2025 HYUNDAI TUCSON

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:CRITICAL FASTENERS

Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2025-2026 Tucson and Santa Fe vehicles. The connecting rod bolts in the engine may have been improperly tightened, which can cause a loss of drive power and engine damage, possibly resulting in an oil leak.

Risk: A loss of drive power increases the risk of a crash. An oil leak in the presence of hot engine components can increase the risk of an engine compartment fire.

EQUIPMENT:OTHER:LABELS

Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2025 Tucson vehicles. The glove box air bag warning label may be missing. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection."

Risk: Without the glove box label, operators may be unaware of the increased risks that an air bag poses to an infant or child in the front seat, increasing the risk of injury to occupants.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Hybrid System Failure at 4,052 miles. HPCU replaced. Issues remain. Recommending replacement of hybrid battery. DTC codes: P1A9096, P0B3B00, P0A0A12 Dealership has all the maintenance records as this is still unresolved and vehicle remains there.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

I was driving the vehicle at 30 MPH when the power to the instrument cluster, infotainment center and headlights went out for approximately 1-2 seconds before recovering. Engine maintained power and acceleration during this period. During blackout I was unable to view speedometer nor other instrument information.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Intermittent failure of HUD and instrument cluster. HUD disappears from view and instrument cluster goes dark. Unable to read speedometer and information. All warning lights are lit. Cluster has a message no signal. Dealer has on order a replacement wire harness. Problem started after 1 month and 1000 miles. Replacement part on back order will take several weeks. Loaner car has been provided. No injuries or property damage.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS

I have had two incidents with this vehicle (that I have owned for less than 90 days) that have raised safety concerns. Both involved the loss of all information on the "instrument panel" AKA dashboard. In the first (August 18, 2025), all of the warning lights came on, then the screen went dark - there was no information on the two screens and no head's up display. This happened while I was on the highway doing about 65 mph. After I was able to pull over safely, it took several attempts to get the vehicle started again and in gear. I took it to the dealer the next day and they were unable to replicate the issue and saw no codes. The second episode occurred yesterday (9/6/25). This time the screen went dark except for a large red warning "NO SIGNAL". The screen came back after a few moments; I am taking it to the dealer tomorrow. Both of these involved losing all information as to the speed of the vehicle - which I believe is a safety issue. Both of these issues have also been reported by others on Facebook ("Hyundai Owners") since late last year and it appears to be some sort of electrical issue but there has been no TSB or recall by Hyundai yet.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

While driving my 2025 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid, the vehicle suddenly lost power without warning. On August 29, 2025 , while traveling at approximately 65 mph on a highway, the vehicle disengaged from cruise control and the accelerator became unresponsive. Later thatt day, it happened again, but this time it was on a surface street because I feared an accident on the highway. The engine went into idle, and I was unable to accelerate. I was forced to coast to a stop in a potentially unsafe situation. This also happened on August 23, 2025 in a parking lot. The issue occurs randomly and without any prior warnings or error codes. I am concerned about the safety risk of losing propulsion at highway speeds. The dealership has been unable to reproduce the issue.

LANE DEPARTURE: ASSIST

2025 Hyundai Tucson SEL Convenience The car is equipped with FAW Forward Attention Warning System which is supposed to give a warning if the driver's focus is diverted from looking at the road. The problem is that while driving in what Hyundai calls HDA (Highway Driving Assist) which activates when the car is placed in adaptive cruise control (cruise control that keeps the vehicle at a set speed and distance from the cars ahead) and lane driving assist (driving assist to keep the vehicle centered in the lane) the car issues far too many false warnings telling the driver to "keep your eyes on the road". While in HDA, the car monitors the driver's eyes and head position using a driver facing camera, part of the FAW (Forward Attention Warning system) or DDMS (Direct Driver Monitoring System) to assure the driver is focused on the road ahead. However, in the 2025 Hyundai, this system is so flawed that the car is practically undrivable in the HDA mode with cruise control and lane driving assist engaged issuing too many false warnings, that the driver is not focusing on the road. The multiple warnings, in some cases every few seconds, is extremely distracting taking the driver's attention away from safely controlling the vehicle. The system which is intended to make the vehicle safer is instead such a distraction it makes the car unsafe due to the constant false warnings requiring driver attention to address them and away from safely operating the vehicle.

STEERING

My Tucson was involved in a MVA. I was hit in the rear end by another SUV on the rear back passenger side of the vehicle. During impact, the steering wheel literally detached from the dashboard in my driver's hands leaving us with no way to steer or maneuver the vehicle. The result of this safety failure could have lead to serious injury or death of myself, my driver or anybody in the path of the vehicle. We did have hit anything. There is zero front or side damage to the Tucson. No airbags deployed, not even the one in the steering wheel. There were no warning lights or anything indicating there was a problem w the vehicle. I called the dealership and filed a complaint with Hyundai consumer affairs. They had an inspector go inspect the vehicle and followed up w a letter stating the vehicle did as it was designed to. The vehicle was deemed a total loss from my insurance company. It is currently sitting in impound and unsure if it is available for future inspection. There was zero issues with the vehicle prior to this incident other than a stone chip to the windshield that was due to be replaced. This vehicle was only 5 months old.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Heads up display and gauge cluster will intermittently flicker and/or reboot. When gauge cluster comes back on it will sometimes have all warning lights stay on. Have had it happen once where gauge cluster rebooted and then flashed "No Signal" while repeatedly rebooting. Both HUD and Gauge cluster do shut off together sometimes so I am no longer able to see my speed when that does happen

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

The instrument panel side of the infotainment screen has gone completely black on multiple times . The heads up display flickers and goes out, therefore, no way to see what speed I’m going.. extremely dangerous.. also all warning “dash” lights come on. I have A video of the dash lights on and the screen going black and coming back on.. I dont Make it a habit of driving with phone in hand. Your system will not let me upload my videos!

BACK OVER PREVENTION: WARNINGS

The computerized "Safety" features on this car can not be turned off. They pose a hazard in a number of ways from when the car is stopped to driving on multi-lane highways. For instance, the adaptive cruise control is linked to an over the air network. If that link is "cut" by going through the mountains, cruise control suddenly quits; this has happened while passing a vehicle over a mountain pass. When attempting to pull out from a parking spot, another driver stopped to wait for me because they wanted my parking spot. My car stopped by itself, sounded a loud noise, steering wheel shook, my wife screamed at the noise, and I had to shift out of reverse and shift back into it and attempt to leave the parking spot. When driving in the mountains on curvy mountain roads, my eyes shift around a great deal to keep on top of the road and traffic conditions. This sets off the "its time to take a coffee break" announcement with accompanying dinging. This continues every few minutes until I am out of the mountains - it is distracting at the least. If the adaptive cruise has slowed the car down because of slower traffic ahead, and after a car passes in the outer lane, you pull into that lane to pass the slower car; but when you do, my car accelerates quickly to bring the speed up to the speed set on the cruise control. If the car that just passed is too close, this acceleration sends us hurling toward the other car. I would like the ability to turn these "safety" features OFF. But that is NOT POSSIBLE with the 2025 model - while it was in earlier models. Though I recently purchased this car, I am investigating other cars to replace it almost immediately because I want to be able to drive without these "safety" features making poor decisions and putting my life in danger.

I purchased a brand-new Hyundai vehicle on [XXX] from Dublin Hyundai. Since purchase, the vehicle has exhibited repeated, serious defects that compromised the safety of my [XXX] baby and family. Timeline of Events: [XXX] – Vehicle purchased new. Safety concerns arose within weeks of ownership. July 16, 2025 – Vehicle dropped off for major issues: camera display failures, heads-up display malfunctions, and random security errors. Vehicle remained in service for over two weeks. August 2, 2025 – Returned with the check engine light on and a scratch on the deck. August 3–4, 2025 – Dropped off again; dealership instructed that the fuel level must remain between 50–70%. August 11, 2025 – Dropped off again; a loaner vehicle provided was unsafe — gear shift failure, body control system errors, infotainment failure, and inability to lock the vehicle. This put my baby’s safety at direct risk as the loaner could not be secured or reliably driven. August 19, 2025 – Vehicle returned with new scratches and multiple issues still unresolved. Late August 2025–Present – Vehicle was relocated to San Jose without my consent. I only know its location from the Hyundai app, which frequently alerts: “Battery level is below normal. Please check that vehicle lights and accessories are switched off to avoid battery drain.” I have not been provided proper updates from Hyundai or the dealership. Safety Risk: Repeated mechanical and electronic failures in both the new vehicle and the loaner. Vehicle is unreliable, unpredictable, and unsafe for transporting a young child. Manufacturer and dealer have failed to provide a safe, operable vehicle despite multiple repair attempts. I am filing this complaint because these issues pose a serious safety risk to me, my infant child, and other drivers on the road.

STRUCTURE:BODY

On 08/31/2025, I was involved in an accident while driving my 2025 Hyundai Tucson. While attempting to change lanes at highway speed, the driver behind me failed to see my turn signal and collided with my vehicle. I believe the cause was the unusually low placement of the rear bumper-mounted turn signals, which creates a direct visibility flaw. The Tucson’s turn signals are mounted low on the rear bumper instead of at eye level within the taillight assembly. This design makes them especially difficult to see in two critical conditions: Bright Sunlight: The low-mounted signals are easily washed out in daytime conditions, reducing visibility to following drivers. Low Light/Traffic Conditions: At night or in heavy traffic, larger vehicles and brake light glare further obscure the signals. In my case, the driver behind me could not see my intent to switch lanes, and despite my efforts to avoid a collision, the lack of visible signaling directly led to a frontal driver’s side impact. This design presents an ongoing highway safety hazard: Poor Visibility: Low placement reduces signal recognition in both bright and low light. Accident Risk: My collision demonstrates the real-world consequences of this flaw. Durability Concerns: Bumper-level placement exposes wiring to water, debris, and road wear, raising the risk of malfunction. Although the accident resulted in minor damage, the potential for severe outcomes at highway speeds is significant. I respectfully request NHTSA to investigate this design flaw and evaluate whether corrective action (recall, retrofit, or advisory) is warranted. UNKNOWN if Hyundai is currently addressing this issue, but concerns about rear blinker visibility have been widely reported among Tucson owners and auto safety forums.

My dashboard will black out, my HUD display will flicker or just go out. All of my indicator lights for vehicle issues all light up and stay lit up.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS

This vehicle is a pile of hot garbage. Front end collision system slams on the brakes when you are not even close to hitting something in front of you plus it will auto brake randomly but often. I was backing into a parking spot and someone walked in front of the car and it slammed on the brakes. Dealer says only way to fix this is to turn the entire safety system off. The coffee break warning has zero rhyme or reason and will go off 10+ times in a trip even though I am not distracted and use my turn signal changing lanes. Dealer states there is no way to turn this off. Dashboard randomly flashes and goes dark along with all lighting in and outside the vehicle. Dealer was unable to duplicate the problem and returned the car with no fix. Drove the car in the rain for the first time and dashboard came up with a ton of errors and crash detection turned off. This is new and will be taking the car in for this and is now the reason I am filing another complaint. This vehicle is NOT safe and can be very scary to drive because you don't know when it will just take over for you.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS

4th occurrence of the forward assistance warning system activating when we were at a slow speed with plenty of room to stop and the brakes engaged suddenly to stop the car and today someone slammed into the rear of our car. This is extremely frightening and should never happen at slow speeds when there is ample time to stop. My husband doesn't even want to drive this car again as he's afraid we may be killed. I see on the reddit site that this is happening to others too. Hyundai must fix this issue ASAP. You can temporarily stop this from working but everytime you stop & turn off car you must do it again. Police were called & report filed. We have to get our car fixed now.

The Hyundai Tucson's "Consider taking a break" advisory is triggered by the Driver Attention Warning (DAW) system. This warning happens so frequently that it is more than an annoyance, but a safety issue, because the driver must continually take their eyes off the road to examine what the vehicle is complaining about, and therefore could conceivably be the cause of a crash. Dealer is aware of issue. See attached technical service bulletin. The problem is easily reproducible.

On long road trip from TX to MA Started before dawn and route initially [XXX] . With sunrise route was into sun and so I used my sun glasses. Within a few minutes a warning gong and light on instrument panel litup. I did not know what the cause was and then unannounced the Adaptive cruise control lane holding and steering shut off and the vehicle seemed to brake quite vigorously. There were a few cars behind me and due to my vehicle suddenly slowing down they had to brake unexpectedly. They then honked at me and passed quite aggressively and gesturing their displeasure with me. I called hyundai tech support they where of no help. I asked for a manager - who called back and I was told it is because I used my sun glasses! I was told it would always happen if sunglasses where used and I could not cancel this feature without disabiling the "safety" features that i considered when purchasing the vehicle on 24th [XXX]. I was told I should not use polarized glasses which my pair Is Not in any event. I requested to speak to a more senior rep and the next day received call from a hyundai rep who stated there was nothing I could to over come this nuisance feature and if I didnt like it I should not have bought the car. I stated I did not know this could or would happen ! In addition every 5 to 10 minutes a warning gong,light and speech notice keeps on popping up and states "I need a rest". In my opinion too, It is also a safety issue as it is a nuisance and consistant and at inopportune times blocking gps commands some times etc. These features, in my opnion, are too frequent too persistant and not helpful. There should be a way for the owner-drver too disable the announcements but have the benefit of the features ie Adaptive Cruise Lane and Steering etc without the car deciding not to allow because sunglasses are needed. That does not enhance safety in my opinion. In my opinion the way it is programmed it is a safety hazard Just suddenly slowing down INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMA

I was told I should not use polarized glasses which my pair Is Not in any event. I requested to speak to a more senior rep and the next day received call from a hyundai rep who stated there was nothing I could to over come this nuisance feature and if I didnt like it I should not have bought the car. I stated I did not know this could or would happen ! In addition every 5 to 10 minutes a warning gong,light and speech notice keeps on popping up and states "I need a rest". In my opinion too, It is also a safety issue as it is a nuisance and consistant and at inopportune times blocking gps commands some times etc. These features, in my opnion, are too frequent too persistant and not helpful. There should be a way for the owner-drver too disable the announcements but have the benefit of the features ie Adaptive Cruise Lane and Steering etc without the car deciding not to allow because sunglasses are needed. That does not enhance safety in my opinion. In my opinion the way it is programmed it is a safety hazard Just suddenly slowing down INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMA

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING

My 2025 Hyundai Tucson had approximately 150 miles when the forward collision warning system has started to provide false warnings. The first event happened as I was pulling out of a parking lot where there was a dip in pavement between the lot and road. The dip in the pavement was interpreted as an object about to cause impact so my car automatically applied full braking. I almost got hit from the car behind me who was not expecting me to stop. Now my car has 406 miles on it and I routinely receive warnings about collisions due to nearby cars doing U-turns or cars which I will definitely not hit. A few times it has applied braking which has almost caused several accidents from cars behind me not expecting me to stop.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS

When driving slowly on the highway and changing lanes the car sensed that we were too close to the car in front of us and completely stopped the vehicle. We were not all that close to the car in front of us and we were nearly hit by the car behind us as we stopped. We are concerned that this could happen any time. The car should never stop on its own.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING

This is a very real safety concern. On multiple occasions, the automatic emergency braking (Forward Collision Avoidance Assist) feature of my 2025 Tucson Hybrid was activated in a completely unnecessary situation, endangering myself and drivers following behind me. If a car in front of me brakes suddenly, or a car merges quickly into my lane, which happens ALL the time as everyone has experienced, my car takes it upon itself to fully SLAM on the brakes without warning. Each time, it was in a situation where I could have easily slowed the car down incrementally so as to not put drivers behind me at risk of rear-ending my car. This feature can be temporarily disabled in settings, but it AUTOMATICALLY reactivates when the car is turned off then back on. This is a crash waiting to happen and it is unsafe to drive in its current state unless the feature is turned off manually every single time I start up my car. At the very least, there must be a PERMANENT way to turn of FCA.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING

My car stopped due to the emergency braking system when a car slowed down in front of me. There was no danger of me hitting them, we were in a turning lane proceeding slowly through a green light. My car stopped and wouldn't start moving again for more time than the person behind me would have expected. This isn't the first time, but it's my first time reporting it. I'm worried that I'm going to be hit by another car at some point.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

The message “Consider taking a coffee break” will pop up just 15 minutes into a trip. This message beeps prior to flashing on the screen which causes us to take our eyes off the road to determine what is beeping and continues to “alert” us often during our travels. Hyundai has not provided a way for this warning to be deactivated. Hyundai has way too many messages beeping and appearing on the screen that causes distractions and has not provided a way to turn them off. As for the speed control, my ophthalmologist suggested I wear dark sunglasses due to issues I have in bright sunlight. The speed control will actually turn off if I wear dark sunglasses because the onboard camera cannot see my eyes. Also, the speed control will turn off if I’m making a turn and my arm gets in the way of the camera. This is extremely dangerous that the speed control just stops. We also will get beeps and a message on the screen if the camera cannot see our eyes, even when we are looking straight ahead. Again, this causes us to see what is beeping and what the message says. This is a distraction that causes us to take our eyes off the road. Terrible design.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS

I have raised issues with Hyundai with the first week of driving this Tucson Hybrid. I have ask repeatedly to get the collision control turned off, The dealership said they could not turn it off with permission form Hyundai. Hyundai so called customer service escalated it now several times and not a single call back. I was assigned a specialist named Lejo ,National Consumer Affairs, Hyundai Motor America 714-627-9707. Because he is no longer able to help he told me it was escalated and got yet to this day to hear back from anyone. This vehicle has tried to kill us several times and the dealership and Hyundai have been made aware of what it has done. Slamming on the breaks and warning collision, pulling you almost in the ditch because it was raining? This has happen several times. The same thing when a cars turns the corner and is leaving the main road and as i move to the passing lane the car said warning and actually pulled us back behind the car we were passing and then hit the brakes and almost rear ended to car we were trying to avoid. This system can be manually be turned off by me but comes on each time the vehicle is started again. I am only asking that Hyundai permanently shut it off for the duration of my lease. Because of the safety issues with this 2025 Tucson Hybrid I feel it necessary to inform the public and HHTSA. If Hyundai does not turn it off then they need to be prepared to buy back the lease, Hyundai is well aware of the problems as they have issued a TSB 25-GI-017H Apparently you only are to drive away from the sun ,avoid rain,fog and snow?

The Heads Up Display and Digital Instrument Panel suddenly go blank as if switched off resulting in no speedometer, tachometer, malfunction indicator lamps, temperature gauge, TPMS, and integrated ADAS components including lane keeping, blind spot monitoring, adaptive cruise control, 360 camera functionality. These failures are intermittent and can last for seconds or minutes while operating the vehicle. Onset seems to be related to ambient temperatures, routine ride disturbances, acceleration and deceleration activities in the normal course of vehicle operation. The issue has been a topic of discussion on several online owners forums. Owners report that Hyundai dealers have attempted to resolve this issue unsuccessfully with harness replacement, pin and connector retensioning efforts, and display replacement.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL

I recently purchased this car and just took it on our first highway trip of about 1100 miles. I experienced Three Problems that are a safety concern. 1. "Need to take a Coffee Break Notification." This comes on frequently and is distracting. No need to have that come on. When driving in heavy traffic at speed, this is too distracting. There is no way to turn it off. 2. Camera focused on the driver. If I take a drink from my water bottle, looking around the water bottle to see the road, the camera can not see my face/eyes. It then shuts off my cruise control, makes a noise, scares my wife, and distracts me from driving. This has happened to me in heavy urban traffic going through cities on my last trip. 3. The cruise control is linked to communication from outside the car. When driving in the mountains, there are times when the signal is lost, the cruise control stops working, the car emits a noise signally a problem, my wife screams, I lose concentration on what is going on as the car decelerates quickly and the semi truck behind me comes very close to the rear of the car. Potential accident caused by this silly system. There is no way to disable "adaptive cruise control" and resort to a system that does not rely on outside communication. The car has about 3000 miles on the odometer and I am ready to trade it in/get rid of it. I am greatly disappointed.

The Forward Collision is not a safety feature. This is a real problem and now I am scared of this braking design. I now deactivate this feature every time I turn the car on because there is no way to permanently dismantle this. Hyundai needs a recall to correct this.

I was driving with my forward collision assistance (FCA) disabled via the cars setup menu. The dashboard had an indicator light on confirming the FCA was off. I was making a turn within a strip center parking lot and the car applied the brakes and the dashboard showed the “emergency braking” warning. As I was turning left into a lane with parked cars, a person was walking behind their car at least 1-2 car lengths in front of me on my right side. I’m sure this triggered the warning. 1) the situation did not call for applying the brakes. 2) the FCA was OFF! I have been disabling the FCA off each time I get in the car because of three other instances of unexpected and unnecessary full stop braking. See my previous report to NHTSA, same car.

After parking at the dealer service center, I told my service rep what happened, and when she restarted the vehicle, the lights were still on. I was immediately given a loaner. After making the repair, the mechanic asked to keep the vehicle to drive for a few days to make sure the problem didn't come back. I know these problems can reappear, even after they are fixed. I don't want to drive the car if the safety lights are all illuminated, but I also don't want to be stuck someplace without transportation.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS

I’ve had the car for 7 months. Three (3) times the forward collision avoidance (FCA) has engaged (full stop braking) when it was absolutely not necessary. All three times occurred while driving less than 30 mph on city side streets in Houston, TX. On the first and third occasions there was a car in front of me but that car and my car were both slowing down as we approached a red light. My car suddenly slammed on the brakes; I did not hit the car in front nor was I hit from behind. On the second occasion, I was making a right turn and the FCA slammed on the brakes and I was hit from behind. There was no damage to an older model car that hit me. My car had $785 in damage repairs. No insurance claim was filed. After incident #2 ( the one with damage) I adjusted the sensitivity of the FCA to have a slower reaction. It didn’t help as I had a third incident. My make/model will not let me permanently disable the FCA. After incident #3, I have been trying to remember to disable the FCA each time I start the car. I have not reported this to the dealer. I will be bringing the car to the dealer next week for this issue. The date below is for the incident when I got hit.

Main dash (with speedometer and other driver notifications) and HUD went black. Blinking "No Signal" on 7/27/2025. Came back on after extended power off, but is flickering in and out when I go over a bump. All warning lights will light up, or the screen will go blank with "No Signal" or restart as if I had just turned on the car. HUD comes in and out. Infotainment is working fine.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL

The contact owns a 2025 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated while driving approximately 35 MPH, the instrument cluster went black; however, the radio was still playing. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact stated that the failure was intermittent and occurred while driving at various speeds. The contact stated that occasionally the failure lasted for 20 minutes before the instrument cluster returned to normal function. The contact had taken the vehicle to a local dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the coaxial cable needed to be adjusted. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure reoccurred. The contact had taken the vehicle back to the same dealer who diagnosed the vehicle and informed the contact that the instrument cluster wiring harness needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 5,000.

On Friday, [XXX], around [XXX] PM while traveling home my dashboard lights on the instruments panel and windshield pop up display were out, then back on, then out again, and then back on. On Saturday, [XXX], I traveled to another area about an hour away and all was fine, but on the way home it went out at least 12 times. Sometimes the dashboard light would come back up but not the pop-up display. When these go out I can not see my speed or any alerts that may possibly come up.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING

Driving through a green light, no car in front of me, collision avoidance activated and applied full brake. If a car had been close behind me I would have been rear ended.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

The heads up display and dashboard turns off and on, sometimes going black for 20 min at a time. This results in not having a speedometer or gas gauge, which makes it an unsafe vehicle to drive. Dealer has not been able to fix, despite multiple repair attempts. There are many Hyundai Tucson Hybrid Limited owners reporting identical issues online. Identification of affected vehicles, determination of an effective repair, and recalls are needed to ensure safety.

The dash cluster stops working (cant see your speed or other info) goes out for a second and then comes back on. It continues to randomly do this. Once it does this the HUD heads up display goes out as well

Subject: Ongoing Electrical and Safety Issues with 2025 Hyundai Tucson Limited Complaint Description: I am reporting a recurring and serious safety issue with my 2025 Hyundai Tucson Limited. I am the original owner and purchased the vehicle brand new, directly off the truck. It has now been to the dealership four separate times for the same persistent “Check User Authentication” electrical issue. Most recently, the driver display screen went completely blank while driving and flashed a green “No Signal” warning. This made it impossible to see speed, warning indicators, fuel level, or other critical driving information. Losing all visibility of this data while in motion is extremely dangerous and creates a serious safety risk. The dealership first said it was caused by loose coax cables from the factory, but the problem continues. I also experienced a sudden, complete electrical failure while driving. The instrument cluster and infotainment shut off, speakers went dead, and all charging ports lost power. The Head-Up Display (HUD) also failed during this same event. Restarting the car temporarily restored function, but the failure happened randomly and without explanation. The air conditioning system now loses power and restarts while driving. The dealership has had the vehicle for over a month with no resolution. Hyundai corporate is involved with multiple case numbers, but no permanent fix has been found. The most alarming event was when every major dash warning light came on at once: ABS, Power Steering, Traction Control, Stability Control, AFS, EPB, and Battery. These lights stayed on even after shutting off the vehicle and fully drained the battery. These repeated failures pose a serious threat to driver and passenger safety. I request that NHTSA investigate these issues, as they may affect more 2025 Tucson models.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING

On two different occasions (the 2nd one happened today), the automatic emergency braking system has deployed. The first time, I was in the right lane and a car passing me in the left lane pulled in front of me. I softly applied my brakes as that was all that was required. The automatic braking system then slammed on the brakes unnecessarily - causing the car behind me to almost hit me. Then, today, I was driving down the road and the car ahead was taking a right turn. Again, I softly applied the brakes. Then - the automatic braking system slammed on the brakes. No one else was near by so it there was no accident - but if there had been a car behind me, it would have likely hit me. This is twice that the automatic braking system was activated unnecessarily and much too hard - almost causing an accident.

ENGINE

On June 30, 2025, I was driving at about 55 mph with the smart cruise on. A message appeared on the left side of the dash (in the left circular screen) that said “Conditions for smart cruise have not been met”. And the cruise turned off, Then a second message appeared that said the engine has been put on idle. At that time I tried to use the gas pedal and got no response. Fortunately I was near a parking lot on my left and had enough momentum to pull in and park. I turned the Tucson off and restarted it and was able to continue to drive. I took the Tucson to the dealer and they tried to duplicate the issue, but were unable to do so. Then the ran a diagnostic, but said it indicated everything came back as normal. I purchased this Tucson Limited hybrid on 1/23/2025 so the fact that the dealer couldn’t duplicate the incident didn’t surprise me. I believe that this was caused by a software problem even though the diagnosis by the dealer indicated everything was normal and in range. However, I believe that their equipment and/or their technical expertise was insufficient to identify the problem. You can imagine the danger if this occurs on an interstate or other highway where speeds are as high as 65 to 70 & higher by some drivers.

There are several electrical issues occurring that have put me in danger when driving. First the screen both on the windshield and the speedometer screen randomly go out completely and I have no idea how fast I am going or any other important features like how much gas my vehicle has, if the vehicle is over heating. The forward/ break feature has gone off multiple times and the vehicle has stopped in the middle of traffic and the freeway with zero warning and with several car lengths between me and the car in front of me. Almost hit from behind when this happens and has put the vehicle in park on the freeway. Steering wheel has jerked to the side when driving making the vehicle almost hit curbs and other vehicles. Has come back to my vehicle that is off and locked and the ac has been running causing the engine to be hot. All the warning lights have turned on and won't go off even after stopping and restarting the vehicle. The vehicle is currently at the dealership with them having to answer to the problem, stating hyundai is aware of the issues but does not know how to fix it. I bought the car in April 2025 and there is just under 2800 miles on the vehicle.

Cannot use the cruise control when wearing my sunglasses. Sunglasses protect the eyes from sun damage and this is highly recommended by my ophthalmologist. This makes the protection provided by the eye data unsafe as I have to chose either cruise or sun protection. Makes no safety sense.

I purchased a new 2025 Tucson Limited Hybrid model. I owned it for five days when the dash display went blank, leaving me without any speedometer, warning indicators, or safety features, such as lane departure warnings. There is a manufacturers bulletin on this defect. Took it back to the dealer, and they tried to sort it out. They kept the car for a week and indicated that it was fixed. I picked up the car, and in 2 blocks it did the same thing. Car is now back at the dealer. I believe this is a significant safety concern, as all safety features should be visible, especially the speedometer.

BACK OVER PREVENTION: WARNINGS

Not sure what failed. At around 8:30 am on a sunny clear day the driver was maneuvering slowly up a ramp between first and second floors of a parking garage at the college campus where the driver works. Driver paused the vehicle and slowly turned to the right to park in an open spot about halfway up the ramp. There was a large concrete pillar to the right of the parking spot and a low steel cable wall at the end of the parking space along the inner structure of the garage. While turning into the space, the driver described suddenly feeling "a loss of control of the vehicle" wherein it "felt like it was in neutral and wouldn't stop". The car hit the wall with extreme force, enough for resulting in minor injuries, damaging the frond end and a total loss to the vehicle. The force was enough to rebound the car back approximately 30 feet from the wall after impact. No help or warnings from the collision detection mechanisms was apparent. In a single prior time during the tenure of ownership (approximately 6 months) the collision detection system had intervened and manually stopped the vehicle on its own due to a car that had erroneously driven in front of the vehicle too closely. The car's lane assist successfully kept itself in lanes on most occasions. Several software related notices on the car dash had been reported during the tenure of ownership and in no case was the dealership able to figure out what was wrong in any of the scenarios, one of the software notices on the dash did end up just "going away" after some time.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING

The Automatic Emergency Braking system went off when there was no reason for it to. It seems to think I am closer to vehicles than I actually am. It frequently warns that I need to brake when I don't need to, either because I am already stopped or because the vehicle that had previously been in front of me changed lanes. Today the vehicle braked so hard that I thought I had been in an accident for a minute. There was appropriate clearance between my car and the car in front of me and no reason to auto brake. I now have wipe lash. Hopefully they recall and fix this issue ASAP.

The Driver Attention Warning comes on within seconds when the in-cabin camera mounted on the steering wheel is unable to see my eyes, the SCC cuts off, and the vehicle suddenly starts breaking. This puts me and anyone behind me at risk. Both the dealership and Hyundai Motor Company have been unresponsive or unwilling to fix this widely known issue which is well documented in multiple owners' online chat groups. The dealership told me the manufacturer is responsible for fixing the problem.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS

1 forward collision unexpectedly slammed on the brakes when I was trying to go forward to make a left turn. There was no one in front of me nor each side of me. I had 2x4’s in my car that were thrusted forward damaging my dashboard and display. I was told to take it to the dealership on Monday 2 I was fine just hooked up, but the driver was pissed off at me thinking I was stopping short on him 3 randomly the rear sensor would go off telling me they are too close when I’m at a complete stop. It has randomly stopped short on me but I thought it might have just been an over sensitive sensor. I have previously owned an Ioniq 5 and the sensor would never stop going off even if I was 2 car lengths away. 4 the car is going back to the dealership on Monday so it has not been expected yet 5 exactly 6 days after purchasing the car the airbag indicator showed up on my dashboard while I was driving. I was used to the Ioniq 5 sensors always going on when I was stopped waiting for a green light that I just thought it was the same way. It had abruptly stopped on me three other times between the 6th and today the 21st. I have only had it for 3 weeks. I have never gotten any warnings before the car just slams the breaks on. After looking online about this issue I decided to make a report before I take it to the dealership so you have it on file. I am very disappointed with this vehicle and was so excited when I bought it. I have been a loyal customer of Hyundai since 2017 when I bought my first Ioniq and I have purchased 6 other cars for my family members since then. I still purchased the Tucson after having to take a 15,000 loss because the Ioniq 5 never held its value. Now I’m wondering if I should switch manufacturers

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS

If someone is making a right turn in front of me and I am on the brakes already slowing down The emergency braking will engage and lock the brakes to stop it It does not seem to detect the fact the car is making a turn that will be complete before you are up to them. This has happened 4 times now and I have almost been rear ended. I can duplicate it pretty much whenever I want and capture it on my dash cam

ENGINE

Battery Management System failed Safety-Could not drive on interstate. Very unsafe. Dealer inspected problem afterwards. Warning lights appeared at time of problem. No warnings before. No signs of problem before it happened. SYNOPSIS: After driving through a torrential thunderstorm on the interstate (06-13-25) and as we were getting ready to slow down for our exit on the interstate, we hit the brakes and our SUV gave us a warning. The warning said, "Battery Management System Discharge". The SUV is a hybrid. At this point the SUV locked into E V mode. Our SUV would only go 10 mph which was very dangerous. It should be able to go up to 35 mph in E V mode and then past that, switch into gas mode. As stated, we could only go about 10 mph. We made it to our exit and found a spot to pull off the ramp. We let the SUV sit for a few moments and turned it off. We let it sit for a minute and then turned the car back on. The SUV when we turned it back on gave us a check engine light and still would not go over 10 mph. Luckily we were stopping for dinner. We were able to proceed to our destination. After dinner around an hour or so, when turned the vehicle back on, the SUV still gave us a check engine light. but was able to drive normally and switch between E V and gas modes. We made it home safely at the end of the weekend on 06-15-25. On 6-16-25 we took the SUV to be looked at by the dealer we purchased it from. Our phone app showed code DTC P0AA600. We gave the code to the staff. The staff inspected the SUV. The report stated, "customer states stopped driving and there code P0AA600 Battery Warning Light NPF Could not duplicate problem. Tech scanned for codes Code P0AA600 was found as a history code. Tech checked live data and everything came back within spec. Followed the flow chart procedure for the code. Check for BMS isolation faults none found. Check 12volt battery. Battery is good". We drove it home and filed this report.

Every time there is morning condensation/dew or rain, my front collision warning does not work. A notification pops up, the symbol comes onto the dash and it takes a good 3-5 minutes depending on the severity of the weather to have the symbol and notification go away and work. Also, 98% of the time when my car was preset to turn on, the emergency brake automatically engages every time I get into the drivers seat.

Consider taking a break (coffee cup icon) continues to notify even if vehicle is correctly in lane. MAJOR DISTRACTION, have to constantly check instrument cluster. Even with lane assist OFF, issue still continues.Hyundai needs to upgrade software. On 2025 Tuscon sel model no way to turn notification off. On a 6 hour trip,notification went off every 4-5 minutes on interstate driving.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL

I bought a 2025 Hyundai Tucson with adaptive cruise control. The first time I used the cruise control I was on the highway with a lot of traffic. I was in pace with the traffic then the all of a sudden the cruise control shut off. The car suddenly started to slow down and I had to do some quick maneuvering not to get into an accident. I reset it again and after a half minute or so it shut down again. There was a warning message on the dash that said it couldn't see the driver's face. I was perplexed. It happened a few more times. I noticed a camera on the steering column aimed toward me. I was wearing sunglasses and thought that maybe it couldn't see my eyes. I took the sunglasses off and it stayed on. I took them off and it worked again. I reported it to the dealer. They said there was nothing wrong and that it was a safety issue. I talked to Hyundai corporate. They said to talk to the dealer who then told me to talk to Hyundai. Back and forth it went for months. They say you can shut off the feature but when you do it still happens. I was told not to wear sunglasses while driving (on the highway in Arizona!). I am now told it's a safety feature and can't be shut off. I was told not to wear polarized sunglasses (which I don't have). I've tried several pairs and types. Nothing works. Hyundai has clearly designed what they thought would be a safety feature that is a hazard. You can't drive in glaring sun without eye protection. You can't trust the cruise to remain on if you wear eye protection including prescription sun glasses. There are a lot of complaints online and in their forum about this. Please help me.

The contact owns a 2025 Hyundai Tucson. The contact stated that while driving and attempting to slow down, the Forward Collision Avoidance: Automatic Emergency Braking system activated, bringing the vehicle to a complete stop in the middle of the roadway. The vehicle returned to normal functionality, but the failure became a regular occurrence. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who were unable to duplicate the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, a case was opened, and the contact was referred to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was 1,200.

SERVICE BRAKES

On 2 separate occasions, the forward collision warning system activated. On both occasions I was under control of the vehicle with my foot on the brake approaching a vehicle that had slowed while entering into a round about...I was approximately 10 feet from the car in front going about 6 mph. All of a sudden several warning indicators activated (audible and visual) and then out of nowhere, all four wheels locked and my car came to a skidding/juddering stop. I immediately looked in rear view mirror fearing I was going to get rear-ended. The vehicle in front proceeded to move on and I tried to get myself together and get moving. I was shocked that this had happened as it was totally unnecessary. I was completely in control of the vehicle prior to the activation.

The automatic braking has almost caused me to be rear-ended, and the enraged driver behind me Leaned on his horn and flipped me off. Today, it caused a rear-end collision behind me because of the unwarranted abrupt locking of the brakes. I drove to the dealership and had them turn off this safety feature. It's VERY dangerous!

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS

The Driver Attention Warning is a dangerous feature that can't be turned off. It is constantly going off requiring that I take my eyes off the road to see why it chimed. I am a Disabled Veteran with an eye condition that requires me to wear very dark glasses in bright sunlight. The car is not drivable with my glasses on as the camera can't see my eyes. I was almost involved in a serious accident on I459. As I drove between an 18 wheeler and another SUV a red light on the dash and a message flashed that stated "Regain control of the car". The system slammed on the brakes which caused the car behind me to almost hit me at 70mph. This occurred in heavy traffic at approximately 8:30 AM. I almost lost control of my SUV.

The forward attention warning system uses a camera on the steering column. It goes off constantly while wearing my required glasses. Hyundai nor the dealership will turn off the sensor. There are over 10,000 complaints for this issue and Hyundai will not correct the issue. The system will automatically adjust the speed and brake in the vehicle without the driver. I almost had a wreck yesterday when it shut the car down when the camera couldn’t see my eyeballs while wearing my glasses. Something needs to be done. I’m thinking of filing a lawsuit against Hyundai as a class action. Please advise if you have any suggestions. Thank you

No less than 6 times since leasing this vehicle the forward collision warning / automatic emergency braking has activated when it was not required as slow speed with vehicles behind me almost rear ending me. It is to the point where i no longer have confidence in using these systems and deactivate them when turning the car on. I have set the sensitivity to "Late" to decrease the incidence of this happening, to no avail. I am not the only complaint about this. This vehicle is not safe to use with this feature and should be investigated and a recall issued. Vehicle is going in for service on 5/29 for this issue.

This vehicle has a camera facing the driver mounted on the steering column. If it can't see your eyes clearly it starts sending warnings about pulling over and resting, it shuts down cruise control, doesn't allow it function. Shutting down cruise control at Interstate speeds without the driver expecting it could cause an accident or worse. This camera not functioning correctly for one of the 16 possible reasons listed in the manual is unacceptable. It should have an OFF switch or be removed completely...

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Turn signals way too low in rear of car. Hard to see by others that are close. When have. Bike rack on, it blocks turn signals. Hyundai needs to add turn signals to upper rear brake lights.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

The Driver Attention Warning system goes off very often - every 10-15 minutes. The warning is startling and makes one take their eyes off the road to ascertain the cause of the warning. There is no voice message - just a series of beeps. According to the dealer the DAW cannot be disabled by the owner.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

The vehicle (a NEW 2025 Hyundai Tuscon) suffered a Shifter System Malfunction. A message came up on the electronic dashboard "Shifter System Malfunction - Service Immediately" and the car was immobile. It could not be moved (it was stuck in reverse) nor could it be shifted into neutral to be pushed out of the roadway. THIS WAS AN IMMEDIATE HAZARD. The car needed to be towed to the dealer. Base on internet search, this is a KNOWN and not infrequent issue on Hyundai drive by wire (electronic shifting) vehicles. My car and I were in imminent danger because the car was not mobile. I had just backed out of a driveway and was STUCK in the middle of the road. I am asking that NHTSA investigate this issue and if warranted require HYUNDAI to recall their vehicles to repair and/or replace the shift by wire system that is subject to such unexpected failure that puts vehicles and drivers at risk.

Was driving at night and my lights went off and the radio turned off and right back on a second later. It’s like the system rebooted. Drove fine.

All new Hyundais have a driver assist warning that does not function well and suggests the driver to take a coffee break every 15-20 minutes if it thinks it detects something that is inattentive. This error distracts the driver from the road and requires the driver to manually clear it with pushing buttons. This is an unnecessary distraction. Hyundai should be able to correct this with a software update, but has failed to do so for at least a handful of years.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING

The emergency braking system slams on brakes prematurely when the car in front of me is 4 or more car lengths ahead which is causing the cars behind me to swerve to avoid rear ending me. The safety of the emergency braking is making the car more dangerous to me and other motorists.

I leased a brand new 2025 Hyundai Tucson on March 15, 2025, with fewer than 10 miles on the odometer. Shortly after driving an additional 10 miles, the vehicle’s screen malfunctioned, displaying burn-in and becoming non-functional. This issue significantly affects safety, as it renders the backup camera unusable during operation. The vehicle was first brought in for service on March 17, 2025, but the issue was not resolved. Subsequent service attempts were made on March 20, April 9, and most recently on April 11, 2025. As of today, the problem remains unresolved. The vehicle has been in the service center for approximately 15 days since the date of purchase. In addition to the defective screen, the vehicle failed to start on one occasion, leaving me stranded alone in a parking lot, stuck in accessory mode with the brake locked. The car has also exhibited alignment issues, consistently pulling to the left while driving, which has required two alignments since the purchase date.

Multiple owners of the 2025 Tucson Hybrid Limited AWD have reported the same issue with the vehicle's "Driver Assistance Warning" system. The system constantly beeps and, sometimes, takes control of the vehicle, slowing it down, and forcing the driver to pull over. This happened to my wife and me on our recent roundtrip from Apache Junction, AZ, to Los Angeles. In the middle of jam-packed, six-lane freeways with vehicles traveling at 70 mph or more the Tucson would beep-beep-beep and say "Keep your eyes on the road." But, of course, the driver's eyes were on the road. Then the system would take control and slow the car down to 30 mph or so, creating a terrifying and highly dangerous situation. And this is supposed to be a safey sytem. The system obviously was not properly tested in real-life road situations. Apparently, the height of the driver's eyes, their arm position while holding the wheel, whether they're wearing sunglasses . . . all sorts of factors seem to confuse the system and cause it to act when it should do nothing. I have turned off all the driver assistance warnings possible, but it makes no difference. And other drivers report having the same issues--unwarranted, dangerous reactions by the car that cannot be stopped by turning the driver assistance features off. Hyundai has failed in its duty to properly test its driver assistance features. The most rudimentary road testing would have revealed these issues, but Hyundai has put these vehicles on the market without the appropriate testing. Someone needs to do something about it.

In the middle of jam-packed, six-lane freeways with vehicles traveling at 70 mph or more the Tucson would beep-beep-beep and say "Keep your eyes on the road." But, of course, the driver's eyes were on the road. Then the system would take control and slow the car down to 30 mph or so, creating a terrifying and highly dangerous situation. And this is supposed to be a safey sytem. The system obviously was not properly tested in real-life road situations. Apparently, the height of the driver's eyes, their arm position while holding the wheel, whether they're wearing sunglasses . . . all sorts of factors seem to confuse the system and cause it to act when it should do nothing. I have turned off all the driver assistance warnings possible, but it makes no difference. And other drivers report having the same issues--unwarranted, dangerous reactions by the car that cannot be stopped by turning the driver assistance features off. Hyundai has failed in its duty to properly test its driver assistance features. The most rudimentary road testing would have revealed these issues, but Hyundai has put these vehicles on the market without the appropriate testing. Someone needs to do something about it.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL

The Driver Attention Warning continues to go off shutting the cruise control off. This happens continuously and is a safety issue when driving in traffic and the vehicle suddenly decelerates. This causes traffic behind you to almost reared you because the vehicle decelerates so quickly. Hyundai suggests to move seat, not to wear glasses and other options that in themselves are additional safety concerns as seat positioning and glasses are needed for driving. So far my car has had the sensor located on top of the steering column shimmed up, and wiring harness replaced all to no satisfactory conclusion. Hyundai is aware of the issue, but has no solution to the issue. I’ve been in a loaner for almost 2 months while they string me along looking for a solution. Something needs to be done to fix this safety concern.

This vehicle has a notification "Consider taking a break." It activates every 20-30 minutes, even though I am a safe driver. It is distraction to driving, whith is less safe than the warning itself. I would like for you to contact Hyundai to find a way to disconnect this, for they say it can not be disabled. Diosabling can be done on older models, but not newer models. I have a 2025 Hyundai Tuscon. It is a sfety hazard.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS

Regarding the forward collision warning. This system I feel is honestly scaring me and I am now turning it off whenever I start the car I was driving one day and a car abruptly stopped in front of me for a quick second but started rolling again rather quickly. I was slowing down, I saw the car stopping and before I could even react the car slammed on the breaks and completely locked the wheels up and I came sliding to a stop. It almost caused me to be rear ended which I am glad did not happen but again very close. I am also worried it may detect oncoming traffic and slam on the brakes I don’t like feeling that I’m not in control of the vehicle. This system in particular needs either disabled or looked over again

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

The "consider taking a break" alert keeps alerting me constantly. There is no way to turn if off and it is very distracting. I am concerned it could result in an accident from the constant beeping and alerts.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

In the middle of the screen, a notification to consider taking a break pops up and is very distracting and annoying even during normal driving condition. This feature makes the car less safe because it creates a distraction, especially on long road trips. There is no way to disable or turn the notification off on the vehicle.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS

I am filing a complaint regarding a serious safety malfunction in my 2025 Hyundai Tucson’s forward collision sensor, which caused an accident. I have owned this vehicle for only two weeks, and I believe this issue poses a risk to myself and other drivers. On February 25, 2025, while driving, the car in front of me stopped and made a U-turn. There was no imminent risk of collision, yet my Tucson’s forward collision sensor erroneously activated and engaged the automatic braking system. This caused my vehicle to come to an abrupt stop, resulting in a rear-end collision. I have documented the incident, including photographs, a police report, and insurance documentation, which I can provide upon request. This malfunction is extremely concerning, as a feature designed to prevent accidents instead directly caused one. If this issue exists in other Hyundai Tucson vehicles, it presents a severe hazard for drivers. I urge NHTSA to investigate this as a potential safety defect, determine if other similar complaints exist, and assess whether Hyundai needs to issue a recall or software fix. I also need guidance on whether there are any known remedies or if I should take my vehicle to the dealership for inspection. This issue must be addressed before it leads to more accidents. Please let me know if further information is needed.
