Owner report 11628367 · 2024-12-02 (December 2, 2024)

The 2025 Hyundai Tucson's Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system does not operate properly due to either a design flaw or a flawed implementation of the design. Hyundai's integration of Forward Attention Warning (FAW) with the ACC prohibits the driver from using ACC while wearing sunglasses. If one is driving the vehicle with ACC engaged and puts on sunglasses, the FAW flashes a warning on the dashboard and disengages the ACC. In order to engage cruise control the driver must interact with the onboard video display system to switch from ACC to "d…

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 …

On Jan 5th, with odometer reading of 1747 miles, while driving on a busy highway, the car's speed decreased until the car stopped without warning. After pushing the car into a gas station to get out of harm's way, we contacted Hyundai roadside assistance. The car was towed to a nearby Hyundai dealership. The problem was diagnosed the next day - the car needs a new transmission. The transmission is on backorder and will not be delivered to the dealership until the middle of March.

Electrical System	2622.6% ODI 11466122 The backup alarm sound is unreasonably loud. I understand that it's a Hybrid Vehicle and can be quiet but very few ICE vehicle are as loud as the backup sound on my vehicle. One impact of the loud sound is that I find myself rushing to backup just to be able to get my vehicle out of reverse so that alarm can shut off. This is especially true when I'm in trying to avoid noise. This can be backing into my own driveway if I come home late at night so not to wake the family or neighbors.
