On Monday, [XXX], I was traveling northbound on [XXX] headed towards Roanoke from Salem at an approximate speed of 65 MPH. At approximately mile marker [XXX], before the exit to [XXX] , the vehicle started to lose power rapidly, and the car began to go into what I perceived as "limp mode" and was shaking. In an attempt to not be stranded on one of busiest and most dangerous highways in VA, I was able to get the vehicle pulled onto the shoulder of the on ramp of [XXX] going towards Roanoke. By this time, the vehicle had completely lost power and was not able to move, so I shut it off. At this point, I was stranded on the side of [XXX] , and extremely busy highway. This was a great safety concern, as the shoulder was very narrow and cars were moving through 2 lanes of traffic with many drivers exceeding 75 mph. My own personal safety was greatly jeopardized with the failure occurring with absolutely no warning and shutting off the car while on [XXX]. The vehicles failure was catastrophic and was undriveable. The vehicle was then towed to a nearby shop. There were no warnings whatsoever before this failure occurred. No engine lights were on beforehand, and the car drove completely fine and has been comprehensively maintained its entire life. The problem of a rod-bearing failure has been confirmed with a local service center, One Stop Automotive in Vinton. The Service Department at Southern Hyundai based in Roanoke VA is refusing to look at the vehicle and submit a claim to Hyundai USA , even though the failure has already been confirmed by a licensed mechanic.

Dear NHTSA, I am the owner of a 2013 Hyundai Tucson. On March 28, 2026, my husband took our vehicle to Keyes Hyundai Van Nuys dealership for a recall repair. However, the repair was not completed because a required part (brake fuse) was not available and had to be ordered. It has now been several weeks, and we have made multiple follow-up calls, but we have not received any update or callback. Because of this delay, my vehicle registration is now suspended, which is causing legal and financial problems. This is a safety recall, and the delay is unacceptable. Service / Customer Number: XXX I am requesting: - Immediate update on the part availability - A confirmed appointment date - Urgent completion of this recall repair Please contact me as soon as possible. Sincerely, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
I am having issues with the main window switch for the second time. 1 out of 3 windows goes down but not back up. Also I took it for a check up and found nothing but the engine is making a loud noise and shakes the car when in drive. I don’t feel safe driving this car sometimes.
The driver side front sidewall developed a shake then a crack appeared in the sidewall about 4 inches long. The other tires show signs of dry rott. They have worn away to nothing in 21k miles less than a year. Can provide mechanic reports of the validity of my car's parts cause ive had a horrible vibration and sound. Turns out the tires are coming apart. And they are refusing to fix it. Said too much of the tires worn away. I have proof that all possible precautions were taken as ive spent a good bit of money having the garage confirm my parts are good trying to track that vibration and sound down. Now im seeing more and more people reporting this. The reviews on these tires are more of the same. Vibration and separation. This isn't right. That warranty is bs especially when I reached out yo kumho 2 times previously. Theyre going to get someone killed. 3 of the 4 tires are showing signs of failure. 21k miles in on a 65k tire balanced and rotated every 5k miles
Driver's rear passenger door. Locked and unable to open. Was functional then won't open. No safety lock engaged. I can hear the locks when trying to unlock with keyfob. Door handles are attached but can not use to open. Poses a safety issue in case of emergency child can not exit through the door. Will have to use other door to exit.
The contact owns a 2013 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while driving and exceeding 30 MPH, the transmission was slipping out of gear. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was towed to a dealer located in Canada, where it was diagnosed that the transmission sensor had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.
FIRSTOF ALL I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED ABOUT THE RECALLS WHICH NEED TO BE COMPLETED. WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY THE ENGINE BLEW UP AND CAR BROKE DOWN. THERE IS A HOLE IN THE ENGINE, I TOWED THE CAR TO A MECHANIC WHO TOLD ME THAT THE ISSUE WITH THE ENGINE OCCURED BECAUSE THE RECALL WAS NOT COMPLETED. I TOWED THE CAR TO HYUNDAI IN PARAMUS WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR. THIS DEALER DOES NOT WANT TO FIX MY CAR CLAIMING I NEED TO PAY A DIAGNOSTIC FEE OF $800. I ADVISED THEM THAT I SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBE FOR THIS FEE AS THE ENGINE FAILED DUE TO MANUFACURER ISSUE. THEY HAVE MY CAR FOR 2 WEEKS NOW AND EVERYTIME I CALL THEY ASK FOR MONEY AND HANG UP THE PHONE. RECALLS SHOULD BE FOR FREE, ITS THE LAW.
The contact owned a 2013 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that the dealer had previously repaired the vehicle under NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V651000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic); however, the failure occurred 72 miles after the recall was repaired. The contact stated that while her daughter was driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle made an abnormal popping sound, and smoke filled the cabin. No warning light was illuminated. The contact's daughter pulled over and safely exited the vehicle. The contact's daughter noticed a small flame coming from under the hood, which spread and engulfed the vehicle. There were no injuries sustained. The fire department arrived on the scene and extinguished the fire. A fire department report was filed. The vehicle was towed to the tow yard and deemed totaled by the insurance company. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 177,407.
I recently had a car accident, which has made dealing with my car issues even more stressful. On April 23rd, I went for a recall appointment at Kerry Hyundai in Florence. While the anti-rust recall was covered, the mechanic informed me that the remedy for my specific issue wasn't available. This was surprising, as I received a letter stating that the remedy for my Tucson, identified by its VIN, was available as of April 3, 2024. This seems like clear negligence, and I need assistance from www.safercar.gov. Here is the message I sent and the responses from the Kerry representative. Unfortunately, I can't attach the screenshot. **Recall Notice:** - Date: 2024-04-03 - Manufacturer recall issued - NHTSA: #23V651000 - Recall: #251 ABS FUSE REPLACEMENT (VARIOUS MODELS) - Status: Remedy Available I urgently need an appointment before 9 am at the soonest available time for my 2013 Tucson recall. Despite my visit for another recall and this recall on April 23rd, the agent's responses were negligent. They claimed the Tucson is not under Hyundai Recall Number: 251 as of April 23, 2024, which contradicts the recall notice. Here are the responses: - "So I just checked it will still stay on there because there's no fix for this vehicle yet." - "It's only for the Sonatas and Santa Fe Sport." - "The vehicle listed in this is how we can proceed but the Tucson is not yet available."

The electrical in my car is slowly failing, causing problems opening 3 out of 4 windows in the vehicle. My car is currently unsafe to drive (I am a mother with a young child and I will not risk their safety). I also fear the acceleration in the vehicle is also defective, as when I'm driving it will revv the engine and shoot the RPM meter up (even when my foot is off thr pedal). I do not believe my vehicle can be repaired at this point and I cannot go without a vehicle any longer. I cannot afford to have it towed to get inspected, and I cannot drive it to a dealership.

UNKNOWN. I am writing to express my dissatisfaction regarding Hyundai Motor America. They have told us our car is subject to catching fire and not to park in in our garage or near other dwellings. We have contacted them numerous times and they keep pushing off a date for repair. Now they say, “maybe June.” Isn’t there a timeline for this? For a car to catch fire, 8 months seems excessive to me. The Consumer Protection Division of the NHTSA has indicated that I should contact you to let you know that I wish to continue this case. The information they gave me is below: Re: Hyundai Motor America****** File No: [XXX] Thank you for your help.

I am writing to express my serious concern regarding a safety issue with my Hyundai vehicle, and the apparent lack of resolution from Hyundai despite repeated attempts to seek assistance. Last year, I received a notification from Hyundai about a critical safety issue concerning the EMERGENCY FIRE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM ("ABS") MODULES, which could potentially leak brake fluid internally and lead to an electrical short over time. This electrical short poses a significant risk of engine compartment fires, both while the vehicle is parked and during operation. Naturally, upon receiving this alarming notice, I expected Hyundai to promptly address and rectify this potentially life-threatening issue. Unfortunately, my concerns have only heightened as my local mechanic recently discovered a leakage in my vehicle, which aligns with the exact problem outlined in the aforementioned notification. This discovery has left me deeply troubled and anxious about the safety of my vehicle and the potential risks it poses to my well-being and that of others on the road. Despite my numerous attempts to seek assistance and resolution from Hyundai, I have encountered nothing but frustration and disappointment. Every time I reach out to Hyundai's customer service, I am met with vague responses and reassurances that they are unable to provide a solution to the problem. This lack of urgency and accountability on Hyundai's part is unacceptable, especially considering the gravity of the safety issue at hand.
The contact owns a 2013 Hyundai Tucson. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V651000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The contact stated while his son was driving at an undisclosed speed and depressing the brake pedal to come to a complete stop, the vehicle failed to respond and crashed into the rear of another stopped vehicle. There was no warning light illuminated. The air bags did not deploy. The contact stated that the front end of the vehicle was damaged, and coolant started leaking due to the collision. The contact's son and the other driver did not sustain any injuries. The vehicle could not be driven and was towed to an auto collision shop. A police report was filed. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The failure mileage was approximately 151,000. VIN tool confirms parts not available.
We experienced engine failure of a 2013 Hyundai Tucson on 2/20/24. There were no warning lights displayed on the instrument panel. There was an unidentified noise and a loss of power/compression. We are in the process of learning the difference between a Service Campaign and a Recall Notification and I can’t say we understand it yet. We were not notified nor aware of potential engine failure issues. The research we’ve been able to obtain regarding Service Campaign 966 (“SC966”) appears to exclude the 2013 Tucson model unless it has a Theta II engine. The service department at Dick Smith Hyundai stated that if we would have had our car serviced at the dealership, we would have been informed of SC966. As we are the second owner of an eleven-year-old vehicle, we do not typically have it serviced at a dealership. Oddly enough, we received a notification regarding the knock sensor on 3/18/24 almost one month after we contacted Hyundai Customer Support and after the vehicle was towed to Dick Smith dealership and we spoke with the service department. We have been informed by the local dealership (Dick Smith Hyundai service department) that it is unlikely that the engine will be replaced under the Hyundai Class Action Lawsuit, or any open Recalls and it will be 2-4 months before a decision is rendered regarding the matter. We are also being charged a diagnostic fee for their services of approximately $200.00. Regardless of the recall coverage, our experience with this vehicle engine seems to mimic the exact same symptoms and issues as the Make/Models that are included in the published Recall notice by Kia/Hyundai, and we would like to make this known to protect other consumers and to see if there is any recourse and/or assistance for us.

On 9/26/23 Recall #23V651000 was issued for my 2013 Hyundai Tucson. As of 2/9/24 the remedy is not available. How long does NHTSA give the auto maker to remedy the recall? Four months, to me, seems plenty of time to fix the problem. If you could let me know when the remedy should happen I would appreciate it. Thanks

The contact's father was driving the vehicle at approximately 65 MPH when numerous warning lights illuminated. The contact stated that her father had observed smoke being emitted from under the hood. The father pulled the vehicle off the highway and stopped the vehicle. The contact stated that her father opened the hood and saw that a fire had started in the engine compartment. The fire department was called and extinguished the flames with water. The fire was confined to the engine compartment. The contact had the vehicle towed to her residence.

I was driving on the highway and was notified by passing motorists that there was smoke coming from my vehicle, I proceeded to pull to the shoulder and parked my vehicle. When parked, I noticed flames coming from the engine compartment and under the vehicle. I proceeded to get as far away from the car and that when the fire became enraged and fully engulfed my vehicle. The fire department arrived and distinguished the fire.
I am writing about the recall on the Hyundai vehicles that apparently are at risk for catching fire. Hyundai sent a letter that told us to park it away from our house and garage structures. We got this letter in early November and I called customer service as well as emailed to find out when we would hear about a fix. First of all, to get to a human being takes a minimum of 4 minutes. Then, they can’t tell me a darn thing. I found out from my first contact that we would hear something by the “end of the month.” That was in November. Well, November came and went and it has started to snow. No one wants to park outside nor do we care to have the house and car catch fire. I called and emailed again on December 2nd and the line was, “Well, we just don’t have a fix yet. Keep waiting.” If this is so serious, why can’t someone figure this out? Surely they have engineers working for them who have some idea as to how to fix this. It can’t be that difficult. Take out the parts that catch fire and replace them with good parts. It is my feeling that they are looking a cheap way out since this involves so many vehicles. Next, I attempted to reach the corporate office through an email. They contacted my husband on December 5th and offered him $100. What are we supposed to do with that? We need the car fixed. The snowplow cannot plow the driveway with his car outside of the garage. I really need to know what the timeline is on this. I am so disgusted with the lack of communication and the poor customer service. Please, is there anything at all that can be done?

The contact owns a 2013 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, she smelled an anti-freeze odor throughout the vehicle. The contact then stated that the vehicle inadvertently decelerated while the accelerator pedal was depressed and hesitated at approximately 40 MPH. The transmission warning light and the traction control warning light intermittently illuminated. The vehicle was taken to Midas where it was diagnosed that the torque converter had failed and needed to be replaced; however, the vehicle was then taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the transmission failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact stated that she received the Warranty Coverage Campaign: TXXM (Powertrain). The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed that the warranty was limited, and the vehicle was not covered. The failure mileage was approximately 86,000.
I have owned the vehicle for 10 months and it had about 80,000 miles on it. The engine light started flashing 2 days ago. The vehicle started running rough, so I drove 10 miles back home at no more than 40 mph. I took the vehicle to my trusted mechanic. He conducted a diagnostic test & received a code 1326, which meant there was a vibration indicating excessive connecting rod bearing wear. He advised me this is a common issue with this 2.4 liter engine. I had the vehicle towed to the dealer. While at the dealer, a mechanic came in with a 2013 Hyundai Sonata. We started speaking and found out the Sonata he brought in was having the same issue and is also a 2.4 litre four cylinder engine, which produced a 1326 code during a diagnostic test.

On September 22 2023, I checked to see if my car had a recall item on it, and there is a recall involving the antilock brake system. After 2 months the resolution is the following “REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE.OWNERS CAN CONTINUE DRIVING THESE VEHICLES; HOWEVER, HYUNDAI RECOMMENDS PARKING THEIR VEHICLES OUTSIDE AND AWAY FROM STRUCTURE UNTIL THE RECALL REMEDY IS AVAILABLE AND COMPLETED”. Additionally, my car has had 4 recalls, which has been completed. However, driving a car in which the remedy is to park away from structures when I live in a condo is worrisome and feel as though there should be a remedy for the safety of myself and my family.
