ON MY 2005 HYUNDAI TUCSON GLS (94.5K MILES, SINGLE OWNER, GARAGE KEPT AND REGULARLY CAR WASHED), LOWER LEFT CONTROL ARM WAS SO RUSTED (HOLES) TO A POINT THAT IT CAN BE BENT WITH LITTLE PRESSURE WHEN PUSHED AGAINST HARDWARE SURFACE. MY YOUNG ADULT SON WAS DRIVING THE CAR AND IT STARTED PULLING TO SIDE ON LOCAL STATE HIGHWAY. VERY VERY DANGEROUS!! THANK GOD MY KIDS WERE NOT IN A MAJOR CRASH DUE TO THIS. THE LOWER RIGHT CONTROL WAS RUSTED AS WELL TO A POINT IT MAY NEED A REPLACEMENT IN NEXT YEAR OR TWO. REPLACED BOTH LOWER CONTROL ARMS AND BALL JOINTS AT MY EXPENSE AS I FIGURED HYUNDAI WILL NOT COVER THIS. THERE IS JUST SO MUCH AMOUNT OF RUST UNDER THIS CAR THAT IS UNBELIEVABLE. IN APRIL 2018, LOCAL HYUNDAI DEALER VOLUNTARILY REPLACED THE FUEL TANK BANDS (TSB#18-01-015) UNDER A RECALL #952 (NO RECALL NOTICE RECEIVED FROM HYUNDAI) WHEN I WENT FOR AN OIL CHANGE, HOWEVER THEY MADE NO MENTION ABOUT RUSTED LOWER CONTROL ARMS AND OTHER RUST. I FEEL THAT HYUNDAI AND IT'S DEALERS ARE AWARE OF SEVER RUSTING ON 2005 HYUNDAI TUCSON, BUT KEEPING THEIR CUSTOMERS IN DARK AND RISKING THEIR CUSTOMERS LIVES!! BTW, I OWN 2006 HONDA ODYSSEY EX-L WITH 130K MILES HAS SOLID CONTROL ARMS WITH MINIMAL TO NO RUST. I THINK HYUNDAI MAY HAVE USE A LOWER QUALITY AND LOW COST MATERIAL!!

AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, I NOTICED THAT ONE OF THE WINDOWS IN MY 2005 HYUNDAI TUCSON SOUNDED LIKE IT HAD BEEN ROLLED DOWN. ALMOST IMMEDIATELY, MY DAUGHTER YELLED, "OUR WINDOW IS COMING OFF!" I HAD JUST ENOUGH TIME TO LOOK IN MY REARVIEW MIRROR TO SEE THE RIGHT REAR QUARTER PANEL WINDOW BEING HELD ON BY JUST A SMALL STRIP OF SOME SORT OF ADHESIVE. IN LESS THAN A SECOND, THE WINDOW FLEW OFF, BEGAN PINWHEELING THROUGH THE AIR AND NARROWLY MISSED THE VEHICLE JUST BEHIND ME. EVEN THE REPAIRMAN AT THE HYUNDAI DEALERSHIP THAT REPLACED THE WINDOW FOR ME WAS SPEECHLESS WHEN I TOLD HIM WHAT HAPPENED. I CONTACTED HYUNDAI, AND ALL THEY WOULD TELL ME IS THAT MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY. WHILE IT WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE FOR THEM TO OFFER TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR, I WAS MUCH MORE CONCERNED WITH THEIR LACK OF CONCERN FOR ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE FACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. THEY DID NOT ASK FOR ANY DETAILS OR OFFER ANY CONCERN FOR THE POSSIBLE DAMAGE AND/OR LOSS OF LIFE THAT COULD EASILY HAVE OCCURRED HAD THAT WINDOW HIT THE CAR BEHIND ME. *TR

PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN 10/05 AND HAVE BEEN VERY PLEASED WITH UNTIL RECENTLY. GOT A CARD IN THE MAIL FOR A FREE 34 POINT INSPECTION FROM THE DEALERSHIP, AND DECIDED ON APRIL 5, 2007 TO USE IT. DURING INSPECTION NOTHING WAS BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION. THEN THIS WEEK ON MAY 8, 2007 THE CHECK ENGINE"LIGHT CAME ON. TOOK VEHICLE BACK TO DEALER FOR CHECK. I WAS ADVISED THAT SOME VALVE WAS BAD AND THEY REPLACED IT, BUT BY THE WAY, YOU NEED 4 NEW TIRES AND AN ALIGNMENT RIGHT AWAY. RECENTLY WHILE DRIVING IN THE RAIN I HAD NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS ALL OVER THE PLACE, HYDROPLANING. I FELT VERY UNSAFE AND GLANCED AT MY TIRES. STRANGE ENOUGH, ALL 4 TIRES WERE EVENLY WORN OUT AND NEAR COMPLETELY BALD. DID I MENTION THAT I ONLY HAD 27,000 MILES ON THEM ,AND I HAVE NOT BEEN ANYWHERE BUT REGULAR STREETS. BUT NOT BEING THE TIRE EXPERT I TOOK THE DEALERSHIP AT THEIR WORD AND ASSUMED ALL WAS WELL. SO, A BIT ANNOYED ON MAY 8,2007 I DECIDED TO LOOK UP MY WARRANTY PAPERWORK. HOW IRONIC! THERE WERE TWO PAMPHLETS FOR TIRES IN MY LITTLE HANDY LITTLE HYUNDAI OWNER'S PACK. ONE FOR THESE GREAT 60,000 MILE GOOD YEAR TIRES,, AND THEN THE OTHER FOR THE HANKOOK, KUMHO TIRES THAT JUST HAPPENED TO HAVE ONLY A 24,000 MILE WARRANTY, AND HAPPENED TO BE THE ONES THAT HAD APPARENTLY BEEN PUT ON MY CAR. SO, NOT ONLY LOSING A CUSTOMER TO A SNEAKY BAIT AND SWITCH TACTIC DURING THE SALE OF THE LX MODEL TUCSON, THE DEALERSHIP AND THE TIRE MAKER PUT MY SAFETY AT RISK AND TRIED TO BLAME IT ON A POOR ALIGNMENT. I MAY BE A WOMAN, AND ONE THAT DIDN'T KNOW A LOT ABOUT CARS, BUT I DID KNOW THAT IF A VEHICLE WAS OUT OF ALIGNMENT ALL FOURS TIRES WEREN'T WORN EVENLY AND COMPLETELY BALD AFTER AN INSPECTION THAT TOOK PLACE JUST A MONTH PRIOR, YET WASN'T MENTIONED . I WAS STILL PLEASED WITH TUSCON, BUT VERY ANGRY WITH DEALERSHIP TACTICS. *AK

DT: THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE BY HUYNDAI HOWEVER DUE TO THE VIN NUMBER THIS CAR IS NOT INCLUDED. THE PROBLEM IS THERE IS AN ESP (STABILITY CONTROL) WHICH ACTIVATES ONE OF THE WHEELS AND CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO SWERVE IN THE DIRECTION OF THE BRAKING. IN THIS CASE, THE VEHICLE LOCKED UP AND THE CONSUMER NEARLY LOST CONTROL WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 40 MPH AND THE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL AND BRAKE LOCKED UP. IN THIS INCIDENT, THESE OCCURRED ABOUT 3 TIMES. *JB

INITIAL ISSUES ON VEHICLE PRESENTED IN JANUARY 2021 WITH VARIOUS CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CODES INCLUDING P0133. ALTHOUGH VEHICLE PASSED EMISSIONS IN 2020, VARIOUS CHECK ENGINE CODES FOR MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR, OXYGEN SENSORS, MISFIRE FOR VARIOUS CYLINDERS. AFTER REPLACING INDICATED MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR, OXYGEN SENSORS INDICATED VIA OBD II TOOL, BATTERY, ALTERNATOR (MORE THAN ONCE), BOTH FRONT CV BOOTS, HEAD GASKET SEALS FOR BOTH CYLINDER BANKS, MORE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ISSUES APPEAR ACCORDING TO THE VEHICLE. CURRENTLY ANOTHER CYLINDER MISFIRE CHECK ENGINE CODE HAS APPEARED AFTER ALL SPARK PLUGS HAVE BEEN REPLACED WITH OEM RECOMMENDED BRAND REPLACEMENTS (NKG PRE-GAPPED SPARK PLUGS). THE MISFIRE CODE HAS CLEARED AT THIS TIME. THE CURRENT CHECK ENGINE CODE FROM THE OBD II TOOL IS ERROR CODE FOR DRIVE TRAIN DRIVEABILITY P0420 REGARDING CATALYST SYSTEM OPERATING BELOW THRESHOLD AT BANK 1. I HAVE UTILIZED LOCAL STORE CATALYTIC CLEANER LIQUIDS TO CLEAN THE SYSTEM, WHICH HAS NOT RESOLVED THIS ISSUE. ADDITIONALLY, BEGINNING IN JANUARY 2021, THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE CLOSEST LOCAL DEALSHIP FOR A LARGE MAJORITY OF THESE REPAIRS INCLUDING A $150 DEALERSHIP FEE JUST TO HAVE THESE CODES REVIEWED AND ADDITIONAL FEES FOR THE LABOR TO ADDRESS FOR EACH ISSUE FOR EACH REPAIR.

THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING PLACE IN A SHOPPING CENTER. AS I WAS TURNING INTO THE PARKING PLACE I VERY LIGHTLY TAPPED THE ACCELERATOR AND THE ENGINE REVED UP AND I APPLIED THE BRAKE ONLY TO HAVE THE CAR CONTINUE FORWARD AND GO UP THE CEMENT CURB. I THEN PUSHED DOWN ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AS HARD AS I COULD AND ONLY THEN DID THE CAR STOP. IF THE CEMENT BLOCK HAD NOT BEEN THERE, I WOULD HAVE HIT THE CAR PARKED DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF ME. THE FRONT TIRES HAD GONE ABOUT TWO FEET UP ON THE CEMENT BLOCK. THE NEXT TIME THIS HAPPENED I WAS ONCE AGAIN PARKING. THIS TIME I WAS PARKING PARALLEL TO THE CURB. I PULLED INTO AND IN FRONT OF THE SPACE I WAS GOING TO PARK IN. I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE AND BEGAN TO BACK UP SLOWLY WITH MY FOOT OVER THE BRAKE PEDAL. SUDDENLY, THE ENGINE REVED UP AND THE CAR LURCHED BACKWARD. THIS TIME I APPLIED THE BRAKE VERY HARD AND I WAS ABLE TO STOP MY CAR BEFORE I HIT CAR IN BACK OF ME.
