This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Drivers seat, seat belt at the lap tightens while driving to the point it is brusing hip bones. Even if someone loosens it, the seat belt automatically tightens up to the point it is dangerous in a collision because it can cause internal injuries or more severe injuries. The seat belt design is flawed in that it pulls extra belt from only from the top, so the bottom of the lap belt is fixed and that part is getting too tight and cannot be consistently comfortable or loose enough that it does not bruise or cause injuries to hips and laps. The issue has been ongoing and a major concern. I have contacted Hyundai who said it may or may not be under warranty but expected for me to pay for a visit to the shop to find out when this is a safety issue. Secondly the headlight system keeps failing. What I mean is the left driveres low beam/regular headlight continually burns out despite replacement with new bulbs. The passenger side lo beam/ regular headlight burned out recently and when replaced with the correct light bulb the regular setting for headlights no longer adequately lights the road despite bulbs being installed correctly and exactly as instructed. The lights now face down and are very low. We have changed out the bulbs with different brands and have found the same issue so it has to be an issue with the headlights themselves.
I have to replace the light bulbs every couple of months, the back holder had to be replaced was melted, I believe this is a defect. How do things melt for no reason. Ive spent about 300 to 400. On light bulbs. Just replaced pigtail on the front low beam light. Crazy its pain to have to keep replacing bulbs. Just did this 3/15/21
The headlight system in this vehicle at low and high beam casts a shadow about 100 feet in front. This causes a severe blind spot in front of the driver. In rainy weather it is doubly hard to see what issues face the driver. In fact I almost hit someone walking on the side of the road in rainy weather because they were not visible until they were inside the 100 feet. The lighting system must be replaced as the dealer has advised there is no adjustments they can make to overcome this issue. There have been many complaints to the dealer about it according to him.
The bright light / turn signal arm has an off..auto..on rotating end that controls the headlights/dash/bright-dim control. When the lights are on bright you have to pull the switch arm to dim the lights. The trouble is the rotating end moves from auto to off, shutting all the light dash etc off. Since you are driving at 55 to 75 mph and all the lights go off leaving you moving high speed in the dark Hyundai is endangering my life and the lives of the passengers intentionall because of the poor incompetant design. They should re design the switch arm and remove the light switch from the end of the turn signal arm. I have to take nitro glycerine because I'm scared to death. Other drivers have the exact same problem. All tuscons should be removed from the road until this is fixed. The dealer doesn't care. Hyundai should be fined and jailed for dangerous engineering. It happens multiple times!
The visibility at night is impaired due to the hid headlights. In researching the issue, I see where there are several other complaints on the same thing. This is a dangerous situation to be driving at night with limited visibility. Adjusting the headlights do not seem to be an improvement. The other night, my lights went completely dark while driving. This definitely deserves a notification/recall to the owners of these vehicles before there is a deadly accident. Please do the responsible thing in order to prevent impairing or losing a life.
2mois et demi Aprè's L'achat le gps qui change de langage, il montre plus les Détailles, aucun signe de circulation ou autres et pourtant le deux premier mois tous fonction bien, pas de son dans la radio, je ne peux pas fermer les portes, J'ai du la fermé manuellement, L’arrière de la voiture qui S'ouvre toute seul, J'ai éTé pour faire des achats a mon retour J'ai trouvé L’arrière de la voiture ouverte (coffre) et pourtant J'ai bien Vérifié avant de rentrer dans le magasin puisque ce N'ai pas la première fois que le problème ce pose, J'ai informé le concessionnaire il me dit que C'est moi qui a appuyer sur le bouton par erreurs, je L'ai informé que ce que je me suis dites la 1er, 2eme et 3eme fois mais Là C'est plus que 10fois, hier C'est L'ouverture du toit qui ne veux pas S'ouvrir complètement, J'ai essayé aujourd’hui mais rien il S'ouvre a moitié, le gps il redeviens comme avant, chaque jour une nouvel chose que faire"??"
Headlights project a weird dark shadow on both sides and it makes it very difficult to see in front of me just off center on both sides. This is a very dangerous situation to not feel safe enough to see the road ahead of
All Hyundai limited model trims have poor bulb housings for their headlights. There is a notch in the housing that covers the top part of the bulb and casts a large shadow in front of the vehicle, making driving at night a serious safety problem. I've already contacted the dealer and was told it was a known problem and that Hyundai has yet to do anything about it. I've attached two photos showing the shadow/notch on each headlight. Keep in mind my vehicle has only 295 miles, and I just bought it a couple days ago. My wife is afraid to drive at night because she's afraid she won't be able to see something in front of her. There needs to be an investigation launched because it's only a matter of time until a serious injury is caused as a result of poor lighting and negligence on part of the auto manufacturer.
