Not very happy
For a 2024 Hyundai Tucson Limited, especially one you’re paying around $525 a month to lease, I completely understand your frustration.
You’re describing a vehicle that drives smoothly but has three problems that shouldn’t be acceptable on a relatively new, top-trim SUV:
* Rear windshield wiper: Has never worked properly.
* Front passenger-side wheel: Makes a strange noise, almost like a loose wire hitting something as the wheel rotates. That deserves inspection because it could involve a brake component, splash shield, or something contacting the tire.
* Navigation and infotainment screen: Constantly glitches, almost as though there’s an electrical connection problem.
And here’s what bothers me most about the dealership’s response: An intermittent problem is still a problem, even if the technician can’t reproduce it during a brief inspection.
The car runs pretty smoothly overall, but unfortunately, it has several issues. The rear windshield wiper has never worked, and there’s a strange noise coming from the front passenger-side wheel that sounds like a loose wire hitting something as the wheel rotates.
On top of that, the infotainment system, including the radio and navigation screen, constantly glitches, almost as if there’s an electrical short.
The frustrating part is that the dealership claims they can’t fix anything unless they can identify or replicate the problem.
This vehicle is only two years old, and it’s the Limited trim, which is supposed to be the top-of-the-line model. When you’re paying a premium price, you expect premium quality and reliability. Unfortunately, my experience has been anything but that. It’s disappointing to pay top dollar for what feels like a mediocre product.
