Owner report 11549333 · 2023-10-11 (October 11, 2023)
The implementation of the hybrid car backup warning siren exceeds safe noise limits. In order to meet the fed reg requiring the vehicle to emit a sound that reaches the 56 db level 6 feet from the rear bumper- Hyundai installs a >90db speaker in the front of the car. This design decision saved money and meets the standard but at a tremendous cost to those who happen to be in front of the car when it's in reverse. This is big concern for those living in Apts and areas they have to park in close proximity to neighbors homes. In my 2-3 story compl…

Owner report 11554054 · 2023-11-07 (November 7, 2023)
The rear turn signals sit really low. Several times I've had cars that clearly did not expect me to turn, yet my turn signals were on. I asked my husband to check my lights and we realized if a car was too close behind (which I can't control) or a larger vehicle it would be impossible for them to see the turn signals in the rear. I checked for other complaints and sure enough this is a big concern for many - so much so that a number of folks are trying to fix it by installing LED lights in the hopes of bringing attention to their turn signal…

The VESS in the 2024 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid MUST be modulated. It creates a nuisance and living in a Home Owners Association, I am looking at fines for creating a nuisance. THe Law requiring this calls for approx 50 Decibels. This horn is 90 Db. My City has an Ordinance that does not allow noises over 85 Db between 11 PM and 7 AM, and 9 AM on weekends. BECAUSE OF THE NOISE LEVEL WHEN BACKING UP, I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE THIS CAR. I have no choice but to park my car in my garage, thus backing up is mandatory. Also, in parking lots, it is embarra…

Owner report 11563142 · 2024-01-02 (January 2, 2024)
I was driving home on Christmas day 2023 in my 4 month old 2024 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid. An hour into my 4 hour drive my car began making a low whump whump sound. No alerts or alarms came on my display to indicate anything was wrong. The noise was off and on for a couple miles. Suddenly my emergency brakes slammed on, my dash went red and the alarms went off. No one was in front of or around me. Had someone been behind me I would have been rear-ended. This was while I was going approximately 75-80. It could have caused a massive wreck had the fr…

Emergency breaking went on without any traffic around while driving on freeway. The car put the breaks on and took control of the steering. Lasted about 10 to 15 seconds.

There are bolts that are too long in the space for a spare tire that prevents storing a spare tire in the well.

Owner report 11589141 · 2024-05-16 (May 16, 2024)
The Hyundai I just purchased was packaged with BOTH carpeted and rubber mats. Both were priced and charged separately on the Hyundai window sticker. The car cannot be bought without paying for both. It is well known that driving with rubber mats over carpet mats creates a serious safety hazard that will can lead to the mat slipping and the driver losing control over speed and braking. I contacted Hyundai to warn of the safety issue and request a refund for one of the mat types. They basically told me to get lost. I think a safety violation sho…

Owner report 11592743 · 2024-06-05 (June 5, 2024)
My Tucson is applying Automatic Emergency Break without a reason. It happened to me 3 times in a week with my Tucson Hybrid 2024 NLine, it was scary and I was on freeway at 70+MPH and couldn't capture the warning as it popped out for only 3 sec. I see no cars around when this happened and when I checked few forums I see this as a common problem in Hyundai vehicles in recent times and feeling scared. I was lucky enough last week as there is not vehicle behind me when breaks applied automatically.
