I experienced sudden unintended acceleration which propelled me over a curb, up an embankment, over a boulder and into a fence. I could have been killed or I could have killed others because I had no control of the car. The Hyundai corporation will not acknowledge this. The car was inspected and declared a total loss and is being moved to a location where it can be stored at no cost. There was no warning. Also this exact incident occurred with a Hyundai Kona I owned. That incident occurred on January 8, 2026.

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…

The electrical in my car is slowly failing, causing problems opening 3 out of 4 windows in the vehicle. My car is currently unsafe to drive (I am a mother with a young child and I will not risk their safety). I also fear the acceleration in the vehicle is also defective, as when I'm driving it will revv the engine and shoot the RPM meter up (even when my foot is off thr pedal). I do not believe my vehicle can be repaired at this point and I cannot go without a vehicle any longer. I cannot afford to have it towed to get inspected, and I cannot d…

The door opening mechanism on three doors. Once in the past we were not able to get in or out of the rear passenger door because it would not open from the inside or out even though it was unlocked. Which in case of emergency is a safety hazard if you can’t get out of the car. Now the other rear passenger door is doing the same thing. You cannot open door from the inside or outside, and the drivers door you cannot open from the outside. In my opinion this is a major safety issue and from what I read online many people are having the same issues…

Rear passenger door not opening even with door lock in the unlocked position. Child lock was is not activated. I've seen multiple Hyundai fourms regarding this. With door unable to open, presents a safety risk in an accident if the other doors become unoperable. My Hyundai service department has acknowledged the issue, but will not fix without charging.
