FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
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.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
Due to a faulty alarm and anti-theft system, my car was broken into and stolen. This has been an ongoing epidemic and Hyundai has done nothing to acknowledge and fix the situation. Even though the car is equiped with an alarm system, it only works for specific areas of the car, and rear windows can be broken and pried open without activating the alarm. The ignition can then be ripped out and driven without the key.

Potential Consequences:
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.

Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
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.

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.

Defect Description:
UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
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.

Potential Consequences:
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.
