Defect Description:
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
I leased a brand new 2025 Hyundai Tucson on March 15, 2025, with fewer than 10 miles on the odometer. Shortly after driving an additional 10 miles, the vehicle’s screen malfunctioned, displaying burn-in and becoming non-functional. This issue significantly affects safety, as it renders the backup camera unusable during operation. The vehicle was first brought in for service on March 17, 2025, but the issue was not resolved. Subsequent service attempts were made on March 20, April 9, and most recently on April 11, 2025. As of today, the problem remains unresolved. The vehicle has been in the service center for approximately 15 days since the date of purchase. In addition to the defective screen, the vehicle failed to start on one occasion, leaving me stranded alone in a parking lot, stuck in accessory mode with the brake locked. The car has also exhibited alignment issues, consistently pulling to the left while driving, which has required two alignments since the purchase date.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
Potential Consequences:
Multiple owners of the 2025 Tucson Hybrid Limited AWD have reported the same issue with the vehicle's "Driver Assistance Warning" system. The system constantly beeps and, sometimes, takes control of the vehicle, slowing it down, and forcing the driver to pull over. This happened to my wife and me on our recent roundtrip from Apache Junction, AZ, to Los Angeles. In the middle of jam-packed, six-lane freeways with vehicles traveling at 70 mph or more the Tucson would beep-beep-beep and say "Keep your eyes on the road." But, of course, the driver's eyes were on the road. Then the system would take control and slow the car down to 30 mph or so, creating a terrifying and highly dangerous situation. And this is supposed to be a safey sytem. The system obviously was not properly tested in real-life road situations. Apparently, the height of the driver's eyes, their arm position while holding the wheel, whether they're wearing sunglasses . . . all sorts of factors seem to confuse the system and cause it to act when it should do nothing. I have turned off all the driver assistance warnings possible, but it makes no difference. And other drivers report having the same issues--unwarranted, dangerous reactions by the car that cannot be stopped by turning the driver assistance features off. Hyundai has failed in its duty to properly test its driver assistance features. The most rudimentary road testing would have revealed these issues, but Hyundai has put these vehicles on the market without the appropriate testing. Someone needs to do something about it.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Potential Consequences:
The Driver Attention Warning continues to go off shutting the cruise control off. This happens continuously and is a safety issue when driving in traffic and the vehicle suddenly decelerates. This causes traffic behind you to almost reared you because the vehicle decelerates so quickly. Hyundai suggests to move seat, not to wear glasses and other options that in themselves are additional safety concerns as seat positioning and glasses are needed for driving. So far my car has had the sensor located on top of the steering column shimmed up, and wiring harness replaced all to no satisfactory conclusion. Hyundai is aware of the issue, but has no solution to the issue. I’ve been in a loaner for almost 2 months while they string me along looking for a solution. Something needs to be done to fix this safety concern.

This causes traffic behind you to almost reared you because the vehicle decelerates so quickly. Hyundai suggests to move seat, not to wear glasses and other options that in themselves are additional safety concerns as seat positioning and glasses are needed for driving. So far my car has had the sensor located on top of the steering column shimmed up, and wiring harness replaced all to no satisfactory conclusion. Hyundai is aware of the issue, but has no solution to the issue. I’ve been in a loaner for almost 2 months while they string me along looking for a solution. Something needs to be done to fix this safety concern.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS
Potential Consequences:
Regarding the forward collision warning. This system I feel is honestly scaring me and I am now turning it off whenever I start the car I was driving one day and a car abruptly stopped in front of me for a quick second but started rolling again rather quickly. I was slowing down, I saw the car stopping and before I could even react the car slammed on the breaks and completely locked the wheels up and I came sliding to a stop. It almost caused me to be rear ended which I am glad did not happen but again very close. I am also worried it may detect oncoming traffic and slam on the brakes I don’t like feeling that I’m not in control of the vehicle. This system in particular needs either disabled or looked over again

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS
Potential Consequences:
I am filing a complaint regarding a serious safety malfunction in my 2025 Hyundai Tucson’s forward collision sensor, which caused an accident. I have owned this vehicle for only two weeks, and I believe this issue poses a risk to myself and other drivers. On February 25, 2025, while driving, the car in front of me stopped and made a U-turn. There was no imminent risk of collision, yet my Tucson’s forward collision sensor erroneously activated and engaged the automatic braking system. This caused my vehicle to come to an abrupt stop, resulting in a rear-end collision. I have documented the incident, including photographs, a police report, and insurance documentation, which I can provide upon request. This malfunction is extremely concerning, as a feature designed to prevent accidents instead directly caused one. If this issue exists in other Hyundai Tucson vehicles, it presents a severe hazard for drivers. I urge NHTSA to investigate this as a potential safety defect, determine if other similar complaints exist, and assess whether Hyundai needs to issue a recall or software fix. I also need guidance on whether there are any known remedies or if I should take my vehicle to the dealership for inspection. This issue must be addressed before it leads to more accidents. Please let me know if further information is needed.
