CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2016 Tucson comes with a dual-clutch, 7-speed transmission. But Hyundai forgot to tell you about one key phrase – zero-move. That's right, an alarming number of owners have said their SUV wouldn't accelerate after a stop.

Turns out that's because the transmission's application logic has been stumbling all over itself. Hyundai recalled the issue in September 2016, but it's difficult to say if owners are out-of-the-woods, or if this is just a sign of things to come.

Air Conditioning Unit is not working properly. I am spending over $1500 to have the defective unit replaced. I find it unreasonable that I should spend that amount to repair something that the company should include in a recall campaign.

I have a 2016 Tucson sport with 62000 miles on it. I've been having issues with the ac blowing hot air on and off for a few months.. I took it to a Hyundai dealership and they replaced a defective compressor, the torque limiter had internally sheared due to binding. Now 4.5 months later it's blowing hot air again. I've also had to have the electrical system fixed, the steering column, housing, and mdps module assembly replaced as well.
