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.

This is so dangerous in case of emergency! My grandson sits on his carseat. Can't get in the other door. Had to pass through the door where the child car seat is.

Tucson Ultimate 1.6L Turbo

This is a very common problem as shown by many YouTube videos on how to fix it. Hyundai vehicles are so poorly engineered.
