Hyundai Tucson
Model Overview
Formerly Hyundai's smallest crossover model, the compact Tucson is now the middle child of the brand's crossover lineup. As is Hyundai's way, the Tuscon is a strong value in a competitive vehicle class. And if it's not the newest design in the category (as of 2020), the Tuscon hides that well with sharp styling, a nicely-done interior and user-friendly technology.

Overall Score
Our Tucson was a nice SUV for many years. The first few years of ownership were great and it worked well. I was very impressed as to how good it worked. After the factory warranty ran out it was still fine but would quickly start to fail.
Over the past few years since about 2017, the Tucson has gone downhill. I'm not sure what's going on but its just starting to fall apart at an increasing rate.
I'd like to go back to Hyundai but I have lost faith in the brand. Once you get near the 100K mark, it just starts falling apart.

On certain vehicles, the secondary hood latch can potentially disengage due to a tolerance build-up between the latch and catch mechanisms. If the vehicle were to be driven with the primary hood latch disengaged, there is a potential that the secondary hood latch may not hold the hood closed as designed while the vehicle is in motion. If this were to occur, it could compromise the driver’s ability to see the road and its users, as well as cause damage to the windshield. These issues could result in a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will replace the secondary hood latch catch with a revised component. Note: There would be a visual warning in the instrument cluster to indicate that the primary latch would be disengaged, and for “Limited” and “Ultimate” trim models, there would be an additional audible warning.

On certain vehicles, the stop lamp switch may have been incorrectly installed during vehicle assembly. This could prevent proper brake lamp operation. Failure of the brake lamps to illuminate when the brakes are applied may result in the following road users being unaware of the driver's intentions, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury or death. A malfunction of the switch may also cause the brake lamps to remain illuminated when the brake pedal is released. Additionally, a faulty switch may affect the operation of the brake-transmission shift interlock on automatic transmission-equipped vehicles so that the transmission shifter would not be able to be shifted out of PARK position. It may also cause the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) light to illuminate, and it may not deactivate the cruise control when the brake pedal is depressed.

On certain vehicles, if a small statured adult driver, not wearing a seatbelt, is involved in a frontal or near frontal crash, deployment of the driver airbag may result in an insufficient margin of compliance as measured by the test dummy in the US Government fifth percentile female Out-Of-Position test.
