SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
THE DRIVER SIDE BRAKE LIGHTS ARE FAILING INTERMITTENTLY. HOWEVER THE BULBS ARE STILL WORKING. WHEN I SWITCH THE BRAKE LIGHTS BETWEEN THE LEFT AND THE RIGHT, THE PROBLEM STILL REMAINS ON THE LEFT SIDE. HOWEVER THE PROBLEM GOES AWAY AND ALL THE BRAKE LIGHTS ARE WORKING FOR A WHILE. I HAVE NOT FIGURED OUT A PATTERN TO HOW LONG THEY WORK TO HOW LONG THEY DON'T WORK. THERE IS NO PROBLEM WITH THE SWITCH SINCE 2 OUT OF 3 LIGHTS ARE ALWAYS WORKING. IT IS NOT A LIGHT BULB PROBLEM BECAUSE THE FAILURE DID NOT FOLLOW THE BULB AFTER SWITCHING THEM.

Potential Consequences:
WHILE STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN I LET OFF THE BRAKE AND HIT THE GAS AND THE CAR DID NOT WANT TO MOVE IT SEEMED LIKE IT WAS IN NEUTRAL AND ONCE IT STARTS MOVING THE CAR STARTS JERKING AND SLIPS FROM 1 TO 2ND GEAR. SAME THING HAS HAPPENED AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS, AND MERGING INTO TRAFFIC. AFTER TAKING IT TO THE DEALER AND REPROGRAMMING THE COMPUTER IT WILL STILL DO IT. THE CAR HAS 56K MILES ON IT AND IT SEEMS TO BE DOING IT MORE OFTEN NOW. I REALLY DIDN'T THINK ANYONE ELSE HAD THIS ISSUE, BUT AFTER READING UP ON IT, IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE ON THE 1.6 TURBO TUCSON. ALSO THE REAR BRAKE LIGHTS SEEM TO STOP WORKING AND ALL OF A SUDDEN JUST WORK AS IF ANYTHING WAS WRONG. THIS HAS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES AS WELL. I'M AFRAID WE'RE ARE GOING TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THIS.

RECENTLY BOUGHT 2016 HYUNDAI TUCSON LIMITED AND THE CAR HAS 29,000 MILES ON IT. WHEN IN TRAFFIC AND REMOVE MY FOOT FROM THE BRAKE THE CAR WITH SHAKE AS IT IS ABOUT TO STALL OUT AND THEN FINALLY KICK IN AND START MOVING FORWARD NORMALLY. I'VE TRIED TO PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND HAD THE CAR STALL FOR A SECOND BEFORE GOING FORWARD. I DON'T FEEL SAFE PULLING OUT UNLESS I HAVE ENOUGH TIME FOR THE OTHER CAR TO STOP JUST IN CASE THE CAR DOES STALL OUT. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEAL THAT THE GOOD NEWS IS THE CAR IS SUPPOSED TO ACT LIKE THIS.

Potential Consequences:
EVERY DAY MY CAR STUTTERS AS I BEGIN MY DAY TO WORK. IT LAGS IN ACCELERATION AT LEAST ONE TO THREE TIMES A DAY. IT HAS HAPPENED WHEN I ACCELERATE IN RUSH HOUR, TRYING TO GO AFTER A LIGHT TURNS GREEN, OR SPEEDING UP JUST IN GENERAL. I HAVE KIDS IN MY CAR CONSTANTLY BECAUSE OF MY JOB AND I CAN RECALL TWO TIMES THAT I'VE ALMOST BEEN HIT BECAUSE MY CAR DIDN'T DO AS I NEEDED IT TO. IT HAS FREAKED ME OUT AND I WONDER IF I'M GOING TO GET STUCK ONE DAY, IT SPUTTERS AND I DON'T FEEL LIKE MY RIDE HOME IS GUARANTEED. I ALWAYS THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A TURBO THING, BECAUSE I'VE NEVER OWNED A CAR WITH TURBO BUT NOW I'M REALIZING OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THIS ISSUE AND IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ME OR MY DRIVING. IT HAPPENS ON THE FREEWAY, IT HAPPENS ON THE CITY STREET AND IT HAPPENS PULLING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE I'VE OWNED THE CAR AND I'M SAD TO SAY I'VE THOUGHT IT WAS JUST MY MAKE AND MODEL THIS WHOLE TIME.
