Your 2024 Tucson was involved in a high-speed rear-end collision that pushed it into another vehicle, causing damage to both the front and rear. The airbags failed to deploy during the impact, and you sustained injuries from the accident. The vehicle was totaled. The airbag system may need inspection to determine why it didn't activate.

Your rear door was open while you drove into your garage, and your Tucson hit the garage door without any warning. Unlike the other doors on your vehicle, which have beeping and audio alerts when open, the rear door only shows a red warning light on the dashboard—which you didn't notice while driving. You're concerned that this lack of audible warning is a serious safety issue, especially since the vehicle is equipped with rear sensors and cameras that can detect obstacles during parking.

Your windshield cracked on its own while the car was parked, with no trees or objects nearby that could have caused it. The crack started at the edge where the windshield meets the frame and spread toward the middle. You believe this is a manufacturing or installation defect since your car is only 2 years old and has never been damaged, and you've found reports of similar problems in other Hyundai models.

My a/c system has a strong mold/mildew smell. The dealership flushed the system and said a bunch of black mold came out. It has been 3 months and the issue is back. It can’t possibly be safe and healthy to be constantly breathing in mold spores. I have seen a ton of other owners complaining about the same issue. I definitely think the a/c drain design is faulty in some regard.

While driving my 2024 Hyundai Tucson at highway speeds on a clear day with no surrounding traffic, I was startled by an extremely loud bang that sounded like an explosion. Pieces of shattered glass rained down inside the passenger cabin, creating a potentially hazardous situation. This incident was a traumatic experience. The sudden and unexpected event had the potential to cause serious injury to the driver, as well as increase the risk of a collision due to the shock and distraction it caused. Additionally, other pieces of shattered glass were propelled from the vehicle, posing a risk of injury or damage to other drivers on the road. Upon physical inspection, it was noted that the glass from the panoramic sunroof was bowed upwards, which suggests the explosion originated from within the sunroof and NOT an external factor such as road debris or a rock. The vehicle, which is less than a year old, is currently at the Hyundai dealership pending an investigation. Given the severity of the incident and the potential risks to driver and passenger safety, I strongly recommend that a recall be issued or a comprehensive investigation be initiated by the NHTSA to prevent further occurrences of such dangerous incidents. Safety must be a priority, and swift action is necessary to ensure that no other drivers or passengers are at risk of similar events.

I had the windshield recall repaired and my car still leaked. It has been at the dealership for over 2 weeks for repair. I am concerned whether this vehicle will be safe to drive even after a new windshield is in stalled and all of the carpeting has been replaced. The vehicle is only 8 months old from the time I purchased it from the Hyundia Dealership

While driving my vehicle (fewer than 3,000 miles on it) I pulled out of a parking lot onto a busy street. The car suddenly stopped driving, slowing to a complete stop. The dashboard read "Auto start stop reset required." I had to place the car in park (on the busy road) and press the start button to resume driving. Temperature gauge read normal, gas was full, no oddities showing on my dash board.

•What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? I am not sure exactly what system was involved. But I was pulling in to a parking space on a Washington DC street on Saturday [XXX] when my car suddenly accelerated the steering locked, the brakes didn’t respond and the vehicle mounted a curb and struck a tree. •How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The car went out of my control for a few moments, making it impossible to steer or brake. My wife and I were slightly injured when the car struck the tree and if the tree wasn’t there it could have continued on the sidewalk and struck a pedestrian or of the houses beyond the tree. •Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? No. I reported it to the dealer the day it happened. They said I needed to take it to their service department to be looked at. The facility is closed on weekends – and I will take it in for inspection today, [XXX]. •Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? No, it has not. •Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No, there was no warning that indicated there was a problem. After the incident, the car reported the front passenger side parking camera was obscured or broken (this was from the impact with the tree).

The heating system doesn’t work - have yo run at settings well over 80 yo get a modicum of warmth. Each time I took in, they’d give me a loaner and each loaner had same issue. Hyundai corporate claims that’s how it should be. Alerts keep resetting to off when car is turned off. That way since I bought car and never fixed

The vehicle continues to leak water into the floor carpet even after a recall was supposed to fix the windshield leak problem for this car. This can cause mold.
