I have a 2017, 2.0 liter Tucson with absolutely no problems. 2 recalls have been performed but no problems so far. Service it on schedule and maintain all the fluids and tire pressures and if you don't beat it to death cause you're a crappy driver your Tucson should last a very long time just like any other car.

That's because you happen to be lucky enough to have a motor that isn't defective. My father had the weird idea to buy one, he did the recalls, does his oil changes at the dealer each 6000 kms, and the engine is consuming oil and the dealers are searching for any reasons not to change it. My father is 79 years old. He has cars since he's 15. It's the first time he have so much issues with a car and a dealer, I won't touch them with a 10ft pole. Look them up, even if you're in denial, the fact don't care. See how many of these have troubles. They don't have lawsuits and payout for anything. It's garbage.

Same here so far nothing wrong , Bought car one year ago did not do any research on the car , Should have Got a one year extension on warrantee from Dealer just because car is to high tech for me to work on 72 yrs old worked on cars as a young man in the 60s & 70s those days are long gone . But so far the car has been good no problems .2.0 motor with regular automatic transmission .

2017 SPORT 1.6T -I’ve heard a lot of bad feedback on the 2016-2020 Tucson and I’m here to say that at my current mileage of 77k it’s been been the best car I’ve ever owned. Better than my old Honda Civic, accord, legacy gt wagon, Volvo wagon, VW bug, just way way better. This is a great solid driving car. Very stable and balanced with best in class handling. The 7 speed dct is an amazing piece of machinery. If you know how to and love to drive, it’s very rewarding. A beast on the highway and can easily get 30mpg using hypermiling techniques. If you know how to feel the transmission and drive in a linear fashion the 7 speed dct is perfect. It likes decisive input. If you are indecisive with the right foot or bash on it at low speeds the transmission protects itself and the clutches will not engage. I have experienced it and it’s usually from switching from bass to brake too fast on unnecessarily at low speeds. If you know how to drive a stick you will understand the dct. I had the radio problem, reset fixed it. There have been a number of recalls. I’ve had recalls on every car. All recalls fixed for free at dealer even if you are not the original owner. I picked up a set of leather seats from a limited at an auto salvage and they’re plug and play. My front passenger seat was manual but the power was already there. New seats plugged right in and now I have a power passenger seat. Hyundai has come a long long way since say my 1990 Excel! Now they are a reliable well built brand that has risen to the top. The transmission options (limited slip differential, 4x4 lock, downhill assist, traction control on/off, manual shifting, sport mode) they incorporate make a real winner when compared to others in the segment. I’m planning on driving this for at least 10 years! Hyundai rules!

My only complaint is the seats seem to be breaking down. I love the heated leather seats- so this could be why they are breaking down prematurely.

This Oct I will have had mine for 3 years. I have had no problems in the only 50kmiles it has, it gets full synthetic oil every 6 months or when dirty, I use Marvel Mystery Oil in the oil and gas. I just got the anti-theft software update. I also changed the transmission fluid at 5 years which happened before the 50k. I will continue to change it every summer now. Also did the rear differential fluid, and will do the front differential when I do the trans fluid. Oil is cheap. Now the Optima and Sportage I had, well they were both burning oil at 50k miles. I suspect the top piston ring getting carboned up due to the PCV system of dumping crap back into the combustion chamber and the short distance between the top of the piston and top ring. This is why the MMO is going into the oil and gas of my Tucson. So far, it's not burning oil. I have a catch can that I will install this summer.
