2025 Hyundai Tucson Hybrid

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

This is my third report for this car, same issue keeps recurring. The FCA locked up the brakes for no valid reason, again. I was driving uphile in a parking garage, there were cars parked on both sides of my driving lane. I entered a left turn while going up the garage. There were cars parked on the right side of the turn lane. As I got into the left turn, my car slammed on the brakes and I came to a complete stop. There were no moving cars or people in front of me. Only parked cars.
