I switched from my Chevy to the Tucson Because of the comfort of the ride & gas Mileage However the Noise from the road is Very Poor & gas isn't to bad. I bought a used one & have had some steering issues with clucking noises. But the dealers tell me they can't find anything I also have some vibration I thought it was the tires or rims Bought new tires & had Balanced & Alignment done & it's still there. No other front end parts are bad to cause this issues. Stereo sound is good navigation is slow but ok Bluetooth is good location of controls on steering is ok But could be rethought about Over All : it's ok But won't buy another !

We bought this car from a Hyundai dealership for my daughter with 94,000 miles on it and paid $10,000 for it. 11 months later with only 7,000 new miles, her engine completely failed on the side of the Interstate. A new engine will cost 12,000 and Hyundai won't cover any cost. This was our first time buying outside of Toyota and Honda, we will never make that mistake again.

Aside from poor power, noisy interior it wasn't a bad car... until the engine spun a bearing at 120000 km (75000 miles). Absolute junk

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.

Tuscon: Overpriced Disappointment

I purchased a Tuscon because I wanted the style and improved gas mileage over my heavy Chevy. I had owned a number of Hyundai vehicles and had largely been pleased with them. Two Sante Fes and the Luxury Hyundai. This vehicle did not match up. My son said, "You don't drive this car. It drives you." Constantly have to correct steering. Can't control acceleration. Won't accerate, then takes off whining. I was happy the day I bought it and the day you sell (albeit at a loss). Miserable in between. Dealer unable to remedy any of the complaints. Sold at 12,000 miles. Whew. Will never buy another Hyundai. Got my Equinox back and love it as well at the real 32 mpg.
