2012 Hyundai Tucson owner complaints

Driving on highway engine cuts shuts off. I let the car roll to the first off ramp in which I could not start the car again. Stuck in middle lane of exit until I got help to push car to side of the road.

Brand new car- a few days after purchasing and driving the car, noticed car was not driving right. Several symptoms became noticeable. Car would jerk when accelerating and braking. Cars pick up was delayed and had a very uncomfortable vibration, while in idle and while driving, to the point of getting nauseous while driving in the car. Took car to Hyundai service and told them of symptoms and my concerns of something not right with the car. The mechanics felt the problems I explained above and said something was wrong, now had to figure out what exactly. Several tests were done on the car but nothing showed up on electrical grid. Service had to call a higher tech out in california to see what to do next. California tech made them run several tests, all this took more then 2 weeks until the

The engine started making noise and caught on fire. It was running.

While traveling on the highway my husband and I started to hear a loud clanking noise under our hood. We barely made it off the next exit, with vehicles having to quickly go around us because our speed was slowing down and then vehicle died, we were stranded in the heat on the side of the road with our dogs. After speaking with Hyundai corporate they told us to have it towed to the nearest Hyundai dealership. We did and a case was opened with Hyundai. It was diagnosed at the Hyundai dealership as premature engine failure due to no fault of ours but the warranty department denied our claim because we are second owners. The engine in our car has been recalled in other models but Hyundai is trying to hide the fact that it extends to the tucson. It is extremely dangerous to not recall and info

I received a safety recall on nov. 27th on the vehicle. I made an appt with a hyudai dealer for service. On dec. 2 I was driving to the dealership on a city road, after accelerating from a stoplight stop, the engine blew. Luckily we were all at a low speed as the light had just gone green. Dealership says it threw a rod through block and sent me a picture. This car has the theta ii engine. My model and year have not been involved in the recalls nor lawsuits for the issue the engine is having in other models, but this engine had only 80k, has been regularly serviced, and I cant imagine what else would cause such a thing other than a manufacturing defect like the one I am reading about with the debris.

Three months ago, I was driving my car when the engine shut down while I was driving on the highway. I was able to pull over safely, however, I could have been in a fatal accident as my engine could no longer accelerate while I was on the highway. My car has been sitting in the Hyundai dealership since September 9 when the incident occurred, with Hyundai stating it can take 6-8 months. This has since placed my financial situation at a personal difficulty as the dealership has not been able to even diagnose car yet as they’ve stated, many other cars have the same issue that are ahead of mine. I tried reaching out to Hyundai customer support to get a rental car, but they said they cannot provide one until a proper diagnosis has been met so I would have to pay out-of-pocket until then, which

I own a Hyundai tucson 2012. On december 31, 2012, we took the vehicle to the dealership for regular maintenance and reported that we have experienced several instances of sudden unintended acceleration (sua) (I.e., the RPM raced up to 4,000 rpms when at idle and accelerator was not pressed). The dealership could not duplicate/verify concern. On november 10, 2013, again we expressed the dealership the same concern; however, we received the same response as on december 31, 2012. Throughout this year we have experienced sua several times, the most recent one last night, when while in motion the car unexpectedly accelerated its RPM. I believe this is a seriously safety concern which Hyundai should address immediately by investigating the problem and issuing a safety recall to its custom
