Hyundai Tucson Problems

Properly maintained (which means regular servicing, and not driving it like a rental) Hyundai's Tucson can last for hundreds of thousands of kilometres. For over a decade Hyundai's engineering is solid, reliable and will last for many, many km's.

1600 kg in the trailer has brakes, 750 kg if it doesn’t.

Hyundai’s third-generation Tucson is built around the world, including locations such as Chennai, India, Tiaret, Algeria, Anapolis, Brazil, Nosovice in the Czech Republic, and Ulsan in South Korea. Australian-market cars from the South Korean facility, who provide several models Down Under.

You can’t, it’s telling you there is no information for it to display.

 Contact Hyundai’s customer service (1800 186 306) and put your concerns to them, requesting they explain to you why it is normal. You could also ask the dealer to demonstrate the noise using another car.

You are jumping the gun wanting a new car so soon, particularly when you have little justification for claiming you have bought a “lemon”. The fuel tank will presumably be replaced under warranty, and I’m sure the dealer will confirm that the pre-delivery inspection was done. There is no chance the dealer would have found the tank problem during pre-delivery.

The CX-5 and Tucson are both highly rated medium SUVs, and I’m sure both would be good choices for your needs. Both are refined and cabin noise doesn’t appear to be a problem with either of them. If I were to choose I would go for the CX-5.

I would rule out the CX-7 on the basis of poor fuel consumption, the performance of the iX35 petrol version is a little lacking, the Tucson is a better car, but I would suggest the X-Trail is probably your best bet.

We contacted Hyundai on your behalf and were told that at after listening back to all their phone recordings at no point did their Customer Care say to you 'there is no solution'. They went on to tell us that if you could present the vehicle to your local dealer, they will give it a thorough check and this might point to what's causing the issue.

There is an update that's only a week or so away. All we have been told is that it will have some very minor spec changes.
