Wiper problems of the 2017 Hyundai Tucson

The panoramic sunroof glass suddenly shattered while the vehicle was being driven on the interstate, with no visible impact, object strike, or prior damage observed. The component involved is the sunroof glass panel, and it has already been removed and replaced through insurance repairs, so it is not available for inspection (however, pictures are available upon request). The incident created a loud, explosion-like sound and resulted in glass fragments falling into the interior of the vehicle, including onto the driver and the front-seat passenger, causing minor injuries. This also created a significant safety risk due to driver distraction, panic, and the potential for more serious injury while the vehicle was in motion at highway speeds. The issue has not been reproduced or independently duplicated by a dealer or service center; however, it was inspected and documented by the insurance company and repair facility during the claims and repair process, which confirmed that full glass replacement was necessary. The vehicle or component has been inspected by insurance representatives and a repair shop, but it has not been inspected by the manufacturer or law enforcement. There were no warning lamps, dashboard messages, or any prior symptoms indicating a problem before the failure occurred, and the sunroof appeared to fail suddenly and without any advance indication while the vehicle was in motion.

Unknown car was parked when sunroof shattered.

Panoramic sunroof unexpectedly exploded, without any external (or internal) cause while driving on interstate 635. Fortunately, it was closed, so no glass penetrated the interior of the car.

Since shortly after purchase, the vehicle's backup camera has experienced blacking out after the initialization blackout with regular frequency. When putting the car in reverse the screen initially shows a black screen until the camera intializes. Then the picture of behind the vehicle shows, followed by the backup guide lines. With the vehicle in motion in reverese the camera will again periodically turn black obstructing the view of the driver. The vehcile has been brought in multiple times for repair but the service departemnt frequently says they cannot replicate the issue. After getting Hyundai north America involved the service department took it in again. This time we were able to replicate the issue. The rear camera was replaced but this did not resolve the concern. Upon return to the service department including an open ticket with Hyundai's technical service line, the service department thought they had replicated the issue but only saw the initialization black out at which point they claimed this is as "works as designed". This was not the issue, the issue is once the system has loaded and the vehicle is in motion it blacks out causing a safety issue when backing out onto streets and in busy parking lots.

Headlights project a weird dark shadow on both sides and it makes it very difficult to see in front of me just off center on both sides. This is a very dangerous situation to not feel safe enough to see the road ahead of me.

The rear hatch glass has a destination line about 2 inches down from the top of glass that runs the full width of the glass. The dealership has replaced it 2 times and all have the same defect. After the second glass replaced I took it to a glass shop. They verified it has defect line in glass. Defect present at all times.

The vehicle failed to accelerate on a circle causing me and another vehicle to collide. I have taken the car into the shop on numerous occasions the first time at 150 miles on the odometer and continuing for over a year, each time the dealership insists that no problem exists or existed, neither Hyundai nor the dealership will acknowledge that there is an inherent safety issue with this 7 speed transmission, this vehicle decelerates, hesitates from a stop and does not always handle in a safe manner. I am extremely careful and cognizant of these issues when I am driving always taking extra precautions however, in this instance that slight hesitation in acceleration was enough to produce severe damage to my vehicle , substantial monetary loss and injury.
