general problems of the 2016 Hyundai Tucson

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? the airbag system, brake system, and hvac system (air conditioning and heating) appear to have malfunctioned. A dealer confirmed that the hvac system is defective, identifying a broken evaporator assembly and a faulty temperature door actuator. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? the airbag safety light raises concerns about whether the airbags will deploy during an accident. The brake light error creates uncertainty about the reliability of the brake system. Additionally, the defective hvac system is a significant safety hazard. The heater’s failure prevents the windshield from defogging, impairing visibility, particularly in cold or wet weather. This poses a serious risk while driving, especially in freezing temperatures. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? yes, the hvac system defect has been confirmed by a dealer, who provided images and recommended replacing the evaporator assembly and temperature door actuator. Independent mechanics have also observed the airbag and brake light errors but were unable to identify the underlying causes. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, or others? the vehicle has been inspected by independent mechanics and one dealership but has not been evaluated by the manufacturer, police, or insurance representatives. Were there any warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? the airbag safety light and brake light errors have been present since I acquired the vehicle. The hvac system began failing intermittently shortly thereafter, with the issue worsening over time. These unresolved issues continue to jeopardize the safety and reliability of the vehicle.

When driving all the warning light is on. Also when you reduce speed or stop at the light the steering wheel turn hard to turn or move. The battery seem to be low voltage, because when you lock the car the sound of the horn sound weak. And wouldn't start.

When both driving and idling, the car will either stall or feel like it is about to stall, when all of a sudden the vehicle “pauses” for a second and then all of the dashboard lights come on. This has now happened at least 4 times in the past month. It will reset after turning the car off, but on more than one occasion after turning the car off, the engine doesn’t restart right away. Thankfully, the car has restarted and it resets the dashboard lights. My safety is a concern if my car stalls while driving at any speed! I have yet to take it to the dealer, as there’s a very long wait for an appointment - another recurring issue. No one has inspected this for me, and it is very concerning. There is plenty of evidence that this is happening to others in both online forums and Hyundai owners sites online.

The passenger side headlight compartment has condensation in it. Enough condensation so the headlights don't work. When I took it in for recall work I mentioned this as I thought that it might have possibly been a short or a loose wire, and they shared that no it's not wired it's just water in that enclosure and I need to pay for it myself to get it replaced to the tune of $1900 for the new part. . I've seen other complaints about the same problem. Why will Hyundai not fix this? I found something from Hyundai that states, do not replace!.

I have a 2016 Hyundai Tucson and now that the vehicle is almost paid for, I am having issue with the blinker. When I put the let or right blinker on it stops blinking, also, my car smells like something is burning. I take good care of my car, I do routine maintenance on it when it is require, I have regular oil changes. I am taking to a Hyundai shop this weekend.

The contact owns a 2016 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that when she was near her vehicle she noticed that the driver's side door window was in the open position. The contact stated that she could not raise the window. The contact stated that over the next month the other three windows also dropped into the open position and could not be raised. Additionally, the contact stated that both headlights had failed and she had to have them replaced. The contact had taken the vehicle to a local dealer where it was diagnosed and determined that the window mechanisms needed to be replaced. The vehicle had been repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 53,000.

1) front right driver headlight warning message, keeps illuminating. Mechanic, noticed wires are burning inside compartment. Safety issue burning wires may cause entire electrical system to burn out causing a fire and not having headlights. Vehicle being serviced 10/29/21 2) driver brake light message illuminated, replaced light 2 mo ago, as of today 10-28-21, brake light out again. Vehicle being serviced 10/29/21 3) purchased vehicle 3/21. Vehicle will not accelerate, it will jerk causing a slow start, safety issue. Vehicle taken to mechanic covered thru warranty, he stated vehicle drove ok, still having same problem since 3/21.

My transmission gears shift keeps on sticking in the park position and also I’ve been having to replace my left side parking lights I believe it’s an electric problem or fuse and the dealership seems to can’t fixed this issue with my vehicle each time I take it there.

Originally when I purchased my car I complained to the dealer about my radio going black and they claimed it was due to the cold and brushed it off. Now recently I had the same issue but now as I was driving straight on the highway all of the lights on the dash keep flickering on and off telling me to check every system. My car signals/hazards will not work. Speedometer will not work along with blind spot recognition and other things.

Passenger brake ligh repeatedly goes out, Hyundai dealership has admitted it is a recurring issue arising from subpar parts with known quality problems. Occurs randomly; stationary, in motion. Vehicle primarily used for city driving.

Blinker stays on even after it is shut off, brake like continuously goes out, even though it has been replaced several times (may be a wiring issue).

Lights of stop do not have normal function. Sometimes, turn on and most of time, not.

Tl the contact owns a 2016 Hyundai Tucson. While driving after dusk, there was reduced visibility from the driver's side headlamp. The contact stated that the failure was due to dark spots on the headlamp. The contact was concerned that there was a failure with the refractive lens in the headlamp along with the placement of the headlamp. The contact was unsure if the headlamp was placed improperly. The contact stated that the headlamp was a replacement after a crash involving a deer. The vehicle was repaired at an independent repair facility. A dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was notified. The approximate failure mileage was 37,000.

First my driver's side rear door got to sticking at 60, 500 mile and now my front passenger side door doing the same thing. My taillight says it's not work and it be working and vis versus, as if there's a shortage. Now the steep hill lights come on along with the car traction light. It's doing it more now than ever. Having to restart my vehicle everytime now to reset it. It doing it at red light and while I'm driving all on it own. My biggest fear is my doors sticking and the dealership in tupelo ms told me I will have to pay for a diagnostic and to me I feel I should not have to because that dealing with my safety. There have not be any thing done to either door for the to be that way on my behalf.

"takata recall": front light signatures for the "left-side" swich on and off constantly. When the initial car turns on, the dashboard on occasions, goes black! the car when goes on to highways, the engine (rpm) goes up to 7000 rpm for the first and second gear! ths will happen when the car is turn on. Lastly, the trunk automatically started opening even when the keys are away or in my jacket or pocket especially when turned off the car.

I have had problems with two trailer hitch sending units causing brake lights to be constantly illuminated. Hyundai has issues a recall for my model year on this issue, but for some reason my VIN is not covered in the recall.

The first sign of trouble with the vehicle concerned the computerized functions within the vehicle. I could not sync my phone to the car and other issues . The second sign of trouble was when I was on my way to work one rainy morning. I exited the expressway and stopped at the red light. Once the light turned green - the car would not move. I sat there for a few lights attempting to get the car to move. It finally jerked and accelerated very quickly and I immediately took the car to the dealership. I was told that there was nothing wrong with the car because they road tested the car and did not have the same problem. I kept having all sorts of problems after this, such as jerking, lurching, lights flickering in and out, to name a few. The transmission seems to be confused and I consider this car to be quite unsafe to drive. Eventually I took the car back to the dealer and they replaced a hood latch - something I did not even know I needed and performed a software cluster that was supposed to repair the vehicle. They kept the car for a full week. I got the car back and did not have it 24 hours before it started acting up again, but even worse than before. It still shoots out after the accelerator has been tapped gently, lurches and jerks forward, stalls and stops, especially if it is raining. I don't even want to think about trying to drive this car once the winter has set in. I am already afraid to drive it. I have been attempting to communicate with the dealer (world Hyundai of matteson, IL ) and Hyundai motors to no avail. I have to pay for a car that is unsafe to drive. I am afraid they aren't going to make any real changes unless someone has a tragic accident and dies.

A/c digital display brightness is very dim and cannot be adjusted. It is so dim that I am unable to read the display during daytime hours. The instrument display brightness is adjustable. Dealer took a new Tucson off the lot and. It had the same problem. They issued a case number 9227369. Have not heard anything from Hyundai about this design problem.
