VISIBILITY/WIPER

Potential Consequences:

The middle panel of the panorama roof exploded spontaneously while I was driving at 50 mph on the highway. The car shook with the explosion. I pulled over to find a gaping hole in my roof and glass shards resting on the shade. This caused the shade to hammock down towards the driver and passenger seats making it unsafe to drive.

Defect Description:

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Potential Consequences:

I am filing a complaint regarding a persistent and disruptive software feature in my leased 2024 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid. The vehicle has an integrated "Red Light Camera Warning" that plays an audible voice alert every time I approach or pass an intersection with a red light camera. Despite numerous attempts through the dealership and Hyundai corporate support, according to Hyundai, the alert is part of their Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) and is considered a safety feature. However, this is not a safety feature, it is a ticket avoidance alert, and the frequent and repetitive alerts create a distraction from safe driving. Key safety concerns: The alert interrupts active phone calls, audio, and music playback at every flagged intersection, regardless of whether I am obeying traffic laws. This forces the driver’s attention away from the road to deal with the disruption or attempt to resume audio. The alert is often triggered in rapid succession when driving through urban areas with multiple camera-monitored intersections, increasing driver stress and reducing focus. Competing manufacturers (Toyota, Honda, Ford, etc.) allow drivers to disable this feature, but Hyundai claims they do not. There is video documentation showing that Hyundai vehicles are capable of disabling this feature via a simple toggle [XXX]. Hyundai’s unwillingness to offer this basic option infringes on the driver’s ability to maintain focus and control over their in-vehicle environment. I respectfully request that NHTSA investigate whether this alert poses a safety hazard due to distraction and urge Hyundai to provide an option for owners to permanently disable or mute it. Thank you for your attention to this matter. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Potential Consequences:

My a/c system has a strong mold/mildew smell. The dealership flushed the system and said a bunch of black mold came out. It has been 3 months and the issue is back. It can’t possibly be safe and healthy to be constantly breathing in mold spores. I have seen a ton of other owners complaining about the same issue. I definitely think the a/c drain design is faulty in some regard.

AIR BAGS

Potential Consequences:

My wife and I purchased a 2024 Hyundai Tucson in June.  Since February 28, 2025 the SRS indicator lights have come on twice. Hyundai replaced the airbag twice.  In March, the emergency brake system red lights illuminated, and the car came to an abrupt stop.  Luckily, there were  no Cars behind me.  Seconds later, the car resumed, and the lights disappeared. Hyundai dealership took the car in and returned it in two hours noting they could not duplicate. Several days ago, the same thing happened with the emergency brake system. Driving at approximately 40 mph the car slammed on brakes and the dash illuminated again.  No cars behind me. The dealership returned the car once again, noting they could not duplicate.   The car has less than 8000 miles.  I won’t allow my wife to drive more than 10 miles alone.  It’s unsafe. The manual states the car is not to be driven with any of the sys indicators on and to do so would cause serious injury or damage to the car.   I will send attachments of invoices, NHTSA complaints and Hyundai manual info about unsafe condition.

SEAT BELTS

Potential Consequences:

My grandchild just went from a car seat to a booster seat. The back seatbelt buckle is so recessed that you cannot buckle it without 20 minutes of fighting with it! This is a major problem because a child could not get themselves buckled. And it takes an adult 20 minutes to try and buckle the shoulder belt into The seat buckle because it’s so recessed in the backseat. I looked on the Internet to see if there was a way to loosen the belts or extend them from the back and there is nothing so I went to a Hyundai Tucson forum and I see there have been many complaints About the recessed seat buckle not being accessible. This is a major concern for anyone transporting children and their grand grandchildren. I’ve already complained to Hyundai about the car randomly shutting off. Hyundai needs to put out a fix for this or provide Hyundai owners with some kind of extension for that buckle. I also understand that taking it into the dealership didn’t help, because they couldn’t buckle it either.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS

Potential Consequences:

As I am driving on the Garden State Parkway on sunny days and rainy days at approx 70-75 mph the Emergency Braking System notification activated on the dashboard in red, a noise activates and the car feels like it is going to stop short. This seems to occur about one and a half hours into my ride There are no cars in front of me or directly next to me. This occurs randomly and has happened seven or eight times since I leased the car in December 2024. It is very scary and the service techs at the dealership where I leased it cannot duplicate the occurrence because it is random. I feel unsafe driving the car because I am afraid at some point the car may stop on the highway. As it is now it feels like it is going to stop because it slows down.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING

Potential Consequences:

Automatic headlight system causes the vehicle headlights to turn on and off during daylight conditions. The LCD display in the dashboard also dims to the point that the information presented cannot be read. This typically happens on bright, sunny days with a clear sky. Vehicle has been to the dealership in excess of seven times where they've made multiple attempts to repair it. The light sensor behind the windshield has been replaced. The body control module has been replaced. The technician also tried to make modifications to the light sensor, but the problem persists. There are a number of other instances of this exact issue involving Hyundai Tucsons, Santa Fe. and Santa Cruz vehicles shown on the NHTSA site, and also when searching other sites online. Dealer technician has repeatedly documented that the problem exists. Dealer tech reported that the Tech at the Hyundai helpline suggested that the auto headlight feature not be used as a resolution. While not a solution under any conditions, even with auto headlight feature turned to off, the dashboard displays continue to dim during the day. The flashing headlights represent a serious safety issue as when following another vehicle, that driver may misinterpret the flashing headlight problem as an aggressive gesture and trigger a road rage type response. The call taker I spoke with at Hyundai when I opened a customer service case said that he personally had that very issue with another driver due to flashing headlights.
