So Many Flaws
I wanted to love My Tucson but from the beginning I had issues with my car. First of all, a week or so after buying it, I noticed a noise when I was driving down the highway. It always made the noise when I was going over about 60 mph. I let Hunter Hyundai know about it and took it in to be looked at. They told me nothing was wrong with the vehicle because they could not reproduce the noise and they didn't have any computer notifications telling them something was wrong. It took me 2 months of fighting with them and speaking with the manager multiple times etc before they finally kept the car and did a thorough inspection. It ended up being a 10 minute fix because the whole panel underneath the car was loose. Apparently, the bolts were stripped out by the time they diagnosed the problem and it was barely hanging on. Meanwhile, I was told by them I was imagining the noise. Needless to say, my experience with Hyundai did not start out the way I would have liked. How does a computer in the car diagnose something like that? It doesn't. But incompetent mechanics told me nothing was wrong (and acted as if I was imagining the noise) because the computers didn't have any error codes. That is BS. After that, I didn't go back to Hunter Hyundai for my repairs. I did however have to have other things that needed repair along the way. The final straw however was that my AC went out at 15,000 miles. Apparently there are 3 parts to a Tucson AC and they were backordered. So a year after owning my car, I had to wait quite awhile for parts to the AC in the middle of summer. That was the final straw. I decide that no matter how much I liked my car, I was not keeping a car that had so many issues so I got rid of it. As an aside, we also have a Hyundai Ionic 5. The battery died in it and we waited for 5 months without our car for a new battery replacement. I am not sold on Hyundai's as a brand.
There are some positives. I liked the pick up of the Tucson Hybrid. I liked the gas mileage. I like the infotainment system (except that it didn't have knobs but had a touch screen), and I liked the comfort of the car. I miss those things. I will take reliability over those things any day though. I now have a Toyota Crown Signia and it is a wonderful replacement for my lemon of a Hyundai Tucson Hybrid.
