With a recall involving ABS modules that can cause engine fire is a serious recall. No shops in the area had availability to resolve this issue in less than a week. This is too long of a time for these types of issues. I am not blaming the shops, there is only so much they can do. But, more assistance should have been offered to them to meet the needs of this issue. I called the morning after I got the notice.

My car was purchased from enterprise leasing in may 2019. I was not told about the recall #195 which is a safety issue and can result with the car on fire. According to your website a plan to solve the problem was submitted to you on may 16, 2018 before the car was sold to me. I was never informed about the recall by hyundai. I found out about the recall from a friend. Upon notifying hyundai they have yet to provide a solution to a serious problem. My wife is now concerned for her safety and has serious stress issues if she has to drive this car. We have had three people at the hyundai corporate office tell us there is a solution but the service department at ebersole hyundai says there is no fix for the problem. Actually making the car a safety hazard tp drove/ we are told that because we bought the car from enterprise leasing and not directly from hyundai there is nothing they can do for us. I feel that there has been serious fraud that took place when selling us this car since it was already declared to be unsafe with a potential fire hazard.

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 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.
