The problem began in mid to late April 2024 with the Tucson shuddering in the driveway while moving forward slowly. This vehicle has a 1.6L turbo with a dual clutch transmission. The mileage was around 96,000 miles. Once on the road, it ran fine. Approximately a month later the check engine light came on and it began hesitating upon acceleration. It would change to the next gear, accelerate and slam me against the seat! Whenever I try to accelerate too fast, it hesitates and loses power until it "catches" and starts speeding up. This is very dangerous especially when accelerating from a complete stop or after a turn. It also has trouble going up a hill and has actually died out 3 times while attempting to go uphill at a low speed. I am the second owner and it is out of warranty. I have contacted the local Hyundai dealer but their shop does not have a very good reputation and is always backed up for 3+ weeks. They also charge $230 or more to hook up their code reader!! I've already taken it to 2 other shops where that was done at no charge. The code was P073F - Unable to engage gear 1. Of course the only option I've been given is to replace the transmission for $3000 or have it rebuilt for $4100. This problem makes it very dangerous to continue driving it. I get the oil changed every 5000 miles. Of course it's almost paid for but I'm afraid if I try to trade it in I'll be lucky to even get enough to pay it off. I have been endlessly researching this online for recalls, updates or remedies. I want to know if replacing the entire transmission is the only option or is it a component of the transmission or a computer module that is the cause. How do I know the new transmission won't do the same thing?
The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while driving approximately 72 MPH, the check engine warning light illuminated and there was a knocking sound coming from the engine. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was recommended that the vehicle be taken to another dealer. The vehicle was taken to another dealer however, the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact stated that on another occasion while driving approximately 60 MPH, there was a popping sound and smoke before the engine exploded. The vehicle was pulled to the side of the road. The vehicle was towed to the residence. The vehicle was towed to another dealer where it was diagnosed with engine failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact discovered Technical Service Bulletin: 20-01-024H-1, however, the vehicle was not included. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 114,282.
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.
The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while driving 55 MPH, the vehicle started to lose motive power. The contact stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact pulled the vehicle over to the side of the road and was able to restart the vehicle after 5 minutes. The contact attempted to drive the vehicle to the residence but had to continually restart the vehicle. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V727000 (Engine). The local dealer was contacted and informed the contact that there were no engine recalls associated with the vehicle. The contact also stated that the dealer would not repair the vehicle due to the vehicle being over the warranty coverage. The manufacturer was not made of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 140,000.
My engine began consuming oil at a faster rate. My miles per gallon decreased. Then while driving, my engine lost power, and then the check engine light came on without warning. Pulled into the closet mechanic (less than 2 miles) and mechanic found that I had lost all compression in cylinder 3 of my engine and that there was a large carbon build up. My engine just failed. I bring my Tucson in every 5000 miles for service.
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 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 contact stated while driving 70 MPH, the check engine warning light illuminated the vehicle started to stall. The vehicle was moved over to the shoulder and there was smoke coming from the engine. The dealer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000.
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.
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!
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.
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.
The paint just started chipping off slowly
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.
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.
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

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".
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.
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.
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.
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.
Back end of the glass roof shattered unexpectedly while driving down the highway at 65mph. No visible debris or rocks just a loud bang of the glass suddenly breaking.
The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds or accelerating from idle, there was a knocking sound coming from the engine. While accelerating from idle, the vehicle failed to exceed 30 MPH, requiring that the driver slowly accelerate and gradually increase the speed. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a certified mechanic who diagnosed the vehicle with transmission failure. The mechanic replaced the brakes and tires. The vehicle was then taken to the dealer, who diagnosed failures with the muffler assembly and catalytic converter related to the failure to accelerate. The failure persisted, and the vehicle was returned to the dealer, who confirmed the noises coming from the engine while the accelerator pedal was depressed, with a burning odor, and oil issues. After five visits to the dealer, an oil leak from the drain plug was determined. The drain plug and oil pan were replaced a year and six months later. The vehicle continued to fail to accelerate properly, making it difficult to drive uphill. The vehicle was taken to another dealer, Niagara Hyundai of Grand Island (1910 Alvin Rd, Grand Island, NY 14072), who confirmed that the vehicle was not safe to drive. The catalytic converter was replaced again but the failure persisted, and there was no engine oil in the vehicle. While driving 65 MPH, the vehicle started shaking. The contact pulled over to the side of the road and waited approximately 10–15 minutes before continuing to drive at 50 MPH. The contact inspected the vehicle and noticed that the engine was hot. The vehicle was towed back to the second dealer, who performed an oil consumption test requiring the contact to drive 1,000 miles. The test determined the engine oil level was extremely low. The dealer suggested a chamber cleaning, but the request was still pending. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and opened a case. The failure mileage was approximately 63,000.
Car just stopped in the middle of highway.
Unknown the car just start malfunctioning
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.
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 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.
Car had smoke engine overheating this is the 3rd engine I got sick from the smoke I don’t feel safe in that car
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
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.
The front passenger door will not open from the outside. I press the unlock button several times, but it still won't open. I have to either open it from the inside or continuously pull on the outside handle lightly a few times to get the door open. I had the same issue with the driver side door. Obviously there is some kind of defect with the latch/actuator/locking system on these vehicles, and it needs to be addressed as it's a safety concern.
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.
Driver/ Front door latch does not open from the exterior. This is a problem on many Hyundai Tuscons from 2016-2021. Hyundai has not addressed the problem. This issue was recalled on their previous models - but not the current ones. This is a safety issue if there is an accident first responders have to break the glass to get to the passenger.
With eco/turbo boost engaged, acceleration is intermittently delayed 2-4 seconds. This issue has endured for the last 2 years since I have owned this vehicle. After pulling onto a very busy main road, with power boost engaged and accelerator was fully engaged (to the floor) with NO response, the vehicle stays in place. After looking online, it appears that hundreds of other Hyundai customers have complained about this same defect, boiling it down to a dual clutch transmission. I took my vehicle to the dealership but they cannot repair this unless the acceleration delay happens while being test driven. This is a dangerous and unsafe feature, considering the vehicle has a eco boost system.
Brake lights keep failing after three months, have gone through multiple bulbs and harnesses. Right side will blow and then it switches to the left side.
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.
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.
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.
AIRBAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY AT UTILITY POLE COLLISION.
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!
Rear driver side door will not open from the inside or out. Front driver side door intermittently will not open from the outside. Unable to get children out of car is a serious risk. Many reports online about same issues with this vehicle.
Transmission is slipping or not adjusting when driving. Very slow acceleration and it feels like the gears are not shifting properly

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!
The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that heavy, black smoke would emit from the tailpipe upon the start of the vehicle without warning. Upon inspection of the vehicle, the contact discovered that the oil level was low. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where a diagnostic test was performed, and the diagnostic test showed that the vehicle was consuming excessive amounts of engine oil.
