2025 Hyundai TUCSON consumer reviews

Software failures galore. Plus the TERRIBLE way the “coffee break” warnings fire off….No way to stop them. GPS Tracking unit in every vehicle -so your driving data goes Korea every night. SO awful.

I bought a 2025 Hyundai tucson and it turns out to be a lemon car.Six month now awaiting a refund.The dealership cannot help it sat in the shop for 5 months. Still same problem they pretend they fixed it

Have owned several hyundais and decided as we were getting older to buy a Tucson which is a smaller model and we bought the hybrid. I am astonished at how many problems we have encountered with the overly sensitive safety features. Especially problematic is the forward assist safety feature linked to a camera on the steering column. It goes off if you wear sunglasses, change your head position, or even try to change the radio. The coffee break light comes on arbitrarily and often. I get dangerous phantom breaking because of the safety features. I love Hyundai products. I am so disappointed in this car and now that I've talked to other people who have owned similar vehicles I have found out that it is not an isolated incidence. We no longer use the cruise control or Lane assist functions in this car at all and have all the safety features turned off and have to reset them each time we start the car because some of them reinstate. I would never tell somebody not to buy a Hyundai but if you're going to buy a Hyundai Tucson I would strongly recommend you take it for a sustained test drive and put the cruise control on and the lane assist function on. My guess is that in 10 minutes you will decide to purchase a different make and model

Although this is a two star review, the rating is due to my personal experience, and others may not experience the same problem. Hyundai is now installing in-cabin cameras to monitor the driver’s attention. If the system believes the driver’s attention is not on the road it will shut off the cruise control, and I believe, the lane keeping also. The idea is to force the driver to interact with the vehicle. However, there are several reasons the cruise control and other safety features can be rendered inoperable, even when the driver’s attention is focused on the road. They will not disclose this. Some reasons, according to Hyundai bulletins are dark tinted sunglasses, polarized sunglasses, some prescription eyewear, sitting too close to the steering wheel, sitting too far from the steering wheel, and one that Hyundai apparently never tested for: vision conditions, such as the astigmatism (lazy eye) that I have. The system interprets this as an inattentive situation, rendering the systems unusable. Two Hyundai service departments confirmed the system worked as designed, so I was the owner of a $40k new car that had inoperable safety and convenience systems for me, but it gets worse. Hyundai corporate apologized for my difficulties, but stated there was nothing they could do as far as compensation because I did not purchase the car from them! I purchased it from a Hyundai dealership, and they are not part of Hyundai because they are privately owned. The low rating is for having inadequately tested systems and refusing to accept any responsibility. Otherwise, it was a very nice vehicle.

Absolutely love purchasing this car I love the interior and how it drives and love the color of it it’s my dream car very satisfied

I love this car. Very attractive and loaded with the latest technology. You get a lot for your money. Love all the personal options and upgrades.

I just bought it. How would I know how reliable it is? We're used to a car with a V8, but bought this for economy and the warranty. It' slightly underpowered but not a deal breaker. The Auto stop start feature is a royal pain. It's 95+ degrees, We're at a series of long red lights. The engine stops, the A/C is running, the engines heats up, the car starts for the A/C compressor, stops, starts, stops, stops, starts, stops, starts, stops, starts, stops, starts, stops, starts, stops, starts, (wasn't that annoying? YES IT IS!) and starts when I release the brakes. This goes on all afternoon. I've worked on cars for 65 years and you will never convince me it won't wear out the battery and starter prematurely. I want that mess disabled. We will put less than 6,000 miles per year on this car. I doubt we saved $,20 in gas compared to a $600 battery/starter replacement bill.

Was just looking, not interested , went to Lester Glenn of Tom’s river, the salesman Matt was a pleasure to deal with as was everyone we came in contact with, great car , good price and value

I've only owned it for less than 2 months but so far I love it! It's a lovely car, has every amenity you could think of (heated seats front and back, heated steering wheel, auto tailgate lift, etc., and is loaded with safety features. My only complaint is the "take a break" comes on constantly and you can't disable it.

I bought 15 days ago. Yesterday, my wife asked me to add water to the wipers. When I opened the hood, I saw the the hood insolation falling apart disintegrating. On the center the hood exposed to the engine heat. I have to take to the dealer
