Engine started knocking and vehicle went into limp mode as my daughter left highway for her exit . When Hyundai attempted to replace engine, discovered 4wd transfer case seized into transmission preventing removal of engine, replaced engine ,transmission, and transfer case. This is the same engine in the santa fe , and sonata which was recalled. Hyundai is still refusing to extend the recall to the Tucson too. So owners are not entitled to the extension on the extended warrantee. Due to them not wanting anybody to know about this defect in the motors that the Tucson share with their other models. The government should of stepped up and made Hyundai honor the extension to include the Tucson model too. For all Tucson owners are left in the cold with a vehicle worth shit since they are still having more problems with this 2. 4l motor.

I've been having a serious, reoccurring problem, that the service team continues to miss-diagnose. While accelerating, my car will suddenly lose all power. The engine continues to function just fine, and the rpm's continue to rise (very rapidly), but no power is being transferred to the wheels. The service team has decided this is an issue with my tire pressure, which is clearly not the case. This issue is either software related, or is symptomatic of a drivetrain problem, transmission, transfer case, or front/rear differential. This is a serious concern for my safety, and the safety of my family. I'm reporting to the NHTSA. I have been driven off of the road twice because of my inability to accelerate when needed. Today was the second time I have ended up on the side of the road, shaken, crying and afraid. I have been taking this car in for this issue since 2012. This happens on all roads but is more likely when trying to accelerate on the freeway.
