Hyundai continues to surprise. This is fine, reliable SUV. Packed with safety features and excellent build quality. Over 5 thousand miles and no problems. Gas mileage is good too. Between 25 and 30 mpg if you stay within speed limit. If Hyundai addresses road noise, ( loud on course pavement ) this vehicle will move to the top of the class.
Can't stick to the road

My wife bought this 2012 Hyundai Tucson AWD new. I only drive it occasionally. Although she likes it, I avoid driving it as much as possible. The gas pedal and the brakes are both touchy, so I have a problem with smooth stopping and starting. The suspension is firm but poorly tuned, so the car hops and jolts if the pavement is the least bit rough. Adding to the control problem is poor damping of the steering, so that the front wheels are kicked left and right by uneven pavement. As a result, when the pavement is the least bit rough, not only does the car hop about, it also has a directional wobble that is difficult and tiring to control. The short wheelbase and top-heavy design don't help matters. On the plus side, the car has nice styling, plus a comfortable and attractive interior. The reliability has been great -- no repairs after 55,000 miles

I just bought a '12 Tuscon trusting that after glowing reviews. 2 days later the engine seized with no notice except dash light indicating it was running hot. After bing towed to dealership found out it needs a new engine. Carfax only indicated an open recall for oil pan. I made an appointment for that to be taken care of. Never made it there. Hyundai dealership says the car is not on recall list. My '08 Santa Fe 6 cyl. has stalled several times in the last couple years for no reason. This complaint to the company has also gotten no where. I won't buy another Hyundai after I can get rid of these. I guess I'm lucky that the dealership where I bought this car will replace the engine but I'll have to pay $2000 towards it. When test driving the Tuscon the engine sounded perfect. There was no indication of a problem. Everyone beware of these cars.

I've owned my 2012 Tucson GLS for two months now and just love it ! It handles well..rides great..and just an all around in & out attractive vehicle. Is it the quietest..or the smoothest..or have all the bells and whistles..NO, but it didn't cost me 45,000 or more either ! The mileage is VERY close to what is stated, I'm getting 21-22 around town. I have the Iris Blue and get compliments on the car all the time. I have no complaint at all. Worth the money.

The Tucson is a very stylish midsize crossover. I love the look of this vehicle, its still hard for me to believe its a Hyundai. The only downfall so far in the seating....the seat needs to be a little wider so the seatbelt won't dig into your hips.
