Went from always having a car to the Tuscon Sport

By Debra Miller written on 01-21-2016

Okay, so I never had an SUV before and never planned on it, but when my lease was expiring on my Sonata it was time to look. The Tuscon Sport looked so great and sporty I had to give it a try. The heated seats and the way the seat hugs you is so comfortable! I tried the Sante Fe, but the Tuscon seat comfort was much better to me. The ride is quiet and pretty smooth considering I live where there aren't very great kept streets. I drive mostly in ECO mode and have turned it off and noticed the huge difference in power, I have also played with the manual shift and might experience some more as I can drive a manual. Brakes work great and I love the back up camera and was surprised when it warned me a car was coming up the street and not to mention I love the lane change indicator for the blind spots. So now I'll never go back to a car again... And I love Hyundai as their warranty is to die for....I have owned a 2003 Elantra, then the 2012 Sonata, but the Tuscon by far the best. I didn't even bother looking at other SUV's, I'm glad I read the other reviews about the other SUV's out there..confirmed to me I did not make a mistake in buying my Tuscon. My SUV gets great compliments...1) mailman was like wow that has a really great trim line, 2) dealership the person installing my remote start said what a beautiful vehicle, 3) my friend was wowed by the appearance....was not expecting the first 2 at all and never had anyone say anything about my Sonata. So go for it, if thinking of buying....I love mine!

Don't purchase vehicle until they find a solution

By Tiffany101 written on 02-29-2016

I purchased this car last year and I wish I would've bought a different car. I started experiencing jerking issues a few days after I purchased the car. Not safe at all! The acceleration is poor as well. Also, my dashboard light changes when I'm traveling at different speeds. I always keep the lights on the lowest setting and it randonmly changes without me touching it. I only have a little over 4k miles on this car. I rarely drive the car because I work from home now. However, I don't see this car lasting two years without having major mechanical issues. The transmission will be the first to go! Please, consider other options before purchasing this vehicle.

DO NOT BUY THIS CAR!!!

UPDATE: After reading one of the comments from my review, I decided to give an update to this review. The person who thought I was being "over dramatic", do you even own this vehicle? Since my post, have you seen all of the bad reviews for this vehicle for similar issues? When a person's life is in danger, as you can see from all the MANY other bad reviews regarding safety, how can you say that is being over dramatic? After having the initial repair, we continued to have the same transmission problems that others have been having, although I didn't mention this is the original review. The car has almost completely stalled many times pulling out into traffic that under normal circumstances would have been safe to do, that is, having plenty of time to do it safely. We finally took the vehicle back to the dealer because it had a recall for the latch and mentioned this problem. We were told it needed a gear actuator. Which they had to special order and it was going to take awhile. After not hearing anything for 2 weeks we called the dealer and was advised it was on back order and would be another couple of weeks. We have since got the car back and it still has the same hesitations. After the car had been in the shop for a total of 39 days between both incidents we have sent in the paperwork to lemon this vehicle out. By law in GA it is 30 days out of service (not to mention it would also fall under the other stipulation of failure to fix a serious life threatening problem (which in both cases it was). Beware though, even in the handbook, the manufacturer can't even put in the proper information for getting them the paperwork, the zip code wasn't complete AND it was wrong, had to be auto-corrected when sending them the paperwork. They have 20 days and we have requested buy back, no way do I want another piece of crap car that they have so many problems with. Like one review said, this is a class action law suit waiting to happen. It is a matter of time before someone gets seriously injured. You have no way of contacting corporate directly and when you call customer care you keep getting told you should hear something in 3-5 days. We are following up with the state again tomorrow. Very disappointing, dealership and corporate. I purchased a loaded 2016 Tuscan from a brand new dealership only open 1 week. I had the car for just 1 day shy of 1 MONTH. I was driving home and without warning LOST ALL POWER. Thankfully I was able to get it pulled to the side in a subdivision. I had NO warning of this. Dash light all came on, advising check AEB and TPMS. I couldn't even use my hazard lights!!!! After getting it towed to the dealership we purchased it from we went the next morning and was told the alternator had failed to charge the battery!!!! Really, a brand new car!!!! The manager refused to even talk with us after several attempts to speak with him. Total loss of EVERYTHING on a vehicle is a HUGE safety concern. Thankfully it didn't happen 5 minutes earlier when I was going 60!!!! The manufacturer advises it will be MAYBE February before they can get the alternator since it is so new. Definitely falling under lemon law since out for more than 30 days and major safety issue!!!!!! I would have given this no stars but didn't allow this. BUYER BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sometime newest technology not always what they claim and not worth it.
