Potential Consequences:
IN MY CASE ALL THREE DOORS WERE LOCKED AND COULD NOT OPEN IN STATIONARY, IN MOTION, ON A CITY STREET OR HIGHWAY, TURNING OR OFF. IT STARTED WITH DRIVER'S DOOR NOT OPENING FROM OUTSIDE 1ST AND WHEN I UNLOCKED USING MY CAR KEY IT WOULDN'T OPEN. I HAD TO OPEN THE DOOR FROM PASSENGER SIDE IN ORDER TO GET TO THE DRIVER'S SIDE. THEN BOTH BACK PASSENGER LEFT AND RIGHT DOORS WOULD NOT OPEN FROM INSIDE OR OUTSIDE. THIS CREATED MAJOR CONCERN AND SAFETY ISSUE SINCE I COULDN'T HAVE ANYONE SITTING IN THE BACK SINCE NO ONE COULD GET IN OR GET OUT. I TOOK MY CAR TO DEALERSHIP AND SINCE MY CAR HAD 62,000 MILES IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE HYUNDAI WARRANTY. THEY REPLACED THE DRIVER DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR FOR $392 IN 12/13/2019. ONE MONTH LATER IN 1/13/2020 I STARTED HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH BACK RIGHT PASSENGER DOOR AND ONE WEEK LATER IN 1/18/20 I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH BACK LEFT PASSENGER DOOR. THIS TIME BOTH BACK DOORS WERE LOCKED FROM INSIDE AND OUTSIDE SO NO ONE WAS ABLE TO GET IN OR OUT. I TOOK MY CAR TO AAMCO AND THEY HAD TO REMOVE THE DOORS TRIM & SEALS TO GET DOORS OPEN AND REPLACED BOTH DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS FOR $862.79. THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED WITH MY OTHER CARS AND IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN WHEN YOU ARE LOCKED INSIDE THE CAR AND CAN'T GET OUT. THERE HAS BEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE REGARDING THE DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS NOT FUNCTIONING AND REQUIRING REPLACEMENT. I'M HOPING NHTSA CAN ADDRESS THIS SAFETY CONCERN AND ASK HYUNDAI TO RECALL AND REPLACE THE PARTS. I KNOW SOON I WILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MY TRUNK DOOR AND FRONT RIGHT DOOR. GREATLY APPRECIATE YOUR HELP IN THIS MATTER. THE PARTS ARE POOR QUALITY AND NOT DESIGNED TO LAST AND THIS CREATES SAFETY CONCERN.

MY 2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON ECO DCT HAS A DANGEROUS RANDOM "SHUDDER/HESITATION" SAFETY PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED.*DT A "SHUDDER / HESITATION" RANDOMLY OCCURS AT SLOWER SPEEDS. I'VE BROUGHT UP MY CONCERN EACH TIME I HAVE HAD MY VEHICLE IN FOR REGULARLY SCHEDULED SERVICE. I HAVE ONLY 28000 MILES ON IT. THE MECHANICS REPORT THAT "IT DIDN'T OCCUR FOR THEM, OR SHOW-UP ON THEIR COMPUTER, SO THEY SAY THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT". I'VE EXPLAINED EACH TIME THAT IT OCCURS RANDOMLY, AND MOSTLY AT SLOW SPEED WHEN SLOWLY COMING TO A STOP, WHEN PARKING PULLING IN OR OUT OF A SPACE OR DRIVEWAY, AT STOP SIGNS EITHER SLOWLY STOPPING, OR PROCEEDING FORWARD AT A LIGHT OR INTERSECTION, AND SOMETIMES WHEN TRYING TO TURN INTO THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC. I AM POSITIVE THAT HYUNDAI IS VERY AWARE OF WHAT THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE 2016 TUCSON ECO DCT. I RECENTLY RECEIVED A LETTER FROM HYUNDAI REFERRING TO A 'PROPOSED CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT', BUT IT WAS EXPIRED ALREADY ! I MENTIONED THERE WERE OVER 300 COMPLAINTS OF A SIMILAR "SHUDDER / HESITATION" ON ONE WEB SITE ALONE! THIS IS A DANGEROUS PROBLEM THAT COULD RESULT IN A REAR END OR INTERSECTION COLLISION BECAUSE OF THE "SHUDDER / HESITATION" THAT OCCURS RANDOMLY. I HAVE PASSENGER WITNESSES AS WELL. THERE IS DEFINATELY A DANGEROUS SAFETY DEFECT CAUSING A "SHUDDER" IN THE 2016 TUCSON ECO DCT THAT NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED. I WAS GIVEN A HYUNDAI COMPLAINT DEPT. NUMBER TO CALL, AND I REPORTED THE PROBLEM. THE CLAIM ADMINISTRATOR SEEMED QUITE AWARE OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS. HE GAVE ME A CLAIM NUMBER, AND SAID HE WOULD CALL ME BACK MONDAY, TO 'SET UP ANOTHER SERVICE APPOINTMENT', AND "ARRANGE FOR A SPECIALIST" TO BE THERE. I RECEIVED A CALL ON WEDNESDAY, AND WAS NOW INFORMED "THERE WAS NOTHING MORE HE COULD DO", AND HE WAS "CLOSING OUT MY CASE NUMBER, AND SUGGESTED I JUST BRING IT TO THE DEALER AGAIN", AND RE-FILE A NEW CLAIM# !

Potential Consequences:
HELLO, I BOUGHT A USED 2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON ECO LESS THEN A MONTH AGO FROM AUTONATION THAT HAD ONLY 40,000 MILES ON IT. WITHIN 2 WEEKS OF BUYING THE VEHICLE, THE CHECK ENGINE TURNED ON FOR A P259F TROUBLE CODE FOR A TURBOCHARGER POSITION SENSOR THAT I HAD GOT FROM USING AUTONATION'S VEHICLE APP. NATURALLY , I CALLED AUTONATION TO HAVE MY CAR FIXED, BUT THE ENGINE LIGHT HAD GONE OFF BEFORE I BROUGHT MY IN VEHICLE IN FOR REPAIRS. WHEN I DID BRING MY VEHICLE IN TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY CONFIRMED THAT THERE WAS A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON FROM MY TURBO, BUT THAT IT HAD GONE OFF AND THAT THE CAR WAS FUNCTIONING NORMALLY, AND TO GO TO A HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP FOR A SPECIAL DIAGNOSTIC IF THE ISSUE CONSISTED. ON THE SAME DAY OF GETTING MY CAR BACK, I STARTED NOTICING ENGINE PERFORMANCE ISSUES, MY ACCELERATION WOULD BE AFFECTED BY 1 TO 2 SECONDS WHERE THE CAR WOULD NOT GO, AND WHEN IT WOULD FINALLY NOTICE THE THROTTLE IT WOULD JUMP KICK THE CAR. ALSO THE WORST OF ALL, IT ALSO CUT OUT AT ONE POINT WHERE IT DID NOT WANT TO GIVE ANY SORT OF THROTTLE AT ALL, I NEEDED TO HAVE MY FOOT ALL THE WAY DOWN ON THE PEDAL TO JUST GO 30 MPH. DURING THAT TIME I NOTICED THAT THE ENGINE WOULD BE REVVING HIGH WHILE NO SPEED WAS BEING GAINED, AND NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS WHERE GOING OFF EITHER. BECAUSE OF THAT, I WAS ALMOST INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT WHERE I COULD NOT ACCELERATE OUT OF AN INTERSECTION WHEN MAKING A TURN. WHAT MAKES ME BELIEVE THIS IS THE TURBO ELECTRICAL PROBLEM, IS THAT THE WAY I GOT MY CAR TO ACCELERATE NORMALLY IS THAT I PARKED IT AND RESTARTED IT, AFTER THAT IT STARTED ACCELERATING NORMALLY, BUT AT TIMES THE ACCELERATION WOULD STILL BE AFFECTED.
