What owners say
I have been having a number of things happen; 1- my car will lurch forward at times when I release the brake and hit the gas pedal. 2- the forward collision warning keeps coming on. 3- My heating and oil cooler hoses leaking as well as metal lines, all started to leak at the same time.
The contact owned a 2019 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while driving 45 MPH, the Forward Collision Avoidance warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the vehicle automatically brake, independently without the brake pedal being depressed. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where several codes were illuminated and advised the contact to take vehicle to the local dealer. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 16,803.
The TSB needs to be replaced according to the Hyundai Dealership. This is a known problem and would normally be covered under warranty but I am just outside of my warranty window and it just started happening. The entire audio system, touch screen controls, and hands-free controls do not work. The touch screen freezes after a few seconds and freezes on my backup camera creating a major driving distraction. The audio system does not shut of once the vehicle has been turned off creating a problem for the battery which I have to manually disconnect or it will continue to power my touchscreen system even after I leave the vehicle. The lane assist, blind spot indicator, and any beeping warning sounds do not work because of the failing TSB. I cannot change my cars settings or hear any warnings from the car's sensors. I believe this is a major manufacturing flaw and Hyundai will not fix it even though those warning sounds are part of the safety features of the vehicle and are a major player in driver safety. The radio controls do not work - volume included. I cannot adjust any noises in the car and beeping warnings are no longer sounding. I am worried that this problem is also affecting any and all car audio warnings such as the forward collision warning, parking collision warning, and lane departure warning.
Going up a hill, "Check Blind-Spot Collision Warning System" alert, clunk sound, rpms revved high, power lost and did not shift gears. 2 occurrences. Approximately 40,000 miles.
