Thankfully we are alive. We were going at speed and he attempted to pass me on the median, grass and rumble strips. He was inches away from my rear bumper, riding me. When I put the turn signal to move away from him he hit my driver’s side rear panel (side swiped), thank God it didn't turn into a pit maneuver and killed us. He then proceeded to take off. So one thing I have to say is, the vehicle has great pick up. I called 911 and went after him to get his lic plate. When I got to be about 10 car lengths or so, he slammed his brakes. Since I w…

The trailer towing guidance in the 2022 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid owner’s manual is incorrect and would put the driver in a dangerous situation if followed. There are at least two key errors: - Page 6-68 states, “The trailer tongue should weigh a maximum of 10% of the total loaded trailer weight . . .” This is incorrect. For stability, the trailer tongue weight should be a minimum of 10% of the total loaded trailer weight. - The table on page 6-69 lists the maximum trailer weight when equipped with a braking system as 3,500 pounds. However, the t…

5/17/23 took vehicle to Dick Smith Hyundai for navigation issue, after being asked to park in a different spot brakes failed and car crashed into one of the dealer cars. Since owning the car for over 14 months without any brake issue I thought maybe my foot slipped off the brake. When leaving the dealer I tried braking several times with no issue. 5/26/23 while parking the car at a restaurant the brakes failed me again and was obvious not a slip off the brake that caused the car to collide with a tree saving me and my wife from falling down a s…
