19 days after the 90 day clause, the engine froze. Mechanic says this year model is notorious for that.

I bought my 2017 Tucson 1.6 turbo new. It has 96,000 kilometers now. The engine began using oil at 80,000 km and Hyundai won't fix or replace it until it uses 1.5 liters every 1,000 kilometers. Mine uses 1.25 liters and the 5 year 100,000 km warranty has expired 8 months ago. When bringing it in to verify the oil it burns I spoke to DOZENS of other Tucson owners who had the same problem - none of them qualified for warranty. Now at 96,000 km (and 8 months past its warranty) mine has also developed a serious transmission seal leak which affects the CV transmission - $3,000 repair not covered by warranty now. Together I need a new engine, new CVT clutch at a total cost of $11,000 none of which is covered by warranty. I have owned 8 new vehicles over the years and I have never had one of them that required either a new engine or new transmission despite driving each of them over 150,000 km (one of them I drove for 350,000 km) before trading them in on a new vehicle . Avoid any Hyundai Tucson but especially the 2017 1.6 turbo.

Disappointed. Going to do my research next time looking into cars, as this was my first time car buying experience. I will not recommend a Hyundai to anyone. 6 year mark on the vehicle, 105k miles and the engine completely blew. I noticed in the last 2 years or so it was burning oil quickly and I was having to do frequent oil changes. If you look up other articles on this vehicle you will see multiple reports of the same issues. Clearly it was an issue as the whole engine got destroyed. Also want to note that there was absolutely no warning lights on the vehicle when the engine started to make knocking noises. Went through the dealership and through corporate Hyundai only to get a discount on a new engine. The day after I picked up the car after putting in the new engine at the dealership, the A/C started only blowing hot air. I reported the issue the next day and was denied coverage on the A/C both by the corporate and the dealer. Total for engine and A/C was over $4,000. Also, I was only contacted by one representative through corporate Hyundai after submitting my concerns over 2 months ago and of course they can’t do anything because it’s out of warranty. Just read the reviews yourself and do your research. Hopefully I can trade the car in elsewhere and I am definitely not going to buy another Hyundai.
I love my car!

2017 Hyundai Tucson Eco 4dr SUV (1.6L 4cyl Turbo 7AM)

This car is beautiful. There is plenty of room for 5 adults and plenty of leg room. The console is beautiful and easy to set up. The only drawback would be that there is not much room in the very back trunk area. Other than that I highly recommend this car.

Be aware the car looks very nice! but looks are deceiving. i got mine on the beautiful Caribbean blue with the upgraded wheels, cars is spacious and it serves its purpose as a small SUV. Panoramic sunroof is beautiful. Radio works fine as well as the Bluetooth. I has blind spot detector, cross traffic warning, rear view camera, heated front seats, plenty of good pointers to the car. Now onto the thing i HATE about this car, the transmission, its shifts like garbage on low gears it jerks really badly and in occasions after a short stop car wont accelerate right away, it lacks power at is has a small engine for the size of the car. Unfortunately, Hyundai's do NOT hold they resale value so if you really want to trade out of the car early you will be deep on upside down $$$$$. In general its a great looking car with a very ugly power-train.
