NHTSA Owner Complaint Log
This page lists owner-reported complaints filed with NHTSA for the 2017 Hyundai Tucson. Complaints are unverified consumer reports submitted to NHTSA and do not by themselves prove a defect or defect rate.
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. Best Rajinder
The back door is stuck close. All other doors open just fine.
Excessive Oil Consumption
The rear passenger door will not open making getting my child in and out of the car impossible unless she rides in the front passenger seat even though she’s only 7.
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.
My 2017 Hyundai Tucson (91,000 miles) suddenly started having issues shifting into gear. We pulled into traffic and were unable to accelerate for several seconds which created a hazard for both passengers and oncoming vehicles. We took to automotive shop in Clarksville, IN. It was determined that vehicle would not shift into first, third, or fifth gear. The shop informed us this was a common defect with this Make and Model vehicle. We were also informed that only Hyundai Dealerships could service because of specific software and calibration requirements for this specific transmission.
The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while his daughter was driving 60 MPH, the vehicle started shuddering. The check engine warning light and several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The contact’s daughter veered to the side of the roadway. The contact stated that he met his daughter on the side of the roadway and attempted to restart the vehicle several times; however, the vehicle failed to start. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed that the engine had seized. The mechanic referred the contact to the dealer. The vehicle was then towed to the dealer to be diagnosed. The vehicle was not repaired. 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 83,689.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle jerked. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed that the failure was related to the Knock Sensor Detection System. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer and the manufacturer were not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 69,600.
Rear door on driver side suddenly won't open from inside or outside. The electric locks can be heard locking and unlocking but door handles do nothing. There are no messages or alerts. The concern is not being able to get someone out in the event of an emergency. There are many complaints about door actuator failures on the internet on several Hyundai models.
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.
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.
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 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.
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.
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.
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!
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
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.
I am the sole owner of a 2017 Hyundai Tucson Limited, (AWD) with the 1.6L engine, 7 dual clutch transmission, with 46,000 miles as of today Thursday, February 23, 2023. Currently, I am experiencing problems with the engine/transmission stuttering and vibrating, the gears slipping, and with the inability to accelerate when merging into oncoming traffic. In addition, what frightens me the most is when I am applying the gas when driving and the gears stick causing a brief halt in forward motion then, suddenly progressing forward with a quick burst of speed. On many occasions, I have shared my concerns with the dealership from whom I purchased my vehicle from Hyundai of Chantilly, located at 14848 Stonecroft Centre Court, Chantilly, VA 20151. I have been told that the dual clutch transmissions are trash in so many words and I have been quoted a price of $2000.00 to have the transmission replaced. I am at my wit's end and unsure of my rights and to whom should be held accountable. Therefore, I am writing NHTSA for assistance.
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
Car stopped on highway. Car has 105000 miles and i have done required oil changes . Dealer states engine is no good
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.
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.
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.
All the lights in the dashboard are on always, also the check engine light as well, and we found a recall issued for these cars campaign 18-01-026, tucson vacuum pump sealant application/ cap replacement (service campaign T3C) date September 2018
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.
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.
Is there anything being done to Hyundai for all of the vehicles being stolen
Back door does not open without manipulation of pushing in the cable line in the door handle. Cannot exit or enter without doing so
On acceleration, the RPM's rev but transmission fails to respond. Slow to accelerate on lower speed end.
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 DRIVER SIDE DOOR WILL NOT UNLOCK FROM THE OUTSIDE WITHOUT PULLING THE HANDLE A FEW TIMES.
CONSTANTLY JERKING, HESITATING OR STALLING.
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.
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
My car shudders upon accelerating at low speeds and hesitated to respond to the gas pedal at low speeds. This shows itself when taking left hand turns where the car will stall for a second or two while turning before the car finally pops and the acceleration kicks in. The transmission feels unresponsive. This has been happening since my car had 5k miles on it but is worse now that it has 35k miles on it. The dealer says this is a characteristic of the dual clutch transmission, and that it’s normal, but it feels extremely unsafe and not normal for an automatic transmission.
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.
The contact owns a 2017 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while reversing out of the driveway, the vehicle failed to accelerate despite depressing the accelerator pedal numerous times. The contact then firmly depressed the accelerator pedal, and the vehicle experienced an unintended acceleration at approximately 35 MPH. The vehicle drove into the neighbor's yard and crashed into the neighbor's house. No air bags were deployed. No injuries were sustained, and medical attention was not received. A police report was not filed. The contact was able to drive away from the scene. The insurance company had the vehicle towed to an independent mechanic for inspection. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 24,000.
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.
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.
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.
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.
