ACCELERATES. THIS CREATES AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD WHEN YOU HAVE THE VEHICLE IN AN INTERSECTION AND ACCELERATE TO MAKE A LEFT TURN IN A GAP IN TRAFFIC AND END STUCK IN THE INTERSECTION OR IN FRONT OF AN ONCOMING VEHICLE BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS ONLY ROLLING AND NOT ACCELERATING. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN REPORTED TO HYUNDAI USA CORPORATE WHO HAS CHOSEN NOT OFFER ANY REMEDY AND HAS IT STATED TO ME THIS IS A "CHARACTERISTIC OF MY VEHICLE.". HYUNDAI USA HAS CONTINUALLY REFERRED ME BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP, WHO DOES NOT HAVE A FIX FOR THIS ISSUE. HYUNDAI USA HAS EVEN PLACE THE BLAME FOR THIS ISSUE ON THE DEALERSHIP. HOWEVER THE ISSUE HERE IS THAT HYUNDAI USA ENGINEERS HAVE NOT ADMITTED TO HAVING THIS PROBLEM OR CREATED A FIX TO THIS PROBLEM TO ROLL OUT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO ALLOW THEM TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM. THIS IDENTICAL ISSUE HAS BEEN REPORTED AND ISSUED AS A RECALL IN PRIOR MODELS OF THIS VEHICLE, YET HYUNDAI REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING ON THIS MODEL

THE STUPID CAR LURCHES FORWARD WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE AND QUITS IN THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC AND INTERSECTION. IT IS A PIECE OF GARBAGE AS IT ENDANGERS EVERYONE IN THE VEHICLE. A 2 TO 3 SECOND PAUSE WITH THE ACCELERATOR PUSHED TO THE FLOOR IT DOES NOTHING AND THE IDIOTS AT EDWARDS AUTO/ HYUNDAI DON'T CARE ALL VEHICLES SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REMOVED FROM SERVICE UNTIL THEY FIRE THE MORON PROGRAMMERS AND FIX THE COMPUTER, SOFTWARE, BRAKE AND ACCELERATOR SENSORS. FACT IS THE CAR'S COMPUTER ISN'T FAST ENOUGH TO PROCESS THE SENSORS. IT IS A DANGER TO MYSELF AND IF IGET HURT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WONT HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO PAY ME FOR FAILING TO TAKE ALL TUSCONS OFF THE ROAD AND PUT THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IN JAIL FOR PUBLIC ENDANGERMENT.

THEY HAVE REPORTED THAT THERE ARE NO ISSUES THEY CAN IDENTIFY AND THE CAR IS OPERATING AS IT WAS BUILT TO.

THE 2017 TUCSON SPORT HAS THE 1.6 TURBO WITH THE DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION. WHEN PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC, ONE NEVER KNOWS IF THE CAR WILL RESPOND TO THE GAS PEDAL AND ACCELERATE OR JUST STUMBLE ALONG. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM, AND THERE IS A RECALL OR SIMILAR FOR THE 2016 WITH NHTSA. THE DEALERSHIP (KEARNY MESA HYUNDAI, SAN DIEGO) TELLS US THAT "THEY ALL DO THAT" WHEN WE TOOK IT IN FOR SAFETY CONCERNS AND REPAIR. ANY SUBSEQUENT REQUESTS FOR REPAIR WERE MET WITH "IT WILL COST YOU 150 DOLLARS TO CHECK IT OUT IF IT'S THE SAME SITUATION AS BEFORE WITH NO SOLUTION". THIS CAR IS A DANGER TO US AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD. IT ALSO TENDS TO GO INTO SOME SORT OF LEAF BLOWER MODE SOMETIMES WHEN YOU HIT THE BRAKES, WHERE THE REVS SOAR BUT IT DOESN'T ACT LIKE IT DOWNSHIFTED. THIS IS NOT A MIXUP IN BRAKE/GAS PEDAL USAGE, LIKE THE UNINTENDED ACCELERATION PROBLEMS WEVE ALL READ ABOUT WITH OTHER BRANDS. THE DCT HAS A MIND OF IT'S OWN AND IS A HAZARD ON THE ROAD. THE PROBLEMS ARE WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, AND IT CAN HAPPEN ANYWHERE, AT RANDOM, HIGHWAY, FREEWAY, PULLING OUT OF A DRIVEWAY... ANYWHERE. PLEASE HELP GET THESE DANGEROUS CARS OFF THE ROAD. NOT SURE WHAT DOCUMENTATION YOU WANT, BUT THE CAR IS UNDER WARRANTY, AND WAS BOUGHT IN AUG 2017. CARS WITH THIS ENGINE/TRANS ARE STILL FOR SALE IN THE SHOWROOMS NATIONWIDE, A KNOWN DANGER TO ALL CONCERNED. THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE MGR HAS TOLD US HOW THERE ARE A LOT OF UNHAPPY CUSTOMERS OUT THERE WITH 1.6 TURBO/DCT DRIVETRAINS, AND YET THEY ARE SELLING MORE BY THE DAY. YET THERE IS NO SUPPORT OTHER THAN THE ONE TIME ATTEMPT AND "THEY ALL DO THAT". HELP.

UPON SUPPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL VEHICLE FAILS TO ACCELERATE FROM STANDSTILL CREATING A 2-3 "PAUSE" THAT IS HIGHLY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY WHEN ENTERING TRAFFIC, FREEWAYS, ETC. THIS IS CLEARLY A PROBLEM THAT IS DOCUMENTED HOWEVER NO RECALL HAS BEEN GRANTED FOR THIS MODEL. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT ROAD: CITY STREET OR A HIGHWAY. THE VEHICLE HESITATES AND DOES NOT MOVE WHEN YOU NEED TO! WHEN THE POWERTRAIN DOES FINALLY TAKE HOLD, THE ENGINE REVS HIGH AND PULSES FORWARD CAUSING YET ANOTHER DISTURBING AND POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS CONDITION FOR DRIVER AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD. THIS IS CLEARLY A MECHANICAL AND/OR SOFTWARE GLITCH THAT WILL EVENTUALLY RESULT IN ACCIDENTS AND BODILY HARM. NOTE THIS CONDITION IS SOMETIMES INTERMITTENT THEREFORE CREATING A FALSE SENSE OF DRIVER CONTROL SINCE YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN YOU WILL FACE LACK OF PROPER ACCELERATION. AT FIRST I SUSPECTED IT WAS JUST THE 4-CYL ENGINE BEING SMALL, BUT AFTER READING ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE HAVING EXACTLY SAME EXPERIENCE.

MY 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ACCELERATION ISSUES THAT I WOULD LIKE TO BRING TO THE ATTENTION OF THE NTSB. THE VEHICLE WILL EXPERIENCE LACK OF ACCELERATION WHEN MERGING ONTO HIGHWAYS AND/OR MAKING TURNS THAT REQUIRE ACCELERATION. THE VEHICLE HAS DONE THIS ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHERE I WAS UNABLE TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I HAVE ALSO BEEN VERY CLOSE TO BEING REAR-ENDED AND/OR T-BONED DUE TO THESE ACCELERATION ISSUES. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION THAT IS HAZARDOUS TO NOT ONLY THE OWNER'S OF THESE VEHICLES, BUT ALSO TO OTHER INNOCENT DRIVERS IN THEIR PATH. APPARENTLY HYUNDAI AND KIA VEHICLES ARE KNOWN TO HAVE THIS ISSUE AND HAVE BEEN MENTIONED IN RECENT ONLINE FORUMS. I REACHED OUT TO HYUNDAI MOMENTS AGO TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE WITH THEM AND I AM HOPING THEY WILL RESPOND TO ME WITH A FIX AND/OR SOLUTION TO THIS HAZARDOUS CONDITION. MY VEHICLE IS GOING TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN TOMORROW 4/23/18 FOR THIS SAME ISSUE. THE LAST TIME I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR THIS ISSUE I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. IT JUST HAPPENED AGAIN THE OTHER DAY AND I WAS YET AGAIN PUT INTO A VERY "CLOSE CALL" SITUATION. I HAVE A YOUNG SON AND I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS VEHICLE WITH THIS CONDITION OCCURRING INTERMITTENTLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY ON THE ROADWAY. HOW MANY PEOPLE NEED TO BE HIT DUE TO THIS OBVIOUSLY KNOWN ISSUE WITH THESE VEHICLES? MY VEHICLE TENDS TO DO THIS MORE OFTEN WHEN MERGING ONTO A HIGHWAY WHERE MORE ACCELERATION IS REQUIRED; HOWEVER, I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM WHEN SLOWLY ACCELERATING FROM BEING STATIONARY AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS, STOP SIGNS, ETC.

THE VEHICLE HAS A DRIVE-BY-WIRE SYSTEM CONTROLLING THE THROTTLE AND THE 7-SPEED DUAL-CLUTCH TRANSMISSION. IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES, THE THROTTLE PEDAL HAS NO EFFECT ON THE THROTTLE WHATSOEVER. IT HAPPENS MOST IN 'ECO' MODE, BUT STILL HAPPENS IN 'SPORT' MODE, ALWAYS AT A RELATIVELY LOW SPEED (WALKING PACE) OR WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP. THE VEHICLE HAS HAD ONE FIRMWARE UPDATE (AT ABOUT 3K MILES?) WHICH DID MINIMIZE THE PROBLEM SOMEWHAT, BUT DIDN'T ELIMINATE IT. AT 7,900 MILES THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE, AND THE DEALER SAYS THERE ARE NO NEW FIRMWARE UPDATES THEY ARE AWARE OF. I AM CONCERNED BECAUSE MANY TIMES, WHEN IN SLOW OR STOP-AND-GO TRAFFIC, I'VE NEEDED TO ACCELERATE AND THE VEHICLE SIMPLY WOULDN'T DO IT FOR WHAT FELT LIKE FOREVER, BUT WAS PROBABLY ONLY A SECOND OR TWO. WHEN THE VEHICLE FINALLY DID START TO MOVE, IT JUMPED FORWARD AT FULL THROTTLE. THE SERVICE WRITER AT THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THIS IS A COMMON COMPLAINT, AND THAT OTHER CUSTOMERS HAVE ALSO COMPLAINED, SPECIFICALLY, ABOUT TRYING TO PULL OUT OF THEIR DEALERSHIP ONTO A BUSY STREET AND HAD THEIR VEHICLE SIMPLY REFUSE TO ACCELERATE. ON JUST ONE OCCASION, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED AT FULL THROTTLE UP TO THE ENGINE'S REDLINE, WITHOUT MY FOOT ON THE THROTTLE! AS BAD AS IT IS, I EXPECT THAT THERE HAVE BEEN ACCIDENTS CAUSED BY THIS PROBLEM.

WE JUST PURCHASED A 2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON SPORT. THE CAR HAS A SERIOUS ISSUE OF NO ACCELERATION AFTER A STOP, MERGING, PASSING ON THE HIGHWAY AND TURNING AT AN INTERSECTION. THE CAR HESITATES WHEN YOU HIT THE ACCELERATOR, SOMETIMES LEAVING YOU NEARLY STOPPED IN A AN INTERSECTION WAITING FOR A CAR TO HIT YOU. IF YOU CHOOSE TO CHANGE LANES ON A HIGHWAY THE CAR WILL HESITATE WHEN YOU PRESS THE ACCELERATOR TO MAKE THE LANE CHANGE. MY WIFE HAS STOPPED DRIVING THE CAR DUE TO THE SERIOUSNESS OF NO ACCELERATION AND SAFETY CONCERNS. WE HAVE TAKEN THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THE DIAGNOSTICS SHOW THAT THE CAR IS FINE AND IT IS HOW THE HYUNDAI TRANSMISSION WORKS IN THESE VEHICLES. I THINK THE CAR COULD BE A "LEMON." NOT SURE WHAT TO DO.
