I went to get an oil change on Sept 3, 2022. After that oil change my car went back to normal but started to slow down in speed. On my way home my vehicle stalled. The more I drove the slower it got and loud grind it would make. My vehicle stalling could've caused an accident. My vehicle had a recall done March 21, 2021, which after Sept 7, 2022, I received a letter for a recall for a sensor for my vehicle that was issue per Hyundai website March 31, 2021. Hyundai has been able to confirm the issue. Only thing warning sign I received was my vehicle cut off the day I got the oil change Sept 3, 2022. We thought it may have been my battery.

I purchased my 2018 hyundai tucson limited 1.6l forward drive new in november 2018. I started experiencing problems a few weeks after my purchase. The vehicle is slow to accelerate at times and other times the vehicle lurches/accelerates forward at a high rate of speed with my foot on the brake pedal. For instance, I was at a drive thru with my foot on the brake pedal and my tucson began to accelerate forward. I was so afraid that I was going to hit the car in front of me that I turned the vehicle off. On numerous occasions it has lurched/accelerated forward with my foot on the brake pedal. Other times when I begin to accelerate after stopping at a stop light the vehicle just hesitates to move at all. It is very slow to accelerate for a turbo vehicle. Concerning my brakes, my brakes are making a high pitch squealing sound. I have taken my tucson in for service for the brake issue, and I have been told that there is nothing wrong and that is the noise that tucson brakes make. Brakes do not make a high pitch squealing noise for no reason at all. Also, I took my tucson to be serviced for the engine/transmission problem and I was told that there was nothing that they could do about the problem. This SUV is a deathtrap. The 2018 tucson 1.6l needs to be recalled and the engine replaced with a 2.4l engine and the brake system needs to be redesigned.

I have the 2018 tuscon limited 1.6t dct with no more than 12,000 miles. When accelerating from a stop or accelerating after braking and pressing the gas pedal normally, the car stops accelerating and the car slows down. This also happens after coming to a stop and turning onto a different street. When it happened to my wife she pulled over into the center turning lane, because the car would not accelerate and there were cars turning behind her. I have taken it in to have it serviced and they either applied an update or reset the transmissions computer; however, a few hundred miles later and it's doing it again. My wife is concerned that this will happen one day and will cause an accident; she said she does not feel safe driving this car anymore. My first vehicle was a manual and I know how a manual drives and how they accelerate after shifting. I understand that a dct may have similar behaviors. However, this would be similar to someone holding in the clutch on a manual and not being able to shift gears, grinding them, causing the vehicle to not accelerate and any vehicle behind them to stop or slow down suddenly. We love the car, but the transmission makes us feel unsafe and hopefully we do not get into an accident due to this dct issue. I have also contacted hyundai directly about this and I am supposed to be receiving a call from hyundai consumer affairs in 3-5 business days.

I have bought this vehicle last year. There is a loud noise when I take off after I have started the car and go. I have taken it in they told me it is the gear shifter. [xxx]. This car has no power when you take off and the brakes have squeaked since day 2.I have taken it in and they have scraped the brakes 3 times. I have complained and thought it was just me until I have read more complaints.
