Defect Description:
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Vehicle was running exceptionally well until a software update was applied at the dealership. Hyundai has no recalls / safety campaigns on file for my vehicle make and model and was adamant that no updates should have been applied. On or shortly after this time, vehicle performance became really poor. mpg per tank dropped to around 22 / 23 mpg highway (normally 27-29 mpg), acceleration performance was reduced, and it felt as thought vehicle had issues accelerating at time. Shifting on hills became an issue as well as the vehicle did not appear to properly shift into the next gear when necessary. I was notified after purchase of the vehicle that it should be parked outside of my garage due to possible fire concerns even though my vehicle was supposedly not affected. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Lack of power / acceleration when needed affected getting onto the highway and shifting lanes. Vehicle rode almost like brake was being continuously applied and slowing down the vehicle at times. Lack of power and improper shifting almost caused an accident or two. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? No, dealer was unable to reproduce after a quick 10 minute test drive on flat land. I started keeping records and screenshots afterwards. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? No. Hyundai refuses to contact me back regarding these issues. During this time, an email was sent globally indicating that Hyundai BlueLink would no longer support a feature that independently slowed / stopped vehicles in case of theft. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No warning lights have appeared on this vehicle.

Potential Consequences:
Forward collision warning is set at "early", but I only get 1 out of dozen incidents where I feel the warning should be triggered. Often I had to hit the brake hard enough to cause chest pains for me & my passenger. So, the injury below is a minor one for now, but may easily become quite extensive.

IN THE INITIAL NHTSA TUCSON RECALL, DATED SEPTEMBER 4, 2020, THE ONLY 2021MY TUCSON VEHICLES TO BE INCLUDED WERE THOSE MANUFACTURED THROUGH 3/31/20 AND SPECIFICALLY ON 6/23/20. ONCE THE PROBLEM WITH THE ABS MODULE HAD BEEN IDENTIFIED AND CONFIRMED, AND THE RECALL ISSUED, HYUNDAI CONTINUED TO MANUFACTURE, AND SELL TUCSON VEHICLES WITH THE SAME KNOWN SAFETY FLAW. RATHER THAN SHUT DOWN THE PRODUCTION LINE UNTIL CORRECTIONS COULD BE MADE, HYUNDAI CONTINUED TO 'INVESTIGATE' THE PROBLEM WHILE 2021MY TUCSON VEHICLES MANUFACTURED AFTER THE END OF AUGUST 2020 CONTINUED TO BE SOLD. HYUNDAI CONTINUED TO SELL THESE CARS WHILE AT THE SAME TIME ADMITTING IN NHTSA DOCUMENTS THAT THE COMPANY WAS 'UNSUCCESSFUL IN DETERMINING THE EXACT ROOT CAUSE' OF THE PROBLEM. INSTEAD, THE COMPANY 'CONCLUDED THAT THE RISK OF AN ELECTRICAL SHORT RESULTING IN A FIRE COULD BE MITIGATED [NOT ELIMINATED] BY LIMITING THE OPERATING CURRENT IN THE ABS MODULE THROUGH A LOWER AMPERAGE FUSE.' IT WASN'T UNTIL NOVEMBER OF 2020 THAT A PRODUCTION CHANGE WAS IMPLEMENTED. THEN, IN DECEMBER OF 2020, THE SEPTEMBER RECALL WAS EXPANDED TO INCLUDE VEHICLES MANUFACTURED THROUGH NOVEMBER 2020.

HYUNDAI TUCSON ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM MODULES CORRODE INTERNALLY AND CAUSE AN ELECTRICAL SHORT AND FIRE. THEY ISSUED A RECALL, AND THEIR NOTICES SAY IT WILL TAKE LESS THEN ONE HOUR TO PERFORM INSTALLATION OF NEW ABS MODULES, YET ALL DEALERSHIPS SAY IT TAKES HALF A DAY. I JUST VISITED A DEALERSHIP WHO DIDN'T EVEN HAVE THE PARTS TO DO IT!!! AND EACH SERVICE DEPARTMENT ONLY SCHEDULE 5-7 RECALLS PER DAY. SO ALL DEALERSHIPS ARE BOOKED FOR MONTHS AND MONTHS OUT. LEAVING US ALL WITH THIS VERY DANGEROUS DEFECT, THREATENING TO BURN DOWN OUR HOMES. THIS IS NOT A RECALL BEING PERFORMED IN A TIMELY MATTER CONSIDERING HOW POTENTIALLY SERIOUS IT IS. THEY SHOULD BE BANNED FROM SELLING ANY MORE VEHICLES UNTIL THIS PROBLEM IS COMPLETELY FIXED. SO WHAT ARE ALL OF US CONSUMERS WHO CAN'T GET THIS RECALL FIXED SUPPOSED TO DO IF OUR VEHICLES SUDDENLY BURSTS INTO FLAMES?
