Not impressed

In the 4 months, I've owned this car I've had to use roadside assistance 3 times. The car just wouldn't start. After 2 times service it was determent that I had a faulty battery. Also, this car doesnt have a compass and to use Homelink to open the garage door the car must be on, I repeat...If you turned the car off BEFORE oppening your garage door you'll have to turn it back on in order to use Homelink.The rear door will open automatically if you stand near it for even a very short period of time with you key on you, whether you want it or not. I see this as a sefety issue. Android auto has very poor resolution on the screen and is very unreliable, it keeps getting disconnected. If you do get this car I recommend getting it with the good old navigation system. Pros: Price, nicely appointed interior, comfortable quiet ride. I feel I've made a mistake getting this car.

I bought a 2021 tucson ultimate. The cameras are blurry and it is a common complaint that hyundai needs to address. When you buy the top trim with leather interior you would expect more leather on the door panels. The infotainment display is slow to respnd to voice commands. I suggest moving the blind spot warnings to the interior as in some day time conditions they are difficult to see. I have the 2.4l engine with the 6 speed. The engine is smooth and has good power. The transmission shift are smooth also. The ride is a little firm but not harsh. The fit and finish are very good. As with any product there is room for improvement such as fuel millage. I am happy very happy with the over all product.

I upgraded from a 2018 Tucson to a 2021 Tucson, even after exploring other Hyundai model options. It’s just a great car. Very spacious, drives and handles well, and gets the job done. Very reliable and some new upgrades like lane assist, as well as a sleeker design. You can’t go wrong.

Exterior looks fine. Decent interior room. Seats are fine. Noise, low wind noise, high tire noise, suspension was noisy, quieted down after some miles. MPG with a good mix of driving is low to mid 20's. Steering, sloshy sensation especially when you let off & get back on the accelerator. Alignment is fine. Power, has a delay when you first accelerate then it goes. If you need to go somewhere quickly forget it especially on the freeways. Press and wait. Engine noise is decent except when cold which reminds me of a farm tractor. Brakes are grabby trash. No sensation of warping. Cheap windshield glass, be sure to get glass coverage. Around 33K - Windshield wipers decided not to turn off yet the center screen said they were off. Then "service TPMS system" warning popped up. After two service visits the TPMS Module & BCM were replaced. We're glad its a lease and will be leaving this year. 2 stars now. TPMS came back again, went to the dealer for a 3rd time. Traded it in. It's a lemon. 1 star now.
