POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
I PURCHASED A BRAND NEW 2017 TUCSON NIGHT AND HAVE EXPERIENCED SERIOUS ISSUES WITH THE DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION. THERE IS A LONG HESITATION WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP, MAKING A TURN OR WHEN "COASTING". THERE HAVE BEEN OCCASIONS WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT RESPONSIVE AT ALL WHEN PRESSING ON THE GAS. THIS IS PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS WHEN AT A BUSY INTERSECTION WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC COMING AT YOU. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP TWICE NOW AND AM TOLD THEY CANNOT DIAGNOSE A PROBLEM AND THAT WHAT I AM EXPERIENCING IS "TYPICAL FOR A DCT". THIS IS NOT AN ACCEPTABLE RESPONSE AND IT'S A MATTER OF TIME UNTIL THIS ISSUE CAUSES AN ACCIDENT OR DEATH. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AND AM VERY UNHAPPY WITH HYUNDAI'S APPARENT LACK OF CONCERN.

Potential Consequences:
SIX MONTH OLD CAR....CAR HESITATES WHEN YOU PRESS ON THE GAS PETAL FROM A STOP. MUST GIVE YOURSELF A MORE THAN NORMAL AMOUNT OF ROOM TO PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC JUST IN CASE THE CAR HESITATES AS TO NOT GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. ALSO WHILE DRIVING THRU A CHRISTMAS DISPLAY (VERY SLOW MOVING, STOP AND GO TRAFFIC) WITH MY FAMILY INCLUDING A FIVE YEAR OLD CHILD THE TRANSMISSION HIGH TEMP ALARM CAME UP ON THE CAR AND WE COULD SMELL HOW HOT IT WAS GETTING. HAD TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SHUT THE CAR OFF FOR A WHILE IN VERY COLD TEMPERATURES AT NIGHT WITH OUR YOUNG DAUGHTER. WAITED A WHILE STARTED THE CAR UP AND THEN IT WOULDN'T SHIFT RIGHT. MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALER (HAZLETON PA AUTO MALL) I PURCHASED THE CAR FROM TO HAVE IT LOOK AT. AT THE APPOINTMENT I WAS TOLD BY A MAN AND WOMEN AT THE SERVICE DESK THAT THE OVERHEATING IS A NORMAL REACTION TO STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. NEVER HAD A BRAND NEW CAR WITH 7000 MILES ON IT OVERHEAT AND LEAVE ME SITTING ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. TUSCAN'S WITH THE DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION ARE A DANGER TO THE OWNERS, THEIR FAMILIES AND THE PUBLIC IN GENERAL.

I HAVE AN ACCELERATION PROBLEMS, FROM THE TIME I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. YOU DATE BELOW INDICATES ONLY 1 TIME. SO WHEN THE CAR IS STOPPED AND TRYING TO PULL OUT ONTO A HIGHWAY OR TRYING TO MAKE A TURN ACROSS A LANE OF TRAFFIC, THERE IS NO ACCELERATION, NO GAS, A HESITATION I CAN PUNCH THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR BEFORE IT ACTUALLY WILL MOVE THEN THERE'S A LURCH FORWARD. THIS IS A BIG CONCERN, I CAN NOT HAVE ANY TRAFFIC AT ALL ONCOMING IF I NEED TO MAKE A TURN. THIS HAPPENS PULLING ONTO THE INTERSTATE, ALSO FROM A STATIONARY OR ALMOST STATIONARY POSITION. I CAN'T HAVE ANY TRAFFIC COMING THERE'S SUCH A HESITATION. I'M AFRAID THIS WILL RESULT IN A COLLISION. THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN EVERY TIME, I'D SAY A 50/50 CHANCE OF IT HAPPENING. I HAVEN'T HAD AN ACCIDENT YET BECAUSE OF IT. VERY CONCERNED, AFRAID TO LET ANYONE DRIVE THE CAR AS I'M AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND AM VERY CAUTIOUS.

Potential Consequences:
WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN DRIVE, THE VEHICLE HAS A HABIT OF BEING HESITANT WHILE BEING GIVEN GAS. FOR EXAMPLE, AT A STOP SIGN OR TRAFFIC LIGHT, WHEN I GIVE THE VEHICLE SOME GAS TO GET GOING, IT IS UNRESPONSIVE AT THAT MOMENT. IF I GIVE IT A LITTLE MORE GAS, THE VEHICLE JOLTS FORWARD AS IF I FLOORED IT. THIS HAPPENS IN SPORT MODE AS WELL AS ECO MODE, ALTHOUGH I AM ABLE TO GET A LITTLE MORE RESPONSIVENESS IN SPORT MODE. THIS ISSUE HAPPENS MORE ON CITY STREETS SEEING AS THAT'S THE MOST COMMON PLACE WHERE THE VEHICLE IS REQUIRED TO STOP AND GO.

Defect Description:
POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
NOT ALL THE TIMES BUT, HYUNDAI TUCSON 2017 HESITATES WHEN STARTING FROM A STOP. EVEN THOUGH I HIT ACCELERATOR, THE CAR DOES NOT MOVE FOR FEW SECONDS AND SUDDENLY IT SHOOTS LIKE A JET. (STOP AND GO SITUATION) IT HAPPENS USUALLY IN THE MORNING AFTER FIRST START UP. THIS SYMPTOM IS EXACTLY SAME AS 2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON WHICH HAS BEEN ALREADY RECALLED BECAUSE OF "HESITATION WHEN STARTING FROM A STOP"

Defect Description:
POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
I PURCHASED A BRAND NEW 2017 TUSCSON NIGHT AND HAVE EXPERIENCED SERIOUS ISSUES WITH THE DUAL CLUTCH TRANSMISSION. THERE IS A LONG HESITATION WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP, MAKING A TURN OR WHEN "COASTING". THERE HAVE BEEN 4 SPECIFIC OCCASIONS WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT RESPONSIVE AT ALL WHEN PRESSING ON THE GAS. THIS IS PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS WHEN MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN AT A BUSY INTERSECTION WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC COMING AT YOU. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP TWICE NOW AND AM TOLD THEY CANNOT DIAGNOSE A PROBLEM AND THAT WHAT I AM EXPERIENCING IS "TYPICAL FOR A DCT". THIS IS NOT AN ACCEPTABLE RESPONSE AND IT'S A MATTER OF TIME UNTIL THIS ISSUE CAUSES AN ACCIDENT OR DEATH. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AND AM VERY UNHAPPY WITH HYUNDAI'S APPARENT LACK OF CONCERN.

AIR BAGS
Potential Consequences:
AIRBAG INDICATOR ICON STAYED LIT RATHER THAN GOING OUT AFTER A FEW SECONDS WHEN CAR WAS STARTED. PROBLEM IDENTIFIED BY DEALERSHIP AS AIR BAG NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALERSHIP WILL HAVE HAD MY CAR MORE THAN 2 MONTHS BECAUSE THERE ARE NO AIRBAG MECHANISMS IN THE US AND WE ARE WAITING FOR MORE TO BE PRODUCED. THE LIKELY REASON FOR THIS DELAY IS THAT MORE HAVE BEEN USED THAN PLANNED, AND THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUE IF SO MANY NEEDED REPLACEMENT.
