2017 Hyundai Tucson consumer reviews

Bought my vehicle used at a dealership at around 40 km. After three weeks of having it, had the dual clutch replaced as it was work and was jerky. Now about eight months later and at around 90 km, same issue. shifting is clunky and jerky and needs to be replaced yet again

This car looks really good but it sucks. Major engine issues, runs rough, oil consumption, basically engine is crap. Turbo boost went early & had to replace brakes many times.

Do not buy. Engine failed at 94k miles. This car is not reliable. Total waste of money and dangerous. The last thing you need is engine failure while driving! Car will leave you stranded on side of road if you’re not careful.

I had my 2005 Tucson for 12 years and upgraded to the 2017 SE. Sadly, many of the conveniences I liked in the car no longer exist, however, Pros: I’ve had no warranty issues and do believe they are built to last for an average driver focused on function. Cons: accelerating is non existent, clunky shifting, sensitive to rain/slip in the faintest conditions; and the passenger seat does NOT fold down!?? Senseless. Plus the newer models circa 2020* are ugly to me and look machine like (personally) where the old looked more luxury. Several recalls and forced services, they don’t pay for your ride back to the dealer… This will be my last Hyundai.

I had the car six months, 92,000 miles and died in the middle of coming home from vacation..Hyundai is not fixing it. New engine 12,000 when I just bought it for 18,000. I'm so sick about it.

I have had a 2017 Hyundai Tucson that I bought off of the showroom floor I have had problems with it for at least 3 years and have told them at the dealership that it uses way too much oil and they have chosen to do nothing about it and now that the warranty is up they tell me I have to have a new engine and that is why it keeps burning out catalytic converters but they won't do anything to help me get it fixed I do not recommend that anyone ever ever buy a Hyundai Tucson or otherwise.

There is a design flaw resulting in massive oil consumption. I have had engine lights come on as a result and there is no recall for this issue.

I bought this 2017 Tucson with about 20,000 miles on the odometer. That was about 4-5 years ago. SO FAR, I've only had 1 minor issue with a rear brake light. My concerns are mostly about all the bad press about engine problems. I've had all the recalls done, but on my long drives in spring and fall, I can't help worrying about those engine concerns.

Bought our Tucson from them because had a 2001 sonota that was great. With this brand new 2017 Tucson that still only has 17,000 miles. We have had it at the dealership 3 times over past 6 months for same problem noise when starting car noise from transmission when driving and car has rough idle at stop each time they keep it for 3-5 weeks don’t offer a car to use while it’s there keep giving it back to us with same issue not resolved you have to leave multiple messages to get a call back horrible customer service they rude when my wife and have spoken to different people from here. No confidence in mechanics that they can’t seem to fix it and return it to us with problems not resolved. Even managers don’t return calls. Have been back 2 more times just got car back again and with 15 miles noise is back. Told by dealer we can leave it again if we want safe to drive with noise don’t know what it is. They also charged us for new air filter and fuel injection cleaning to see if that resolved it. When it didn’t wasn’t refunded. Don’t even want it anymore would prefer my money back or trade in for new one since we can’t drive this one and it can’t be fixed right it’s a lemon but have not been given that option may have to contact an attorney or go to the news so every one can see how long time customer treated. Complained to corporate also was told over 2 weeks ago they would call m back. No call back still despite us leaving multiple messages.

I bought this new in 2017, and thought I had found my dream car at a decent price. It's not super comfortable for a tall person, but I enjoyed driving it. Other than the right-side headlight going out a couple of times, it gave me zero problems. I changed the oil every 3,000 miles and did all scheduled maintanence. At 130,000 miles on the way home from work, the engine started making a ticking sound and by the time I got home it had turned into a knocking sound that resembled a diesel engine. Estimate for an install of a USED engine is $9300! I still have 3 payments on this piece of JUNK. Don't believe me? Just Google search "2017 Hyundai Tucson engine problems." It's the Chevy Vega of modern small SUVs.
