Air Bags · reported Nov 3, 2026
We were involved in a forward collision at 40mph with a vehicle that crossed the highway to turn into a gas station. None of the airbags deployed. The vehicle was inoperable due to the damage and my wife sustained a knee injury due to hitting the dash durring the wreck.
Engine · reported Nov 2, 2026
My wife was driving her 2022 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid, when she suddenly heard a bang and then the vehicle had very little engine power and would not accelerate properly. This turned out to be because the gas engine would not turn on and only the small hybrid motor was functioning. She was able to safely pull into a parking lot. The vehicle was tow to a Hyundai dealership where they diagnosed the issue as a broken/snapped Hybrid Starter Generator (HSG) drive belt tensioner spring. Because this spring failed, the accessory drive belt lost complete tension, and so the HSG could not start the gas…
Unknown or Other · reported Aug 31, 2026
My vehicle suffered a disabling failure 325 miles from home due to an open Safety Recall campaign. The vehicle is repaired under Campaign Claim #43195279, but Hyundai Corporate is actively denying both a reunite transport tow and travel rental accommodations to retrieve the vehicle. The manufacturer is failing to provide a reasonable or accessible remedy, leaving me completely carless at home for 3 days due to an admitted safety defect with no way to retrieve my vehicle 325 miles from home.
Power Train · reported Aug 19, 2026

The vehicle is fully available for inspection upon request. Safety Risk: While driving, the vehicle suffered a complete, sudden loss of motive power on an active highway entrance ramp. The engine stalled in moving traffic with zero throttle response, creating an immediate collision hazard before requiring a tow. Confirmation by Dealer: Technicians formally confirmed…
Electrical System · reported Aug 6, 2026
While driving my 2022 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid, the vehicle suddenly lost power, began shaking, and all warning lights illuminated at once. The car would not accelerate properly and became unsafe to operate in traffic. After pulling over and restarting the vehicle, the warnings cleared, but the issue has occurred more than once. It first occurred 3/25/26. The dealer was not able to reproduce the issue but found numerous faults and reset them. This is a serious safety concern because the vehicle can unexpectedly lose motor power while driving, creating a risk of collision. The problem is…
